A Culinary Masterpiece: An Unforgettable Evening with Chef Jiwoo Choi From the moment my girlfriend, Kassandra, and I stepped into the Choi’s in downtown San Diego, we knew we were about to experience something truly special. What followed was an extraordinary seven-course tasting menu crafted by the incredibly talented Chef Jiwoo Choi, a chef whose passion for food is evident in every detail of his dishes. This level of dedication and personal touch is rare and speaks volumes about his commitment to his craft and his guests. If you have the opportunity to experience a tasting menu by Chef Choi, do not hesitate—it’s a once-in-a-lifetime culinary journey. We will absolutely be returning and recommending this restaurant to everyone we know. Five stars are simply not enough!

Great service- our server told us all about the food / tastes and it was a great experience. Broccolini is a must have and truly different! Had the more tender waygu cooked to medium which was lovely (usually like crispiness to my meats) Waygu wontons were flavorful! Chicken appetizer wasn’t as great as I thought but still tasty, just a little too much breading for me.

We had a great date night at Nobu. We enjoyed a variety of items from the extensive menu. We have some all time favorites that we order almost every visit and then we usually try several new items as well. The food was delicious and the service was great. Always a great time.

Incredible, did the ten course tasting menu and it was absolutely perfect.

Charming staff. Great location before the play at La Jolla playhouse. Food is always delicious and interesting
