" Wow! What an incredible dining experience. HIKARI nails it with delicious food and fantastic service! We ordered both beef and seafood, and they were prepared perfectly. The waitstaff were attentive without being intrusive. I cannot recommend this place enough for anyone looking to enjoy authentic Japanese BBQ. " (*Curated Review*)

" We had a lovely dinner here to celebrate an occasion, and the staff made it memorable! The omakase selection was delightful, each piece expertly cooked. The atmosphere is cozy but does get smoky; after cooking, it felt like we were walking around with our meals on us. Nevertheless, the flavors were fantastic! " (*Curated Review*)

" The idea of grilling your own food is amazing, but honestly, the smoke level made it hard to enjoy the ambiance. When we finally received our food, it was tasty, yet I felt it was served in small portions for the price. Overall good, but I'm unsure if I'd return unless the ventilation improves. " (*Curated Review*)

" Tried HIKARI based on a friend's recommendation. While I enjoyed the meal, it wasn’t quite what I expected. It felt a bit overpriced for the portion sizes we received. The ambience was inviting, but I wasn’t overly impressed with the service — it took quite a while for our orders to arrive. Wouldn't say it was a bad experience, but it might not be worth rushing back to. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a lovely hidden gem! From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with warm hospitality. The menus had a great selection of meats and vegetarian options too. My partner ordered the Wagyu and he couldn’t stop raving about how tender it was. We also tried their house salad, which complemented our meal perfectly. The only downside was that it got a bit smoky, so wearing a jacket you don’t mind getting a bit of a scent on is recommended. " (*Curated Review*)

" The prices here are a bit steep, but I believe it’s worth it for the experience! The meats were well-prepared, and I loved trying the different sauces. On the downside, it was smoky, and I felt the portions could have been bigger. Overall, I enjoyed my time and would like to return once they've improved the ventilation. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner here with colleagues and it was a fantastic experience! The BBQ style allows everyone to cook at their own pace, which we loved. The variety of meats was impressive, though I thought some dishes could have used more seasoning. Overall great fun and memorable. The smoke was quite present, but so worth it for the delicious BBQ!
