the service was good, but rapidly paced. the servers were very attentive and knowledgeable about the dishes. sadly, the dishes were some of the poorest i’ve had in any restaurant. i’ve read the reviews preceding mine, and i can understand that the excitement and enthusiasm of being in las vegas tends to blend into everything. hope this doesn’t portray me as arrogant or somehow boasting a unique or superior palate, but i cannot imagine this restaurant earning even three stars on yelp or opentable. there is an accurate review here from august 24 that was a TRUE reflection of the experience, especially the omakase. if you are a frequent patron of superior restaurants (michelin mentioned or rated), you will be extremely disappointed and possibly angry after dining here.
firstly, i selected the omakase dining experience and was seated at a teppanyaki table / grill. i asked the host if this was correct, and she said it was. unique. i challenge nobu to reference any omakase experience in the world that seats guests at a tepanyaki table.
the dishes that followed were entirely well over-sauced and muted the actual dish. it was clear they were made en masse and not a true omakase style. the sashimi had so much vinegar, i found it inedible (drowning in vinegar sauces). i still am puzzled at a fried rice experience for omakase. the omakase is an opportunity for the chef to share his proudest and most unique fresh dishes that match the fish and style that matches for that day. this was anything but that. as well, an over-dressed spinach salad that was so misplaced in the sequence. i was backed up with two dishes before more were pushed in front of me.
i’m not sure i’ll return to any nobu as the food is extremely different than it once was (when nobu was highly acclaimed and admired as the barometer of sushi retardants). it is now simply a claim jumper or outback steakhouse quality of restaurant, but at a price that doesn’t come close to the substantially poor dishes / food.
