   Excellent service, thanks Dale! Food was delicious, beautiful and so fun! Thank you chef Jamie for a wonderful dinner to celebrate my mother’s 70th birthday! She couldn’t stop talking about how much she loved the salmon tacos!

   I don't often write glowing reviews. However, this little gem deserves one. The Black Sheep had been on my radar for a couple years before finally making a reservation for January 28, 2023. There are many positive reviews and I always take them with a grain of salt because, in my experience, many reviewers simply do not understand how to judge quality of food, décor and service. That being said, my first impressions were very good. The restaurant is well decorated in black and white theme similar to a Parisian café. Lighting was dim - perfect for dining. Modern music was low, as it should be. The volume of the room was relatively quiet - again, perfect for dining. The menu is short and I appreciate this because it generally indicates a mastery of the few items they offer. To start, we shared the poached peach salad and Spanish octopus. The salad featured a whole wine-poached pear that was slightly sweet, firm and delicious. The greens, walnuts, prosciutto and dressing were tasty. The octopus was sweet and spicy, served with asparagus and ginger sauce - a perfect combination for the dish. My only complaint was that the octopus was overcooked. In my experience, it should be quickly parboiled and then grilled. It seems to have been excessively parboiled. However, the flavors were spot-on. Next, with a glass of Mendoza Malbec, the braised short rib and pork jowl arrived. Both dishes were an absolute pleasure. Succulent and tender, the dishes were bursting with flavor. We finished with a chocolate macadamia ice cream puff and key lime tart. Both were house-made and scrumptious; not too sweet and just the right size. At this point, we were already looking forward to our next visit. The Black Sheep is now near the top of our favorite restaurant list. A special thanks to Moo, our server. He was polite, knowledgeable, professional and concisely described the menu and our dishes. Overall, this was a very special experience. We'll be back soon!

   My wife could not have the salmon skin tacos because they were not gluten free. We the seafood stew and the short rib beef and a dish with rice noodles and vegetable. The food was too spicy which we were not told beforehand, The portions were on the small size. We thought that we would have food to take home but did not because of the small portion sizes.

    Service was excellent. There was a mishap with ny reservation over 6 minths prior. They kept it in their notes and we were immediately brought a glass of prosecco. The food was hit or miss for us (but nothing was bad!), some very good - the Imperial Rolls and the NY steak; the salmon skin tacos were good (I was anticipating more). Aside from the uniqueness of the salmon skin taco, it was basically a sushi taco. And though very creative, the trout needed seasoning though maybe they relied on the sauce to provide more flavor.

    Every single bite was amazingly delicious. We love small bite food, and their starters were out of this world! We were also pleasantly surprised to find they do craft cocktails, which is one of our favorite things. The service was fast and very polite. Love this place!

    Unassuming spot in a strip mall about a 15m drive from the big casinos on The Strip. Elevated take on pan-Asian dishes, including elements from Thai, Vietnamese, Japanese, Chinese, and Korean. Standout items for us included the salmon skin tacos, curry sauce for the Haina chicken, and profiteroles for dessert.

    Black sheep use to be very good. But with there changing menus you have to relearn the menu and like something different but the prices and portions make it hard to love. A side of asparagus was $10 and didn’t come out with my food. Which ended up being cold with hot side of vegetables. It’s just okay. And wouldn’t go back for awhile

    Great food, bar menu need some improvement at this time. I know they change their bar menu pretty often so maybe next time ,,! We felt little rushed from server tho, maybe we were his last table or something ..? We ordered 4 apps so we didn't place dinner order until we were almost done but he kept asking if we are dine with apps or wanna place dinner order while we were still eating them.

    One of the best meals we've had in Vegas in Years. Everything was wonderful, but the salmon skin tacos were exquisite. A perfect mixture of flavor, texture, presentation and experience. The crisp shell, delicious salmon and the final explosion of caviar was perhaps the best thing I've ever tasted.

    Unbelievably good - we consider ourselves one of the Vegas Foodie Groups and while at the restaurant for the second time but this time for a Chef’s tasting menu discussed how we believe The Black Sheep is probably our favorite celebrity Chef spot. No dish or drink has never disappointed. The Korean fusion of spices is Fantastic. Highly recommend this spot.

    This is my second time going to the Black Sheep and it was just as delicious as the first time. The food is so well balanced and yummy. It was my brothers birthday. I think they didn’t realize. Even though I put it on the reservation. It’s ok though. We all had a great meal and a great time. Beautiful end of year meal.

    we're both not into spicy food. unfortunately all of the items we liked in their menu were spiced. in fact it seemed everything had a "kick" to it. it was still tolerable but it lessens the excitement for us due to the level of spicy-ness of all that we ordered. overall the food was good- though too hot for our taste-- bao, tacos, octopus, hamachi, short ribs and at least their dessert was unique enough and tasty too.

    Best meal we've had in Vegas. Worth the trip off the strip. We had the fried chicken special app, the shrimp ceviche, the duck, the short ribs and the lychee ice cream with a profiterole. The ceviche is a lovely balance of tart and sweet. The duck is tender and the short ribs don't need a knife. I can't say enough good things.
