Nobu Chicago offers a refined dining experience, where a stunning ambiance and attentive service elevate every moment. Their brunch menu is a true highlight, featuring a well-balanced selection of exquisite dishes and expertly crafted cocktails. The Wagyu sliders are irresistibly juicy and bursting with flavor in every bite. The crispy rice with spicy tuna is a standout, with delicately crisped rice that enhances the freshness of the tuna without overpowering it. The spicy salmon maki roll is flawlessly executed, delivering just the right balance of heat and freshness. To round out the meal on a sweet note, the almond croissants are simply exceptional—flaky, buttery, and a perfect indulgence for brunch. Nobu Chicago consistently delivers a high-end sushi experience, making it a must-visit for those seeking an elevated brunch with Japanese flair. Given Chicago’s long, chilly seasons, a dedicated coat check or cloakroom would be a welcome addition, ensuring guests can fully enjoy their dining experience in comfort.

Our experience at Nobu was AMAZING! The service was fast and our waitress, Silvia, made sure we didn’t want or need for anything. The food was phenomenal and it came out fresh and very quickly. I give Nobu a 10/10.

Charged extra. Service was poor. Waiter refused to come by unless I flagged them down. Ordered a “green tea” and proceeded to serve me matcha. I hate matcha. When I asked he tried to tell me I was wrong and it wasn’t matcha

Sux of us went for Saturday’s buffet and it was real good! Wish it had a few more items, but it was still good and would go again. There were 2 types of salads, 3 different rolls, a few sashimi variation, wagyu egg nobugriddle (amazing)! Ceviche and tiny sauteed black cod mini lettuce wraps - all worth going for a second round! Lets not forget their steaks and potatoes! Also a very tasty dessert table! Yes, go and enjoy!!

Indulgent, and we’re very glad to have treated ourselves. We selected omakase, and only had to decide what to drink. The evening proceeded smoothly, and we left three hours later, like the cat that caught the mouse.

Food was good, but dear lord is the omakase slow!!!! 30 minutes between tte last two courses with no reason at all. Finally left our 5p Sunday evening reservation at 7:30- and that’s only because I had to literally wave down the server. Have had plenty of omakase- will not be eating this again at Nobu.
