Any idea where one could dine in a similar style to Jiro's little sushi joint?

Yes

Kabuto, Las Vegas

I visited last time I was in Vegas and was so very glad I did. Good luck getting a reservation though, it's a tough ticket, but if you're able to get in it's very much worth it. The price is right too because it's off Strip, so they don't jack up the prices. For a multi course chef's tasting, a beer and some sake, I got out of there for just under $100 which I thought was impressive. No rolls allowed, this is the real deal folks. It's located in Vegas' newer Chinatown, which is actually quite impressive as far as food. There's also an authentic ramen noodle bar just doors down as well. Tons of excellent "locals" food to choose from as well as awesome seafood and produce markets. It was a welcomed breath of fresh air to get away from the strip.
