I was here for lunch this past weekend with my husband and inlaws. We were craving sushi and found Nubo online so we decided to try it out. I could not have better things to say! Everything was delicious. I was hoping for a Philadelphia roll so I got the closest thing on the menu to it, the Salmon L Jackson roll and wow! Its safe to say this is the best sushi roll I've ever had! I would absolutely come back and will recommend this place to everyone if they are in the Victoria area.

We decided to try this restaurant after reading great recommendations about it. The food is excellent, which is why so many people visit; the service is also excellent, and the setting is lovely and well-kept.

Good food but be aware if you are a vegetarian that they will package meat/fish containing food with vegetarian - apparently you can request it separately but too late for my order.I ordered tofu specifically with no bonito flakes, plus 2 vegetarian rolls for myself and then fish and prawns for my partner, and they packaged the fish roll in the same container with the vegetarian roll, squished together.I thought that the item was missing and called the restaurant and sent a picture and was astonished when they told me it was packed together with the fish roll. And told me next time to tell them I was a vegetarian so they wouldnt package it together. Disappointed in this (and still hungry).Edit: although most nonvegetarians who eat vegetarian dishes will be totally ok with packaging veg and non veg items together, most vegetarians would not be. Additionally fish has a very distinct and strong taste and odour. Suggest as a good practice would be to package veg and non veg items separately by default. I've never ordered take out or delivery from a restaurant that has packaged them together, so it would have never occurred to me to ask.

A friend recommended Nubo as the go to place for Japanese food in VictoriaWe dined on a Friday afternoon. The tables were all full with a busy vibe.Incredible tasting dishes, quantities were generous, service was professional.We are vegan and the menu had a reasonable amount of vegan optionsThe ones we chose were avocado green salad. Veggie tempura. YMCA rolls. Veggie grinch roll. This is the first time I’ve had rolls like these. Super fresh interesting combination of flavor.Definitely a place will be coming back toVegetarian options: Reasonable selection of vegan options

Sushi was good but I had better sushies in Victoria, we went an hour before closing but we felt like their staff was pushing us to finish our food and leave the restaurant. I understand if they want to go home but if I'm paying 20% for service for a table of 6, I want to eat my food at peace :) I don't think I'm gonna go back.

Stopped in for an impromptu snack of spicey tuna rolls. They were pretty good but on the smaller side though. Music was quite loud and the sushi chefs looked so serious and no chit chat. Will go back again when in that area of town.
