Nobu has come to define the fine dining experience in Japanese cuisine, and its use of innovation in combining flavors continues to raise the bar.Our experience was largely positive, except for slightly sluggish service and some forgettable dishes (vegetable sushi and veggie tempura to name a few).Apart from that, the service was hospitable, and food and drinks were great, and the ambience was exceptional.Overall, i enjoyed my visit to Nobu and look forward to being back again! -

I have been meaning to try Nobu out for a while and tonight was that night. Its a beautiful spot for a date night or special occasion. The food was solid, the cocktails were amazing, and the service was quite good.Nobu Sidecar (fantastic cocktail)-Toro Nigiri (amazing. One of my favorite bites of the night)-Unagi Nigiri (very good. Melts in your mouth)-Yellowtail w/ jalapeño & cilantro (although it had some kick to it and the cilantro flavor was pronounced, it is a very good dish)-Crispy Rice w/ Spicy tuna (spicy tuna spread was great. The crispy rice cubes were ok. I personally think this appetizer is skippable)-Shishito Peppers w/ sea salt (solid appetizer. Id love them blistered a bit more but they were still solid)Nobu Tacos (Tuna & Salmon. These were the perfect bites. The salmon ones were my preferred option)Scallops with spicy garlic (super flavorful!!! Just needs some rice or something to sop up the sauce)Black Miso Cod (solid piece of fish. BADLY needs more of the sauce, instead of the 4 dots they give you. Also does not come with a side of rice or veggies. Just the piece of fish.)Soba-cha Brownie (a solid dessert option. Felt rich but light at the same time. Id get it again)Overall. My experience at Nobu was nice. The food was quite good (with some room for minor improvements). The cocktails were the stars of the show. Thank you! -

Food tasted great (except the wagyu dumplings but my friend thought they were amazing) but the portions are so small. Feels like snacks almost. Fish is comparable to other sushi spots. Expected fish to be better because of the hype. Still good though, except the wagyu tbh. Toro was great! The tuna tartar as well. Yellow tail was great. Eggplant great. Miso soup great. Just wanted bigger portions but I guess you pay for the atmosphere, which was also comparable to other spots -

Went to Nobu for my birthday dinner and ordered the Omasake with wine/sake pairing. All the plates were not only stunning but unbelievably good, I couldnt pick a favorite amongst them. If you are not so much of a drinker I would order just one wine pairing instead of two, for us it was a bit too much alcohol per plate but overall definitely worth it! -

Came here and got lucky to sit at the sushi bar. I got two rolls of the vegetable sushi and tofu new style. Tofu new style was so bad. Just no. The vegetable sushi was so good. It was so fresh. I also got the donuts also very good. The lychee martini was delicious as well. Service was good but a bit slow. The interior is beautiful as well. Such a nice time. -

Made reservations and was pleased. The service was outstanding, and my food was excellent. My dinner picks were nicely flavored lamb, shrimp, sushi, rice, and brocoli. I Look forward to purchasing wearables and visiting their locations in Paris, Milan, and Dubai soon. -

Truly lives up to their reputation, a quality dining experience! I was impressed with every dish, every bite was my favorite bite. Impeccable service. Low lighting ambiance really sets the mood if you’re planning to come for date night. -

Quality dining experience! Another great meal at Nobu! I love the “family style” or encouraged sharing nature of their menu. This way diners have the opportunity to share and try multiple things on the menu (because everything is amazing) The staff are all so energetic and emphasize on the happiness of the customer. The lowlight atmosphere gives it an elegant vibe adding to the overall experience. The crispy rice with spicy tuna and lobster tacos are my absolute favorite dishes! -

Had a wonderful dinner at Nobu over the weekend. The dishes were plated to perfection and the cocktails were also delicious. Highly recommed the oysters, yellowtail jalapeno & the toro tartare for appetizers. For entrees, the black cod miso & the shrimp and lobster dishes were filled with flavor and cooked to perfection. Our server Henry made our dining experience amazing and made sure to read over our reservation notes. We will definitely be back to Nobu very soon. -

Had a late reservation on NYE. I have not been to this Nobu location before and I wasn’t a huge fan of the dining room layout compared to other NY location. We had a group of 4 and ordered Omakase. There were some very enjoyable bites but I was surprised how many I did not like. Several dishes were overly sweet. Sushi, sashimi, urchin were the highlights. Chilean sea bass and the dish with several things together included wagyu and egg (I do not know the dish name) were the low lights. Fish was cooked perfectly but 3 out of 4 of us did not like the flavor. The bowl dish was very sweet and heavy. Very expensive meal for 4 out of 5 food. Service was just okay but I’ll give them a pass considering NYE. -

