Experts' Choice Award Nobu Fifty Seven
11 expert reviews
“Compared to the TriBeCa original, Nobu 57 is almost twice the size, meaning considerably less intimacy and attentiveness.”
– Gayot
Travel + Leisure "Nobu offers signature dishes such as yellowtail with jalapeno and black cod with miso, and traditional Japanese offerings include hibachi and an extensive choice of sushi and sashimi." Full review
Zagat "Nobu Matsuhisa's 20-year-old TriBeCa flagship "has lost none of its luster", still offering "exceptional" Japanese-Peruvian fare to an "attractive" crowd." Full review
BlackBook "Just like the downtown Nobu, except on steroids. And powerful hallucinogens. David Rockwell-designed duplex goes for baroque."
Michelin Guide "The Nobu name is revered the world over, but this NYC elder dressed by David Rockwell brings a local Japanese landscape to Gotham by way of bamboo, birch trees, and rattan mats."
Time Out "David Rockwell, who designed the original and its sidekick, crafted a spectacular showcase for Nobu Matsuhisa’s famed Latin-tinged sushi." Full review
New York Magazine Critic's Pick
"David Rockwell, who designed the original Nobu, goes to great (and no doubt greatly expensive) lengths to replicate the current fashion in New York Japanese restaurants."
The Infatuation "Nobu 57 is still a pretty damn good meal. It’s hard not to love those classic dishes, as long as you can swallow the hefty price tag." Full review
New York Times "PERHAPS no other recently opened restaurant raises the question of how much originality matters, of innovation's importance, as pointedly as Nobu 57 does." Full review
Not For Tourists "Uptown branch of wildly popular and renowned downtown sushi joints."
Where "The Uptown sister of Chef Nobu Matsuhisa’s renowned Downtown spots is a visual spectacle: abalone shell chandeliers, a terrazzo-and-bamboo-walled sushi bar, sculptural handwoven screens." Full review
