| About: | Nobu New York, the flagship restaurant of Chef Nobu Matsuhisa, has been a pioneer for Japanese cuisine since its opening in 1994. Nobu partnered with restaurateur Drew Nieporent and Oscar-winning actor Robert De Niro to bring his modern Japanese to Tribeca. Nobu draws upon his classical training at sushi bars in Tokyo and his life abroad in Peru, Argentina, and around the world to create a whole new trend in Japanese cuisine. The resulting dishes, including Yellowtail with Jalapeno, Tiradito Nobu Style, Lobster with Wasabi Pepper Sauce, and Black Cod with Miso, make Nobu the innovator of new style Japanese food. The restaurant received three stars from the New York Times and a Michelin star. Nobu New York's design by architect David Rockwell evokes the beauty of the Japanese countryside with its natural textures, birch trees, wood floors and a wall made of river stones. Energy and excitement pulse through the room, creating a surreal effect. |

User Rating: 1 out of 5 starsactually had a very same experience as Hampy.
At best this would be a very, very average sushi place - kind of that one might walk in if in a hurry during lunch in a city never visited before. Tartar appetizer was the only one worth mentioning. Most of the dishes were way too salty, size wise they were okay though. Quality wise, to my astonishment, sushi were really bad - stale very gamy fish, sashimi not much better.
Ambiance - well, it's an eatery and not a chick one either. Very crowded space (try to get one of the booth tables on the window sides). If you end up sitting on the middle it is likely you'll be pumped into a few times by wait stuff or patrons...
Don't think that the stuff was pompous though certainly they could have been more attentive for the price.
Given choices of the really good downtown restaurants in NY this would be certainly not one of the places i'd ever suggest anyone to consider - one star...-

We went to Nobu for lunch chef special. The fish tartar is amazing: my husband had the yellow tail and I had the tunar tartar. Both are equally awesome. The molten chocolate dessert is awesome as well. I rate the Sushi and Shrimp Tempura that we got as being average.

I was impressed with the food. I had only tried sushi one other time and didn't like it. However, everything I had at Nobu was very good. We were well attended to. It was a nice setting in a small restaurant and a good time.
