Though only open for dinner four nights a week, securing a reservation at Shaboo is relatively easy — simply call Restaurant Reservations at the Aria or book online at the restaurant’s website. Shaboo is open Thursday to Sunday from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., and is located in an intimate dining room right inside sushi spot Bar Masa. Should you need to cancel, the Four-Star restaurant requests that you give at least a 24 hours’ notice, since there are plenty of other customers who are hoping to snag a table here. Known as one of Las Vegas’ most unique (and expensive) dinner spots, the omakase-style experience offers the freshest seasonal ingredients, with seafood flown in from Japan.

Shaboo is an intimate (albeit pricey) dining experience located inside Bar Masa at the Aria Resort and Casino in Las Vegas. The brainchild of esteemed chef Masa Takaya, Shaboo serves up a tranquil and rare meal — a high-end take on Japanese hot pot cuisine — in a cozy dining room in Bar Masa. Aria Resort and Casino is located within the CityCenter complex at 3730 Las Vegas Blvd. Though dinner here will set you back a pretty penny, it is undoubtedly one of Las Vegas’ most unique dining experiences, so it’s definitely worth trying — particularly if you won a few rounds of blackjack.

Reservations are strongly suggested at Shaboo, given its status as one of the most exclusive and rare dining experiences in Las Vegas and beyond. Should you need to cancel or change your reservation at the Four-Star restaurant, it asks that you provide a minimum of 24 hours’ notice. However, no credit card information is taken at the time of booking, so you won’t be subject to a fee if you forfeit your dinner plans here. Even though it’s one of Sin City’s more pricey dining options, there is no question that it will be one of the most unique you’ve ever experienced on the Strip.

Shaboo is open Thursday to Sunday for dinner from 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. Because of its evening-only hours, the Four-Star Las Vegas restaurant strongly recommends securing a reservation, though walk-ins are not uncommon. An intimate dining room tucked inside sushi spot Bar Masa at the Aria Resort and Casino, Shaboo is, by far, one of the most exclusive meals you’ll enjoy while visiting Sin City. Be warned: Dining here is not cheap. This omakase-style dining experience is brought to Aria Las Vegas by acclaimed chef Masa Takayama, and it takes advantage of seasonal ingredients and fresh seafood flown in from Japan — a much-appreciated quality of the restaurant, but one that comes with a price.

Dinner at Shaboo is exclusive, intimate and elegant, so the Four-Star Las restaurant requests that you dress in business casual attire if you plan on enjoying a one-of-a-kind meal here. Leave the hats, tennis shoes and shorts behind — this is one meal where you’ll want to dress to impress. With menu items like white truffle sunomono, Petrossian caviar and winter truffle ice cream, Shaboo is a culinary treat for the refined foodie. It provides a dining experience unlike any other in Sin City. In fact, this high-end Japanese spot makes it hard to believe you’re actually in a resort and casino on the Las Vegas Strip, and not in a fine dining restaurant on the other side of the world.
