    I’ve been to a lot of Nobus and I’ve been to this location before on a previous trip. This place was extremely empty, it was Sunday evening but I was still pretty surprised. You’d think the emptiness would at least result in quick and attentive service but you’d be wrong. Took a while before someone even came to greet us and get water, menus. During that time, a couple was allowing their kids to run around the restaurant screaming and climbing on bench seating and chairs at other tables. We had to wait for a while each time we needed our servers attention to order more drinks or sushi. The food was pretty much as expected, not quite as good as other locations but by no means was it bad. I was just pretty shocked by the service.

    Quick and amazing food! Great value and will definitely be back again. We had the seasonal tasting menu and lobster spinach salad. You really get a lot of food to fill you up.

    We had the fall tasting menu and what a bargain at $145. I’ll be dreaming especially of the oyster amuse bouche and the sashimi course. Everything was delicious. The dessert course was a Mont Blanc cappuccino riff with an edible flower. Our wines were superb. We got our first ones under the happy hour pricing, and the Ruinart sparkling rosé was fabulous. Our server, John, was wonderful. His timing and his demeanor were just exceptional.

    The promotional material for the brunch buffet was extremely misleading and the buffet was much smaller and included a lot less than what we were led to believe. I cannot recommend it.

    The atmosphere and service was phenomenal! 5/5 However, the choice of food was okay. The slices of beef was cold and rough to eat. The sushi tasted very plain, and not a lot of options aside from salmon and tuna. If you’re looking for the experience it’s okay, but food wise I do not recommend.
