Very poor service - Reviewed 30 July 2012
“As a Japanese food lover, this restaurant, regrettably, cannot be considered as a Japanese restaurant at all. Japanese menu cannot be provided and the waiters cannot explain what is set out in the menu. If you want to try real Japanese food, please go somewhere else… the waiter expressly asked me for a tip after I signed the bill paid to my room. The bill had already charged an additional of 12.5% as service charge and we did not receive any service at all. I will not recommend this restaurant”

Not up to Nobu Standards - Reviewed 23 May 2012
“if you have been to Nobu London, or Miami, for example, no way would you recognize the interior/ambience of Nobu Budapest. Bad yellow overhead lighting, bad decor, etc. As for the food, I would agree 100% with Katy83 -- "Well below the standards set by other Nobu restaurants."
