The Scene
Thanks in part to the fact that Nobu belongs to the Drew Nieporent-Robert De Niro restaurant syndicate, this vaunted sushi house has become a little Hollywood East. There's a palpable anticipation of celebrity sightings from a crowd that's equal parts nouveau riche and seasoned, in-the-know foodie. The sleek, Japanese-accented interior--by star restaurant designer David Rockwell--is an impressively calming space.
The Food
The densely flavored sweet black cod marinated in miso is Nobu's signature item. Another jaw-droppingly good choice is the squid "pasta"--tender pieces of squid and crunchy asparagus, coated with a rich butter and garlic sauce. As one would expect, the sushi and sashimi are decadent. Omakase dinners here are legendary, and easily eclipse Alain Ducasse in price.

My boyfriend surprised me with a romantic birthday dinner here--it definitely lived up to the hype. It is on of those places you feel like you must go to at some point as a New Yorker, but it was a laid-back environment that put the spotlight on great food--many courses of delicious sushi and other entrees. The crab entree is especially memorable. What a treat!

I've been to Nobu twice; once in the Bahamas and then in NYC (I know, you would think I would have done it the other way around). I must say that Nobu is the best sushi I have ever tasted. I've never had sashimi that just melted on my tongue into my belly until I visited Nobu. Their black cod was AMAZING! I can't wait for my next trip there!
