Japanese-inspired Fare, Upscale Rooftop Atmosphere

Featuring world-renowned celebrity chef Akira Back, Lumi is an energetic and upscale rooftop experience serving innovative Japanese fare and sushi accompanied by handcrafted libations in a vividly unique atmosphere.

Akira Back is the Michelin-starred chef behind Las Vegas' leading Japanese restaurant: Yellowtail in the Bellagio. His namesake restaurants span across the globe, racking acclaim from Beverly Hills to Bangkok. Lumi by Akira Back features his adventurous flavors with Nikkei influences, using local ingredients throughout the menu and influences from around the world for an immersive dining experience.


High energy, high-end, high up - the views of the city pair well with traditional Japanese architecture, modern design elements, and pops of color to create a vividly unique atmosphere. Lumi by Akira Back brings together dining, drinking and socializing with an eclectic-chic space in the heart of the Gaslamp Quarter. Flawlessly blended DJ beats add to the lively atmosphere, setting the vibe for guests to enjoy inventive shareable plates and sake craft cocktails next to rooftop fire pits.

Start the evening with our yellowtail pizza, kanpachi ceviche, or jumbo shrimp tempura. After kicking back Akira's signature sake, revel in fresh sushi rolls with choices like the “Crispy Cream, ” with smoked salmon skin, gobo, avocado, cucumber, lemon soy aioli, and cream cheese; or the “Surf & Turf, ” served with king crab, ny strip, asparagus, avocado, garlic ponzu, and leek miso sauce. For Japanese Whisky lovers, Lumi's bar stars a Toki Japanese Highball machine: yielding ice-cold, lusciously fizzy, perfectly-blended concoctions.
