Bday meals; part 5: my disappointing nobu experience

By Miss Beancurd   Nov 15, 2006

About a year and a half ago, a few of my friends and I lunched at Tribeca’s Nobu.  I fell head over heels in love with the place.  For my birthday this year, I thought I’d recreate the love by going to Nobu 57.  However, I’ve been putting off writing about my experience at Nobu 57 because I was sadly disappointed.  I couldn’t wait to have the black miso cod again after all this time, and after tasting others that don’t quite live up to its name’s connotations in my mind.  When my sister volunteered to take me, I was estastic because I’ve been waiting to check out the new space, and this way, I wouldn’t have to foot the bill.  FULL REVIEW

nobu

By food. new york (and affiliates).   Sep 25, 2006

ah, the famous nobu. after hearing so much about it for many years (there’s something about a restaurant that you hear about before you’ve been to many good restaurants and before you’ve lived in new york that keeps you salivating to go), i finally made reservations and went with my parents (key) this past friday. we tried their omakase (thank you, parents). overall, there were some interesting combinations, some tasty dishes (oysters, peach-jasmine granite palate cleanser, marinated cod of sorts, lobster tempura with a honey-type sauce), and some good pictures of china to look at. still, i have to say that i didn’t think it was as good as morimoto in philadelphia, despite being the same price.

Nobu vs Morimoto - Omakase

By Foodite   Aug 22, 2006

On the previous Morimoto post, commenters anna and Chadzilla inquired about how Morimoto's Omakase compared to Nobu's, so I've created side-by-side comparisons of my recent Omakase at Morimoto versus the Omakase that I had at Nobu back in the Summer of 2004.  It didn't really work to compare each course as they were served sequentially, so instead I'm pairing up the dishes that were most similar to each other.

Nobu

By Hungry Hedonist   Apr 14, 2006

Sorry for the lack of updates. I've been having atrocious weeks at school, with midterms, papers, projects, in conjunction with my aversion to sleep. Last week was HEC, which turned out pretty well. I now know how to discern a good olive oil. I tasted one produced by Fresno State students, which was surprisingly excellent. Ok, onto le food. FULL REVIEW

Planet Kyoto New York City Entry #75 Nobu

By Veal Cheeks   Feb 27, 2006

Why tinker with a sharp formula? A decade ago I ate an astonishing meal at Nobu, Nobu Matsuhisa's haute Japanese TriBeCa joint. The evening was a rare experience that changes how one thinks about the possibility of cuisine. Borrowing from Europe and South America, FULL REVIEW

Nobu

By Gotham Gal   Feb 06, 2006

Nobu has created quite an empire around the world.  10 restaurants in all.  3 in NYC alone.  When Nobu began, there was really nothing quite like it in terms of high end pushing the envelope sushi.  Times has changed.  There are a variety of places in NYC and certainly around the world.  FULL REVIEW

Nobu

By Pabulum   Jan 27, 2006

I went back to Nobu five years after my first time. Nothing has changed except that maybe Leonardo’s posse doesn’t stop by anymore. Their black cod with miso is still very delicious and their yellowtail tartar with caviar still kick my sinuses. Their sushi and sashimi are still worth holding for–they still had four ladies answering the phones during lunch peak next to coat check–but with numerous sushi restaurants in New York City, you can skip Nobu especially if you’re not using your boss’ expense account.

Nobu

I had lunch at Nobu on Wednesday, probably my 4th or 5th time at the restaurant, always for lunch. (Accounts of two past visits can be found here and here.) As I have noted before, if you show up without a reservation at 11:45 or noon, you will invariably be seated. In the past, we’ve always been told that we’d have to be finished by 1:30, or so. No such guidance this week; even when we left, at 2pm, the restaurant was not full. FULL REVIEW

Nobu and Nobu Next Door

By Gotham Gal   Sep 15, 2004

I can't remember exactly when Nobu opened but I believe Nobu Next Door opened up around 5 years ago. Same concept as Nobu but no reservations. FULL REVIEW

Lucky to get in at Nobu!

By Lulu Loves Manhattan   Sep 11, 2004

My colleague, Carmen, returned to London after a 3 month stint in our New York office. She was dying to eat at a nice Japanese restaurant before she left. We had heard about Nobu as it is one of the top-rated restaurants in the city but also knew that it would be impossible to get reservations there. So we decided to pop in to Nobu Next Door where reservations are not needed. But it turned out that they were full and we got incredibly lucky in that Nobu had one table for a walk-in so we grabbed it before it would be gone! FULL REVIEW

Sushi Lunch at Nobu

By New York Journal   Aug 10, 2004

A vendor took me to lunch at Nobu yesterday. Just like the last time, we appeared promptly at the opening time 11:45am and were seated immediately, promising to vacate our table before 1:30pm. FULL REVIEW

Nobu

By New York Journal   May 18, 2004

A vendor invited me out to lunch at Nobu on Friday. That meant he was paying. We had no reservation, but we were waiting by the door when they opened at 11:45am, and we were seated immediately. My host had done this before, so apparently it's a dependable way to get into Nobu without a rez. We only had to promise that we'd vacate our table by 1:30pm. It was my first visit. FULL REVIEW
