| - I'm a Nobu fan and generally enjoy visiting locations in different cities. The food and service here are par for the course - I sampled some perennial favorites, including the rock shrimp tempura, crispy rice, new style sashimi, and miso black cod, and all were executed without issue. Service was attentive and friendly, and the interior design is evocative of the old Tribeca location.
However, the restaurant location/setting was disappointing and poorly representative of the brand, to say the least. I have no idea who thought it would be a good idea to open up a Nobu at the Hard Rock Hotel; it would seem that their target demographics do not intersect at all. This is the only Nobu I have been to that has deemed it necessary to post a dress code at the entrance, which only helped minimally.
And rather unfortunately, the restaurant itself does not have bathrooms; one is forced to exit into the casino area to use the public restrooms, which feature needle disposal boxes.
