4. Daikon Vegan Sushi & More
Daikon Vegan Sushi & More has it all. Amazing vegan sushi. Amazing vegan Asian food. Amazing flavors. It may have taken me forever to check them out, but now I regret taking to long to get to Northwest Las Vegas because Daikon is excellent.

5. Blackout (Dining in the Dark)

Like the name suggests, Blackout features an entirely blacked out dining room.
Guided by servers wearing night vision goggles, your other senses are heightened as you go through their coursed, set menu in pitch black. At the end, you can see what the meal you consumed was … but not until then.
Although they don’t market themselves as vegan, the menu is 100 percent vegan.
What to order: a drink to go with your set menu
