Does Robert De Niro own Nobu?
Nobu Matsuhisa, a chef, relocated to Los Angeles in 1987, where he opened the eatery bearing his name. Robert De Niro first went to the restaurant in 1988, and he later started going there frequently.
Matsuhisa was encouraged to open a restaurant in Tribeca, New York City, by De Niro in 1989. Matsuhisa found De Niro's offer appealing, but he turned it down because he believed he should first put the finishing touches on his Los Angeles restaurant. De Niro didn't bring up the idea to Matsuhisa again until 1994, and this time Matsuhisa agreed. In 1994, Nobu Matsuhisa, Robert De Niro, and Meir Teper founded Nobu Hospitality, LLC, in the United States in collaboration with Drew Nieporent as a member of the Myriad Restaurant Group.
The first Nobu restaurant opened on September 17, 1994, following an agreement on a joint venture. The first Nobu restaurant outside of the United States debuted in London in 1997 and the chain now has more than 50 locations.
In 2013, the first Nobu Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada, debuted inside Caesars Palace. Two years later, in May 2015, Nobu opened a hotel in Manila, the Philippines' City of Dreams. The same year, James Packer, an Australian billionaire, paid $100 million for a 20% stake in Nobu. The first Nobu Hotel in the Southeast debuted in Atlanta, Georgia, towards the end of November 2022.
