  My wife made a reservation for my birthday here. We absolutely loved it! Our server was amazing. He made sure we were well taken care of from start to finish. Everything we ordered was delicious, but the ribeye was a standout. The cocktails and the mocktails were also really good. I highly recommend this place for a special occasion. We’ll definitely be back.

  We had a really great experience here. Our waitress, Day, was wonderful. The drinks were on point, the sashimi was fresh and perfect, and she recommended a really good sake that we loved. The fish tacos were amazing too. We did have an issue with the ceviche and sent it back, but it was handled really well and taken off the bill without any hassle, which we appreciated. Toward the end of the night, as things started slowing down, Joseph came over and chatted with us, which was a nice way to end the evening. Overall, great food, great drinks, and a really enjoyable experience. Day definitely helped make the night a good one, and we’d absolutely come back.

  Dinner at Nobu at 195 Broadway, and this place is seriously impressive. The restaurant is inside the historic AT&T Building, built in 1912—the same building where Alexander Graham Bell made the first transcontinental phone call in 1915. Talk about a location with some serious history. 📞🏛️ The restaurant itself is absolutely beautiful, the staff were incredibly friendly, and the service was excellent. I started with the Wagyu Dumplings… and honestly, these were the best dumplings I’ve ever had. 🥟🔥 Then came the Mini Tacos—crispy gyoza-skin shells filled with tuna, spicy tartare, root vegetable chips, microgreens, and dipping sauce. Crunchy, fresh, spicy, and ridiculously good. 🌮🐟 Then I went classic with Nobu’s Sushi Selection: 8 pieces of chef’s-choice nigiri plus a tuna roll. Shrimp, toro, yellowtail, maguro, whitefish, salmon, kampachi, and ikura. 🍣🥢 Every bite was incredible. Fresh, beautifully presented, and packed with flavor. Between the food, the service, and the stunning architecture, Nobu really knows how to make dinner feel like an experience. And after eating Wagyu, tacos AND a full sushi platter, I can officially confirm one thing: my diet did not make it across the transcontinental phone line. 😂🥟🍣 Nobu understood the assignment. I just understood the menu. 😎

  Amazing location in Downton near the 9/11 memorial. Great ambience and good service. Highly recommend the baby corn, teriyaki chicken, and, of course, the sushi.

  Let me just start off by saying that I absolutely love Nobu. I’ve been to Nobu in California, New York, and Egypt, and I genuinely love going to Nobu. They can honestly take all my money because I don’t mind spending it there. The sushi is amazing, and their food in general is always delicious. For this specific location, I really enjoyed the hospitality from the workers. Everyone was nice, and one thing that really stood out to me was the atmosphere. They had really nice music playing compared to some of the other Nobu locations I’ve been to, and the overall atmosphere felt more lively and fun. As for the food, like I mentioned, I love the food at Nobu. I’ll attach pictures below, but everything we ordered was delicious. Some things were definitely better than others, but overall, I really enjoyed everything we ate. There was one thing, however, that I didn’t really like, and that was how quickly the servers would come to take our plates away. Every time we finished something, they were very quick to come over and take the plate. There was even one plate where we had one piece of sushi left, and the worker came over and tried to take the plate right away. It felt like we had barely finished our food before they were already trying to clear everything. I understand that it can be a good thing for the staff to be attentive and keep the table clean, but personally, I like to take my time and enjoy the moment. When you’re at Nobu, especially considering how much you’re paying, I want to sit there, enjoy the food, and just let the experience marinate a little. Having someone constantly come over to take the plates away so quickly kind of takes away from that experience for me. Overall, though, I really enjoyed this Nobu location. The food was great, the music was good, the atmosphere was nice, and the staff were very welcoming. The only thing that really stuck with me was the plate situation. I feel like I’ll always remember that. Other than that, I had a great time and would definitely come back.
