    I've been to many Nobu restaurants and the service here was nowhere near the caliber of service I am accustomed to. The food was great and the atmosphere was on par with other Nobu restaurants. I'm not sure that I will revisit this particular Nobu restaurant again. Hopefully it was just a rare experience here.

    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.

    Not quite as good as in the past, so somewhat disappointing for the exorbitant price, but very few sushi options in and around DC

    Server was a little slow, we did not had dinner menus when we got sat, server took a time to grab our drinks menu, he seemed busy with a lot of tables, maybe if sections are small he would focus more in customer service. It was my brother’s first time & I wanted to have a great time….
