Nobu London in City of London

I enjoyed my time at Nobu, I definitely feel like it doesn’t compare to Portman Sq but maybe that’s just a personal preference.The Beef Toban Yaki is still a favourite, I didn’t enjoy the apple crumble this time round, the ice cream wasn’t served separately, so by the time I tucked in the crumble was a gloop of milk and apple pieces.Would definitely be going back to Nobu but maybe not this branch in particular.I do feel like the interior could do with a revamp giving its location too.

I must say my first visit to Nobu was highly disappointing and will most definitely be my last. As a big foodie and lover of Japanese food, I had high hopes for the fusion dishes but instead, the food was bland, unimpressive and massively over priced. The sushi at my local has way more flavour and definitely more filling. I took my son for a birthday treat and it was absolutely not worth the price I paid. He had the spicy rib eye steak which looked nicer than it tasted and I had lobster and salmon tacos which was disappointing as it hardly had any seasoning. As it was my sons birthday, the restaurant stuck a candle on a piece of strawberry and wrote happy birthday with icing on a plate. We were then charged for the dessert on that plate. For over £100pp, I expected so much more. I’m actually baffled why it has so many positive reviews. The decor is like that of a cafe in a service station and the food substandard. The only positives were the service, the view and the cocktails. I guess it’s more about the exclusivity and the buzzy atmosphere but sadly not about the food. A very unsatisfying experience.

Brisk service in this very busy and noisy Japanese restaurant. When the staff warm up the service was good and the quality of the food was fine. The QR code was difficult to operate and getting a physical menu was hard work.

Good food, we tried the omakase menu, it was smaller then expected. 6 courses including an overdone chocolate fondant. The service was decent but they should spend some money on sound proofing. We were a party of 6 but we were unable to hear anyone that wasn't sitting right next to us.

Fantastic Asian cuisine and novel drinks! Excellent menu options. Delicious sushi offerings, which are fresh and well prepared. Be sure to make reservations in advance, restaurant was crowded on a week nite! On the pricey side (££££) but worth the splurge!

Fantastic business lunch, with great company.I've heard so much about this restaurant and had hoped to come for some time.The menu is a little daunting for newbies, and the selection is large, but everything we had was exquisite.Only slight gripe was I had to ask for serving spoons with every course as we were sharing various plates and didn't wish to dig in with our chopsticks.Fantastic.

Nobu Nobu Nobu. I thought I was going somewhere completely different. Somewhere a little more refined, but as a good friend called it, ‘it’s like Wagamama for really really rich people’.I guess everyone has an impression of something In their head before they see or experience it and sadly, it really didn’t live up to the hype.And it really was like a Wagamama: noisy and busy, not a bad thing dependent on what you’re looking for. Service was lovely but overstretched. Menus all on mobile, sorry but for the price point it cheapens it. The setting - super dated and basic, the toilets, basically Wagamama.The food itself was great. So if you want good sushi etc go. But not if you don’t want to really PAY for good sushi.If you paid the same elsewhere would you go to say Hakkasan or similar? Absolutely yes. No competition. The whole experience warrants the outlay. Sadly Nobu didn’t for me.So overall good food sure, experience not great.

Never had sushi before so thought I would give it a try! Oh my gosh it was amazing and my mock tail was the best drink I've ever had everything was cooked with such love and care yes it is slightly pricey but there's a reason for it as you can't doubt the quality this place gives. Our server Christina was very attentive to detail explaining everything an amazing asset to the restaurant. We will be returning ❤️

not a big fan of the place. didn’t really have an ambience…maybe i’ve gotten used to all the neon lighting and flower walls at these other emerging eateries. the food was good but portions were minuscule and for me not very good value for money. extravagant dining at extravagant prices. only go if it’s a special occasion. we enjoyed the drinks but they cost a tenner each despite having no alcohol in them! I think our hosts thought we were there to order £300 worth of food between two people as there is apparently an order to ordering food. and you have to select a few dishes. we were on a budget thanks! kept getting told we hadn’t ordered much.

Went to Nobu for the first time for a surprise bday my Mrs put together with 5 of my friends. Considering a lot of us haven't seen each other for over a year, we were excited, chatting and lively. We were told to keep it down because we were "talking too loud" and also that we had 2 hours booking for our table though we'd just only ordered starters. Considering there were many empty tables, we were shocked and weren't happy about these comments but went ahead and ordered our food anyway.My Mrs even called them about the situation but reception was very rude on the phone.Food was nice and tasty and table service was good by the lady that served us but the experience was poor hence my score.
