The 18 Best Restaurants Worth Leaving the Strip for in Las Vegas | Eater Vegas
"Some of the best Japanese food in the city can be found inside Trattoria Nakamura-Ya. Here, chef Kengo Nakamura makes Tokyo-style wafu pasta. Before coming to the U.S., Nakamura cooked in Italian restaurants in Tokyo, making the style of spaghetti that originated in Japan during the American occupation of the country after World War II. Think Italian-Japanese preparations and ingredients like bruschetta topped with tuna and spicy cod roe, linguine swirled in a sauce of creamy tomato and briny uni, and spaghetti prepared with yolk-cream sauce and pancetta as well as salty seaweed, sweet clams, and aromatic Japanese basil. Know before you go: There is nowhere near enough parking at the plaza where Trattoria Nakamura-Ya is located. If driving, allow an extra 10 minutes to scope out a spot." - Janna Karel