Fantastic food and wonderful service in a gorgeous setting 😍 I always enjoy visiting the different Nobu locations and though sitting in the dining room looking for celebrities is fun, I love sitting at the bar. And Nobu Downtown has a beautiful bar and lounge area! Its a perfect place to sip and snack while catching up with friends 💚 -

Nobu lives up to its reputation. This place is perfect in every way. The services, atmosphere music with the low light setting and phenomenal food with dessert. If you never had Nobu before, it is a must try at least once to know what a fine dining is. We had the prime steak, sushi and sashimi and to no surprise, it was delicious. They have a wagyu beef dumpling that is out of this world but it’s not on the menu and is exclusive to New York Nobu, so if you stop by, please make sure to order it, you won’t walk away disappointed. -

I had the pleasure of dining at Nobu New York in October with my boyfriend, and we were both thrilled for the opportunity to experience an elevated take on Japanese cuisine. Without question, this was the best Japanese food I have ever tasted.The service was impeccable, and the cold sake was absolutely delightful. Standout dishes included the king crab tempura, the wagyu dumplings (so exquisite they nearly brought a tear to my eye), the hand-rolled baked snow crab, and an assortment of sashimi. Each dish was beautifully prepared and bursting with flavor.We were seated in a cozy, romantic two-person booth that offered a lovely view of the entire restaurant, adding to the ambiance. Our server was attentive and ensured the evening was unforgettable. We can only hope Nobu decides to open a location in Seattle someday so we can relive this extraordinary dining experience closer to home! -

We had an amazing meal at Nobu. The upstairs bar felt a bit unusual on initial entry, but once we got to the main dining room downstairs, we understood the full breadth of what this place was... impressive. Weve had great Japanese food prior, but the unique fusion and presentation of the dishes prepared here was definitely something special. The black miso cod was definitely the standout, perfectly cooked and packed with flavor. But all of the other dishes were also amazing: Toro Tartare with Caviar, Crispy Rice with Spicy Tuna, A5 Wagyu beef - tataki, King Crab Tempura, and the Caviar Tacos were all perfectly cooked and delicious. What also surprised us a bit were the desserts; gor people who are often western/Europe oriented with our dessert preferences, the options here were amazing and equally delicious.The service was also great, very attentive and pleasant all around. We had a bottle of wine for the evening which was kept chilled nearby and glasses filled regularly.The atmosphere of the place as I mentioned above was impressive. Dark and trendy but not overly dark. Was definitely a great people watching place as well, as a wide variety of party types were present. We will definitely be returning. -

Wow , this place was spectacular. The venue was so pretty. I sat at the bar and had a pleasant time with Dia. Very well spoken and knowledgeable bartender. She made a couple of suggestions that were so tasty. Definitely will be back to visit this establishment. The food was so delicious. I had to order takeout as well. Unfortunately I didn’t get a photo of the truffle steak that I ordered, but it was so tender so juicy with a side of rice. -

We loved Nobu! Its definitely Michelin Star quality. Some of the best sushi Ive ever had, and the miso cod was phenomenal. -
Review 19 (2022-06-19 - Rating: 4)
Only reason Im giving it 4 stars is the prices... theyre kind of stupid high. $10 for tea? $15 for a beer? $8 per piece of sushi... just crazy.But the quality of the food is on point, and service is top notch. Do recommend for a special occasion or if you have money to burn. -

Best fine dining i’ve had! Spectacular food and amazing ambience atmosphere. Nobu offers entrees and appetizers besides just sushi and sashimi. I had the crispy rice with tuna, crab tacos, jalapeños scallops, japanese red snapper sashimi, waygu steak, salmon hand rolls. The freshness of the sashimi was really good and the SCALLOPS were to die for! The drinks here are great too. Amazing food I was full and it was delicious. Will definitely be coming back here!! -

If you dont know about Nobu, you should know that it is EXPENSIVE!! Look at the menu before you go.It is definitely fine dining and very much attentive. They quickly removed and replaced any dirty plates in sight. I love attention to detail.The downtown location is located inside of an old bank so there are high ceilings and columns that are eye catching. There is additional seating in the basement. Even with 2 floors of seating this place was full and getting reservations the day of isnt always promised so definitely make reservations.I cant deny that the food was good, but the prices were simply astronomical.I enjoyed my meal and my time here so Id definitely recommend for a special occasion or even better, a business meal that a company is paying for. See the pics that came up to $500 usd... -

