    We use to be regulars before Covid. Post Covid the food and service was lacking. Well, happy to report they seem to be back! Food was excellent, portions more generous than our last visit, and service was excellent as well. Some comments were: freshest oysters, excellent flounder preparation, best cooked haddock. A wonderful family dinner for birthdays celebration in a nice private room. Great job ALL. We won’t hesitate to return.

    Sean the host was amazing. Valet was great. Perfect service for parties wanting privacy but a nod of the head someone is there immediately to service us. I was invited by a member from the Berlin House who recently moved to Chicago. I am in the suburbs but I am considering membership. Top Notch! Great style and atmosphere.

    Went to celebrate my son’s 25th birthday. Outstanding experience. Sarah our waitress was excellent. I’ve been to nobu many times and i think allowing the waitress to put together the meal is the best way to go. Keeps the price in the range you want and it’s all about the experience. Beverage’s were refilled quickly and plates were removed quickly. Something you would expect for the price and location. I eat here for business regularly but never took the family. I’m very pleased that the experience was on par with my expectations. Will be back with regularity.
