   Nobu has been one of my favorite restaurants for years, and I’ve always looked forward to ordering the same dishes every time I visit. However, during my most recent experience, I was quite disappointed. The portion size of the famous spinach salad has noticeably decreased, and unfortunately, the taste was not the same as I’ve come to expect. Additionally, the rock shrimp tempura with three sauces was soggy, and we were unable to finish it. Overall, the experience fell short of the high standards and expectations I’ve always associated with Nobu. I truly hope these issues are addressed, as I would love to continue enjoying the restaurant I’ve cherished for so long.

   Very slow service. Trashy crowd. Prices underpinned by the name, rather than the food. Not the Nobu of old.

   Mooie zaak, vriendelijk personeel, eten was lekker maar erg prijzig voor wat je kreeg. De smaken waren niet bijzonder. Deserts waren wel bijzonder smakelijk.

   Our first time being in London and we had been to NOBU in New York City and to try NOBU in London. Spectacular is the one word to describe NOBU London. We were delighted to be at the restaurant during the 30th Anniversary of NOBU. We had the special tasting menu for the celebration week. Superb. KEN L.
