What is there bad to even say about Nobu? Everything was so fresh and they truly pushed my limits on what I'm comfortable with but I was let down by nothing. The yellowtail jalapeño was life changing. The salad was great but it wasn't even on the menu! So good luck getting that again. read more

Back in the day this was the place to go for sushi in Dallas. Unfortunately, that day was a long time ago. NOBU has become a very overpriced and underwhelming destination at the Crescent Hotel. When you come into the restaurant and people are in shorts and flip-flops and you're spending $150 per person there are numerous other places that you can go to in the Dallas area that deliver a much more classy and exciting vibe. The shining star at NOBU to us was the miso glazed black cod. We could've stopped right there. The minuscule sushi tacos, for $10 apiece. We're tasty but absurdly priced. At any of the well-known sushi bars in Dallas, you can get a California roll for eight to $10 here you can spend $23 for one crazy isn't it? The service was amazing. I'll give them that there were no less than 10 different waiters that came to our table to change the plates six different times constantly filling water and offering to bring us anything that we may need our waiter. Vincent did an excellent job. Overall, I have to say that I think NOBU has missed the mark in the Dallas Fort Worth sushi business. read more

We went for brunch. Fish quality is amazing. But way too much rice to really enjoy it. Salad was amazingly good. Hot staton is lacking and not very special. Dessert strawberry moose was really good, each of us had 4 of it.. beside that Tuna sushi was the best thing. Service is good and they come to take the plate frequently. Space looks nicely designed and it's located in a beautiful hotel. However still feel a little bit overrated with the price you paid there, not much selections to choice from. read more

If you're looking for great food, good service, and great ambiance at a $$$ price, this is it. I loved everything that I ate, especially the oyster shooters, the Wagyu, and the fish with the fried rice balls and tuna. Expect to order quite a few dishes in order to be full. This is a great place for date night or celebrations. Food presentation is 10/10. read more

This restaurant was exactly what I expected, brilliant. The yellowtail jalapeños sashimi was light and fresh with the gluten-free Ponzu sauce. The jalapeño cauliflower made for the perfect healthy entrée, not too spicy, but packed with flavor, and the gluten-free cappuccino dessert was just over the top with vanilla ice cream, a sort of cappuccino mousse, caramel and candied pecans tucked away at the bottom. I highly recommend the cappuccino dessert whether you are gluten-free or not! I will definitely return to this restaurant, the interior was just beautiful. Noise level made it slightly difficult to hear across the table with a party of six. Valet parking out front was a little bit of a hassle upon arrival, but easy to depart. (parking is not validated.) read more

I came here for my birthday dinner with my friends and loved every minute of my dining experience. We were seated in the lounge for happy hour and small bites. I could go on and on raving about how unique and fresh everything tasted but I think pictures speak louder than words. We ordered some traditional Japanese items such as snapper nigiri and karaage. We also ordered Nobu's creations. Everything was delicately cooked and beautifully presented to us. The lounge vibe was perfect as it allowed my friends and I to have our own space while being able to see the sushi bar from the side. Miguel was our server and he was super attentive and courteous throughout the whole night. The food runners were also very polite when stopping by our table asking if we were enjoying our food. My dinner ended with a special dessert. It was a piece of their Caramel Sobacha Brownie. I loved the earthy chocolatey taste of the tea and chocolate combined together. I had a very pleasant birthday celebration, thank you again! read more

I'm obsessed with the quality of the service and food at Nobu! The servers were very knowledgeable about the menu and provided great advice. Yellowtail jalapeño was delicious. Crispy rice with spicy tuna was okay. The spicy tuna was great, but the rice was a little too crunchy. Tasted like a burnt tater tot. The highlight of the night was the miso black cod. Omg! I could eat that every day. Desserts and drinks were amazing, too. It's a little pricey, but great place to go for special occasions! read more

