Nobu Matsuhisa's Japanese-Peruvian cooking in the landmarked former AT&T building on Broadway
Nobu Downtown serves chef Nobu Matsuhisa's Japanese-Peruvian cooking in the Financial District, and it plays as a proper occasion from the moment you walk in. The street-level bar and lounge, with 30-foot ceilings and a circular bar, is where the night starts, while the main dining room sits one floor down around a centerpiece sushi bar with the open kitchen behind it.
The restaurant occupies the lobby and lower level of the landmarked former AT&T headquarters at 195 Broadway, and David Rockwell's design leans into the bones of the space. Towering marble columns frame the lounge, where a floating sculpture inspired by Japanese calligraphy hangs over the bar, and downstairs a canopy of ash slats inspired by kirigami appears to rest on abstracted ash trees.
The menu is the Nobu canon. Start with the yellowtail jalapeno the kitchen suggests as a palate opener, then the sashimi salad in Matsuhisa dressing, rock shrimp tempura and the black cod miso. Finish with a run through the sushi bar, or hand the kitchen the evening with the omakase. The cocktail and sake lists are serious in their own right.
Reservations run through OpenTable, with sushi bar and bar-lounge seating kept for walk-ins; a credit card secures parties of five or more. Lunch is Monday through Friday from 11:45 AM to 2:15 PM, dinner Sunday through Thursday from 5:30 PM to 9:45 PM and Friday and Saturday until 10:45 PM. The bar-lounge is open Tuesday through Saturday from 5:00 PM.
