Nobu - Caesars New Orleans

Everything was very fine, but I will be dreaming about the Black Miso Cod for the rest of my life. Tender and flavorful, it is the best entree I’ve ever had. The jalapeno shrimp tempura was tender and the breading was perfect. The spicy tuna with crispy rice was interesting, but not spicy (speaking as a native New Orleanian.) Everything we had was interesting, and I’m very glad we went. The service was 5 stars and the ambiance is beautiful. When I return, I will be ordering the Black Miso cod, the spicy Shrimp tempura, and the jalapeno cauliflower.

I was excited to visit and try out the sushi dishes here as I am a huge sushi 🍣 fan. It is part of Caesar's Palace Casino and offers valet parking for $20. It is located immediately to the right of the entrance when you walk in.. I went with the chef's choice, which is the option that allows the chef 👨🏽‍🍳 and waiter to select different items from the menu for you that they suggest. They sent out a variety of selections from cold 🥶 to hot 🥵 plate items. You start with a few cold items then graduate over to hot. You give the waiter a budget and they make the selections. I enjoyed everything that was sent out. The BEST item was the Black Cod 🐟 with Miso. Everything came out quickly and was hot when it arrived to the table. It was busy, so to see how quickly each item came out was awesome. Service was TOP TIER! LaToya & Madison greets you at the entrance and their welcoming spirit is comforting and welcoming. LaToya was eager to meet my needs and do her best to honor any of my requests. Victor was the MVP of the evening. He was funny, down to earth 🌎, energetic, knowledgeable, patient, helpful, informative, and professional. He had extensive knowledge of the menu and gave suggestions and details about each item. He was willing to answer any questions and address any concerns while not showing any signs of being impatient or that he was too busy. Should you visit, I HIGHLY recommend you request Victor to be your waiter. The food quality, timeliness, and portions was pretty good. The price 💰was definitely excessive in my opinion. I feel it is to pay 💸for the space in the casino. Service was AMAZING and atmosphere is top notch also, but if I come back it would only be for drinks. If you want a high end sushi 🍣 experience, this is an option for you. I would prefer a more affordable sushi place with more reasonable pricing options and items. Overall a great experience, and a big shout-out to the team who served on me.

Thank you, Chef Kai, for the absolutely delicious sushi! Every piece was incredibly fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. Your attention to detail and creativity truly made it a memorable dining experience. Can’t wait to come back for more!

The best service ever. We were sitting at the sushi bar and never regretted it! Special thanks to chef Kai, all dishes were fantastic, and attitude to the clients exceeded all expectations! We’ll come again when we’re back to New Orleans.

Everything was hot and delicious. Our waitress Kristen was amazing as well as our busboy. They really made my birthday a night to remember. We tried a variety of dishes, and they all were impressive. My favorite dishes of the night was the lobster tempura, yellowtail jalapeño, and wagyu tacos. The grapefruit cocktail is a must try.

I have been twice so I have two different reviews. It’ll be a little long winded. My apologies in advance My first visit: I wish I could do 4.5 stars but I just can't give 5 because my table was not ready for my reservation time. My party of 5 had to stand by the jam packed bar while they got a table together. After 20 minutes one of my friends went back to the hostess to inquire and suddenly our table was ready. But anyways, on to the positive!!! It's beautiful here! It reminds me of the Vegas location. I'm so excited for New Orleans to get such a well renowned restaurant! Service was great! Xavier was very pleasant and knowledgeable about the menu! We tried a lottt of food and everything was sooo good! 10/10 recommend! The only thing I didn't love was the cactus churros because the ice cream was beer flavored. I don't think you can go wrong with anything on the menu honestly. My 2nd visit: I still agree with everything I said in my original review but I recently went back and just wanted to do an update because my experience was a little different this time. This time I was only with a party of 2 but somehow I was still told to wait at the bar when I arrived despite having a reservation. The tables for smaller parties aren't nearly as chic as it was last time when I was with a large group. We were in the middle of the dining area and the music was really loud from the outside casino area and we were really close to another table. We ordered the yellow tail jalapeño, the spicy edamame, rock shrimp and tiradito to start. The tiradito looked slightly different from my last dining experience but it was still good nevertheless. We ordered Cod as one of our entrees and about 10 minutes later our server came back and said they were out of it and would we like to order anything else. We said give us a few minutes and we ended up ordering the gambas al ajillo to replace it and then we were told they were out of that was well. Dot dot dot... why not tell us everything that was out before leaving us to browse the menu? But we ended up getting the prime beef again and the Parmesan truffle rice. It was good but it was disappointing that they were out of two entrees we wanted. We got the banana soy toban for dessert. The server told me they would put a candle in it because we were celebrating a birthday but the dessert came out without a candle and she was no where to be found. So, the food we had was good but just wanted to do a little update

Nobu recently touched down in the Big Easy so it was only right me and the girls popped in. The menu is shareable for the table however the portions aren’t very shareable. We all ordered different items on the menu. For me I got sushi and the lamb chops. The lamb chops were so flavorful and were coated with some crunchy bits. I wish they were bigger in size but they are lollipop style. The sushi was also good I would definitely come back for a sushi and drinks. Our waitress was really sweet was constantly checking in on us which we appreciated.

