    When booking with OpenTable, we weren't able to get a reservation until 815. We are from Eastern standard time so we're quite hungry. We stopped in at 5:30 to see if we could change our reservation and they were able to change it to 630. So polite and accommodating from the first moment. The service was exquisite, so friendly and happy. I wish I had gotten the waitress's name. And everyone was happily accommodating when my daughter wanted her steak cooked a little bit more. My lobster was fantastic. Perfectly cooked. Just wish it had been bigger. Overall worthy expense and fun to go to old historic restaurant.

    Extraordinary, warm, skilled service (Anne as a server and Jerry as general manager who checked on us 4+ times). Straightforward, delicious crab cakes, wedge salad (perhaps add a little more dressing), steaks, sauces and that perfect ube cheesecake. Sexy, roomy interior great for a date night. A real gem in the CBD.

    Listen, I know when you’re in New Orleans it’s all about the Creole. And we have thoroughly enjoyed eating our way through bowls of gumbo and grilled oysters… but nothing celebrated my palate like this experience we had at Nobu. I have no idea what we ate exactly, but I remember when I briefly needed glasses in 3rd grade and thinking the grass had never been greener and the sky had never really been blue like this before. This is what this food did to me. The flavors had—no exaggeration—actual swear-to-Jesus layers and my mouth celebrated it all with a little grand finale of a pop of punchy explosion. Yes. It was all that. It was perfect and everything I didn’t know I had been missing. It’s not cheap, but it is a real experience. Our server, Andrea made the best recommendations and our chef even visited tableside with an extra little surprise. I imagine in a world where people are seeking the Creole experience this Asian cuisine could be overlooked, but it should be a stand out. The cod dish I forgot to take a picture of was this sexy satiny dish that felt so luxurious like the best sheets you’ve ever slept in… Whatever the other white fish dish was the thing I will be coming back for. A beautiful layered delight. This little pepper that hit you right at the end like a first kiss. The Wagu dish was so smooth with just the right amount of peppery, salty punch atop a melt in your mouth beef with a final tomato explosion. All so good. Save your money for this splurge, it is worth it even for non-fancy people like me.
