Another great meal at Nobu. Cooked food was awesome. Nigiri was great too. Sushi rolls are just ok and basic. They could use a little upgrade.

The space is dark, food is remarkable and service is top notch. We had quite a few dishes including the crispy Brussels sprouts, sashimi moriawase, New York strip and short ribs. All were delicious. The evening we went, they had special cocktails celebrating the Wicked production at the Pantages across the street. Our celebrant had the Glinda, which was a very fun tasting drink - strawberry, Prosecco mix.
