Ms HeleneDecember 14, 2014$100 omakase-so good, so filling. Lychee martini, bento hot chocolate molten cake with matcha ice cream, warm caramel bananas & toasted walnuts and mochi ice cream. Kill me now!
Kanari K.March 30, 2015Order Kushi Chicken & Shrimp, Crispy Rice w/Tuna, Rock Shrimp Tempura, House Cut Sushi, Mochi. All amazing! Staff sooo attentive & friendly, great ambience. Luv it ❤️

Queen LooshaJuly 11, 2015Dinner at Nobu 57 is a must. Personal favorites: Baby spinach lobster salad (I order the sour dressing) + sticky rice cakes with tuna (addicting) pic attached + Black cod or Sea bass. Yum.
Eric DallemagneJanuary 8, 2017David Rockwell, who designed the original Nobu, went to great lengths to replicate the current fashion in New York Japanese #restaurants for cavernous, excessively baroque rooms.
Catherine PayantMarch 15, 2018Ask for the limited foie gras dumplings (off menu!) they really are worth it!!! Also: Fantastic salmon sashimi with dried Miso (in photo).
Sam McCrimsonMarch 23, 2013One of my favs. Great atmosphere, amazing service, and of course unforgettable food. Aside from the must-have Black Cod with Miso, try the Stendhal chocolate mousse with rasp coulis - a 57 exclusive.
Fabian MartinSeptember 6, 2022Don’t get me wrong it’s good but you definitely pay a hefty price for the atmosphere here. The food itself isn’t that incredible. Strongly recommend the miso soup. Skip the sea urchin. Soap 8/10 🧼😊
Justin BJuly 28, 2013Enjoyable lunch atmosphere, slow on weekends. A little more pricey than most places, but worth it for knowing I'm eating quality raw fish. Service was very good, on top of everything... Team effort.
Renaud #March 28, 2018Great ambiance at Nobu 57. We enjoyed the Lobster shiitake salad with spicy lemon dressing, Chilean seabass umani miso, Crispy rice with spicy tuna (pictured).
AljoharahFebruary 8, 2022Had an amazing dinner here! The food is incredibly good; go with California and Shrimp Tempura rolls, Black Cod with Miso. Lychee mango tasted really good!
ShawAugust 12, 2014Good place for a power lunch in midtown, particularly if your bankers are footing the bill
hania albraikanDecember 19, 2015good food, wonderful atmosphere and incredible service. The portion of the food was very huge !! Don't order too much,
- Go with the classics - Miso Cod, Rock Shrimp, Sashimi Salad and punctuate the meal with some sushi. More sake please. 🍣
I can't even begin to start naming my favorites -black cod, tuna chips, lobster tacos, tiradito, spicy crab, anticucho chicken. So good, everything elegantly prepared. Dessert has to be a bento box.
Paula BuzzoMarch 30, 2018Stunning decor, excellent attendance and delicious food. The Classic Bento Box is a good choice. As dessert, try mochi.
Simran DassDecember 29, 2022Absolutely loved the shrimp “rock” tempura, crispy rice with tuna, jalapeño dish below & the black miso cod. Would recommend!
Lisa Yvette LNovember 18, 2013Love this place! First time here in ages and with my friend who was the Chef who opened the Nobu location in Milan, Italy. What a treat.....extra special with a lychee on top! #danteboccuzzi
Colin LeeJuly 11, 2016The bar seating (sofas) is casual, relaxing but comfortable for couples. Miso black cod was not as excellent as hyped up, but still good and its a large portion.
Ryan McDonnellOctober 21, 2012omakase tonight was different because it was also hot and cold dishes in addition to a sushi selection and for a unique experience ask to be seated at sushi bar. green tea ice cream.
Ask for the Kobe beef dumplings. They aren't on the menu. Act like you always get them when you go there, and don't take no for an answer. You're welcome.
Antonio CalderonFebruary 24, 2023Excellent Japanese restaurant. Everything was great. If you are in NYC and like Japanese gastronomy, you should visit Nobu.
Fabian HerreraNovember 11, 2014Probably the best decor and ambience of all the Nobu's. Always ask for the specials and make sure to order the black cod miso!
