Wall Street's favorite deal-making restaurant has opened in Silicon Valley - here's what it's like to eat there

Silicon Valley has never been a center of haute cuisine. Rising rents, high local fees, and acute labor shortages make it difficult for high-end restaurants to turn a profit, despite the area's concentration of wealthy people looking to strike deals over dinner.

But the tech elite still needs to eat.

Nobu, Wall Street's favorite deal-making restaurant, has opened its first outpost in the Bay Area - a smaller version of the massive Nobu restaurants found in cities like New York, Tokyo, and Qatar. Nobu Palo Alto is located about halfway between the offices of Facebook and Google, and is inside a hotel owned by Larry Ellison, the billionaire founder of Oracle.

We toured the restaurant and tried the food to see if Nobu Palo Alto can bring an end to the fine-dining drought in Silicon Valley. Take a look.
