There's never a dull moment at RA Sushi Bar Restaurant. The music is pumping, the mood is upbeat and the atmosphere is as stimulating as a big bite of wasabi. RA is the perfect place to cut loose with friends, toss back a few, and enjoy the best sushi the ocean has to offer. They also have a full menu of Pacific-Rim dishes to satisfy any taste. So no matter how you slice it, it's always more fun in the RA. Just so you know, we don't make reservations so feel free to stop in any time.

Editorial Review for RA Sushi Bar Restaurant – by Citysearch Editors

In Short
Washed in red by overhead lamps and stained woods, the sleek décor bears a hip Asian feel. Expect an Asian fusion menu and artful sushi, including specialty rolls like the Tootsy Maki, Lone Star Roll and lotus-root-topped Viva Las Vegas. Enjoy a specialty cocktail or happy hour in the lounge.

Insider Tips

What to Drink

Try a Tsunami Punch, served with Southern Comfort, amaretto, vodka, cold sake, grenadine and fresh juice. It's served in a 60-ounce fishbowl and is plenty for two.

If you are a stickler for service this may not be your cup of tea. I go frequently to Ra and i have disliked all my service. Slow, rude, and unattentive. I have gone about 12 times in the past 3 months and had many of different people but they wher all the same. The reason i still go their is that I LOVE their food. I just cant help it. No madder how long it takes i still want it. I love all of their rolls (and im picky). I love their appitizers. So i will bear the bad service just so i can eart another Las Vegas Roll.

The place is uber hip and that is an attraction. The staff is smoking hot- guys as well as dolls. The ambience is very cool and you can't help but feel like you are in the place to be. Unfortunately, the service in the place is AWFUL. Great looking servers who can't get anything right, or out on time is a shame. None of the sushi chefs are Japanese, let alone Asian. They work hard and do their best, but it simply is not sushi. The hot foods are bland and over sauced which is a shame as some of the menu items looked good on paper. Did I mention the staff is gorgeous? Well, by this point in your meal you don't care because the experience has travelled downhill at tremendous speed. Not to mention the crowd is pretty hot too. The manager heard several complaints including mine and offered my guest and I free drink coupons and free lunch coupons. Great, except I live in NYC!!! I told him I lived in NYC and that comping was not necessary. He said it was the least he could do?!?! So, the girls at the hotel got free drinks and lunches- I hope lunch service is faster. Go for a drink and appetizer if you have a LOT of time. Avoid it for dinner as the service stinks and its just a bad sushi place.

Pros: Gorgeous staff, nice ambience, location.

Cons: Service, service, service
