This was my first time visiting Nobu that to in Bay area. Plenty of veg options. You need to reserve your table like 2 weeks before. So plan ahead. The hospitality is great. They have lodging upstairs and restaurant downstairs.

They can accommodate gluten-free and dairy-free but you’ll have a more limited menu. I chose sushi and sushi “tacos” with lettuce substituted for the typical tortilla. For dessert, you can try the sorbets with inventive flavors.

The food is great and service attentive. We gave them a budget to stick to and they put together a menu to feed our group. Everything was delicious!

This place has significantly gotten worse. Drinks are weak, but sweet and tasty (if that’s your thing). The small bites are overpriced and lack flavor. However, service was decently good, except for the servers constantly trying to take our dishes away when we clearly had food on the plate!

Food was amazing but unfriendly towards picky eaters. The service was ok with the waitresses having high attentiveness. The atmosphere was fantastic. Miso soup was either too sweet or too salty

Incredible food. Was able to get seats at the bar with very little wait. We provided preferences to the waiter and he guided our courses. Didn’t have anything that was not delicious. If you want a table I’d recommend making a reservation.

Food was good. Specifically came for the black cod. The drinks were also good and 2 made me tipsy. Unfortunately saw a lot of parents with their kids. This is just not the type of place for children. Yet it’s Palo Alto what can you do?

My recent visit to Nobu was absolutely delightful! The atmosphere was cozy, with subtle décor that made me feel right at home. The food was delicious, and there was a great variety of flavors that made for a truly memorable meal. The staff were also incredible – they were friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable. All in all, it was a wonderful experience that I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a great restaurant to relax and enjoy some excellent food.

I went to this particular Nobu twice, once at the beginning on December and the second time at the beginning of January.

My girlfriend took me here for my birthday recently, it was quite the experience. Our waitress was very kind and helped us get to know the menu and popular items. The drinks where very tasty and went down easy. As for the food, it was very fresh. But in all honesty there are better sushi spots on the peninsula that cost much less money. I’d go back for a celebration or special occasion, but I would suggest going elsewhere for better and more reasonably priced sushi.