Odile RoujolJanuary 13, 2020What I like in NY is that you can eat alone ... and nobody will bother you . Nobu
Mafe Sotillo LairetMay 31, 2017Amazing! Try the black code miso, omakase, yellow tail sashimi, rock shrimp. Don't forget the mochis for dessert
Maria StylesNovember 5, 2011Trendy, fun hot spot. big selection of tempura, my favs are the scallops, shrimp, sweet potato and green beans. as main course i like the lobster or tenderloin and hibachi beef.
Natalie KSeptember 1, 2019This place is so good. Crispy tuna is amazing. Yellowtail jalapeño sashimi is amazing. Everything is amazing.
Ingvild M. PlosivDecember 3, 2014The Bento Box is absolutely delicious (the dinner one, that is. The dessert bento box was a bit disappointing). Great lunch!
Andreas CohenMarch 18, 2012Miso Cod & Bento Box dessert with fondant au chocolat are wonderful. Forget the sushi. Diner demographic has changed and no longer a destination for the beautiful people
Stephanie DeDeckerJune 12, 2019Got the Nobu Bento Box for lunch - food was amazing, definitely a lot though
- Mafe Sotillo LairetMay 31, 2017Amazing!! Try the black code miso, omakase, yellow tail sashimi, rock shrimp and for dessert the mochis
Eaters HeavenApril 20, 2016Japanese Uni, Blue fin Otoro and Kampachi sushi. Rock shrimp tempura as app. Tempura a bit mushy. Uni & Otoro was fabulous.
JD MaloneNovember 9, 2014You can't go wrong here! Also the Nobu Box you take home and make sushi with is awesome even for the beginner.
Alan GarciaMay 24, 2014Tiradito Nobu style. Eat it all day for breakfast lunch & dinner. Or enjoy as light fare at the bar. Simply amazing.
Jonathan DeverNovember 17, 2014The sushi is amazing, if you go make sure to get the tempura shrimp and finish off with the bento box. Absolutely divine.
the black cod with miso is delicious, but it's a lot easier to eat ordering it by the piece in lettuce wraps.
Kay 5January 16, 2017Trendy spot. Almost everything tastes amazing, especially rock shrimp tempura and crispy rice. Great service.
Gary BlumJuly 14, 2013Simply amazing from start to finish. Great food (live octopus, miso black cod, spicy rock shrimp and more) and a great waitress
Kenny ImafidonFebruary 7, 2016This place is a can't miss. The staff is amazing and the food is out of this world. I am never disappointed here.
Elena HatibJuly 4, 2018Nobu always has great food and the best service. I love their simple sushi roles and desserts the most!
Kristyne Farinacci EvanoskiNovember 15, 2015Everything you try is absolutely clean, healthy and delish! You'd never know how healthy your eating! My new favorite restaurant!
Eric LeebowJanuary 23, 2014Excellent mushroom salad and must try the brussel sprouts. Perhaps the best ever.
Leah Zelazny PoswolskyAugust 12, 2012Amazing dessert -- order the hazelnut and cream puff so heavenly...yellowtail jalepeno roll is to die for...good place to share dishes together.
honeywhatscooking.comApril 10, 2015Loved the Peruvian Chicken. Miso Cod really good and buttery. Pineapple Martini was meh.
NickyJune 18, 2022You get the full experience here. The wait staff here is excellent. The food is superior. A must try!
Reuters Business TravellerApril 1, 2011The place investment bankers in New York go when they fancy a Japanese; fusion chef Nobu Matsuhisa's miso-marinated black cod, rock shrimp with spicy mayonnaise have stood the test of time.
BravoNovember 15, 2010The ambiance and décor alone is reason enough to dine here. However, its innovative cuisine is a treat for all of your senses. -Lynda Erkiletian, Real Housewives of DC- Bina KijmedeeMay 30, 2011Black cod in miso is simply heavenly! Not really an authentic Japanese restaurant in my opinion, but definitely a special one with a lots of great Japanese-based dishes.

"One of the best Japanese restaurants outside of Japan. Ask for any special sushi/sashimi options of the menu -- they may have something very nice. Also the Ohmi beef is amazing (but $) nocheap :))"
