Acclaimed Japanese seafood & tasting menus by chef Nobu Matsuhisa
"I started working at Nobu in Aspen, Colorado; during the off season there I was able to stage in different cities and countries, which broadened my experience." - The MICHELIN Guide
"A celebrity-chef sushi destination with locations in major Strip resorts, known for high-quality Japanese-Peruvian–influenced sushi and a polished, resort-friendly dining experience." - Janna Karel
"This Nobu Matsuhisa restaurant in a mining-era Victorian home is an Aspen institution. The cavernous lower level is home to the main dining room, which welcomes a mix of billionaires with black cards, ski bums with trust funds, and celebrities with entourages alongside regular folks straight off the slopes. Find Nobu favorites here served family-style, like rock shrimp tempura, yellowtail jalapeño, and black cod miso, plus a list of specials from the fresh fish flown in daily. Nobu remains one of the toughest reservations to get in town, although you can always try your luck at the upstairs sushi bar and lounge, which is an easier table to get and takes walk-ins." - katie shapiro
"For sushi—and a scene—there’s still no better place in town: housed in a centuries‑old Victorian residence, Chef Nobu Matsuhisa’s spot is where you order the black cod and rock shrimp tempura while seeing what celebrities you can spot out of the corner of your eye." - Elise Taylor
