  I enjoyed my experience having a dinner at Nobu Atlantic City because of the view and the service which was great. The food was not what I expected. Our group of 3 ordered 12 items, three were absolutely great from flavor to plating. 5 wrre just average. 3 were mediocre at best, for example asparagus tempura was one small asparagus in tempura batter and fried, no sauce, no flavor, minimum order two asparagus at $7 each! But worse than all was the chicken with teriyaki sauce, I don’t remember ever having a chicken dish worse than this, dry, absolutely no flavor, no seasoning, it was not edible at all! If I pay $150 per person for dinner, I expect not only great service but great food too!

  Had been here for a corporate dinner with a reservation for 15 people, but they didn’t really try to accommodate us together and eventually split us across two separate tables. We ordered the chef’s special expecting it to be their signature best, but unfortunately it felt “special” only in price, not in taste. It seems like they are relying more on their brand name now and have lost some of the flavor and quality they were once known for. That said, the staff did a good job accommodating special dietary requests, including vegetarian options and allergy considerations, which we appreciated. Overall, the experience was mixed — good service and flexibility, but the food did not live up to expectations.

  Had an incredible birthday dinner here. My girlfriend (now fiancée) suggested Nobu Downtown because I absolutely loved the Vegas location, and she nailed it. The experience has its own distinct feel compared to Vegas, but it was still fantastic. Our host Rinzin was amazing. He made sure we were well taken care of from start to finish, and every one of his menu recommendations was top-notch. Everything we ordered was delicious, but the steak was a standout. I wasn’t drinking alcohol that night (no judgment, please), and the mocktails were genuinely impressive on their own. Highly recommend for a special occasion. We’ll definitely be back.

  The food was ok, not impressive, not bad. I wouldn’t go again because service wasn’t up to par. Our dining time was 90ish min, the waiter brought the check to us without asking us if we are ready for the check. After the check was settled, we chatted for another 30mins which is reasonable given the restaurant was not busy at the time and there were a lot of empty tables. I tried to flag down my server multiple times and he would not look at us. Our cups were empty for a very long time (over 20 mins). We were upset and thirsty as hell from the food. We just left and got ourselves bottled water in a store. I mean seriously, we spend well over $250 a person for this type of service?

  We came here for lunch. Place is around the corner from broadway. They do not have any signs but posted the glass. We had reservations. We were promptly seated and it’s downstairs. The place started filling up with mostly business people. We ordered from the pri fixe menu plus also from the cold apps. Pri fixe is $45. We ordered the oysters, yellowtail w/ jalapeno, lobster tacos as apps. Mains were tenderloin and shrimp. They both come with a side of rice. Dessert was house gelato and mochi ice cream. Apps: oysters tasted fresh and has hint of saltiness. Yellow tail with Jalapeño was good especially with the sauce. Lobster tacos were noting to rave about. One bite and that was it. Mains: Tenderloin was cooked perfectly but did not care for the sauce as it was bland. Mix it with rice. Portions are pretty small. Shrimp with vegetables was cool evenly and good without any msg taste. Dessert: gelato ice cream was good and not too sweet or overpowering. Mochi ice cream was ok. Overall: you can easily drop a dime in this place . We did not order any drinks. Portions are small but we went for lunch to try it out. Service is prompt. Reservations are recommended. For me I do not think, I will come back unless I’m willing to splurge $$
