Tetsu was a modern Japanese restaurant conceived by Michelin-starred chef Masa Takayama, Tetsu served a Robatayaki-based menu with an emphasis upon grilled fare. The first location opened in the Aria Resort & Casino on the Las Vegas Strip in 2012, replacing Chef Takayama's Shaboo, which had occupied the space since 2009. [1] In November 2017 a second branch opened in the Tribeca neighborhood of New York City.[2] The New York location featured a casual ground-floor space for a la carte dining, and a separate cellar space named Basement which served fixed-price omakase meals.[3]
In February 2018, it was announced that original Las Vegas location of Tetsu would be closing on April 2 of that year. [4] The NY location closed in Feb 2020.[5]
