" Finally made it to Kibatsu after hearing so much about it. The omakase was good but I felt the balance of flavors wasn’t perfect in every dish. Some tasted overwhelmed by seasoning, while others were spot on. Nevertheless, the ambiance is charming, and the service was accommodating. Worth trying if you're in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

A truly authentic experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a mixed experience at Kibatsu. The sushi was delicious, however, I didn’t find the portion sizes to be filling enough, especially considering the prices. The service was friendly, yet it took a while to get someone's attention. It’s a charming little place with potential. " (*Curated Review*)
