   Great food and service. However towards the end (around 8.30pm the music started blaring. Not sure why restaurants think it is cool to have night-club levels of music - stick to providing good food and ambience and let people actually hear themselves talk.

   Very good experience overall, however being seated 30 min late eventhough having a reservation and being constantly reminded reservations are being cancelled after 15 minutes grace period prior to the reservation they are not upholding to their own standards. Reception staff was not good enough with their explanation why you can’t be seated at your designated time just a short: „We don’t know what is going upstairs but we don’t have a table at the moment.“ At least some recognition or compensation would have been nice and expected of a restaurant of this calibre.

   Review for Nobu Restaurant ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We recently celebrated our anniversary at Nobu, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish! As we entered, the elegant ambiance enveloped us in a warm and sophisticated vibe, making it the perfect setting for our special evening. The attentive staff greeted us with genuine smiles and ensured we felt celebrated right away. For starters, we indulged in the Black Cod, Tuna Tataki, and Yellowtail was just wonderful. Each dish was a work of art, bursting with fresh flavours. The Black Cod, perfectly marinated and incredibly tender, was a standout with its sweet and savory notes. The Tuna Tataki was fresh and beautifully presented, while the Yellowtail offered a delightful kick that balanced perfectly with its delicate texture. For our main course, we opted for the Squid Pasta full of grilled vegetables and Salmon in Miso. The Squid Pasta was a unique and delicious twist, with a perfect al dente texture and a rich, savory sauce that left us wanting more. The Salmon in Miso was another highlight—cooked to perfection, it melted in our mouths and was infused with a depth of flavor that was simply divine. To end our meal, we couldn't resist the Chocolate Fondant with Matcha Ice Cream. This dessert was the perfect finale—rich, indulgent chocolate paired with the refreshing notes of matcha made for an unforgettable combination. It was the sweetest way to wrap up our celebration! Overall, our anniversary dinner at Nobu was nothing short of magical. The exquisite food, stylish ambiance, and attentive service made for an unforgettable evening. We can't wait to return and create more beautiful memories at this remarkable restaurant! Highly recommend it for anyone looking to celebrate a special occasion!

   Absolutely delicious lunch with my sushi loving daughter. I had the lobster and shrimp salad which was fantastic. She had the salmon nigiri and the fried rice with salmon. We managed dessert too. Service was superb. All in all a wonderful experience.

   Apparently Nobu of old is no more, or maybe it’s just this location. Mediocre food, bad service, rushed out and told our food would be accelerated and come out all at once since we were at the last seating. Ambiance was terrible with loud distracting disco house music, maybe since they were wrapping up. Someone was on speakerphone with their friends and it was obnoxiously loud as we heard it across the restaurant. Staff didn’t care. They started the closing process while we were there. If you go here, you’ll likely be disappointed.
