“Once in a long long time, the universe gives you something to experience that is quite exceptional and cannot be found elsewhere. This was at Nobu’s. From the first to the last bite, it was an absolute flavor and texture roller coaster. The food was prepared with such care, master skill, and love that every single bite felt like something extremely special. The quality and freshness of the dishes was unparalleled. The pairings were delightful. Emma, who was our server was extremely knowledgeable and described the dishes in fine detail. This experience should not be rushed and was worth every penny. As we dined at the bar where the sushi was prepared, we chatted with Mr. Nobu, his wife, and his son. We felt like home guests and not like store customers. It was an anniversary we will cherish and never forget. Thank you Mr. Nobu, family, and staff. See y’all soon.”
“It was delicious and unique. I’ve never eaten Uni like this. Wasabi is used in most courses, be warned. A true STL gem, uniquely intimate with only 6 seats at the sushi bar. It’s just you, Chef Nobu and his wife, son, and a server Emma. Service was impeccable. Wine pairing was a plus. Reserve ahead!”
“What an exceptional dining experience, made truly memorable by fresh, high-quality ingredients and a fantastic set menu that highlights the best of the season. Each course was beautifully prepared by Chef Nobu himself, who was warm, personable, and engaging throughout the meal. His attention to detail and passion for the craft made the evening feel special and intimate. The service team was equally outstanding and were attentive, friendly, and thoughtful from start to finish. Altogether, it was an amazing and unforgettable evening that perfectly blended incredible food with genuine hospitality. Be sure to make reservations!”
“This was the most unique dining experience I have had. The setting felt very exclusive. The food was all very good, and even fish I had tried before and disliked at other places was very good. The food was fresh, and we left feeling satisfied but not stuffed.”
“This was one of the most amazing, intimate, and well orchestrated dining experiences I have ever had. Chef Nobu and his family welcome you as if you are old friends dining in their home. Every little detail is executed with great care and precision to provide the best sushi experience you can get anywhere close to St. Louis. We are grateful for this opportunity to enjoy a true master chef in his own element and cannot wait to return. You can tell that providing this experience is what makes Chef Nobu happy! Thank you!!”
