obuyuki Matsuhisa' Shore Club-based Miami outpost retains the famed restaurateur's sushi-fusion flare, utilizing the freshest and finest ingredients for tight and inventive rolls. Sure, it's expensive, but Nobu is worth it. A foodie favorite and celeb-haven, Nobu's near-minimalist décor and superb menu make it a no-nonsense rice and weed destination of the finest order.

Beware that the restaurant is slightly tricky to get to. Located in the Shore Club, your best bet is to go into the lobby and ask right away. Otherwise, you may be a little cranky from hunger when you finally reach Nobu.

When you’re seated, ordered, and ready to relax, go right ahead. The décor provides a chic and sophisticated atmosphere, while maintaining comfort. The restaurant is draped with elegant white curtains, attesting to the rich celebrity feel. The lighting is soft, and the tables are natural wood, which reflects on the whole sushi movement. The lounge has funky pink and yellow lighting, which seems tacky- but it somehow just makes Nobu that much more elegant. The tiled floors and upscale décor makes you glad you dressed up to get sushi.

To the most important part- the food. Personally, I don’t think it’s food unless it’s cooked, but Nobu has so many fans I’m becoming swayed to try it. Signature dishes are a safe bet, such as Yellowtail with Jalepeno and Black Cod and Miso. They have a listing of cold dishes like tuna tempura rolls ($18) or Monfish Pate with Caviar ($21). There’s even a section for me- hot dishes like Beef Toban Yaki ($28), or chilean sea bass. Regardless of what you order, Executive Chef Thomas Buckley's dishes are sure to delight.
