"When we’re in the mood to live our best lives, we head to Nobu Atlanta behind Buckhead’s Phipps Plaza, where we can splurge on $30 sashimi and $50 small plates and pretend we’ve got a few commas in our account. Like the others in the popular upscale brand, Atlanta’s Nobu hotel and restaurant largely delivers the same fancy-pants (they’re tapered pants) experience you expect would be worthy of several name drops in Drake lyrics—A- to Z-list sightings, sleek interiors that mix textures like wood and onyx, and bold dishes like their iconic sweet miso-glazed cod, which barely needs chewing. Make the most of your meal (and money) by skipping the sushi and sticking to the hot and cold plates near the front of the menu, where you’ll find the most flavor." - nina reeder, demarco williams
