    How have I not dined here before! Wow. The seafood flavors were delicious, the service was excellent except for a few misunderstandings which were corrected, the ambiance and seating was nice, I was a little cramped in a seat next to a pillar and could not adjust my seat, bad spot for a table. Plenty of open tables and not sure why they put us in an uncomfortable space, would have been nice to sit in a comfy partial booth. That is my only complaint. The king crab legs were cooked well and seasoned perfectly, the crab cakes were delicious. And they kindly helped us celebrate a birthday! We will definitely be back soon (for a different table location)!

    We had a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner at Nobu, and I was genuinely pleased with the entire experience. The restaurant itself was stunning, with an upscale ambiance that perfectly set the tone for the evening. The food was beautifully crafted and absolutely delicious. Our server, Nam, was outstanding—his extensive knowledge of the menu and excellent recommendations truly elevated our meal. We thoroughly enjoyed everything we ordered from the sashimi to the steak.

    The restaurant is located right on the corner, and the ambience and decor are the first things you notice upon entry. The food is really good and comes out quickly, hot and fresh. I had the calamari and roti massaman. The roti was delicious. The calamari was a bit chewy. As an entree I had the panang curry with tofu, and it was delicious! My dining companion had the massaman curry with chicken and thoroughly enjoyed it as well. I will definitely be back!
