    Food was good, but dear lord is the omakase slow!!!! 30 minutes between tte last two courses with no reason at all. Finally left our 5p Sunday evening reservation at 7:30- and that’s only because I had to literally wave down the server. Have had plenty of omakase- will not be eating this again at Nobu.

    The food isn’t bad. The hosts were good, as well as the other staff. Even other servers were nice. Our server specifically just wasn’t attentive. I would understand if he had a lot of tables, etc., but he passed by our table A LOT of times (like literally in front of us) and we signaled him for water or the check a few times but it would take him so long to actually come to us. The table we had was also very uncomfortable. For that price and for a buffet, you would expect to be seated somewhere that’s not a high top especially since we made the reservation a month ago. Our table and chairs were so small that we had to actually wear our bags. I wish it was a better experience given the price and the overall ambiance of the place.

    They should clarify the timing of their Saturday brunch. We had the last seating at 2:30 and were told (I called the restaurant and asked the question specifically and confirmed over text when I confirmed with the restaurant) that we would have the full buffet experience and a two hour window. However they broke down the buffet at 3:30 and desserts were essentially gone by 3:15. They did give us gelato to compensate but it was still a disappointment.

    Good food, but overpriced. Miso soup was not super hot. Table positioned in a very bad place, with the corridor to the kitchen and a computer station right next to it. Service ok, friendly, but slow. Took a while to get the check at the end. Overall experience, I have had better, but still a nice place to visit.