An Unforgettable Birthday Dinner at Nobu with Chef Erin’s Exquisite Private Menu! I recently had the pleasure of celebrating a friend’s birthday dinner at Nobu, and I can confidently say it was one of the most remarkable dining experiences we’ve ever had. Chef Erin went above and beyond to curate a personalized, private menu that left us speechless. Every course was a masterpiece, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. From the delicate sushi to the perfectly cooked mains, each dish was more amazing than the last. The highlight of the evening was Chef Erin herself. She took the time to craft a menu that not only reflected the birthday guest of honor’s preferences but also introduced us to some unique dishes that showcased her incredible talent and creativity. You could tell every ingredient was carefully chosen and executed to perfection. It felt like a true culinary journey. The service was equally impressive—attentive, friendly, and seamless. Our servers anticipated our every need, making the experience feel truly special and effortless. They explained each dish as it arrived and ensured our glasses were never empty. If you’re looking for an exceptional dining experience, whether it’s a special occasion or just a night out, Nobu (and Chef Erin!) is the place to be. We left full, happy, and already planning our next visit. Highly recommend!

Such a wonderful experience to enjoy with friends. The food was outstanding, the service impeccable, and the ambiance refined. Our group dined family style celebrating a birthday and enjoyed absolutely everything! - black cod miso (OMG) - lamb chops - yellow tail sashimi - wagyu tacos - black cod butter lettuce - 4oz wagyu - ceviche - and of course, sushi Hands-down the most flavor-packed bites...anywhere!

Sooo I had super high expectations because the hype around Nobu was so real! Maybe it was because we came in late (9:10pm) but I wasn't too wowed by anything. The best part: the service and the Wagyu dumplings. The sushi was mehhh. I had a French 75 with Qui Anejo tequila. Tasty! I believe you need to experience Nobu but...don't get too excited.

Listen, it's Nobu so you know what you're getting into, and don't get me wrong, it's not like there is anything *wrong* with it, but for what it is and the price point, there are just so many better, local places to go. There really wasn't anything that I tried that I couldn't find at a really good sushi restaurant, and while it was good, there wasn't anything in particular that wowed. Except! I can't deny it, the Miso Black Cod was fantastic. It's easy to see how that dish alone launched the whole franchise. Just a beautiful, delicious fish in a perfect sauce for it. If you go to Nobu, my recommendation is to get a couple drinks, some yellowtail and the Miso Black Cod and call it a night. To me that's really the only thing that you can't get better somewhere else.

We were excited to try NOBU at Caesars and went all in for the Omakase and sake. It started off okay with sashimi and one very upsetting mackerel dish but went downhill. They brought us fries tofu with soy and spicy tuna, the server left it, but then came back a few minutes later to tell us this wasn't ours. They brought it to another table. The next two courses were a giant pile of what seems like firecracker shrimp. Very PF Changs style and smothered in mayo. Then a huge piece of candied Cod fish. Both were so odd and not great. We ended the Omakase there. The staff was amazing though and brought us the dish that was removed earlier (not great) and more sake as a make good for the meal. Overall, cool environment and great staff. Would not recommend the Omakase at nearly $200/pp.

A Luxurious Culinary Experience Located inside Caesars New Orleans, Nobu blends Japanese precision with New Orleans indulgence. Valet service was smooth, though a parade caused some delays--but the staff handled it seamlessly. Inside, the sleek black-and-gold decor, dim lighting, and refined atmosphere set the perfect tone for the night. Standout Dishes & Drinks: Drinks: A Negroni--bold and bitter, perfectly balanced--and a Lychee Martini, floral, smooth, and slightly sweet. Both were expertly crafted. Yellowtail Jalapeño Nigiri - Buttery, fresh, with a citrusy yuzu kick. Wagyu Dumplings - Crispy outside, melt-in-your-mouth richness inside. Fried Okra - A refined take on a Southern staple, crispy and addictive. Spicy Tuna Roll & Sashimi - Fresh, silky, and packed with flavor. Satandagi with Nutella Ice Cream - Warm, crispy beignets paired with creamy indulgence. From the exceptional service to the flawless execution of every dish and cocktail, Nobu New Orleans is a must-visit for a high-end dining experience. Just be mindful of parade season if you're valet parking!

I have come back with another visit to this slice of Japanese paradise in Nola. I sat at the bar and started off with the tea pot portion of sake. I cannot remember the name, but I allowed the bartender to choose my option. He was able to explain the flavor profiles and offer an option that was flowery and smooth and met my satisfaction. Similar to the other drinks, not enough to feel a hard buzz, but enough to take the edge off. The Wagyu tacos come with a hefty price tag of $18 per taco and 2 taco minimum, and you can eat them in one large bite probably...but they were incredibly delicious, tender and flavorful and I wanted 5 more!! I think this is an item that made Nobu stand out to me as a restaurant! The black cod miso was the most delicate, buttery and smooth piece of fish I think I've ever had. The flavor profile was perfectly balanced with a sweet edge. It is 100% worth the social media hype. This is another menu item that makes Nobu stand out amongst other dining restaurants, and I would recommend everyone try. The soft shell crab sushi was nice. It's not something I would order again as long as I have other things to try on the menu, however I was satisfied to have tried. I think you can get some amazing soft shell crab sushi at a number of sushi places in Nola so this wasn't unique for me. Now for the item that surprised me the most, my nightcap, the Negroni! Omg it was sooo delicious and I don't think I've ever had a Negroni. Nobu adds a twist to their Negroni by adding Saki. It was 10000% delicious and I think I will end every Nobu meal with a Negroni now.

