Experience the best
Expensive but half the cost is experiential, and 100% worth it. Craft cocktails with crashing waves and freshest seafood… no wonder it sells out. Miso Cod a MUST! Reservations are definitely not impossible. You just need to call 30 days out exactly at 10 AM West Coast time, and Stay patient.

Restaurant with excellent location. Very well prepared food. One of the best Nobu I've ever had dinner at. Attentive and friendly service, although too quick to remove everything from the table. The reservation system does not work. Difficult to get a table.
Be the first to ReplyExpectations
"Expectation is the root of all heartache" is a quote I've learned the hard way when it comes to trying restaurants like Nobu Malibu.... and in other areas of life but I'm not tryna trauma dump on here. The Carbones and the Peter Lugers of the world let me down far more often than not, as I'm expecting to be BLOWN away by them. I think it's a mix of my expectations being near impossible to meet, and these businesses know that people will come just off of the hype alone, so it's hard to stay locked in. For context, my girlfriend was coming to LA for the first time and her one and only request was to go to Nobu Malibu, even quoting the Drake line "Eatin crab out in Malibu at Nobuuuuuu" smh. After calling and trying to make a res 24 days in advance, we were put on the waitlist. By the time our trip came around, I was hinting to pookie that God may just not want us to go…. but she said we could go right when it opens and could probably get a seat at the bar. I understood the low probability of this, but thought a spiritual drive up to Malibu would be worth it anyways. Plus, you try telling pookie no. Pookie gets what pookie wants. After the beautiful 58 minute drive from Manhattan Beach filled with the Red Hot Chili Peppers and BlueBucksClan spilling out my Toyota Rav4 speakers, we arrived at the promised land. The valet parks my 2017 Rav4 between a matte G-Wagon and a big body Range, and we walk through the beautiful little courtyard lounge area with the Pacific Ocean maybe 20 feet from us to get to the entrance. We get in at 11:59am (it opens at noon), and it is already PACKED. I was like baby no way we gettin a seat ahahaha...I was ready to just grab an early drink and enjoy the elite ambiance and head up to Point Dume for a meal. We got to the host stand and I put on my best puppy dog eyes, and the host says a table may open up, but we can sit at the bar as there is a full menu. She points over my right shoulder to the bar, and it is completely empty lol. Pookie was right. Before we could even order a drink, the hostess comes up to us and says a table opened up as someone canceled a res. WE UP! I don't even really need to say this, but this ambiance is everything it is cracked up to be. Whatever you're thinking in your head, it's even better. Waves crashing, sun shining. An absolute spiritual experience. We were buzzin that we got in, so we ordered a FEAST: Edamame & Shishito Peppers to start (do both I promise), Spicy Yellowtail Jalapeño, Crispy Rice w Spicy Tuna, Wagyu Tacos, Rock Shrimp Tempura, Black Miso Cod, Spicy Tuna Roll, Shrimp Tempura Roll, Baked Crab Roll. The quality of food at Nobu is just on a whole different level. It really is artistry what they are doing in here. Every bite we would look at each other like DAMN THIS IS HITTIN. Our favorites were the Yellowtail Jalapeño, Crispy Rice, and Black Cod. Those 3 dishes are like the Heatles. Yellowtail Jalapeño is LeBron though. I need to shout out my man Brett, our server. He was delivering the type of service you would expect here. Engaging, funny, and knows the menu like the back of his hand. Just one of those dudes who is happy to be alive and those kinds of people are infectious. Yeah, it's expensive. A special occasion only type beat. Being well north of $400 after a couple drinks each, my pockets were on featherweight. However, it was an experience we will talk about for years to come...and that's exactly what I was paying for. The experience. It is something we will always have together. To me, life is all about stacking these types of experiences with the people that you love and the people that love you. You can't take it with you. So yeah, it was easily worth it. In closing, I can't help but equate Nobu Malibu to LeBron James. The weight of the world on his shoulders, dubbed "The next Michael Jordan" and "The Chosen One" at age 16 comes with a level of expectation that could only set him up to fail. Yet, he still blew them out of the water. LeNobu. IG @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov__

