This was our first time to Nobu, and my husband and I were blown away. The service was impeccable and we enjoyed a decadent array of dishes chosen by our server and chef; signature Nobu dishes and items we would never have ordered on our own. Everything was a delight! Celebrating my birthday was a special treat at Nobu!

We love coming here!! Logan is our favorite server EVER. He is so attentive and quick and funny! Great time all round. Shige and Robbie always play a part in a great night, whether it’s drinks with the girls or dinner with the group. And last but not least, John, the general manager. Always making sure everybody’s experience is top tier from the moment you walk in.