I've always wanted to go to Nobu. Once I heard that one had recently opened in New Orleans and I was headed there soon, I knew this was my chance. First of all, the restaurant is beautiful and everything is cohesive from the decor to the staff uniforms. The colors and textures throughout the place are beautiful, even though it's located in Caesars Casino. My waiter was extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the menu, you could tell he enjoys his job. He made some suggestions and answered my questions. I ordered the famous Black Cod with Miso, Lobster Taco and a Wagyu Beef Taco. The Black Cod is a signature item that has been marinated in miso and sake for days. The outside of the fish is almost caramelized while the inside of the fish was unbelievably buttery and flavorful. The lobster Taco was very good and fresh but the Wagyu Taco was exceptional I could have sat there and ate 20 more. Each taco had its own special sauce to complement the protein. The tacos are very small but the fish is a hearty portion. I was satisfied. I want to also mention that towards the back of the restaurant there is an open kitchen. I love an open kitchen, you can watch them prepare the food! Based on my experience I would certainly recommend for special occasions, it's gonna cost a good coin!!

My second time at a Nobu location but my first time at the NOLA location. This place is fairly new. We had a table of 10 and had a reservation. We ordered a ton of sushi and honestly it was just ok. When coming to Nobu you expect amazing sushi and I would say this sushi was average. The other apps we ordered were all good but nothing amazing and all small portions. Sort of disappointed as I expected Nobu to wow me!

We had a truly pleasant experience at Nobu last night. The experience was luxurious, grown, and sexy. We made reservations and walked to the location from our hotel. Our waitress was very accommodating and information. We tried a variety of different options on the menu but my favorites were: Crispy Fish Tacos, Scallops (raw but prepared), and the Green salad with Sliced Black Truffles. This was an amazing experience and we enjoyed it tremendously. It is a little pricey and lends toward that high-end experience but even bite is a food adventure worth savoring and experiencing even if it is just once. They are great for groups and romantic dinners. Our experience was awesome, and the location is easily accessible at Caesar's.

Woooo. Nobu in New Orleans is one of the better locations I've been to. Pricy, but the food is delicious. Friendly and efficient service. Everyone was very knowledgeable of the menu and offerings. It was a bit loud but to be expected since it is located inside of a casino. I wish they would have had more mocktail options but the two that they had were very good and my dude enjoyed his specialty cocktails. Crispy okra - this was standard but the batter was just as described, crispy. Scallop tiradito - this dish was bright, the scallops were buttery and probably my favorite of the night. Toro Nola ($94) - this was a special and came with 6 spoons. I didn't ask for the price when they told me about it so I was a bit shook when I saw the price on the receipt. Lol. But honestly, it wasn't a big shock since the spoons came topped with caviar and gold flakes. I wish they would have offered them by the spoon bc it was too many for just the two of us. Sea bass - came with truffle but wasn't overwhelmingly truffley like other dishes I've had before. The fish was flaky and cooked well. Lamb chops ($24/chop) - overcooked. We asked for medium rare and it came out well done. I didn't eat it, but my guy said it was okay for being well. Eggplant miso - I love eggplant and this dish came out piping hot. It's different than their black cod miso bc it's obviously their vegetarian version, but it comes with a spicy version of the miso paste. It was perfectly cooked. Desserts were the star of the whole dinner. We ordered 4 desserts and every single one was a hit. Matcha ice cream, which seems really basic but was delicious. Cappuccino miso. A dessert sando with kiwi and cream filling and soursop shiso sorbet on the side. The soursop sorbet was so good and I would just order a cup of that if I could. Our last dessert was so cute. It came with a sugar dome that you had to crack to get to the rest of the dessert.

