- OTOpenTable DinervipSan Francisco Bay Area •4 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoThe food and service at Nobu can’t be beat. Every dish, spot on perfect. Our server & team were phenomenal. He curated our food selections & really nailed it. Food portions are small. Works for me but gets expensive trying to satiate a young guy. I’d love to see the “tacos” be sized for at least two bites. We ate in the atrium area at Nobu Palo Alto. It is probably lovely in the summer when you can see the garden. On a chilly, rainy November night, it felt a bit like being in the overflow area. Could perhaps be made more inviting with a little attention.More infoNobu Palo AltoPrice: Very Expensive• Japanese• Palo Alto•4.5
