"Japanese-Peruvian fusion fare soars to unbelievable heights at this off-shoot of the original (and legendary) Nobu. Make no mistake: The scene at Next Door is completely independent of that at its elder sibling, but it's no less evocative...."

"Punctuated by frequent visits from celebrities and the New York elite, Nobu serves food that definitely lives up to its reputation. Try the “new-style sashimi,” lightly cooked with garlic and ginger-flavored olive oil...."

"When Nobu Matsuhisa opened his 57th Street restaurant (backed by folks like Robert De Niro and noted restaurateur Drew Nieporent), it was easily one of the most eagerly anticipated Midtown debuts during the summer of 05. Folks the world over are accustome..."

"The city's publishing world calls a daily meeting around noon, and most days it convenes at Michael's. Count on seeing famous authors, publishers, and actors pushing elegant salads about their plates while they kiss the air above one another's cheeks...."

"There are a total of 7 comparisons, plus 2 additional courses that Morimoto served. parison so I advise you to take it with a grain of salt (or "a great assault" as my friend Jack would often say) mostly because the Nobu Omakase is from over 2 y..."

"Ok, by now I've been to Nobu a bunch of times and have to agree that straight-up sushi/sashimi is about the worst choice one can make from their menu. Also, miso black cod has been duplicated by a lot of places, so if you had it anywhere else, feel free t..."

"However, much of the attitude at this restaurant urgently needs to be dispelled, especially considering the high price of dining. When even the most couth and sophisticated of diners can be treated with disdain and slipshod service by the staff, we are co..."
