- FFrankNew York City •3 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoThis was our first visit to NOBU in NYC. I was very pleasantly surprised by the cooked dishes. I regularly eat either ramen noodles or sushi / sashimi in a Japanese restaurant. The cod dish was exceptional! The beef dish was a close second. Dion, our waiter, was great. He walked us thru the menu and we took all of his suggestions. Very patient and caring. Definitely will go back soon to try more hot dishes.More infoNobu Fifty SevenPrice: Very Expensive• Japanese• Midtown West•4.7

- MMayaVancouver / British Columbia •1 review5.0Dined on Dec 25, 2024I took my Japanese mom to Noz Market for their Christmas Eve special omakase, and it was truly a 10/10 experience. Every course was so carefully considered, the fish was fresh and delicious, and the chef was so kind and lovely to talk to. This meal was one of the best Omakases I’ve ever had, and for the quality and overall experience the price made it even better. Definitely coming back!More infoNoz MarketPrice: Very Expensive• Sushi• Upper East Side•4.6