Nobu is an upscale/fine dining restaurant chain with locations in LA, Vegas, Miami, New York, that being said, it's very exciting that New Orleans finally gets a Nobu location! I had never eaten here, but I had heard great news about it and was super excited to get the opportunity to eat here. I wish I got more pictures, but I'm sure you can find them on here. To begin, the interior of the restaurant is incredibly beautiful! Very dark, quiet and intimate feeling. The service was incredible, and very detailed. Lots of descriptions of their popular dishes and their specials from the servers, they really know the menu! I am vegetarian so I'm rather limited on what I can order, however, they had plenty of vegetarian options and I only scratch the surface. If I come back, I definitely want to try some of their other options. That being said, I got the Shishido peppers, the roasted jalapeño cauliflower dish, and the bananas soy toban dessert. The roasted shishito peppers were delicious! They were covered with some miso sesame sauce, which was very savory and honestly I would've preferred that sauce on my cauliflower dish. The cauliflower, on the other hand, did not impress me sadly. It was $30 for a decent size portion, but the flavor was just not there. The sauce was too thin so it would barely make it onto any of the cauliflower, and the little that did make it on there didn't make much of a difference. The sauce was rather bland and didn't have that punching savory flavor. I was hoping for. But to be fair, I didn't ask the flavor profile of the dish, and there were no descriptions of it on the menu. It just said roasted jalapeño cauliflower. So it was a risk. But considering how good the Shishido peppers were, I was hoping that the cauliflower would be just as good. Unfortunately, a lot of fine dining restaurants can be hit or miss with the vegetarian food, and it reminded me of the cauliflower dish at Muriel's, which was also pretty underwhelming. But thankfully, some other restaurants are able to do a pretty good cauliflower or vegetarian dish. Anyway, what saved this or totally turned. My perspective around was a dessert. There were like eight or nine different desserts, they all had descriptions which looked and sounded mouthwatering and divine. I couldn't decide, but I love bananas, foster, there's not many places where you can get it, and I'm assuming that this is something only on the local menu Due to this location being a New Orleans location. They had the bananas soy Tobon, which seemed like a play on bananas, foster. It came with caramelized, bananas, candy, pecans, and Malaga ice cream. Honestly, it tasted very similar to bananas. Foster, the only difference is that there was a hint of a savory flavor in the caramel sauce, I'm assuming that they cooked it and some soy sauce along with the caramel/butter/sugar. The candy pecans were amazing, I always like some crunch in my bananas, foster, and the Malaga ice cream was so smooth and so delicious. I haven't had Malaga in a very long time so I wasn't exactly sure what to expect but if I'm remembering correctly, I think it's rather mild/bland root vegetable kind of like taro or sweet potato. So the flavor went well with the bananas, it wasn't quite a vanilla, but it wasn't overpowering or unusual. It was very smooth and sweet. So overall, I loved it. My table mates got the bento box which was a flower chocolate cake with Matcha ice cream, it was good, but nothing crazy. And then my other table mate got the miso cappuccino, which had a great flavor profile, but was basically just miso chocolate/coffee ice cream with some candy nuts at the bottom. It was good, but I'm glad that I went with what I went with. The bananas soy toban checked Al the boxes! And it was only $16, so not bad! Can't wait to come back! Oh, and also, my table mate had gotten some type of dessert wine that the server recommended, I don't remember what it was called, but it was incredible! I don't remember it being too expensive, but it tasted so rich and smooth and sweet, it tasted like it had caramel and honey, and nectar in it, and you could barely taste the liquor. Love a good dessert wine!

Food was excellent fresh and flavorful. Cocktail was excellent. Lychee Martini. Service was excellent server explained all details on how to create a great experience. Decor as always great We did the Omakase. Chef selections were amazing. A lot of food so be hungry.

Service is amazing! We had reservations and were quickly seated once we arrived. The waitress was pleasant, knowledgeable, and informative. We were celebrating a birthday weekend and opted for the chef's choice of menu items. We were served about 9 courses and then dessert. It was a mixture of fish, crispy okra to start, beef, and crab. For two people with a 20% gratuity, our bill was almost $500 and only one alcoholic beverage was ordered which was their signature Old Fashioned. We dine out at many places often and I can honestly say it is very much overpriced and overrated. While it was tasty and the service was impeccable, I've had better for far less. For context, we dined at La Boca Steak restaurant with 3 cocktails, 4 sides, 4 steaks, and an appetizer (4 people dining) and our bill was $200 less with gratuity than it was at Nobu last night. Lastly, there were limited restrooms that weren't that clean. There were 2 unisex single restrooms and always a line and a wait to use them. There was nothing special mentioned regarding the birthday and were asked a ton of questions about preferences such as exquisite taste like octopus or scallops and we didn't receive any in our chef's selections. I honestly don't recall all the items we had but it certainly didn't seem like $500 worth. I'm open to going back and trying some other items that we select. By the way, in celebration for his birthday, La Boca gave us the dessert on the house. There was also a period of time when we weren't attended to but I can honestly say the food kept coming and it was all very good.

Nobu in New Orleans is finally open!! I went to check it out and it did NOT disappoint! There is a reason why Nobu is hyped up! Stand out items from my meal was the black cod with miso (1000% worth it and I will now order it every time I visit a Nobu!), yellowtail jalapeño, rock shrimp, and wagu tacos. Oh, and I can't forget about the lychee martini! Our waiter was exceptional and offered a lot of insight into the menu and offerings. I also loved how the inspo for the decoration of the restaurant is the Louisiana bayou! The ONLY thing I did not love was that you could see the casino floor through the restaurant. It's not obvious if you sit in certain sections of the restaurant, but I was sat in the area where you can see it. I did not knock off a star because the food is just that good! Also, Nobu is meant to be shared "family style" so if you get a good group together, it is actually pretty affordable! Cheers!

Enjoyed Nobu New Orleans! I'm glad there is finally one in the city to go to. This Nobu is located in the newly renovated Ceaser's Casino. It's your typical Nobu restaurant-- lovely food and drinks, great customer service as well. The ambience is dark which I love and would be perfect for a date night. I don't love that it's located in the casino as the vibe is a little off and does r give "upscale dinning". Nonetheless, I had a good experience.