Went for the brunch buffet on Sunday, great selection of nigiri, salad, and other hot items like fried chicken, prime ribeye, and baked salmon. The panda cotta was very good too. Drinks aren't included but the service was excellent, staff came and even folded your napkin towel when you got up to get more food. Vibes were good with a live DJ playing seamless beats in the background. read more

nobu sunday brunch is a solid all-you-can-eat brunch in the US. i do feel like the houston location had a little more variety when it came to desserts and hot food? but either way, i definitely got my money's worth from eating all the salmon nigiri!! so so yummy! i just wish there was a little less rice! read more

This was such a fun experience! We finally got around to trying the Nobu brunch, and I think our group consensus was that it was definitely worth the visit to try it, even though it is not an experience we would revisit (purely given the price). The sushi was definitely the standout--so many fresh, flavorful nigiris and pieces! I also loved the rock shrimp and the miso soup station. Beautiful interior and great service. read more

We came to Nobu Dallas with a big group and had a fantastic experience. The fish was incredibly fresh across the board, and two people in our party did the omakase, which let them try a wide variety of unique and beautifully presented dishes. All the rolls we ordered were solid, but the uni nigiri was the favorite at our table. That said, while the fish was all fresh, I was hoping for a little more pizzazz on the nigiri to make it really pop. Personally, my top dish was their signature yellowtail sashimi with jalapeño. The atmosphere was dark and moody, giving the place a cool, upscale vibe. Overall, a great night with great food. read more

I would not sleep on the $80 all-you-can-eat sunday brunch. Tons of sashimi so you can be sure to get your money's worth. Excellent service. We got the freddo carajillo cocktails and it was one of my favorite cocktails ever. A little dark and moody in there so maybe more of a winter spot. The avocado is so yummy too. read more

Came for the weekend brunch which offered a wide array of sushi, nigiri, and other Japanese cuisine. Every piece of food I put in my mouth was delicious. The sushi practically melted in my mouth. Even the dessert options were pretty good even though I'm not usually a fan of Asian desserts. It's absolutely worth it to me considering the quality of what you're getting though some might find it's not enough food. read more

Top notch service, amazing food is the standard here. I've never had a bad experience here, dining at Nobu. The wagyu beef on hot stone was amazing as always. The mock tails was super delicious. I had something called Verde something a little spicy but just so refreshing! I really enjoyed the mushroom shiitake salad. I've never had this before and it was so so good must try! The crispy rice plus tuna was a surprise to me because it came out the constructive, but I really like the concept. You can't go wrong here! read more

I've been to the Nobu in Dallas a few different times, and I also make it a point to visit Nobu in any city I travel to -- this location definitely lives up to the brand. The staff is always welcoming and attentive, and the food is consistently excellent. The Wagyu Dumplings and Yellowtail Sashimi are must-orders for me, and the Lychee Martini is amazing. I also love trying a different dessert each visit -- it's hard to pick a favorite, but the Buttermilk Donuts and Miso Cappuccino are both standout options. Located in the Crescent Hotel, this spot is a favorite of mine -- I love coming here because the ambiance is absolutely breathtaking. The surrounding area is stunning, and overall, every visit has been a luxurious, five-star experience. I'll absolutely continue coming back. read more

This place is hands-down one of the best places I've had sushi happy hour. Everything from the food to the seat to the service was over the moon! Decided to make a reservation for a small group right when they opened at 5 PM on a weekday. It was pretty empty, so the service was even elevated more so than I thought. We were seated promptly a few minutes after 5 PM. And they also had a place to wait since we were a little early. They even gave us some menus as we were waiting to be seated. We ordered a bunch of things off of the happy hour menu to try as much as we could. My favorite things were the crispy rice with spicy salmon. The rice was hot and crispy of course, and the salmon was fresh and flavored well. We ordered a bunch of the happy hour rolls, and they came out on a large circular plate with bamboo leaves and they were sorted very beautifully. I love the salmon avocado roll as well as the tuna roll. Other things that I really liked for the yellowtail sashimi. The happy hour drinks were honestly one of the best things too . Lychee martini was good, as was the margarita. Also ordered a French 75, which was made perfectly. The service was also fantastic. Waiters came about every 10 minutes to make sure we had enough water refills and they were very mindful when our drinks were low and asked us if we wanted another one. We also had a food allergy at the table and they made sure that everything was safe. For parking, we Uber, but I think there is a parking garage below. Not sure if they validate parking so I would call before to clarify. read more

