Is 888 Japanese BBQ Worth It? Honest Review & What to Order
888 Japanese BBQ is the valley's all-you-can-eat yakiniku heavyweight — smokeless tabletop grills at Spring Oaks Center on Decatur, nearly nine thousand Yelp reviews deep, running a three-tier AYCE ladder that tops out with actual Kobe and wagyu cuts most à la carte houses charge per-plate prices for.
The tiers do the deciding: Tier A 'Angus' around $29 (fifty-plus dishes), Tier B 'Prime' around $35 — the crowd's consensus sweet spot — and Tier C 'Kobe' around $46, unlocking wagyu brisket, Kobe fatty rib, and the hundred-dish full menu, sushi and appetizers included throughout. Everyone at the table grills; nobody leaves underfed at $30-55 a head.
The system's fine print: no reservations — the Yelp Waitlist is the queue, and peak-hour waits run long — AYCE time limits and leftover fees apply (order in rounds, not avalanches), and the room runs loud, hot, and happily chaotic. Open daily 11:30am to midnight; lunch sessions run a few dollars kinder. It's a car trip off-Strip, and worth it.
Insider tip Join the Yelp Waitlist before leaving the hotel — that's the reservation system — and take Tier B unless wagyu is the specific mission. Order in small rounds: the leftover surcharge punishes ambition, and the meat keeps coming anyway.