I love the interior design of this location. Every single detail was well thought out. It's one of the most beautiful restaurants we have in Nola. The service was top notch. The staff was super knowledgeable about the menu and they were very pleasant. The food was amazing. We had the yellow tail jalapeño which never misses! The fish is so fresh and tender and the sauce has layers of citrus and spicy flavor. We also had tiradito. It was my first time trying this and I'm so glad I got it. It was really good. The flavors were pretty complex on this one. We had the crispy rice and spicy tuna. That was really good. My goodness. You won't have anything similar at another restaurant. The flavors in this little combo were perfectly layered. We had the rock shrimp with spicy sauce. Another hit. The shrimp were fried perfectly and the sauce was spicy and creamy but not overpowering. We had the miso black cod. The fish was so flaky and soft. It damn near melted in my mouth. The crust on the sear perfect. And last but definitely not least we had the wagyu dumplings. This was probably my favorite thing. The wagyu was so tender and so flavorful. And the sauce it sat on top perfectly complemented the dumplings. And of course I had a lychee martini. That's a must when you go to Nobu.

I don't want to start with the price point in any review but in this case I will because it sets expectations of excellence and high-end quality and immaculate preparation and service. This restaurant is in the top tier price wise in this city. The decor is modern, well maintained and details are carefully considered. The service was friendly and efficient. The team worked well together even if some team members were not well trained and receiving training during the service. A few dishes were memorable, the rest wasn't worth the effort put into them. I hope this review helps the establishment improve and offer the top notch hospitality service and food it's meant to.

OMG the food was sooooo incredible. Every single thing we got was so delish. Yes it's expensive. Know that going in and accept it. We got many dishes. Both of our tops was a salmon dish Salmon with Karashi Su Miso - GET THIS! Such an interesting flavor profile. Steak was top notch. Lychee mocktail was a flavor explosion in a good way Jalepeno yellowtail incredible Tuna tataki YUM!! Service was great, steady flow. The truffle wasabi ceasar salad was soooo good. Vibes were great. Least fave but still delish- rock shrimp I legit wish I was rich so I could eat here weekly. I get why the kardashians got it so much now!!!

Phenomenal food. i truly did not think it would be worth the hype, but it was incredible. If they have the toro and lobster specials, they are MUST orders! The service was also great, and the vibes are there too. it's really dark and moody. perfect for a boogie date night!

Service was TOP TIER! LaToya & Madison greets you at the entrance and their welcoming spirit is comforting and welcoming. LaToya was eager to meet my needs and do her best to honor any of my requests. Victor was the MVP of the evening. He was funny, down to earth , energetic, knowledgeable, patient, helpful, informative, and professional. He had extensive knowledge of the menu and gave suggestions and details about each item. He was willing to answer any questions and address any concerns while not showing any signs of being impatient or that he was too busy. Should you visit, I HIGHLY recommend you request Victor to be your waiter. The food quality, timeliness, and portions was pretty good. The price was definitely excessive in my opinion. I feel it is to pay for the space in the casino. Service was AMAZING and atmosphere is top notch also, but if I come back it would only be for drinks. If you want a high end sushi experience, this is an option for you. I would prefer a more affordable sushi place with more reasonable pricing options and items. Overall a great experience, and a big shout-out to the team who served on me.

Hey, Hopes everyone is well that reads this review! Let's jump straight into my thoughts on NOBU and NY thoughts on the restaurant overall. Ambiance: This is a very cool and dim lit spot. It comes odd as a very intimate and "Chic" type of place. You know that you are going to spend some money soon as you walkthrough the spot. The chairs and table are very comfy. The smell of the sizzling foods that the waitresses and waitors brings out always get the attention! Very sexy and just laid back. Service: The service is really what you are paying for. This is the Reservations Spot! Meaning that you probably want to make reservations because bat this moment it is packed with RSVP parties to be honest. I did not see too many parties of people getting in without a reservation. I was a guest and came right on time so I was escorted to my table soon as I gave the party table name. The waitress was very knowledgeable about the menu and recommended things that were delicious to me and the party of folks I was there with. Our waitress made sure our water glasses were always filled. Beware though. They do try and pitch the "Distilled or Sparkling" for water options which is something you will be billed for. I later found out that they do offer regular tap water for my folks that doesn't want those options. The hot section foods came out hot and we were served our sushi rolls towards the end after eating the hot food. Its really different than what I am accostumed to. Food: The menu is divided by appetizers, hot, and cold sections. If you have a Mushroom allergy-Please play it safe at this restaurant. Many of these dishes contains mushrooms of some sort or they may be traces of the mushroom in the dish. Please state your allergies ahead of time so you won't have any allergic reaction to the food. I'm alive today, and my lip just was swollen for a bit but thats why its so important to get the allergies talk out the way before placing your order. I had got the spicy tuna rice. It was really different. The tuna was fresh and chopped in a bowl. The tempura rice square was different for me as well. I really didn't like the dish all together I kind of ate most of the chopped tuna. The hot dish I did was the Bake Snow Crab. It was okay. It tasted kind of grity with the sauce that was underneath the crab. It was not bad but I don't ever have to get those two dishes I ordered again. Then last but not least they brought out the cold sushi rolls towards the end. I ordered the spicy tuna rolls which was very fresh and good. Fresh tends to be the theme at this spot. You do pay extra to the roll to be cut into pieces just a little FYI! The dessert menu looked so good. I'm sad that I did not get any dessert. I reallynshould have sis the Plum Wine, Sushi Rolls and a dessert. Speaking of Plum wine. Last but not least the Plum wine was the highlight for me. Very refreshing and light for a plum wine. Its a NOBU product from their very own vineyard. This was everything to me. Food overall was MEH! When you spend big money you expect a certain savory experience that would get you to come back. I'm happy I had the opportunity to go here and if I come back I'm probably going to explore the sushi rolls and dessert more instead of the other experimental dishes. Everything smelled good and looked amazing but actually eating it didn't connect right. Its really that I had a high expectation of the tasting of the food before comimg and it didn't match out well once I git the chance to eat. I picked safer dishes to try and not do mushrooms but unfortunately you can't always get away from that.

