Nobu, the world’s most recognized Japanese restaurant, opens up at Four Seasons Hotel Doha. The award-winning property located on a private beach in the heart of Doha’s cosmopolitan city has teamed up with Chef Nobuyuki “Nobu” Matsuhisa to debut the world’s largest Nobu. To celebrate the opening, Four Seasons has also rolled out a special Taste of Nobu experience package.

It is not only the largest of its kind in the world but it is also the only Nobu at a Four Seasons in the Middle East. It is also the second Nobu in the Gulf following Nobu Dubai at the Atlantis The Palm Jumeirah.

The circular restaurant pays tribute to Doha’s rich pearl diving past. Home to seven distinct dining and lounge areas, Nobu Doha boasts of signature design palette influenced by nature, such as warm wood, shimmering glasswork to reflect water elements, and rich layering of textiles.

Offering various dining and lounge areas on the platter, Nobu Doha includes an expansive 134-seat interior dining area; intimate 10-seat sushi counter; two exclusive private dining rooms; a sophisticated White Pearl Bar & Lounge; a stylish Black Pearl Bar & Lounge; and a one-of-a-kind 38-seat roof top lounge that encompasses both indoor and outdoor seating options.

The menu features a repertoire of signature dishes including the yellowtail sashimi with jalapeno, lobster with wasabi pepper sauce, and perhaps Chef Matsuhisa’s most notorious recipe – the black cod miso.

I look forward to new challenges and adventures with the opening of Nobu Doha.”
