we came here in january for the $120pp omakase menu. my expectations were perhaps too high due to nobus reputation, and i was kind of disappointed. our waiter seemed to be absent a lot so water glasses went unfilled and requests unanswered often. the food, when it came, was good but not special. miso black cod is now served at restaurants all over town, so though nobus version was perhaps slightly better, its taste is just too familiar to be special. their citrus wagyu beef was oddly reminiscent of sweet and sour meat. sashimi salad was really good (small slivers of tuna filet in a citrus-sesame sauce). dessert (lychee granita followed by the molten chocolate cake + green tea ice cream bento box) was also good. overall, im glad i went to see what the hypes about, but am not overly excited to go again.
Pros: sashimi salad, dessert bento box
Cons: average service, average food, overhyped