Since we moved to Dallas 14 years ago we are going to NOBU few times a year . Yesterday, we again went to Nobu Dallas to celebrate my daughter's 24th birthday, expecting a memorable fine dining experience. Unfortunately, the evening was deeply disappointing. While the ambiance was beautiful, the food quality did not match the reputation or price point of Nobu. We ordered Omakase dinner paying $215 each person. We were very disappointed! The 8 course dinner was full of Mackerel fish which is cheap smelly ! Omakase is chef's choice . Our chef chose cheap fish instead of yellow tail , shrimp white fish or even good portion of salmon ! Only one tuna ! The smelly Mackerel cause us to throw up at night ! Service was good as we expect from Nobu . I didn't like my $18 piece beef taco. For a special family celebration, we expected far better quality food! What was most disappointing was that such an important occasion for our daughter ended with frustration instead of joy. Fine dining is not only about expensive dishes -- it is about consistency, attention to detail, and making guests feel valued. Sadly, that did not happen here. I truly hope Nobu Dallas takes guest feedback seriously and improves the experience for future customers. read more

This was my first visit to Nobu Dallas, and I found it comparable to many of the other locations on the east coast and Las Vegas. Living in the Bay Area, I bi-annually visit the Palo Alto location, but the decor and selection there aren't as remarkable or memorable as here. The food was excellent, as expected, and the service was top-notch. While we enjoyed our visit, the scale and tall ceilings made it feel less cozy than some fine dining establishments. It's a great place for a large party with family or colleagues. This Nobu is located inside a stunning hotel and shopping plaza, with the added perk of free validated garage parking. read more

This review is solely for the brunch buffet. We are usually skeptical of buffets but since it was Nobu, we figured it was worth a try. Well, quality was good but you get a limited, basic sushi selection. That's fair. Can't expect more than that for buffet style. You do get prime rib, some waffles, chicken, and delicious desserts. However, at $75 per person... not worth a second try for us. Probably not worth it to even try once. We also had our 4 year old with us and it was $40 for her. She ate 3 pieces of chicken and a bite of waffle. Hah. Anyway, cool atmosphere and it is a nice place. We had good service. Definitely not worth it for brunch. Also, don't bring a kid unless he/she can scarf down a lot of sushi or prime rib to make it worth $40. Would probably still return for their regular menu items and not the brunch buffet. read more

Happy hour here is incredible! The prices are affordable, and the quality is so high. Our group got a variety of rolls for happy hour, but my favorite was the salmon avocado roll.

It was creamy and delicious Parking is hard to find on the streets, but there's a garage downstairs. Service is very good too. The place is very classic and clean read more

Nobu is a straight five-star experience. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels upscale, calm, and perfectly curated, and the service matches that same level of professionalism. Every dish we tried was extremely fresh and beautifully presented, and you can taste the quality in every bite. The sushi and rolls were flawless, the flavors were balanced, and everything came out timed perfectly. Even the small details, like the table setup and overall vibe, make it feel like a special night out. Nobu completely lives up to the hype, and it's the kind of place you leave already wanting to come back. read more

