"An LA‑imported Thai restaurant transplanted into a Las Vegas hotel environment; the food carries the restaurant's West Coast identity, but the dining atmosphere is undercut by the resort setting—slot machines and casino noise bleed into the experience—making the restaurant feel imported rather than rooted in a neighborhood context." - Jaya Saxena
"While the chef already has Nobu at Caesars Palace, attached to his very first hotel that opened in 2013, and Nobu at Virgin Hotels, he now plans to open a third location in early 2022 at Paris Las Vegas." - Susan Stapleton
"At Nobu, it’s a toss up between which of Nobu Matsuhisa’s signature dish to order. The yellowtail sashimi with jalapeño comes with a garlic puree, thinly sliced serrano pepper, bathed in yuzu-soy sauce, and garnished with cilantro. The floral yuzu combines with the soy to bring out the sweetness of the mild yellowtail, while the pepper adds a pop of heat. The black cod yuzu miso uses Alaskan cod, a fattier version out of cold water, cured in Den Miso. Then it’s topped with hajikami, a sprout of ginger that’s pickled. Find Nobu at Caesars Palace and Virgin Hotels." - Susan Stapleton
"Nobu Matsuhisa opened his first Nobu in Las Vegas at the resort, bringing his blend of Japanese dishes using Peruvian ingredients, such as black miso cod and yellowtail jalapeño, dishes that define his career. Now the restaurant reemerges at the newly opened Virgin Hotels with a bar area expanded to twice its original size." - Susan Stapleton
"Virgin Hotels plans to feature the legendary sushi restaurant Nobu." - Susan Stapleton
