This was an incredible experience. Thankfully, we made reservations a few weeks in advance. The bar itself is small, and we had to wait a bit for our table to be ready, but it was certainly worth the wait. We did the playlist experience which was very intentionally curated. The small bites paired wonderfully with each cocktail. Incredible vibes, and the staff was very personable and knowledgeable! We’re definitely looking forward to returning to try the next playlist curation!

Zoe is #1. She is the reason I return to Nobu DC. I love seeing her and enjoying the conversation, the passionate stories, accepting her recommendations and just embracing her kindness. I’m very blessed and grateful for her friendship. Also I want to recognize Benjamin-he has a lot to offer the world. I hope that he continues to aspire for greatness beyond what the mind can imagine. God’s speed ahead. Thank you all for a great night.
