Nobu Malibu
Acclaimed as the ultimate oceanfront playground for Hollywood elites and food lovers alike, this striking architectural venue is world-renowned for its seamless fusion of traditional Japanese techniques and Peruvian flavors. You must order the iconic black cod miso, the yellowtail jalapeno sashimi, and the crispy rice with spicy tuna, each of which is exceptionally balanced and incredibly fresh. The vibe is sophisticated coastal chic, best enjoyed right at golden hour, with average spends easily landing in the $$$$ tier (around $150+ per person) which is steep for sushi but a worthy splurge for the unmatched elegance, celebrity spotting, and sweeping Pacific waves.
