This is my go to bar in all of Vegas. As a whiskey lover this place is nothing short of amazing. The Japanese selection is hands down outstanding and the bartenders are very knowledgeable. They also have an excellent bourbon selection. The setting is simple and classy. Don't sleep on this place it's worth your time and money.

I will need to do more exploring here, for sure. We ended here for one last nightcap after a downtown jaunt. They have the single most impressive list of Japanese whiskeys I have ever seen along with a solid "regular" list of Scotch, bourbon and other spirits. The list is very extensive, but the team is happy to assist you in selecting the right one. It's a cozy, well designed space and run by a team who genuinely cares about the product and broadening folks' horizons. Well worth a visit if you enjoy spirits, but a MUST if you're a whiskey drinker/snob.

Bar Ginza is my happy place. Clean, well-lit, genuinely friendly service, superlative cocktails, excellent TV choices. The highball is not to be missed, but the bee's knees is my favorite.

Downtown has done a ton of work revitalizing and making it a destination of sorts... So when you plan a night for dinner and drinks it is always an option. We decided to grab dinner and bar hop and we ended up hitting Bar Ginza twice in the same night. Why would you ever go to a bar twice in one night you may ask, well that is simple. Quality, quality and quality. The attention and care put into the preparation of the cocktails and what goes into them was stellar. The ice is shipped in from Japan and broke down by hand to the sizes needed. Not only did the cocktails have amazing Japanese ice the cocktails were expertly crafted by Joshua who knocked every cocktail out of the park. Lastly the selection of bourbon on and whiskeys was easily one of the best in Vegas and not only that but the cost for the pours was extremely reasonable. Honestly, we will be back to Bar Ginza and we will also make this one of those must stop spots when we have guests in town.

This is very quaint & demure spot. Very polite and mindful. I'm definitely coming back here. I love that it's not as busy, although we did come on a Thursday night. However, the server was soooo professional, cute and polite and friendly. She recommended drinks to us. We got the Bee's Knees and it was soooo good. We split it into shots. I'm definitely coming back here to hangout with good company! And to try the rest of the drinks!

This unique, upscale Japanese-themed bar is appropriately located in the center of the action at the Arts District. Highball - Gin Rickey is the first item on their cocktail menu, which is good for someone not interested in a syrupy sweet drink. Hence, the alcohol shines through. Paper Plane, by comparison, is full of flavor in favor of booze. Most of the cocktails are currenlty $15 each. The beer menu is composed entirely of imported craft beers from Japan, with Hitachino Nest being the main attraction. The beer prices currently range from $11 to $14 per bottle. The bar is well-lit with the aesthetic vibe of a sushi restaurant, although food is not served here. It was a full house during our visit on a First Friday. The bartenders and server are formally-dressed, and apparently of Japanese descent. This is culturally consistent with the samurai uniform in a display case at the back of the bar.

Fantastic whisky bar in Vegas that you must try! Local owned, excellent service, and even better drinks. I had the Tokyo Sling and my boyfriend who is an old fashion connoisseur said it one of the best he's ever had. Please give this locals spot a try!

I have been hearing about this place for a while and finally had the chance to come and check it out. Fantastic cocktail and a great selecrion of whisky. Chichibu whisky has barely come to the US, but it is a fantastic brand and highly sought after by drinkers and collectors. Large selection of beer, bourbon and scotch. Old rip van winkle and a thomas handy sazerac btac caught my eye as well. Really great prices to be able to taste something very rare! The place is family run and the owners have been in Las Vegas for a long time! I highly recommend stopping in for a drink.

Finally a Japanese inspired whiskey bar at the arts district of Vegas! Found out about this spot from a friend who posted on his socials and I couldn't be any happier to check it out! When we walked in, we were greeted right away and we decided to take a seat at the bar. My boyfriend and I were amazed with the selections of beer and whiskeys. If you're not a whiskey drinker, they also have other alternatives like gin, vodka, etc. if you ever had hitachino beers, they have em there! Along with the sake made from them as well. My boyfriend and I ordered a hitachino ipa to share. I got the Japanese old fashioned and he got the bourbon highball. The bartender told us they make the circular ice in house. Carving and all. Amazing detail to it. We saw the bartender pouring what it appeared to be tastings so we also both decided to order yamazaki 12 year .5oz and nikka aroma .5oz. AMAZING. We both decided that this is our go to spot every time we are at downtown. We loved the service and loved the selection of drinks. The prices were really good too. Great atmosphere. Can't wait to head back already!