After a visit at the WTC Memorial some may decide to end up here. Not much to say other than the Omakaze that we had was an excellent journey. Quick and efficient staff. Expensive? Oh, yes…. but we di not do this every day, right? -

NOBUs tasting menu is an incredible culinary experience that should not be missed. The combination of traditional Japanese dishes and contemporary twists, along with the impeccable presentation and attention to detail, make for a truly unforgettable dining experience. Whether youre a seasoned sushi lover or a newcomer to Japanese cuisine, NOBUs tasting menu is sure to delight and satisfy. -

Fantastic food ... unpretentious and friendly staff. We ate in the lounge with our very rambunctious 3.5 year old. It was between meal services on the weekend, and a few other families with small children were also dining.The staff were walking by and giving my son high-fives. It was so comfortable.Food lived up to to the hype. I’ve wanted to visit here for years, but never got around to it. I regret not discovering this Asian fusion experience sooner. Everything we tried was off the charts good. We plan to return to the lounge and get a dozen tacos and drinks.Toddler Tip: bring you own no-spill cup to transfer their drink to. -

The most exquisite dinning experience we’ve had in NYC! Everything we tried was worth it. Food is delicious, fresh and of the highest quality. The cocktails were amazing - especially the special feature. The service was equally incredible, friendly service, excellent recommendations and very timely delivery of the plates in order, clearing of dishes. Overall a 10/10 experience and highly recommended.Shishito Peppers (11)Yellowtail tuna with Jalapeño(33)Lobster Shiitake Salad with Spicy Lemon Dressing (64)Rock Shrimp Tempura With Creamy Spicy Sauce (33)Cod(46)lobster taco (12)wagyu taco (20)Nobu sidecar (24)Lyer Lier feature cocktail (15)Donuts (18) -

It’s incredible how Nobu continues to reinvent itself to remain as one of New York’s must dine locations. The scene remains vibrant with celebrities and models fluttering around and the food is always elevated and inventive. The staff are so down to earth and easy to work with as well. The entire dining experience is excellent and you feel like you’ve been granted access to the coolest club in the city. An awesome choice for anyone looking to really have fun, be seen as well as see all the beautiful people that New York has to offer. -

Let’s be up front about it, this place will cost 200$ easy.Now that this is out of the way: OH MY this is tasty, beautiful food. Everything is cooked to perfection, the presentation is pretty each time.It was incredible to be enjoying an evening with some beats with a beautiful clientele of a full, fancy, trendy (I would imagine) restaurant.Service was OK but not exceptional considering the price. It’s not enough to take off a star though. I can’t wait to go back. -

Another Nobu, another great meal and experience! We recently dined at Nobu in Atlanta and thought that couldn’t be topped. We were mistaken. Atlanta was great and NY Downtown was also great. Drinks were well made. Service and food were both fantastic. This one has a different vibe than the Nobu Midtown. Not necessarily better, just different. Perhaps a little more elegant. Highly recommend! -

Nobu is the best chain restaurant in the world! It’s expensive but worth it , they source top quality fish and their menu is extensive. The devil killer sake is one of the most reasonable on the sake list and very good. The 57th street location is great as well if you’re in midtown. There seems to be 100 people working here so service has always been great. -

Some of the best fish I’ve had around the city. The dishes are interesting and tasty. The restaurant itself is nice, especially the bar/lounge upstairs. The servers were good. The drawbacks are the price and sometimes small portion sizes. -

Review 33 (2021-08-27 - Rating: 4)
The location is beautiful, but hard to find. Once you go inside it is friendly and eloquent. The food is great especially the A5 Wagyu. It is expensive but worth it. Very tender and almost melts in your mouth. The ribeye is also decent but not the best. a little chewy for my liking. The food isnt very filling so youll have to order multiple items per person or end up leaving hungry. -
Review 34 (2019-08-03 - Rating: 5)
If you’re looking for more of a calm and relaxed environment I’d suggest dining upstairs in the lounge area. If you’re looking for a social, high energy experience, downstairs dining is for you! The experience as a whole was wonderful ! Some of the food portions can be small though most are substantial in size. The food is cooked perfectly, seasoned well, and memorable in my opinion! I’d return here ! -

