At this huge, bustling TriBeCa dining room (or its sister location uptown), you may just spot a celeb or two. New York's most famous Japanese restaurant has gained a lot of competition in recent years, but this is still the destination for the innovative Japanese cuisine Nobu Matsuhisa made famous, like fresh yellowtail sashimi with jalapeño, creamy spicy crab, or miso-marinated Chilean sea bass. Put yourself in the hands of the chef by ordering the tasting menu, the omakase, specify how much you want to spend, and let the kitchen do the rest. Can't get reservations? Try your luck at the first-come, first-served Nobu Next Door, with a similar menu plus a sushi bar.
