Spring Valley

About the restaurant

Kase strives to bring fresh Japanese fusion omakase style cuisine to Las Vegas. Omakase translates to “I’ll leave it up to you” or in this case the sushi chef. Kase will emulate Omakase style sushi bars from Japan and bring that extraordinary style of meals to Las Vegas. We invite you to join us for lunch or dinner. Reservations are highly recommended. Kasé is not a place to see and be seen. It’s simply a place to enjoy some of the highest quality sushi in Las Vegas.

About the restaurant

Chef Miguel Rivera has been working in the restaurant industry for over 40 years. Subsequently, around 20 of those years have been spent cooking in the well known Italian restaurant IL Mulino NY, previously located inside of Caesars Palace in the forums shop.

Some amazing opportunities I've experienced include being a part of the Vegas UNCORK'D by Bon Appetit for five consecutive years. Previously, IL Mulino NY has been nominated for the titles of Top Ten Italian Restaurants in the country and Best Italian Restaurant in Las Vegas. Also, the American Academy has graciously awarded my cooking with the "Golden Plate Award". My goal for Gondola is to incorporate new flavors of Italian cuisine from the Las Vegas Strip to your local neighborhood. I look forward to honing my skills in the kitchen and expanding the restaurant to provide the community with more Italian novelties.

If you enjoy quality authentic Italian food, this neighborhood hidden gem should be on your menu. You enjoy a quiet and comfortable atmosphere, with friendly and attentive service. All dishes are made with fresh ingredients, and the cost of dining here is represented in what you come for, the food, not the trendy "I was here" image. Family friendly and enjoyable. Gondola remains our go-to upscale restaurant when craving good Italian food. Thank you again for being in the neighborhood.
