For a party of two you should easily order 5-6 dishes throughout the course of the meal. ”

The yellow tail sashimi with jalapeno, baby spinach fluke salad, and the Kobe beef (they call it washu) as well as the tempora rock shrimp, oysters wrapped in filo, miso cod, and especially squid pasta are all incredible. ”

Exceptional service, great food, and a lovely experience ”

So, we ordered 2 cold dishes, 3 hot dishes, two sushi rolls and some sushi. ”

Nice place but nothing like the original NOBU, the food is decent and so is the decor. ”
- “
Everything was delicious. ”
- “
Excellent food and service ”

No one in the restarant bothered him, Very cool to see he can just eat his meal at certain places. ”
- “
We ordered the more common NOBU dishes, the jalapeno sashimi tuna, a lobster salad, rock shrimp tempura, miso black cod, and chocolate bento box, and these signature dishes did not disappoint! ”

Love the food and the service. ”

It was good to have tried Nobu, but my quest for great sushi continues in NYC. ”

If you know about Japanese food, you won't like this place. ”
- “
The bartenders know a LOT about the food and I got some great tips on what to try. ”
- “
Secondly, the food was very disappointing. ”
- “
Wonderful food and EXCELLENT cocktails! ”
- “
that being said, both the tuna and salmon sushi were outstanding and the uni (sea urchin) was also surprising if you're into that kind of thing. ”
- “
The food was great with very unique tastes. ”
- “
The menu is amazing - the food is so fresh and perfectly combined to bring out the best flavors. ”
- “
The food was amazing: I recommend the sea bass. ”
- “
Some of the dishes we had were the black cod with miso which was amazing and the rock shrimp tempura which was also very delicious. ”

Not that it was bad, but when the food is okay, the atmosphere a little disappointing and the service nothing special, it doesn't exactly draw me back or make me want to recommend it to friends. ”
- “
great food and great decor ”
- “
and I had sushi dinner as a main dish,the fish was dry and paper thin(not appetiting!) ”
- “
sea bass was excellent and rock shrimp was creative. ”
- “
But generally I can tolerate ordinary food, as long as the service is outstanding. ”
- “
When the sushi arrived (hamachi, a couple of sushi rolls and a few sushi specials), it was quickly apparent that the rice was subpar. ”
- “
great food - lousy hostess ”
- “
Big fan of Nobu downtown, Nobu 57's food is just as amazing except, now there is some what of a bar scene. ”
- “
For a similar price point, and if you wanted really good sushi, Sushi Yasuda might have been a better bet. ”
- “
The sushi was good, the famous miso cod was quite fishy, and I left with a rumbling stomach and an empty wallet. ”
- “
My favorite was the yellowtail and jalapeno sashimi, lobster tacos, and all the sushi rolls. ”
- “
I'm a patron of Sushi Sasabune in LA, which easily has the best sushi you'll ever come by, and my bartender warned me that the sushi isn't what Nobu's known for. ”
- “
Immaculate service & great food! ”
- “
from LA, where sushi restaurants are as plentiful as the strip malls, and many sushi places have the best food to offer. ”
- “
The miso cod was just as good as the other locations and the creamy spicy shrimp were great as always. ”
- “
I've gone to this new trendy spot in the heart of the city with a few of my business clients,hoping to have a great meal and service after a month waiting on the reservation list, well the meal was actually not bad, but the management is horrible and arro ”

don't feel the need to go back often, but it's a nice option when you want to enjoy an upscale meal or impress people looking to eat at a restaurant with the celebrity chef status of Nobu Matsushita. ”
- “
Go for a few cold & hot dishes, 1 entree (always scallops for me) and a dessert. ”

Instead, the rice was dry, with a few hard grains. ”
- “
Every dish was spectacular and the sake we ordered was perfect. ”
- “
The food was good but not Amazing. ”

very disappointing food ”

This is my favorite sushi place in midtown. ”

The atmosphere is increadable and the quality of food is great. ”

Best steak tenderloin i have ever had. ”
- “
The food is outstanding, the management is gracious and the waitstaff is knowledgable and very accomodating. ”

Compared to the original Nobu downtown, this one is more spacious and elegant, but the food is definitely inferior. ”

It's quite the scene, and it's noisy and a bit difficult to talk, but the food and service are most excellent. ”

was there 2 days ago and really the food was very delicious and the service was extra ordinary for a place like that. ”
- “
We ordered a number of dishes, which kept coming one after the other in great order and timing, and I have to say that each one of them was magnificent. ”
- “
The yellowfish with jalapeno (both cold dish and sushi), toro tartare and sashimi salad are all wonderful. ”
- “
still, they will encourage you to order a combination of cold and hot dishes beforehand, so we did. ”
- “
We ordered the signature dishes which were very good. ”
- “
The food is generally outstanding--a couple of dishes struck out, but mostly they were out of the park. ”
- “
But it was definitely worth the wait, b/c the hosts and our server were really courteous, and the food was delicious. ”
- “
for the $150 Omakase where the cheff is supposed to give you his best, the ingredients were average, service was slow, no one asked me how the meal was before just plopping down the check. ”
- “
It was so beautiful, I had the most delicious martini that I ever had. ”
- “
Overall the quality of the food was excellent and I will definitely return. ”
- “
mixologists are incredible, service spectacular, food outstanding. ”
- “
And for the record, I've never had a bad sushi roll there - I don't know what they do differently with their spicy tuna roll, but it's amazing. ”

With the money spent for dinner I should be able to enjoy my tasty morsels in peace. ”

have been to every other Nobu (LA, Miami, Tribeca, Vegas etc.) and the food is always great (interesting and exotic dishes). ”
- “
Great food, great service and great atmosphere. ”
- “
The food: We were surprised by the generous portions of the Creamy Spicy Baby Rock Shrimp, which turned out to be deliciously addictive but then again, what battered fried dish loaded with (orange) mayo wouldn't taste good? ”
- “
food was good, but $85pp later (no alcohol), I could have totally used a hamburger. ”
- “
The Lobster Cevichi which was interesting in a lettuce wrap but was another dish that I didn't really care about. ”
- “
The miso cod is good, the squid and now peas dish is good and the sushi is decent. ”

But this is a factory for wannabes, and I don't wannabe treated the way the rest of the patrons here don't seem to mind--awestruck by pure 100% affectation, and service that wouldn't make it in White Castle (which, actually isn't all that bad). ”
