Ichiza, I wanted to love you, but you just fell a bit short.\n\nI consider agedashi tofu a benchmark dish - if the batter is filmy and stretchy, it's not quite right to me, and if the broth is overly sweet, that's a huge red flag. The batter here was stretchy, and the broth was sweet. So that was already one strike.\n\nI also didn't like any of the raw dishes here, though true izakaya restaurants don't focus as much on that, so it wasn't a huge letdown for me.\n\nThe yakitori was inconsistent. My favorite is usually kawa, but the one here didn't have the char that you need for that one to be truly delicious. The tsukune and okura were good, but the gyutan was rubbery, a big no-no for me.\n\nYellowtail collar tasted good, as did the uni (the only raw seafood dish that worked), though there was a bit of a funky aftertaste with one of the pieces of uni that we got. \n\nService was good, if a little indifferent. Good prices for Vegas, or I'd have given this even lower ratings.