Great restaurant for special occasions or date night. I tried the yellowtail jalapeno, rock shrimp and tempura vegetables. All were excellent! The ambience is great as well as the staff/service. 10 out of 10

Everything was great! I had the Rock Shrimp and Yellowtail and they were was amazing! The staff were really nice and attentive as well. The ambiance is really nice and exclusive feeling. I'll definitely go back.

Unfortunately, we had some really bad service here which took away from our experience. The food itself was phenomenal, however. The nigiri and hand rolls were top notch. A sleeper choice was the 'Caesar.'

I still agree with everything I said in my original review but I recently went back and just wanted to do an update because my experience was a little different this time. This time I was only with a party of 2 but somehow I was still told to wait at the bar when I arrived despite having a reservation. The tables for smaller parties aren't nearly as chic as it was last time when I was with a large group. We were in the middle of the dining area and the music was really loud from the outside casino area and we were really close to another table. We ordered the yellow tail jalapeño, the spicy edamame, rock shrimp and tiradito to start. The tiradito looked slightly different from my last dining experience but it was still good nevertheless. We ordered Cod as one of our entrees and about 10 minutes later our server came back and said they were out of it and would we like to order anything else. We said give us a few minutes and we ended up ordering the gambas al ajillo to replace it and then we were told they were out of that was well. Dot dot dot... why not tell us everything that was out before leaving us to browse the menu? But we ended up getting the prime beef again and the Parmesan truffle rice. It was good but it was disappointing that they were out of two entrees we wanted. We got the banana soy toban for dessert. The server told me they would put a candle in it because we were celebrating a birthday but the dessert came out without a candle and she was no where to be found. So, the food we had was good but just wanted to do a little update

Had never eaten at a Nobu restaurant but had always wanted to. When we realized they opened up a location in NOLA-- we had to try it. Ambiance was dimly lit, comfortable, good/upbeat music playing. Our waitress was excellent and helped guide us through the menu and how to order. She also helped make some delicious suggestions. The fusion of Japanese and Peruvian cuisine was truly excellent. The cocktails were also some of the best, if not THE best, that we had the entire time we were in NOLA. Going to Nobu, you know it's going to be an expensive dining experience-- but, man... stuff adds up quickly!! Make sure to be mindful of cost as you order so you don't have a heart attack when the bill arrives. Being as expensive as it is, unfortunately it isn't the type of restaurant/experience I could personally afford to repeat with any frequency. However, I still felt it was worth doing once-- if you can afford it, do it! Only real areas for improvement for me would be the eel roll... incredibly underwhelming in comparison to every other dish we had, and the lobster special that I ordered. It was so heavily seasoned that you couldn't taste the lobster at all-- entire dish was overpowering and truthfully a little difficult to get through.

One word: AMAZING!!! Our favorite new restaurant in New Orleans. (Sorry to our restaurant-owner friends - once you try it out you'll understand). From the excellent service to the giant bottles of perfect sake to the amazing food, everything about Nobu is worthy of writing about. We can't wait to come back and see Halle again and try more of the menu! Pro Tip: The dessert was probably the best thing we've ever put in our mouths in Nola....

I've been meaning to make my way to Nobu for some time now and I am so glad I finally made it! It's such a cute place and exceeded my expectations. Our server was so kind and extremely knowledgeable. All of the food was flavorful and brought out in a timely manner. We got the crispy rice and tuna, which was amazing, Wagyu and tuna tacos, rock tempura shrimp and some of the freshest sushi I've ever tasted. For drinks we got lychee martinis and pina martinis. I couldn't believe how yummy the pina was!

Food - 5 star Service - 5 star Drinks - 5 star Ambiance - 5 star And yeah, did I mention the food is 5 stars?

I guess I was expecting the NYC experience. The food was okay, but nothing was spectacular. Service ... We waited and waited for service ... ordered martinis, got the wrong one... then waited and waited for the correct one. The bill came and was charged for 3 martinis.... Wait staff said. "Well you kept it" .... Um... I will chalk it up to being a new establishment and hoping our experience will be better next time.

We had a great experience. We didn't have a reservation and it was Super Bowl week so we sat at the bar. The food was super delicious. We can't wait to go back. Everything is has its own unique flavor to die for.

