Nobu Malibu — Where Coastal Luxury Meets Timeless Vibes
Nobu is legendary — and for good reason! I visited Nobu Malibu with a friend who goes to Pepperdine 🎒, and wow… the coastal drive alone was breathtaking 🏝️. Who gets views like this on their way to class? 😍 🏡 The Vibe: Hands down the most beautiful Nobu location — right over the water, elegant and serene. Perfect before or after a visit to Kith nearby 🛍️. 🍣 The Food — Hits & Misses: ✅ Must-Orders: Yellowtail Jalapeño 🌶️ — fresh, bright, absolutely iconic Black Cod Misozukuri 🐟 — buttery, tender, deeply flavorful Tacos 🌮 — crispy shells, delicious fillings Tuna Tataki 🔴 — those cute round flavor bombs! ❌ Skip These: Sushi Rolls 🍣 — surprisingly bland Shrimp Tempura Ball 🍤 — just not worth it 🍨 Dessert: Their ice cream 🍦 was pretty good — but some dishes felt more style than substance. 🌅 Overall Verdict: Come for the views, stay for the vibes — not necessarily just the food. Hearing the waves crash 🌊 while sipping a drink 🍸? Pure magic. And even if you can’t snag a prime reservation, their walk-in lounge area has comfy sofas and full service. So chill! 🛋️✨ 💰 Vibe Check: Yes, it’s a “old money” favorite 👩🏼🕶️ — but you don’t need a trust fund to enjoy golden hour here. 📍 Nobu Malibu ✨ Perfect for: Special nights • Ocean views • Celebrating moments #NobuMalibu #MalibuEats #LAFineDining #OceanViews #CoastalVibes #YellowtailJalapeño
