What is it? The famous upscale Japanese-Peruvian fusion restaurant has now arrived in Bangkok – the city’s first-ever Nobu. And the sprinkle on top of the city lights? It’s the highest Nobu in the world, spanning the 57th to 60th floors of Empire Tower.
Why we love it: Nobu delivers on its legendary status, first established in New York by Chef Nobu Matsuhisa. That said, the chef’s black cod miso, yellowtail jalapeno, and toro tartare are non-negotiables when you visit. The atmosphere is sophisticated, with interiors by New York’s Rockwell group that fuse Thai art while maintaining a connection to Nobu’s Japanese roots – all enhanced by golden accents and sweeping city views. Add this to your must-visit list for your next celebration or simply a well-deserved night out in Bangkok.
Time Out tip: Book ahead and dress to impress. Dining doors are open daily from 5.30pm to 10.30pm. Afterwards, head to the bar (open until 1am) and check out their exclusive sake collection, imported just for Nobu spots worldwide.
