“ Located inside the Encore resort - This is the best Singapore noodles I have ever had! And lo mein- my kids loved this place. My daughter had the salmon sashimi and California roll and both were delicious! I dont have pictures because we ate it too fast- lol. I think that says a lot about how good it was. ”
“ Outstanding sushi! I got the mango salmon roll and it was YUMMY! Nigori sake in a carafe was great too! Didn't have to wait long for a seat on a monday night. No reservations. ”
“ Let's get this part out of the way: the food was absolutely delicious. And the items I didn't get SMELLED delicious. Onto the best part: My server was so good, kind, and lovely. My day started a little crappy and once I was seated, Andrew lit up my day. I'm a bachelorette and I really needed it. The service was sublime, the place is pretty and super comfy. I had a FABULOUS lunch here. I'd post pictures but I ate it all so fast. ”
“ You know, honestly this place was pretty dang good. Nothing super super special or unique, but some good, solid Chinese food. We got a few different items such as bao, dumplings, pho, noodles, and sushi. Everything was quite delicious! I don't think the was super top quality but it was pretty dang good! Service was okay and I loved the ambiance of this place. Right in the hotel of the Wynn! It was great. ”
“ Wazuzu at Wynn: A Vibrant Late-Night Dining Experience After watching Awakening at the Wynn, we were famished and decided to stop by Wazuzu for a late dinner. With its vibrant décor of red, golds, and crystals, the ambiance was a visual feast. The highlight was the stunning crystal dragon, reminiscent of the one we saw at the Wynn in Macau--a real treat to dine under such a dazzling centerpiece. We were seated immediately, which was a big plus, especially after a show. The service was impeccable--our server was attentive, checked in consistently without hovering, and handled everything with professionalism. The cocktails were light and fun: we tried the Lucky Cat and Spirit Animal, while others opted for wines, all of which complemented the meal nicely. The food was solid, though not particularly standout overall. The edamame dumplings were surprisingly fresh, and the Brussels sprouts stole the show--unexpectedly delicious and packed with flavor. The ramen satisfied my craving, making this a great option for those looking for a comforting late-night bite without leaving the hotel. Wazuzu is a good choice for its convenient location, stunning setting, and reliable service. While the food didn't blow us away, the experience as a whole earns a solid 4 stars. We'd return, especially for the Brussels sprouts and the ambiance! ”
“ Lunch on a whim brought us to Wazuzu. ATMOSPHERE: Located in Encore, the quaint eatery has a striking glass or crystal dragon perched on the back wall. Seating is very limited so wait times can be long. Views are of the casino. RESERVATIONS: Not sure if they're taken but we had about a 75 minute wait for lunch on NYE without a reservation. MENU: Sushi, Chinese/Thai/Japanese selections. Full bar including sake. FOOD: Black Truffle Egg Drop Soup Big enough for two to share. Delicately savory and fairly hearty bowl of scrambled-in egg, fresh truffles, bamboo shoots and wood ear mushrooms. Pan Fried Soup Dumplings (3 pcs.) Not as soupy as others we've had but still very good. Thicker wrapper, moist pork filling and a little soup inside that will squirt out if you're not careful. Beef & Broccoli Tender meat and firm broccoli finished in a dark, savory and garlicky sauce. Tasty, traditional recipe. Salt and Pepper Prawns Ingredient simplicity makes this dish shine. Fairly crisp batter and perfectly seasoned. Cantonese Chicken Lo Mein Big portion good enough for four to share. Flavoring was mainstream and chicken chunks were moist. Pricey for a noodle dish. SERVICE: Host service was efficient. Texting system worked well and they even phoned when the table was ready. Waitstaff were professional. Food delivery took a while. OVERALL: Intimate selection of popular Chinese dishes. If you want the real deal authentic stuff, look outside of The Strip. ”
“ This restaurant doesn't do reservations, they have a text message system of telling you when your table is ready. It is also the closest restaurant to the poker rooms, so it can get busy. Went for a late dinner, so there was no wait. Service was good. As with pretty much any casino restaurant, the prices are much higher for items you can get in Chinatown or any other good local restaurant. The trade off is the convenience and maybe the quality and presentation. We split a bowl of tonkstsu ramen. Then some nigiri and hand roll sushi. The nigiri was tasty bigger portions of fish than at typical AYCE places. The premium hand rolls were excellent. We even decided to have chocolate bar for dessert. A good meal for sure... we always choose Wazuzu when we're at Encore or Wynn. ”
“ The restaurant is located just off the casino floor at the Encore. They use a SMS text system to message you when your table is ready. Having dinner here with the wife. Service is very good here from the hostess to the waiters and busboys. They are very attentive and knowledgeable about the dishes. The decor had a nice modern Asian fusion vibe. Food was very good. We had the Cantonese Sea Bass, Thai Basil Beef Stir Fry and the Choy sum vegetables. The sea bass was steamed and had a very nice buttery flavor. We ordered the Thai Basil Beef Str Fry to be medium spicy but it wasn't spicy at all. Flavor was good but it had no spice. Lastly the Choy Sum vegetables were stir fried lightly with a nice garlic oil and were nicely crunchy. Overall a solid four star dinner! ”
“ Food: * Salmon sushi: absolutely yummy! We couldn't have eaten this up faster. Paired with the ginger slices and homemade soy sauce, absolutely divine! * Pork Belly: my husband got this dish and OH MY GOD! It is absolutely delicious!!! it doesn't look like a lot of food but it's enough, especially if you get an appetizer. I'm not a pork person but even I have to admit this was so yummy! * Panang Curry: I got the chicken addition. I love curry so I'm going to be biased when I say it was so good! This one was different because the curry I've had in the past has eggplant only but this had bamboo sticks, bell peppers, onions. It was beyond delicious. * Lychee Drink: I don't drink so I appreciate when places have mocktails. This was really yummy. Service: Our waiter was really nice! He was attentive and very kind. He made sure our things came out expeditiously but maintaining quality. Ambiance: we went around dinner time and it was not too crowded (we were in Vegas around beginning of Dec). It was nice and chill atmosphere. ”
“ I come to eat here EVERY SINGLE TIME I stay in the Wynn or Encore. I consider it my treat. Honestly as in this casino in general you may see a star or too just have to look around. That being said -- it is a chinese restaurant and I adore it. Likely because I adore the service here... Winnie is my absolutely favorite servers but a lot are good. A LOT of the dishes have fish sauce. Just be aware. Even the soy sauce is house made with fish sauce. The soup dumplings were amazing. Bite into them with the flavor that spills and almost pops out... so good! The Crispy Orange Beef is awesome. I keep trying other things and end up always coming back to this crisp but tender amazingly seasoned beef in an orange sauce. I just cannot get enough of it. I don't get it with rice but I could see how others would like it. Drunken Noodles are okay. Definitely had to add extra spice. Pretty average so I will keep to my Thai places back home for this one. The raspberry lychee sorbet is out of this world. Winny is a great server like super fantastic. Lorena is a great server super fantastic as well... very helpful. Definitely give this place a shot. Very clean. Very appropriate and you can still watch the casino activity while you eat! ”
