Nobu is an experience - theatrical and culinary. The decor is stunning with an Asian rock wall, seats resting on what look like chopsticks; nothing has been spared. It's large and always full despite the horrendously expensive menu. My son and I shared an omikasi special for $150 and left starving. Even ordering ala carte, it's hard to feel you're getting your money's worth. It's truly a special occasion meal for most anyone who's not a mogul.
The food, however, is inventive and intriguing. Nobu is a genius.
Pros: unique cuisine, eventlike quality, people watching
Cons: ultra expensive, hard to get in