Came here for a work function. They offered the full course experience, which was a beautifully curated journey of flavors and textures, starting with simple yet flavorful Edamame & Shishito Peppers sprinkled with sea salt, which set the stage perfectly. The Salmon Karashi Sumiso is a standout, offering a unique balance of tang and umami. The Tai New Style Sashimi is delicate and fresh, and the assorted Nigiri and Rolls showcase high-quality fish with expert craftsmanship. The King Crab Tempura in Amazu Ponzu is crispy yet tender, perfectly complemented by the tangy ponzu sauce. The iconic Black Cod with Miso is as buttery and flavorful as expected, and the Beef Tenderloin with Anticucho Sauce adds a spicy depth. The dessert finale of Donut and Mochi ice cream provides a delightful sweet touch, ending the meal on a high note. Overall, this course offers an impressive variety of classic Nobu dishes, each thoughtfully prepared and deeply satisfying. read more

I really wanted to enjoy this place, but it kinda was a miss for me. We came for happy hour on a Wednesday night. We ordered: Edamame-10/10 Crispy spicy salmon- 0/10 -rice was sooo hard and didn't taste fresh Beef tacos-:2/10 -they were very cold Spicy tuna-8:10-probably the best Chicken -8/10 Shrimp-8/10 -very lemony but I like lemon, my bf wasn't a fan. We got margaritas and they were okay, not the best I've ever had. The service was great. However, I expected the food to be a lot better. It was very mid and even happy hour costs $$$. The ambiance is very nice and beautiful inside. read more

Solid three stars. I would much rather prefer a traditional steakhouse or Brazilian steakhouse. If you like Japanese food and sushi this is for you. It was okay. Food: the wagu Taco was the best dish I had. For of flavor. I should have just ordered 6 or those tacos. That was the best dish I had lol. The sushi was okay. The steak was okay. The dessert was decent. This just isn't my type of restaurant or food. Again if you like seafood or Japanese food this is right up your alley. Now the customer service is top notch. The server Gigi was excellent. She was easy five stars. She took great care of us. I probably wouldn't come back here. I'm glad I tried it but this is definitely a one and done for me. read more

This has always been on my list to try, and a friend and I stumbled across it for dinner. This was our first time and we knew not a thing. I would say this is tapas style/ it is encouraged to get a lot of little things and share with others. We ordered a plethora of stuff: salmon and tuna tacos, fried rice balls and tuna, yellowtail with caviar, black miso cod (one of their specialties) and a truffled sea bass. Both fish dishes so far are in the lead for best food I've had in 2025; a must try in my opinion! Ya'll when I tell you this was some of the best seafood I've had-- and I've gone to many a fancy "upscale" seafood joints-- this was the best. Our waiter was Norbert, and he was great. He answered all our questions and his recommendations were solid. My friend and I went last night, and have already planned our return! read more

First time at Nobu Dallas, We ordered oysters, toradito ( our favorite), lobster ceviche, tons of nigiri. All was absolutely delicious. The lychee martini was my absolute favorite. Overall food was great and service was top notch. The only negative comment I have about my experience was that when I was having dinner, a cockroach came very close to our food. They did comp our drinks but I left absolutely disgusted that they could be that close to the food. read more

Visited this place for a birthday dinner and was underwhelmed. The customer service is excellent. There's apparently no dress code at all. The quality and taste of food is not good. We tried the Cod, edamame, shrimp tempura, and a few rolls. The flavor was non existent. Ten and Elephant east is much better. The lychee Martini was delicious. I wouldn't recommend it return. read more

We've been here twice and both times the food has been exemplary. They have typical sushi, but they also have a variety of hot dishes which I think changes regularly. Our favorites were the rock shrimp tempura with creamy spicy sauce and the chilean sea bass with ponzu truffle. We also tried the crispy rice, seafood ceviche, and vegetable tempura. For two people, I would recommend 4-5 plates to share to have a satisfied stomach since their portion sizes are small. read more

