Dinner at Nobu 57 is a must. Personal favorites: Baby spinach lobster salad (I order the sour dressing ) + sticky rice cakes with tuna (addicting) pic attached + Black cod or Sea bass . Yum.

Eric Dallemagne

David Rockwell, who designed the original Nobu, went to great lengths to replicate the current fashion in New York Japanese #restaurants for cavernous, excessively baroque rooms.

Catherine Payant

Ask for the limited foie gras dumplings (off menu !) they really are worth it!!! Also: Fantastic salmon sashimi with dried Miso (in photo).

Fabian Martin

Don’t get me wrong it’s good but you definitely pay a hefty price for the atmosphere here. The food itself isn’t that incredible. Strongly recommend the miso soup . Skip the sea urchin . Soap 8/10 ????????

Great ambiance at Nobu 57. We enjoyed the Lobster shiitake salad with spicy lemon dressing , Chilean seabass umani miso , Crispy rice with spicy tuna (pictured).

J

Had an amazing dinner here! The food is incredibly good; go with California and Shrimp Tempura rolls , Black Cod with Miso . Lychee mango tasted really good!

Justin B

Enjoyable lunch atmosphere, slow on weekends. A little more pricey than most places, but worth it for knowing I'm eating quality raw fish . Service was very good, on top of everything... Team effort.

Sam McCrimson

One of my favs. Great atmosphere, amazing service, and of course unforgettable food. Aside from the must-have Black Cod with Miso , try the Stendhal chocolate mousse with rasp coulis - a 57 exclusive.

James Kiernan

Go with the classics - Miso Cod , Rock Shrimp , Sashimi Salad and punctuate the meal with some sushi . More sake please. ????

Nikhita Mahtani

I can't even begin to start naming my favorites -black cod , tuna chips , lobster tacos , tiradito, spicy crab , anticucho chicken . So good, everything elegantly prepared. Dessert has to be a bento box .

Lisa Yvette L

Love this place! First time here in ages and with my friend who was the Chef who opened the Nobu location in Milan, Italy. What a treat.....extra special with a lychee on top! #danteboccuzzi

hania albraikan

good food, wonderful atmosphere and incredible service. The portion of the food was very huge !! Don't order too much,

Paula Buzzo

Stunning decor, excellent attendance and delicious food. The Classic Bento Box is a good choice. As dessert , try mochi .

Shaw

Good place for a power lunch in midtown, particularly if your bankers are footing the bill

Simran Dass

Absolutely loved the shrimp “rock” tempura , crispy rice with tuna , jalapeño dish below & the black miso cod . Would recommend!

Odile Roujol

What I like in NY is that you can eat alone ... and nobody will bother you . Nobu

Colin Lee

The bar seating (sofas ) is casual , relaxing but comfortable for couples. Miso black cod was not as excellent as hyped up, but still good and its a large portion .

Antonio Calderon

Excellent Japanese restaurant . Everything was great. If you are in NYC and like Japanese gastronomy , you should visit Nobu.

Andreas Cohen

Miso Cod & Bento Box dessert with fondant au chocolat are wonderful. Forget the sushi . Diner demographic has changed and no longer a destination for the beautiful people

Gabi

Sashimi salad to die for ! Always absolutely delicious

Fabian Herrera

Probably the best decor and ambience of all the Nobu's. Always ask for the specials and make sure to order the black cod miso !

Mafe Sotillo Lairet

Amazing! Try the black code miso , omakase , yellow tail sashimi , rock shrimp . Don't forget the mochis for dessert

Natalie K

This place is so good. Crispy tuna is amazing. Yellowtail jalapeño sashimi is amazing. Everything is amazing.

Mafe Sotillo Lairet

Amazing!! Try the black code miso , omakase , yellow tail sashimi , rock shrimp and for dessert the mochis

Alan Garcia

Tiradito Nobu style. Eat it all day for breakfast lunch & dinner . Or enjoy as light fare at the bar . Simply amazing.

Eaters Heaven

Japanese Uni, Blue fin Otoro and Kampachi sushi . Rock shrimp tempura as app. Tempura a bit mushy. Uni & Otoro was fabulous.

Martina

The best sushi I ever had! Also salmon and tuna sashimi really good!???????????????? ???? ???? ???? ????

Maria Styles

Trendy , fun hot spot. big selection of tempura , my favs are the scallops , shrimp , sweet potato and green beans . as main course i like the lobster or tenderloin and hibachi beef .

Stephanie DeDecker

Got the Nobu Bento Box for lunch - food was amazing, definitely a lot though

Eric Leebow

Excellent mushroom salad and must try the brussel sprouts . Perhaps the best ever.

Gary Blum

Simply amazing from start to finish. Great food (live octopus , miso black cod , spicy rock shrimp and more) and a great waitress

Ryan McDonnell

omakase tonight was different because it was also hot and cold dishes in addition to a sushi selection and for a unique experience ask to be seated at sushi bar . green tea ice cream .

Kay 5

Trendy spot. Almost everything tastes amazing, especially rock shrimp tempura and crispy rice . Great service.

Jonathan Dever

The sushi is amazing, if you go make sure to get the tempura shrimp and finish off with the bento box . Absolutely divine.

Eric Ho

Food was absolutely amazing! Follow my NYC journey on Instagram @EricHoRaw

Anuj Mathur

the black cod with miso is delicious, but it's a lot easier to eat ordering it by the piece in lettuce wraps .

Ingvild M. Plosiv

The Bento Box is absolutely delicious (the dinner one, that is. The dessert bento box was a bit disappointing). Great lunch !

Peter Roth

Ask for the Kobe beef dumplings . They aren't on the menu. Act like you always get them when you go there, and don't take no for an answer. You're welcome.

Kristyne Farinacci Evanoski

Everything you try is absolutely clean , healthy and delish! You'd never know how healthy your eating! My new favorite restaurant !

Elena Hatib

Nobu always has great food and the best service. I love their simple sushi roles and desserts the most!

Kenny Imafidon

This place is a can't miss. The staff is amazing and the food is out of this world. I am never disappointed here.

Reuters Business Traveller

The place investment bankers in New York go when they fancy a Japanese; fusion chef Nobu Matsuhisa's miso-marinated black cod , rock shrimp with spicy mayonnaise have stood the test of time.

Bina Kijmedee

Black cod in miso is simply heavenly! Not really an authentic Japanese restaurant in my opinion, but definitely a special one with a lots of great Japanese-based dishes.

Constance Farias

New style salmon sashimi , black cod with misu, crispy rice with spicy tuna , king crab tempura and creamy spicy crab - GREAT!!!

Leah Zelazny Poswolsky

Amazing dessert -- order the hazelnut and cream puff so heavenly...yellowtail jalepeno roll is to die for...good place to share dishes together.

Erwin Jansen

Nice vibe; friendly service ; all the Nobu classics and in a good location. Good choice.