I recently dined at Nobu as a treat to myself and my mom! The restaurant is beautifully decorated and the lighting (or lack thereof) helps to set a relaxing mood. Let me preface by saying the food was absolutely delicious! Service and the time to get the food was very slow however. Also, some guys (seemed like management) were talking to the table next to us. It seemed business related, but it put a damper on our experience because they were so close to us and so loud. I feel like they should have been more considerate of the surrounding customers, so that was a turnoff. Now back to the food, we started with the Caesar Salad w/Wasabi Truffle Dressing....amazing! Next were the Crispy Okra and Crispy Fish Tacos. Both were delicious! The tacos were about two bites each so don't expect a large portion. They were definitely worth it however! This was a total splurge meal so we ordered the Wagyu on Hot Stone! Oh my goodness, this was the best thing I've ever had in my life. The Wagyu melted in my mouth. There was a 4 ounce minimum for the hot stone and it was a larger portion than I expected. We had the Crispy Rice Avocado to accompany the Wagyu and it was the perfect choice. Finally, we ended with the Baked Alaska which was so yummy. Oh yeah, I had a cocktail as well. I can't remember the name but I wasn't impressed with it. Minus the cocktail and service, I can't wait for my next visit!

We went here in the Taylor Swift weekend, and dropped in early without a reservation at about 5pm on a Sunday. The interior is way too dark in a kind of a too much , too mysterious way. Also, it's freezing cold, but that's good because that matches the attitude of the servers. I guess they have a standard way that they like to serve and do everything.. . and in the order that they like to do things. But I think if a customer asks to look at the menu, they should be bringing you a menu, right away- especially if it's the first time you've been to Nobu. On your schedule, not theirs. The waiter kept trying to upsell us into ordering more than we wanted to initially( because we didn't know the food!)- and once we looked at the menus after they finally brought them in their own good time , we were never offered a menu again. In fact , they were pointedly taken, even though I clearly wanted to keep one. As you do, in a sushi restaurant. After we were finished through the courses- which were in a nonsensical order, they did offer us a dessert menu, but I was so unhappy in general and I just wanted to leave. Example of a pushy upsell - we just wanted still water and we were brought bottled water, which we didn't really need. Trust was already broken. I didn't really want to take the ordering guidance of someone who seemed indifferent to our desires. The cocktails were fine, but not exceptional. To say the staff was not friendly, is an understatement. I have been to Nobu in Los Angeles. I never felt as disregarded as I did in this New Orleans establishment. I've been to New Orleans multiple times and have had some of the best restaurant experiences overall . Friendly, helpful staff, happy, excited for you to experience their food- is not something you would say of Nobu. This is certainly at the bottom of my list . We would've ordered more, but we didn't really know the food or at least the four other people with me didn't know the food. And we all did feel our server's attitude was supercilious and condescending. This was one of the worst restaurant experiences I've had in recent memory and unfortunately, or fortunately , the food was mostly remarkable. One exception was the cut roll that came at the end. We got a yellowtail with scallion. It was fresh, but it was boring and tiny. Plus, you could not taste the scallion. The food is mostly amazing, (the crispy rice was the best I've had) . Waygu dumplings and gem Caesar truffle salad were standouts also. The food- pretty good, 4 stars. The service attitude - 1 star, for the absolutely ridiculous service. Make friends with your customers and don't make enemies of them. Seems simple. I just felt like the service was a dumb piece of performance art. I would never ever(ever) go back to this Nobu, again.

I wanted to love Nobu because I love sushi and a good a presentation, but I left hungry and with a 350 bill (split between two of us). Nobu certainly hits the mark with the aesthetic of the food, but the flavors just weren't there for some dishes. It felt like we're were paying for the experience as opposed to great tasting food. The yellowtail jalapeño was our favorite. Super fresh! The tuna tacos were solid, but the price point wasn't worth it for such a small bite. The crispy okra was our least favorite. It had no salt, and honestly feels a bit misplaced given the rest of the menu. We enjoyed the presentation of the hot stone wagyu. I loved a good table side show. I appreciated that it came with three sauces. The service was impeccable. The servers are knowledgeable and to walk people through the menu. I really hated that we were facing the casino floor. It was super loud and distracting. It took away from the atmosphere. Overall, I'm glad I tried it, but probably won't return. I went home and made eggs.

Food was amazing. Service was great and the venue was clean and modern. My phone died so no pics but everything was delicious. It's a nice place to go for lunch occasions or if you have a good win at the casino as the ala cart menu can get pricey

I had to try the infamous Nobu restaurant when I was on vacation in New Orleans. It was somewhat challenging to find the restaurant as it is inside the Caesar's casino. I did not have a reservation but there were plenty of tables and sat at the bar. The staff was very friendly and attentive and several individuals interacted with me over the course of my dining experience. The cocktails were the highlight: the lychee elderflower cocktail was sweet with the perfect combination of flavors and garnished with a lychee, the mango passion cocktail was also amazing and had a great mango flavor with an edible flower. The food was overall satisfying, I started with the crispy okra which was my favorite dish that came with a fish sauce dipping sauce. The avo crispy rice was not my favorite as it was cubes of fried rice on tooth picks that you dip in guacamole dip. The black cod butter lettuce was good but didn't get enough of the cod flavor in the dish and there were 2 bite size portions. The snow crab sushi piece had horseradish and rice but I probably would have preferred and brown sugar butter sauce. The soft shell crab roll was way too salty so no soy sauce was needed. I had to try and offset the saltiness with the ginger that comes with the dish. Unfortunately I got full, but there were a lot more dishes on the menu that I wanted to try so until next time. However I checked this one off the bucket list and overall the cocktails were what I would expect, but the food not so much. Service was incredible and had some nice conversations through out my dining experience.

