Nobu new orleans was an amazing experience. It is the newest nobu and very impressive setting. Wait staff excellent.. Food amazing. We did mostly small plates and sashimi. Everything so fresh. Bento box lava cake was delicious. My third nobu experience. Twice in vegas and I have to rank this one right up there with the nobu Paris Las Vegas.

We had a great meal and experience. My wife order the filet, my daughter had the shrimp and I had the strip. We treated it like family style and shared with everyone. The flavors were excellent and the Pittsburgh style was perfect. The sides are large and shareable too. Jared was our server and he never left us wanting or needing anything, and didn’t hover the entire time either. It was a great balance. We will be back!

Very good food! Big servings! Loved the rabbit dish even though I could not eat it all! Other parties had lasagna that was individually served in a big pan for each. So close to the Orpheum theater which we attended thst evening. All so very convenient snd good. Plenty of time for everything.