I walked in on a Friday night with no reservation so I sat in the bar area. The design was sort of trendy Texas if that is a thing. Lively and Dimly lit with top 100 music in the background. Although the restaurant was crowded you'd think I was the only person there. Each time my water was below half they refilled it. If I got up they refolded my napkin. They held and timed each dish perfectly. They brought them out one by one. As soon as I finished one dish someone cleared them and my next dish was brought out. Started with an uni shooter. Had yuzu sauce and a quail egg. Nice smooth creamy shot 10/10. Lychee martini was so smooth. Right amount of juice and the lychee was fresh and sweet 10/10. The crispy rice with salmon was good while hot but the longer it sat it seemed to get gummy or chewy 4/10. Hearts of palm salad was very flavorful and refreshing. Hearts of palm had a nice snap as well 10/10. The TORO...so buttery and fatty. I had to order it twice 10/10. The yellow tail was nice and fresh 9/10. Athena and D were extremely attentive. They made me feel really cared for which made this not just a meal but an experience. Still on a high from night! read more

Some of the best sushi I have had in my life!! I lived in CA my whole life and never got to experience the infamous Nobu Malibu location. So we had to come try the Dallas location. It did not disappoint. From the start, their parking was very convenient. Either a self park underground lot that is validated or a valet service. Both really close to the actual entrance of the restaurant. They were all so sweet and accommodating when we asked to move to a booth since we had my rambunctious toddler with us. The server helped us tremendously understanding all the dishes and helping us choose what to order. Nothing disappointed. It was all really good. Definitely recommend coming here and honestly pretty kid friendly. read more

We're usually big fans of Nobu, but this visit to Nobu Dallas was a letdown. We splurged on the $230 tasting menu for my daughter's birthday, and honestly, it just wasn't worth it. The food was hit or miss -- hot dishes came out lukewarm and overcooked, the soup was cold, and the tempura shrimp was soggy. Even dessert was bland and basic. For the price, you expect every plate to wow you, and that just didn't happen. Service from our main waiter was great, but the hostess set the wrong tone from the start. We asked nicely for a table in the main dining room (to enjoy the Nobu vibe instead of being tucked in the side room), and she literally rolled her eyes and walked off. When I asked if something was wrong, she refused to answer. Not exactly the welcome you'd expect from Nobu. Also, for $150 tip service should have been amazing! But, the staff was pleasant but every course was a rushed explanation and served reaching over everyone for service. My advice? Skip the tasting menu and order directly from the menu -- you'll get better food, more value, and hopefully a better experience. read more

Just don't , been going here since they opened over 15 yrs ago. Sushi subpar to central Market, prices are higher than ever. Dinner flow was so slow, 15min between dishes. Spent $1400 on just food portion for 5 ppl. Lacking on plating/presentation, technique, cutting corners on strangest things . Go to uchi, it won't take 3.5 hrs , light years ahead. It's a shame bc nobu is still great in many other cities. All the regular staff are gone for a reason. read more

Nobu was on my friends bucket list so we decided to make a reservation for happy hour during our visit to Dallas. We tried different appetizers and a couple of the specialty drinks while relaxing g at the bar. All of them were wonderful and very well done. They tasted fresh and had fantastic ingredients that complement each other. My favorite by far was a black cod butterfish! This beautiful, soft light fish just disappears in your mouth and the crunchy topping gave the wrap a wonderful consistency in each bite. The ambiance was very romantic as well and I would love to visit again with my husband. In addition, the bartender was very helpful when deciding on our choices and had great drink recommendations.

We had come here as a group of 6 for my birthday. Overall it was a fun experience and the food was good, but not quite there for the price and brand. We ordered a decent amount and I enjoyed the cold dishes the most (yellowtail jalapeño was my favorite) along with the famous black miso cod. Some of the rolls were less impressive since they tasted like the same as more affordable sushi places we regularly go to. They did give a dessert on the house for my birthday so we really appreciated the gesture!! Overall a more elevated ambiance and experience that you're paying for but just knowing that the food wasn't exceptionally tasty. read more