What can I said that I haven't gushed about previously? I absolutely love this restaurant. This was our second visit in as many months. We brought friends this time to have the experience. We were not disappointed. You know a place is as awesome as you think when you invite others and they have the exact experience and response. We had a variety of things from the menu including shareable dishes. The Wagyu dumplings were a hit as well as the crispy okra, the black cod, and the sake. Staff was just as knowledgeable about the menu answering questions and offering additional insight as our previous visit. It is easy to forget that outside the restaurant you can walk a feet and be in Caesar's casino and hotel. Once you are inside Nobu you are transformed to another place. The gradual lighting also allows for a pleasant, gradual, non-jarring re-entry into the outside world. Nobu's menu is a delight to tastebuds. The flavors, the food all take you on a journey. Nobu is a consistent top tier establishment that earns 5 stars from me for its atmosphere, adult beverage selection, inspiring menu, knowledgeable staff, and capacity. It is accommodating to special date nights, small group gathers of friends or colleagues, individual dining, as well as family dining. There is a full bar so keep that in mind. This is one of my favorite places in NOLA.

Sat at the bar and ordered some sushi rolls. Food was ok, and I had to say that for the price, I expect more. The bartender was great, and very helpful.

nobu is great for a date night just to talk and eat. the food is amazing as always and never gets old my favorite is probably salmon with karashi-su miso and the wagyu dumplings. the service is always good here and never fails to amaze me. if you have time and want to have a chill night come here.

The food and service were 10 out of 5. Legit was in heaven with every bite. Every server was so sweet and happy to help and fully knowledgeable. Are you kidding with the set up tho? I legit had an ear in the casino while trying to enjoy dinner. Whoever designed this place should be flogged.

"Nobu New Orleans" It was a long work week, had several guests this weekend, extremely exhausted and with a fresh tasty pot of gumbo on the stove...we fought through to make our reservation! Folks of Nola we are glad we did! Greeted by the lovely ladies at the hostess stand, we were quickly escorted to our table in the middle of the restaurant to take in the ambiance, music and excellent service. Our servers name was Mike...he is now known as Big Mike because of his superb hospitality, food, drink and dessert recommendation's. **With two vegetarians in our party...the vegetarian options were equally delicious! We decided as a group to allow Chef E.M. to surprise us with food choices. Spoiler Alert...we ended the night with photos, contact information exchanged with Chef and Big Mike! Check out the awesome reel! Every selection from drinks, appetizers, entrees and dessert hit the SPOT! Nobu New Orleans is for all who desire an experience!

The food is very good and the place is elegant and quiet. Staff is very helpful, especially with any allergies and/or dietary preferences. They come every 5 seconds to ask you how's everything tasting and stopping you mid conversation which was a little much. The vegetables were slightly overpriced. They were very good, but nothing extraordinary, especially considering you're in New Orleans.

One of the best dining experiences we've had in New Orleans and maybe the best Omakese in the city. Cannot recommend this place enough! The ambiance and experience is fantastic, our service was top notch and our servers suggestions were so helpful and spot on. Great menu and so many good options to choose from. Drink pairings and choices are also delicious and fun. I can't say enough about the food and presentation. Absolutely incredible! We will be back and highly recommend.

The food, service and ambience were amazing. I look forward to going back. The service was very attentive

Nobu never disappoints. Service, food & ambiance. AllDat.com I've been trying to get to Nobu ATL & just stumbled into Nobu NO.

Atmosphere and ambiance is a vibe in itself. Food was fabulous. First time I visited I grabbed a lychee martini to start (sweet but amazing) and had several hot dishes. The rock shrimp was very okay, not bad but not worth the price. Spicy edamame and spicy garlic vegetables were HOTTTT, so beware if you're cautious with spice. Grapefruit on the rocks was similar to the lychee martini but much less sweet, so insanely good. Both visits I tried the tacos, picture included for size reference all tasted fabulous. I tried the wagyu, tuna, salmon, and lobster. My favorite hot dish was the beef toban yaki or the black cod miso. Wagyu dumplings were sold out on my first visit but I was able to snag them on my second, they were okay. Super rich for sure, the ground wagyu threw me off as I expected it to be sliced or diced. I wish I knew the names of all the dishes I tried on our second visit, but we did a chefs tasting and I had too many martinis to remember the names they gave us verbally

Very good. Expensive but the food, drinks, and service were top notch. It definitely has a dark, swanky vibe and sitting at the bar was perfect for me since I was solo. I'll visit again and bring my wife next time!

This was one of the best food I have ever had. I loved the tacos but they were tiny only one bite but if you order two of them then it is delicious and the donuts and Nutella ice cream dessert was amazing.

We sat for a min before we were greeted but then service was great. Everything we ordered was good even though I didn't like having to order all at once..I usually like to order different things as I'm there. It was a bit pricey for me I don't mind spending money when it's worth it but walking out hungry after spending $300 didn't seem right to me.
