    There were 3 people in our party and one person had Celiac Disease and must eat gluten free. 1.) Our reservation was for 1:00 and we had to wait 20 minutes to be seated. 2.) The staff didn't really seem to understand what food was and wasn't gluten free. Although there were labels describing the item, no reference to gluten free was listed - - but they did reference gluten on the desserts. Why didn't they labels reference gluten on the rest of the buffet items? I asked about each of the items I put on my plate and thankfully before I ate anything, a staff person told me that 2 items on my plate contained gluten - so gave her my full and said I wanted a new plate so I could try the gluten free items. 3.) the plates were hot - apparently right out of the dishwasher - but not a good idea when you're putting cold fish on your plate. 4.) All of the desserts contained gluten but our server did bring me some moshi - which was delicious, but she gave me a sense that it was a bit of an exception to get something other than what was on the dessert station. 5.) A really nice staffer brought over what she described as a special gluten free whiskey dessert - but I had to tell her that whisky is not gluten free In closing, we were disappointed in the overall experience. My 17 year old niece was so excited to try this brunch as she's a huge sushi fan. I would suggest Nobu either clearly stipulate that they do not address or accommodate gluten free or they do a better jot at educating their staff

    From the moment you step into Nobu Chicago, you're immersed in an atmosphere of sophistication and elegance. The service is exceptional, with staff who are humble yet incredibly attentive, making you feel both welcomed and well-cared for. The food is the true star here. The Black Cod Miso is a melt-in-your-mouth masterpiece. The sushi selection, featuring fresh, delicate fish, is nothing short of perfection. The cocktail menu is equally impressive, with the Nobu lychee Martini offering a refreshing twist on a classic. Whether you're here for a special occasion or a night of culinary indulgence, Nobu Chicago delivers an unforgettable dining experience. I look forward to returning in the future.

    The waitress was rude, we over heard her tell the other wait staff that we asked too many questions. It was really disappointing to hear. The food is always excellent here and the service to also usually top notch.
