" I stumbled upon Nubo while exploring Victoria, and it turned out to be a delightful find! The sushi rolls were delectable, especially the avocado green salad and the unique veggie options. The restaurant was busy, but our server remained friendly and attentive. It’s definitely worth trying if you’re in the area, although be prepared that it can get quite crowded. I'm excited to go back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Great experience overall! Nubo has carved out a nice niche in the Victoria dining scene. I loved how everything I tried was remarkably fresh, including the sashimi, which was some of the best I've had. Service was respectable, though I do wish it was swifter at times. The place has a trendy ambiance, perfect for date nights. I will recommend this to friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining at Nubo is like an adventure for your taste buds! Every dish was an explosion of nuanced flavors! The spicy chicken nanban and kabocha croquettes were personal favorites. My friends and I appreciated how the menu offers something for everyone. Service was friendly and quick despite the place being busy. It might be pricier, but it's perfect for a fun night out! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently tried Nubo for my birthday, and I was thoroughly impressed! The ambience was lively yet cozy, perfect for a small gathering. I tried a variety of sushi rolls, and the freshness was evident in each bite. The spicy tuna roll and the hammerhead shark were particularly memorable. The service was top-notch, and the staff even brought out a small cake to celebrate my special day. Everything exceeded my expectations; I can’t recommend this place enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Nubo was a delightful experience. We ordered several sushi rolls along with some tapas. The ingredients were fresh, and each dish had its unique flair. I really loved the unanimous approval for our picks: the Lucky Strike Roll and the Tuna Tataki. Service was attentive, and the atmosphere was vibrant, making it a perfect place for a gathering with friends. I highly recommend making reservations, as it can get quite busy! " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, Nubo was a great spot for a casual dinner with friends. We enjoyed a variety of tapas that were thoughtfully crafted. I found their vegan options commendably creative! The kimchi and avocado salad were refreshing. On the flip side, I felt a bit limited in choices regarding the actual sushi rolls; they could expand that. The atmosphere was very inviting and comfortable, making it a pleasant night. Worth a visit if you're in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" Our visit to Nubo for family dinner was overall a pleasant experience. The sushi rolls exceeded what we usually find in Victoria with their innovative flavor combinations that truly delighted our taste buds. However, I did find certain dishes a bit on the pricey side for the portion size, but the presentation made up for it. The atmosphere was cozy, ideal for family gatherings. I’d recommend it for special occasions! " (*Curated Review*)
