How to Book Nobu Las Vegas, Caesars Palace (2026)
Published · Updated
"Omakase stops at nine, so come early," the reservationist said when I called, and that one line is the most useful thing anyone will tell you about booking Nobu at Caesars Palace.
Nobuyuki Matsuhisa's black cod in Caesars Palace's most bankable Japanese room. Book OpenTable or call ahead for a client dinner on the Strip.
Nobuyuki Matsuhisa built the dish that travelled the world, black cod marinated in sweet miso, before he ever opened on the Strip, and the Caesars Palace room carries that pedigree with the easy confidence of a brand that has nothing left to prove. This is a large, glamorous dining room rather than a fourteen-seat counter, which is good news for the booking: there is no lottery and no phone-only wall. Dinner runs daily from 5pm to 10pm, the menu is mostly à la carte, and the table is genuinely gettable if you plan around the convention calendar and the 9pm omakase cut-off.
How Hard Is Nobu Las Vegas to Book?
Easier than the name suggests on a normal Tuesday, and properly contested on the wrong Saturday. A weeknight or an early seating is often open within days on OpenTable. The squeeze arrives on fight weekends, New Year's, and the big convention nights, when the entire Strip competes for the same 8pm slot and the casino floor sends late demand the app never reflects. Treat a championship bout or a major conference as your warning to book a week or two out and to confirm with a phone call.
The Platform and the Backups
Nobu Las Vegas books primarily on OpenTable, with two real backups: the restaurant answers the phone at +1.702.785.6674, and it takes bookings by email at [email protected]. Caesars Rewards members can also hold a table through the property concierge, which is the route worth using on a sold-out night. Set an OpenTable Notify alert for your date and watch the forty-eight hours before service, where the cancellation-refresh tactic works as well on the Strip as anywhere. If you are deciding which app to trust for a Vegas room, our guide to OpenTable, Resy and Tock compared covers why a casino restaurant leans OpenTable and phone rather than a strict drop window.
What You Are Actually Booking
You are booking the original travelling hits, executed in a room built to host them. The dishes to build a table around are the black cod with miso, the yellowtail tiradito with a thin line of chilli, and the rock-shrimp tempura, with the omakase as the chef's-choice route if you arrive before 9pm. Expect roughly $75 a head at the floor and well past it once the cod and a few rounds of sushi land, in a dining room at 3570 Las Vegas Boulevard South inside Caesars Palace. Full scoring lives in Nobu Las Vegas's full review, and it is one of the Strip's strongest rooms for impressing clients or closing a deal. Shortlist it against CUT by Wolfgang Puck and SW Steakhouse from our Las Vegas dining guide.
Don't bother booking Nobu Las Vegas if
You are coming for omakase and refusing to arrive before 9pm. The tasting stops at nine sharp, and a 9:30pm table gets the à la carte menu instead, which is fine but not the reason to choose the counter. If a late seating is all you can get on a convention weekend, order the cod and the tiradito off the card and save the omakase for a night you can sit down by half past eight.
Frequently Asked Questions
How hard is it to book Nobu Las Vegas?
Easier than its reputation suggests, harder on fight weekends and big convention nights. Nobu at Caesars Palace is a large room serving dinner from 5pm to 10pm daily, so weeknight and early tables are usually available within days on OpenTable. The squeeze is a Saturday 8pm during a championship bout or a major conference, when you want a week or two of lead and a backup phone call to the restaurant. For the toughest Strip rooms, see our Las Vegas hardest-tables list.
What platform does Nobu Las Vegas use for reservations?
OpenTable is the primary channel, and the restaurant also takes bookings by phone at +1.702.785.6674 and by email at [email protected]. Caesars Rewards members can hold tables through the property concierge as well. For a busy date, book OpenTable early and confirm by phone, since the casino floor routes a lot of last-minute demand the app never shows. The same app-first logic runs through our impossible-reservation playbook.
Does Nobu Las Vegas serve omakase, and when?
Yes. The omakase tasting is the chef's-choice route through Nobuyuki Matsuhisa's Japanese-Peruvian cooking, and the kitchen stops serving it after 9pm nightly. If omakase is the reason you are coming, book a seating no later than 8:30pm and tell the host at the door. Order it with a sushi-counter seat rather than a dining-room table for the version worth the trip. See Nobu Las Vegas's full review for the dishes that matter.
How much does Nobu Las Vegas cost?
Plan on roughly $75 per person at the floor and a good deal more once the black cod with miso, the yellowtail tiradito and a few rounds of sushi are on the table, with omakase pushing well past that. The menu is largely a la carte, so you control the spend. Caesars Palace pricing rewards a planned order over a free-for-all, especially with sake or a Japanese whisky flight.
Is Nobu Las Vegas good for a client dinner?
It is one of the Strip's most bankable client rooms. The Nobu name needs no explaining, the Caesars Palace address carries weight, and the broad menu suits a table that has not agreed on anything. Book a booth rather than the lounge, aim for a weeknight, and let the black cod do the talking. It ranks with the city's best for impressing clients on the Strip.
