Nobu Matsuhisa—like Cher, Madonna and Sting—is such an icon in popular culture, he needs just one name.
Nobu has come to symbolize what's best about Japanese cuisine in America. Miami's outpost of this popular restaurant group features the Japanese inspired, Latin flavored dishes that have captivated his loyal followers across the country.
Open only for dinner, you must start your meal in the Nobu Lounge where innovations on the tropical infused martini set the stage for a wonderful evening. The omakase, or multi-course chef's choice menu is the most popular way to dine.
For those less adventurous about raw fish, the black cod with miso and the rock shrimp tempura are the stuff of legend.
Service is quick, friendly and helpful should you find yourself puzzled by anything on the menu.
While the dining room feels slightly like the bottom of a very chic swimming pool, have no fear - Nobu is the master of everything that can swim!
Review: This
is a very expensive restaurant. We went during the time of the Super
Bowl and for the 4 of us our ticket was over $1000, however we did all
do the Chef's tasting specialties and had about 7 rounds and three types
of sake. My favorite was the lobster salad. It is absolutely amazing,
however the salad is small and just for that was I believe $75.

Review: If
price didn't matter I would eat at Nobu every night. It is a place to
see and be seen. The price is also high. Despite this, we love it.
Many of the dishes have a high price for very small quantities of food.
The Beef Toban Yaki is great and a good quantity for the price. The
Black Cod is the house specialty and also a good size portion. We also
love the peach belini martini. These are the two favorites. You can't
go wrong with any choice. Reservations for parties of 6 or more. You
better call well in advance.
