Frommer's Review

Though you'll find plenty of Japanese sushi and noodle bars around Chinatown, there's nothing quite like raw fish with a bit of panache. A visit to Crown Casino Entertainment Complex can be a memorable experience in itself, but stop off here and you'll wish you could remember these tastes forever. The restaurant has contemporary-traditional decor, with a goldfish pond in the center of the main dining room and wonderful views over the city. There are separate teppanyaki grills and screened tatami rooms where you sit on the matted floor. If you can manage grilled freshwater eel, go for it. Otherwise, there's a vast and changing seasonal menu which includes lots of seafood dishes or you can opt for a set menu to take the agony out of choosing. A large selection of different sakes helps digestion.