Came for my birthday & the entire experience was amazing. All the staff members were so attentive & the food was delicious. Getting a reservation during daylight hours which has the best view of the ocean was difficult.
Be the first to ReplyThe place to go if you don’t want to talk to your company!
I can’t remember the last time I was this uncomfortable….the tables were crammed in so close together. The worst part was the noise: I could not carry on a conversation with the person sitting next to me. The people at the next table were also yelling at each other ( just to be heard - not in anger) so their conversation was overpowering. Although the staff was courteous, it must have been difficult to have patrons screaming orders just to be understood. Our waiter actually took only five of our six orders ( we had to find him again to remind him that there was a forgotten order!). The food came in some random order. My husband, a fast eater, was served first, and had finished before anyone else had eaten! My daughter-in-law got her food after the entire table was finished! Plates were removed quickly….too quickly, and bussers were constantly wiping off the table (this was annoying). The food, itself, was unremarkable.

I enjoyed this delicious meal. The dishes were all tastier than the others. What a treat ! Upon release, I became number one fan of a very promising new rock band from Lyon, France called borderline. They did an amazing concert next to the beach. I recommend following them on Instagram at Borderline_of
Be the first to ReplyMediocre Sushi
We went to Nobu for their famous Sushi. We had Sushi a la carte. The restaurant was beautiful. But the sushi was mediocre. We are sushi lovers and had amazing sushi in many cities. We live in Ohio and go out for sushi regularly. The Albacore was fresh and delicious. Uni was also tasty. Otherwise, salmon & Yellowtail , sweet shrimp were ok. At the recommendation of the server, tried Kampachi and Kinmedai which were terrible. Will not go back for sushi . Maybe their other hot dishes are better .
Be the first to ReplyThey don’t want your business
Extremely rude hostess at reception. She was condescending and also lied. Despite reservation two weeks earlier. Nobu is overrated. There are many better places to dine in Malibu.
Be the first to ReplyUnbelievable food, high price, but worth it
Our dinner was unbelievable with a very original take on Japanese and Sushi dishes. We went with a large group and the staff was able to portion our selections so all 10 people had a taste. The bill came to $550.00 a couple with two drinks per person, so if you don't have any alcohol it would be about $100.00 cheaper.

I go to Nobu Malibu a few times a year, usually for business. This time I went and took my best friend and her kids there and unfortunately, what a regret. Every drink we ordered took 40 minutes to arrive. By the time we ordered and paid the tip, we were STILL waiting for the food. I will never make the mistake of paying a tip before we finish dinner but I wanted to make sure I paid for my friend and took care of the bill before her. Our server was Dillion and though he started out nice, it ended up being a nightmare. The last thing we ordered after the medley of food, was salmon sushi with truffle oil. It was delivered without the truffle oil, and I mentioned it and sent it back. 20 minutes later, our waiter, Dillion, came and apologized for making the mistake and said that he was sorry. Then he asked for $5 more for the truffle oil!!! At Nobu?! After I gave him a 25% tip. Wow. Ok, I said, no problem and gave him a $20 dollar bill. Ten minutes later he comes back and asks if I want change!!! He says that he is going to have to re-open the bill if I want change! Yes, I said, after everything that has happened, I do not want to give him a 300% tip on the truffle oil sand yes, I do want change. Then the manager comes, Troy, and gives me my $20 and says that he is going to comp me the $5 truffle oil charge. Yes, these are first world problems. In fact, these are the top 1% of first world problems. But this still ruined the evening and I am still disappointed. I was so looking forward to enjoying the evening on a special occasion.

