It’s Nobu…..have they ever served a bad meal? Excellent ambiance, service, vibes, and of course, the food.
It’s kinda weird how there is security at every point walking into the restaurant but you’re on the grounds of the IW Tennis Gardens so they don’t want people wandering. But once inside, you have made it to your happy place.
The food is everything you expect but you certainly will feel it when you get the check. It’s not someplace you go to weekly but you aspired to dine at quarterly. We feel privileged the desert is home to Nobu.

Had a really great time there. Service was excellent. Everyone (the guys at the valet, the waitstaff, the very funny golf cart gents) made the experience fun and still luxurious. The views were great too. And yes the food was delicious but it was the service that made it a really nice experience. I’ll go back just for the golf carts.

Our first visit to this Nobu location in the desert. Everything was great, our server Brittany was amazing. Raw menu was great (oysters a bit pricey) yellowtail and fluke dishes were superb. Black cod bites perfect, sliders great, and the filet cooked to perfection. Views of tennis facilities spectacular.

One of the best meals ever. For real. The food was positively epic and every dish was a home run. I can’t begin to say enough about the team that took care of us and how skilled and kind they were: Daniel served us and Aaron assisted. I haven’t had service this good in actual years: perfectly attentive and happy to suggest without being pushy. Unfailingly respectful, great menu and food knowledge and so friendly. We also appreciated the kind attention from manager Greg. This was our first time at Nobu but it will absolutely not be our last and we look forward to seeking out other Nobu experiences. I will also add our Google maps directed us to the wrong entrance for the restaurant and we ended up wandering from across the entire tennis garden looking for the restaurant. When some very kindly security guards realized we were in the wrong spot, they walked us right to the restaurant and chatted amicably. On the way back they shuttled us back to our car in a golf cart. Honestly from parking lot to table, this place understands how to make you feel special. The entire night could not have been more wonderful.

The best Nobu experience in the desert. Let the waiter guide your choices and you’ll discover the true magic of the menu. This Indian Wells location is famous for two desserts found nowhere else, the Date Vale and the Tennis Ball, both unforgettable. Incredible food, flawless service, and a must for Nobu fans visiting the Coachella Valley.

An Unforgettable Culinary Experience at Nobu Palm Springs
Nobu Palm Springs offers an absolutely stunning dining experience from the moment you step inside. The atmosphere is truly beautiful, with a warm and inviting all-wood interior and an open-concept kitchen that allows you to watch the culinary magic unfold. The attention to detail in the design is just the beginning of what makes this restaurant stand out.
The food is nothing short of exceptional. Every dish we tried showcased incredibly fresh fish, and the accompanying sauces were simply divine, elevating each bite to a new level. The Yellowtail Jalapeño is an absolute must-try – a dish that perfectly balances delicate flavors with a delightful kick. Another standout was the Wagyu burger, which was incredibly juicy and packed with flavor. And don’t even get me started on the tempura shrimp! It was cooked to perfection, and all the sauces served alongside it clearly had so much care and thought put into their creation.
Beyond the exquisite food, the staff at Nobu Palm Springs are over-the-top professional and attentive. Their dedication to providing impeccable service was evident in every interaction; dirty plates were swiftly removed, and every detail was meticulously managed.
Whether you’re looking for a fantastic girlfriends’ night out, a super romantic date, or just an incredible meal, Nobu Palm Springs is the place to go. The lighting and ambiance are perfectly on point, creating a truly memorable setting. I highly recommend a visit – you won’t be disappointed!

We had an amazing time checking out Nobu Indian Wells. The food is as always delicious as all the Nobu’s are. The service was exceptional and I’d definitely recommend a visit to Nobu Indian Wells if you’re in the area and looking for great Japanese food.

Our server and food was amazing but the hostess that greeted us was rude and made us feel unwelcomed. We were about 3 minutes late to our reservation which would have not been a big deal anywhere but the moment the hostess with blonde hair checked us in she told us “we have 2 rotations today and need the table by 7:15” in a rude almost demeaning manor. Never have we felt so unwelcome at a restaurant specially at a restaurant of that caliber.

Came during the 3rd round of the BNP Parisbas Open, restaurant was extremely packed but the service was great. Awesome alcohol menu, I got the Hibiki – last was happy with her margarita. Restaurant overlooks court two which has an epic view. Can’t wait to come back next year!