When it comes to sushi, Nobu is what I pick. Excellent menu and fresh seafood. Expensive but worth every penny. For those who do not know, the door near the restroom used to be an actual vault door at the previously owned bank building. Try it during restaurant week if price point is an issue. -

An oldie, but a goodie! Nobu around the world has never disappointed me. The fish tasted like it just got caught that day (fresh, hint of brininess from the sea that allows the sweetness of the fish to shine theiugh). The miso black cod is always a must to order (one flaw today was the skin was not served crispy today). The nigiri selection was amazing. In Vancouver, its very hard to find bluefin toro on the menu. The ribeye taco was tasty unlike its other selection of bigeye tuna that just lacked seasoning. The desserts were on point and lucky enough to order all 5 on the menu. The chocolate fondant cake served with a rich and decadent matcha ice cream was the best of the 5. Cant wait to come again where ever Nobu/I may be. -

Have been to a different Nobu location before but this one had the most beautiful space I’ve ever seen for a restaurant, especially the upstairs portion. Whole place is gorgeous though.Service was 10/10 as usual with Nobu and most dishes were amazing, but the cost / value is why I’d say 4 stars on the food.Overall a really incredible experience and would definitely return. I’d especially recommend for any business related purposes. -

We had a late and long lunch there. We ordered miso soup, edamame, and several tacos for appetizers. All were very good. The Bento Power box was well worth the $70. The other cut sushi rolls were good and tasty. The teriyaki chicken was beautiful. The Japanese beer selection was interesting and fun. We had a beautiful dessert with nice chocolate. The service was extremely attentive and efficient without being overbearing. The place itself is beautiful downstairs. We enjoyed it immensely. -

I had a wonderful experience at Nobu Downtown. The food was phenomenal, the atmosphere great, and the service was some of the best I’ve had in a while. My wife and I were unsure what to order with so many great options on the menu, but our server guided us through it and was extremely helpful. We ended up having the yellowtail jalapeño, the crispy rise with tuna, toro and scallion sushi roll, shrimp and lobster with spicy lemon sauce, and black cod with miso. We also had the buttermilk doughnuts for dessert. Not a single one of the courses we had disappointed. We will definitely be back soon! Would highly recommend. -

If you are looking for fancy and delicious, than look no further. Nobu will leave you baffled with its atmosphere, food, and customer service all a 10/10. Starting with yellowtail, whitefish, and salmon so much complexity in a dish that looks simple just one bite and you are in bliss. The black cod which was the main event will leave you speechless one bite and its like youve been punched in the face with flavor. The service was on point it doesnt get better than this. -

I have been to NOBU before (the one in the Tribeca area) and loved it. I found that the lunch 3- courses of $35 special was a great value for your money. Also had two of the drink specials, the Lychee Martini and the margarita (with passion fruit juice and a little kick) and they were fantastic. The service by Alex at the bar was very good too. -

Service was attentive, food was very Americanized and for the price was a bit disappointing (all in for lunch was close to $90/person, and did not order any alcohol) due to the price.

I recently had the privilege of attending a private event at NUBU, and the experience was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment I arrived, it was clear that this establishment is in a league of its own, blending impeccable service with a sophisticated ambiance and culinary excellence. The private event space was elegantly designed, offering an intimate yet spacious setting that was perfect for our gathering. The attention to detail in the décor was evident, with tasteful floral arrangements, soft lighting, and beautifully set tables that created a warm and inviting atmosphere. The evening began with a selection of exquisite hors doeuvres that showcased the chef’s creativity and skill. Each bite was a delightful fusion of flavors, setting high expectations for the meal to come. As we were seated, the attentive staff ensured that every guest felt welcome and well-cared-for, providing impeccable service throughout the night.In conclusion, NOBU exceeded all expectations, delivering a private event experience that was as luxurious as it was memorable. The combination of exquisite cuisine, flawless service, and breathtaking views makes this restaurant a top choice for any special occasion. I highly recommend [Your Chosen Restaurant Name] for anyone looking to create unforgettable memories in a truly remarkable setting. -

Let’s be up front about it, this place will cost half agrand for a party of 7 easy.OMG this is tasty, beautiful food. Everything is cooked to perfection, the presentation is pretty each time. The service is exceptional. One thing I did not know before going is its Tapas style so basically we ordered more and pretty much had to pick up something on the street. 🤣Picture is a dish for about $30 -