I was expecting something special and was not disappointed, but definitely pricey! Napa Valley wine complimented lots of varied dishes - all great.
Be the first to ReplyA Christmas lunch to remember
My family and I visited Nobu on Christmas Day and made it one to never forget. The servers are incredibly knowledgeable and passionate - the ingredients are a privilege to work with and they make sure to pay them due respect. Presentation on every dish was exquisite and if you can’t work out what to go for I recommend letting your server know what sort of flavours you like - giving them a rough budget and then enjoying being surprised because nothing will disappoint. Although the Black Cod Nobu is famous for is a MUST.
Be the first to ReplyExperience Nobu @Malibu
It was such a hyped that when you visit LA must go to Nobu. We arrived before the door was open as we had a reservation at 12 pm. We were the 2nd guests to walk in and were greeted just normally by the hostess Alexa, she brought us a table which is a small table for 2 in front of a folding door. I looked around there were plenty of seats and I was looking around if she could show me a better table. But she just simply said this is the size of a table for 2 people and walked away not even trying to help. With such a high-end restaurant how could a hostess treat the guests coldly without even trying? The server saved our expectations, KARDELL is such a warm person, explained the menu in detail and not trying to rush us at all. Such a lively and cheerful person which was just the opposit of the hostess.

Reservations: For starters I would echo other's sentiments that even having a reservations tab on their website is useless, and should just be removed (however I think this is done with intent). If you've read any reviews for Nobu Malibu you know that: A) you can't make reservations online B) you have to call their reservation line to make a reservation C) reservations can only be made as far out as 1 month in advance, to the date. Not 30 days, not 31 days. You want a reservation for October 27th, you have to call on September 27th D) Their reservation line opens at 10:00am local time With this information in hand, I made our reservation 1 month in advance, called the exact moment they opened and wound up 14th in the queue. This translated into the earliest available dinner reservation as being 9:15 PM. This of course was no problem for us, as we were on our way to Tahiti and were attempting to acclimate to the time difference anyways. But to say the least, making a reservation as part of the general public appears to be intentionally cumbersome. Food & Drinks: I would say the food is good. Don't expect to be BLOWN AWAY by it or anything, but to be honest I think when you come to Nobu Malibu, you're there more for the ambiance than anything. Among the food that we sampled were some shrimp and tamago nagiri which were fine. The wagyu tacos were quite good. And the rock shrimp tempura and shrimp/lobster in spicy lemon sauce was good as well. I was a big fan of the bento box and definitely would give that a try. All the drinks that we tried were well made, Vespertine, Lychee martini, etc. Staff: The bartenders were quite enjoyable and pleasant, the hostesses rather aloof, and the servers were attentive. Atmosphere: This is the real star of the show here isn't it? The location is superb, and the outdoor area has fantastic views. Great venue for celebrity spotting, as we saw a couple while there.

From the Service to the food everything was Amazing! Our server guided us through the menu and made very good recommendations that we tried. My husband had the Omakase -Multi course menu option, and I tried a little bit of everything, from the scallops for appetizers, the Wagyu Tacos, the Lobster and shrimp entree, everything was Outstanding. Looking forward to another trip to Nobu!

we arrived a touch late and our car was taken by the valet which all went smoothly we were greeting and promptly shown to our table; it was outside and had the must stunning views of the sea and the rest of the restaurant. straight away we had still water, which was constantly refilled throughout the meal, i didn’t have an empty glass once! we then ordered food after the menu had been explained to us since this was our first time in nobu, we first pursed a few cold fish dishes, some miso soup and the ribeye tacos, all of which were perfect and i would get again in a heartbeat Our second course of lobster, two different types of steak, squid pasta and dover sole arrived, yet again all of them were perfect The rest of the party i was in eat fish however i’ve never liked it at all, however every single bit of fish i tried here i had seconds (or thirds!) Next we ordered some pieces of sushi as a palette cleanser which tasted perfect with the soy spice and finished with the iconic bento box. I particularly liked the style of the bento box and it was really fun! All in all, this was one of my favourite meals ever! We are in California for 6 more nights and i don’t think we’ll get a meal better than this! (we phoned up exactly 30 days in advance which i would recommend if you want an outside seat)
Be the first to ReplyHorrendous reservations system
I am from Singapore and had wanted to book lunch for 20 November. Since early October I have since emailed Nobu thrice but no reply. Simultaneously I tried the open table system and until 21 October it’s still stated as “the restaurant does not take reservations so far in advance”. I have tried at least 20 times on a daily basis since October. So today I decided to pay for an international call but was told they are fully booked on 20 November? Can you just remove your system with Open Table? In this digital age you are forcing customers to call internationally. Why set up the Open Table?
