"Trendy restaurants in Houston open and shutter with the blink of an eye, but Nobu has glided through its first nine months after opening in Clutch City to much fanfare last summer. The service is bar none, and the menu offers a truly fresh and creative experience each visit. Go for the dover sole with yuzu caper sauce, Mishima reserve wagyu tenderloin, and red snapper sashimi with dry miso. For those who prefer a multi-course tasting experience, the Nobu signature tasting menu costs $125 and the Chef’s Choice Omakase menu is $175." - Nadia Gire