We had an extraordinarily exciting evening today. Despite being very late for our reservation, the team made every effort to accommodate us perfectly. Our host June was incredibly patient, engaging, and helpful. She handled our allergies with such warmth and care that it became a pleasant conversation and helpful consultation, making the entire experience enjoyable. We even spoke with the manager to express our gratitude, and he also took the time to engage with us warmly. Many thanks again to the whole team – you are wonderful and a true role model! -

This place came highly recommended to me by friends that know I love sushi! Again, this was my first time in NYC so of course I had to try it.I was reminded by it in the afternoon and realized that I hadn’t made reservations yet. I got online looking for a number to dial to call in reservations for the next day after our broadway show, lo and behold, they allow you to make reservations right from the google screen! So I tried to make reservations for that evening. I was able to do so and quickly set up a via to get me there within the hour (it was 8:00 and reservations were for 9:00). Via got me there within 40 minutes and I checked in with the very friendly hostesses. They offered to take our Jackets but we were okay with keeping them on...our table wasn’t ready as expected since we were 20 minutes early so we were seated at the bar. There the friendly bartenders whipped up a few drinks for us and got us to try some new sake, delicious by the way. I wish I remembered the bartenders names but I don’t. Extremely friendly and very informative. We then got seated at about 9:00 and were taken to the table, the table, although a little snug and close to the next table, (the back bench area with pillows) was still comfortable and private enough for my wife and I to have our own conversation. As the food rolled out we fell in love with every dish that came out. I couldn’t say anything bad about this place! The atmosphere was awesome, the live dj, the bartenders, the waitresses, everyone was on top of their game and we loved it. My recommendations is the sashimi yellow tail and must try the “diablo” sake (I’m guessing at this point as to the name of the sake).All in all, it was a great night and I would definitely go back! 🙌 -

A solid 4.5 stars. Dinner on an icy cold breezy Monday night. The tiny Nobu sign is hard to find in the dark on the south side of this classic building. The top floor of this 2-storey gem was closed, so head downstairs.My first time to a Nobu, despite the fact that they are in like 20 countries!Tables real close together, decor excellent, ambiance good, service impeccable, presentation excellent.Obligatory Yellowtail Jalapeño did not disappoint, dont be shy to dip it in that lovely sauce.The sashimu combo was super fresh, the miso cod probably the best I have EVER tasted, and the ponzu brussels were, well, similar to most good places around.Well be back for more. Come hungry! Budget upwards of $275 for two. -

Review 121 (2023-09-15 - Rating: 4)
My first time dining in Nobu and it was mostly great! The bench seats arent the most comfortable and left me feeling slightly too short for the table. The service was great and the servers were pretty attentive. My table decided to order a bunch of things off the menu to share, and they came out as they were ready, which took a bit of time understandably. I definitely wouldnt recommend coming here when youre tight on time though. I wish I had known that the sushi we ordered came with a bit of Wasabi hidden under the fish, seeing I have a low tolerance for spicy. Or maybe been asked if we wanted with or without Wasabi added to each piece. Not a major issue as the food was still pretty darn good and quality was great. The drinks were very expensive but it is nobu after all and they tasted good. We also ordered some desserts and I was pretty blown away by the mini doughnuts. The entrance is annoyingly difficult to find if you rely on Google maps since the sign for nobu is not as big or visible as I hoped it would be and Google maps just tells you that nobu itself is [somewhere on the block]. -

Absolutely amazing. Haven’t been in about 15 years so this was my first experience in the new location. Classy yet comfortable, food was perfection, staff was very welcoming. My husband and I had the Omakase. My only suggestion is to come up with a better way to tell us what we’re being served. It’s chefs choice so you don’t know what you’re getting. The wait staff tells you but it’s a bit loud and also you’re served a couple different items at a time, so it’s hard to grasp. But, what an absolute perfect experience. Also $$$$ but you get what you pay for. -

The sushi plates were okay. the espresso martini ✨ was so yummy.The service was great - the only issue I noticed is they seemed rushing my group to finish meals quickly by asking to finish food to take the plates.

