    Disappointed food selection. It’s more salad and Belgian waffle that is so dry.

    Host staff was friendly but service was terrible. Brunch buffet had very limited options and was supposed to be refilled however never did get filled back up. Muffins were dense and dry, some sushi & shashimi was good, chicken was the best that they had there. Very expensive brunch for very mediocre food. Was expecting a lot better so overall a disappointing experience

    Worst Christmas dining experience ever. 230 reservations. Not seated till 245. Ordered bottled water and drinks. Went to buffet. There were 2 other couples at same time. Buffet entrees had several empty dished and we nearly stepped on sushi rolls that were on floor. Had to call staff to clean up. Went thru the skimpy buffet line with what was left. After we sat back down they finally replenished and opened up the carving station. The buffet was very small and quality questionable. No wonder it was only $65. Nobu stressed on confirmation email how two hours were allotted per couple. By 345 Nobu turned on lights and began clean up. Barely 1 hour. Check was $241 with tip. Won’t return.

    This was a lovely experience. We went for the brunch buffet which was a good price point. Everything tasted spectacular. The sushi was exceptional quality; no fishy smell or taste. Great selection of food and the ambience was wonderful. Will be returning.

    great food - terrible service. Nobu needs to step up its service if wants to remain a top destination.

    The staff clearing plates continued to interrupt throughout our dinner while we were trying to converse at the table. This is too often mistaken for good service.
