  There’s an interesting experience in fine dining, one where you love the food, but everything is immediately colored and biased by the service falling beyond short of expectations. You may make a reservation and a restaurant is not prepared to seat you, but that can be quickly rectified. What cannot be as easily rectified is when you are asked to spend $600-$900 on a meal for two and your server cannot get the basic requests correct. Following that minor reservation issue, a decision may be made not to greet the table or provide menus for 10-15 minutes. This is still fine, but the experience now runs the risk of being unacceptable . When the table is finally greeted and menus are provided; asking only one member of the party their preference for water (still or sparkling) and if they would like lemon for limes seems like an avoidable mistake, but you would be wrong. The true avoidable mistake is doing that and for some reason providing limes, when lemons are requested and failing to notice that the limes are untouched for the following 2 hours. I could continue to regale the unfortunate reader of this review that I’d prefer not to write, but I won’t because the act of catharsis is now complete, but please god provide the cocktail menu you said you’d bring and of the first 4 times you come to the table instead of waiting for the 5th and especially don’t make the situation worse after you’re told that more food than cucumbers and sesame seeds should be provided in the first hour of a tasting menu. Yours truly, Someone who won’t go to this nobu again, which is really meaningless in the grand scheme of things.

  The ambiance is 5 stars! Service was 5 stars but the food was disappointing. The crispy shiitake salad tasted burnt. The short ribs were not very tasty. The Brussels sprouts were good. The unagi was the worst I’ve had and tiny for $11 a piece. Overrated! $200 and I left hungry.

  Not the best sushi in the world. Classic for Nobu. The views are amazing though and the staff very friendly.
