   We were greeted with “This is a Pop-up” restaurant with plans to expand into the NOBU we all know. Located in the Eau hotel this “Pop up” restaurant had no ambiance and felt like once they close for dinner the hotel opens up the room the next day to serve breakfast for the guests. Wouldn’t mind paying the NOBU prices if the ambiance matched the other Nobu’s.

   Nobu should notify guests ahead of time that this location is, in essence, a pop up that doesn't have anything design related to the other locations. Given that fact, the prices shouldn't be what they are at the other locations. It truly had no ambiance.

   Amazing dining experience! From the staff to the food & presentation. Our waiter walked us through what the chef recommends and nothing disappointed. We had the baby corn, new style sashimi, rock shrimp tempura, black cod miso, Japanese beef, and miso cappuccino. Delicious!! Definitely worth it. Make sure to book a reservation as it gets busy!

   Hostess was extremely friendly and was able to get us a table at last minute. Manager and all servers were so friendly and helpful. The food was excellent and we thoroughly enjoyed our dinner.

   We’ve been to Nobu’s all over the place and this one was kind of boring. Sushi has become overly trendy so it’s getting harder to compete—no wow factor here. This was overpriced and tucked in the corner of our hotel lobby—-felt like eating in a hotel bar. Menu lacked detailed descriptions so it was kind of a crapshoot on what we ordered. Don’t get me wrong, it was still good—but at $450 for 2 people—-I think they could do better.
