We have been to both the downtown Nobu and the Nobu Fifty-Seven in midtown- and both are great for classics. We love coming with family for a nice Sunday lunch splitting a bunch of plates. Our favorite dish here is the black miso cod, and we always get some kumamoto oysters. If you really want to treat yourself, order the Kobe beef that you can cook yourself on the hot stone. This is an old reliable name that speaks for itself, and lives up to its hype.
