Nobu Tribeca
Virtually anywhere in the world today, the name Nobu is synonymous with exceptional modern Japanese cuisine. That legacy now extends to over 20 locations in a dozen countries, including 3 restaurants in Manhattan. But it all began in Tribeca in 1994, as a partnership between nightlife entrepreneur Drew Nieporent, actor Robert DeNiro, and chef Nobu Matsuhisa. From opening night, it has been consistently reviewed marvelously, and is a magnet for celebrities and throngs of foodies. The vibe in the bustling dining room is comfortable and energetic, with plates streaming from the kitchen as artistic as they are flavorful. For a special dining experience, make a reservation in advance and be certain to order up the black cod in miso as part of the evening.
