Perfectly situated with breathtaking views of Victoria Harbour, the restaurant, which was once one of the InterCon’s most coveted tables, is a cornerstone of Regent Hong Kong’s revamped dining experiences and returns in time for the hotel’s Grand Opening.
The relaunch of Nobu signals a significant moment. Known for its unique style of Japanese cuisine with Peruvian influences crafted with top-quality ingredients, Nobu is not just a restaurant – it’s a dining destination that promises an exceptional experience with Nobu’s warm and attentive service with kokoro (‘from the heart’) and omotenashi, the Japanese spirit of hospitality.
Diners will once again be tantalised by Nobu’s signature dishes including his famous Black Cod with Miso, Yellowtail Jalapeño, and Toro Tartare with Caviar alongside melt-in-your-mouth nNew-style Sashimi and Rock Shrimp Tempura with Creamy Spicy Sauce.
The menu also features South American-inspired dishes like Tirodito and Nobu Ceviche, a nod to chef Nobu’s time in Peru, where he developed his signature “Nobu-style” cuisine. For guests looking for a comprehensive dining experience, the Omakase (tasting) menu offers a handpicked variety of Nobu classics made of the finest and freshest ingredients sourced responsibly from local vendors.

Nobu’s culinary team will be headed by executive chef Jason Au, a veteran of modern Japanese and Asian cuisine.
