Loved the ambiance and the service, they were all absolutely fantastic! Food was really good too, although maybe I was expecting more of a wow factor. We did get some of the traditional dishes and server recommended a few. Sake was delicious and at the end the bill was very very good value for my money. I will definitely be looking for Nobu’s in other cities!

It was a really good experience because the food was excellent as well as the service. The staff is warm and welcoming and our meal was served promptly so it gave us time to relax and enjoy our meal before heading over to the theater with plenty of time. The prices are high and the menu isn’t as extensive as other Katsuya restaurants but it was fine for a special occasion.

This is a Gem in Studio City. Service was outstanding led by Nick and his team. Food quality was excellent and everything that was recommended was delicious. I can't wait to go back and try some other menu items but I am more excited to go and enjoy the relaxing patio next to the fireplace.
