The only reason to visit Nobu is for their view. We came here for lunch and thought everything we had were very average. Tacos was alright, small portion and expensive. Bento lunch boxes are clearly overpriced but it’s the view I guess. Our maki roll had a strand of hair which was a complete turn off. They changed a new roll for us which was very nice of them.I enjoyed the dessert most - Suntory whisky cappuccino was very good but the size of the cup is for espresso. How is that “cappuccino” to begin with? And no their desserts are not cheap to begin with. Could work on their very pathetic portions.The best part of the entire lunch was the service.... I have to admit that the manager (he was in proper coat) handled the situation very well. He apologised to us, changed the roll and gave the dessert as a token of apology. If all their staffs are like him then their service would be superb. The regular wait staffs definitely need more training - they don’t seem to understand customer’s request and tried to clear plates when we were not even done. All in all, I thought my experience at Nobu was very very average - if they are considered as fine dining standards. Need to buck up and improve, if you are charging fine dining price, prove it with quality and service, not just for the view. Nevertheless, thank you Mr Manager for the nice gesture, at least you made our visit a bit more pleasant.