As a New Yorker, I wish I could say this was not my first time at Nobu. Spectacular place to go and with friends. It is certainly a very impressive venue.Parking can be found on Barclay street one block away otherwise, dont expect to find any street parking as this is in center of One World Trade center/Wall Street area.While our appetizers and entrees were delicious and fresh, the Spicy tuna with fried cubes of rice, could have been bigger for $32. It literally was about 2 tablespoons if at all.The beef was excellent and server was very mindful and great. -

An ultra-refined, upscale, and gourmet experience. Nobu is one of the best Japanese Peruvian restaurants in New York City, and I would also say in the world. The atmosphere is beautiful, the service is superior, and the food is out of this world. Once you are there, you can have the Omakase experience, or you can ask the chef to set a menu based on your preference. Their signature cocktails are tasty, and do not miss their edamame and truffle tuna appetizers. -

Nobu downtown offers indoor and outdoor dining. Went on a Monday night in late September and they still had a lot of business so customers keep coming back. We decided to dine outdoors this time and overall was a great experience. This is my third time dining at Nobu, always amazing, delicious food and good vibes. Shout out to Jun, our waitress for the evening and the wait staff from the hostess to the servers all went above and beyond with accommodations and made our experience that much better. Felt very safe dining and the restaurant followed all the protocols.We ordered the rock shrimp, black cod, rib eye, baby corn etc. all the dishes were absolutely superb and yes we actually came out feeling full and satisfied as always!

This is another iconic NYC restaurant that firmly hold it place on the social and restaurant scene. It has very impressive decor with modernized high ceiling 30s atmosphere on the ground floor and more private low key Asian style on the basement floor. It is Asian fusion cuisine the same quality as you get in Zuma and other famous restaurants of this type. This place is not cheap, however we were surprised to spend only $1200 on 7 people including drinks. I will definitely come back to this place. -

That was here for us and I am picky as hell!!We started with drinks, the sidecar and lychee. Totally on point! Next were the apps: crispy rice with spicy tuna, yellowtail with jalapeño, wagyu dumplings. WOW- the wagyu dumplings, a special that night, were mind-blowing!For our mains, we had the ribeye, miso cod and veggie tempura. The ribeye and miso cod were another level. We ended with the mochi.Service was excellent. I would love a vibe that was a bit sexier, louder music, but nonetheless, it was a fun night and vibe. Highly recommend!! -

We chose the downtown location. I would have given 5 stars since the drinks and food were very good. I guess I expected a more polished service. Although the service was good coming in with the high expectation of Nobu I felt that the service was average at best and they weren’t very refined.The food was very good. I found the menu confusing but after going there this first time I would go back again and would be more prepared. We ordered multiple appetizers with only 1 main dish and shared. On the bright side I was expecting a much larger bill but that is partially due to the server under selling. Where if I made my own choices without his suggestions the bill would be much higher. -

We ended up at Nobu after deliberating over several restaurants while in the city this past weekend. We were pleased with the overall experience. It’s a Japanese/Peruvian fusion restaurant as per the server we had. This is our third attempt to go to this restaurant after canceling our Vegas reservation due to some bad reviews and the NY reservation due to other obligations. We had a warm welcome and were seated downstairs which felt more like a fancy lounge. The ambiance is relaxing but we did experience some noisy diners nearby toward the end of our evening. Our server was informative and seem to know the menu well. He made some decent recommendations. Service was a bit lacking given we had to look for him a couple times and he never returned with an item we requested. The bus person had to bring the item. The bus person was hovering to take our plates while we were still eating. It must have been real busy. The Cocktail (believe it was called a sidecar) was on the lighter side lacking alcohol. We ordered the crispy rice tuna, miso soup, cod, sea bass, chicken skewers and edamame with Peruvian corn and a few sushi rolls. Everything was fair in taste but nothing that impressed. I enjoyed the scallop rolls the most of the sushi rolls. Both hot fish entrees were tasty. The crispy rice tuna had more creativity in appearance than taste. Our expectation on the edamame and corn as well as the chicken skewers was a bit sub-par. I don’t see the value in this restaurant given the pricey cost vs the food. I guess you’re paying for the name and location. We will try the Nobu in mid-town next time to see if the restaurant is worth repeat visits. -

I have been to several Nobu restaurants here, uptown, Miami Beach, Tokyo, and the original in Malibu. The quality and consistency are maintained in each one. The Rock Shrimp Tempura is simply my favorite dish in the world. The Miso Cod in Butter Lettuce used to be a secret, glad its on the regular menu now. Add some great Sake, extra sushi (which you order after) and a Bento Box for dessert and you will have a perfect meal. Expensive, but so worth it. I once took a first date here and the bill came to over three bills. Then again, we had a LOT of Sake and the date ended up lasting three days so again, well worth it. -
