Loved It!!!

by TRepp at Citysearch

I am disheartened that there are so many folks that have written reviews that did not receive the same kind of service we did at the Yellowtail.

Upon our arrival we were seated right away, and were given a lovely table for 4 with a beautiful view of the famous fountains.

Wait service was outstanding and "good-looking" might I add.

Food was amazing, really some of the very best sushi I have ever had!

After dinner we ventured out onto the balcony of the restaurant and watch the fountains some more. The view from the balcony is so much better then the view from the street "even if you’re right up front".

I recommend Yellowtail to all my friends that go to Vegas and will continue to do so. I have not yet heard from anyone I have recommended that they had anything but the best experience as I did.

• Pros: Spicy popping crab

Unpolite and bad manners

by Restaurant at Citysearch

We had a party of 6 making a reservation to this restaurant one hour before arrival. After we came on time the table were not set and we were told to wait for at least 20 min. A few couple who did not make any reservation were given the priority of a sit. We went straight in to the table and just started to sit, when a man (seemed to be an asian origin) came to us and start to hassle us with how we were out of conduct, because the table weren't set. We were surprise to see that the restaurant was quite empty and the service was that slow. Added to our disappointment was when this man start to tell us that it was their procedure to set the table before we could come in, then he mentioned a word that was really out of context of customer service. "Please leave if you do not want to follow our procedure", this word came out from the man later discovered to be named "Young Lee", we do not know if he is a manager or the owner, no matter what status he is, this is definitely not an educated manner and will definitely not an understandable personnel. Within the party were 2 young kids aged between 7 and 10, and they were waiting for a awhile to be seated. Not long after the straight word from this man, we packed our stuff and left the table... This is really not a food review we had not even tasted the food, we really given a taste of bad manners and service from a such beautiful restaurant... Pitiful that it was not well managed...

• Pros: Nice beautiful restaurant
• Cons: Awful service, badly managed

Worst service of my life!

by Olivka at Citysearch

Atrocious service!! Forgetful waitress, one waiter spilled soup on me while delivering the dish, another was extremely belligerent and rude... The entire staff needed significant improvement. I spoke to the manager twice, who not only failed to resolve the problem and charged the full price of the meal, but informed the wait staff of my frustration during my meal which resulted in worse service. The food that I tasted was decent, but I was unable to finish it due to the way the service affected my mood.

• Pros: People watching
• Cons: Terrible service and attitudes

Great atmosphere and sake selection

by jharrier at Citysearch

The atmosphere in the restaurant is very modern and has gorgeous views of the Bellagio fountains. I was impressed with the selection of cold sakes, however, hot sake fans will have to look elsewhere. My wife enjoyed her pomegranate martini.

They also offer some very interesting sushi rolls. You've got to try the crab and asparagus roll with pop rocks!

• Pros: Large selection of cold sake
• Cons: Expensive
