Nobu is a globally recognized destination for high-end Japanese-Peruvian fusion (Nikkei) cuisine. In 2026, it continues to define luxury dining in the UK, particularly through its London locations (Old Park Lane, Portman Square, and Shoreditch). Known for its minimalist elegance and celebrity clientele, Nobu is a go-to for world-class sushi and innovative hot dishes.
- Black Cod Miso: The most iconic dish at Nobu (£54). The Alaskan black cod is marinated in sweet den miso for several days, creating a buttery, melt-in-the-mouth texture.
- Yellowtail Jalapeño: A signature cold dish (£27) consisting of six delicate slices of yellowtail sashimi topped with garlic purée and jalapeño, served in a citrusy yuzu soy sauce.
- Rock Shrimp Tempura Creamy Spicy: A favorite for sharing, featuring battered shrimp tossed in a signature creamy spicy sauce with yuzu juice and shiitake mushrooms.
- New Style Salmon Sashimi: Thinly sliced salmon (£23) lightly seared with a splash of hot sesame and olive oil, finished with ginger and chives.
- Spicy Tuna Cut Roll: A popular sushi choice (£12.50 for 6 pieces) featuring fresh tuna, spring onion, and creamy spicy sauce.
Budget-Friendly Choices at Nobu
While Nobu is a high-end luxury brand, you can experience its world-class flavors more economically by opting for “Set Menus” or visiting during the popular “Weekend Brunch” sessions.
| Option Type | What to Expect | Smart Choice Example |
| Weekend Brunch | Unlimited sushi bar + 1 main + desserts | Nobu Sunday Brunch (£90pp) |
| Lunch Set | A curated multi-course selection | Nobu Lunch Bento Box |
| Shuko/Appetisers | Light bites at the lowest price points | Edamame with Sea Salt (£8) |
| Miso & Soup | Authentic warming starters | Miso Soup with Wakame (£9) |
- The Nobu Sunday Brunch (£90) is the most practical way to experience unlimited signature sushi, sashimi, and salmon tacos alongside a high-end main dish and live DJ entertainment.
- Choosing Sushi Cut Rolls (Maki) like the Avocado Roll (£10) or Salmon Roll (£12) is the most affordable way to enjoy Nobu’s premium-grade fish.
- Opting for Beef Kushiyaki (£33) skewers provides a filling, high-protein grill option at a lower cost than a full steak main.
What to Order at Nobu Based on Your Needs
The 2026 menu is designed for a social, “family-style” sharing experience, ranging from light omakase to indulgent wagyu.
- For the First-Timer: The Signature Omakase (£125) is commonly chosen as a “best-of” journey through Chef Nobu’s most famous creations.
- For Group Celebrations: The Sushi Moriawase (£106) provides an impressive 24-piece selection of nigiri, sashimi, and cut rolls.
- For the Health-Conscious: The Sashimi Salad with Matsuhisa Dressing (£27) is preferred for its peppered tuna sashimi and signature onion-soy dressing.
- For a Luxury Treat: The A5 Wagyu Steak Anticucho or Toro Tartare with Caviar (£37) are the ultimate choices for a premium, indulgent experience.
- For an Afternoon Break: The Japanese Afternoon Tea (Portman Square) blends traditional British rituals with items like Wagyu Sliders and Crispy Rice.
