Nobu
Rating ***/5
Has it become much too touristy for it's own good? It's still an excellent place for a steep drink. But the thing that struck us at Nobu on 57th was the disdainful disinterest of the hostess. She can make or break an evening. And it is with regret that we must fail her in that department. The food was served just right, well informed waiting staff and a hip ambiance met with some personality. That said, we would recommend Hakkasan (London) over Nobu in overall experience.
The Peruvian sashimi was worth mention. The mixologists are talented. In short it has the makings of a perfect formula, but it lacks soul. Enough said
