   I told the waiter at the end of the meal that if I didn't wake up tomorrow I was so pleased that was the last meal I'd ever eat!! Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious, service was faultless and the location was beautiful. We had a wonderful evening and we can't wait to visit again

   First visit. Excellent food. Decent service and good value. Went for sharing dishes so could try a range. Lots of veggie choices. Could not fault anything.

   The bluefin tuna sashimi and tataki was the best Japanese food I have had since being in Japan.

   Staff need more training on allergens and to also be aware that they have an allergen menu available for customers to see. It took too many times asking to see one before we did and made us feel like we were being ‘difficult’ when ordering food to fit our intolerances.

   Hi Nina, and many thanks for taking some time to share your experience with us. Our menu includes Gluten free and Vegan options, and they are stated on it, however for other dietary requirements, we do have to refer to our Allergens Matrix, and in some cases we have to double and triple check with our chefs whether some dishes contain or not some allergens. We try our best in order to guarantee our guests safety and at the same time, our chefs and Front of house staff, try their best in order to accommodate and cater any dietary requirements. Sorry if this felt unpleasant to you, we will investigate this matter further and make the right adjustments. We hope to host you again at KIBOU in the future! Best regards Nicola Deputy Manager

   Fantastic food! Cocktails menu was good but a little brief perhaps. Staff were fabulous, room very nicely decorated. The tables were a bit close together and the room very busy and for the cost, I would have expected more room and more privacy but other than that, a very good experience.

   Hi Jessica, and thanks for your review and feedback! We will get your suggestions onboard and make the right adjustments where needed. We look forward to hosting you again at KIBOU! best regards Nicola Deputy manager

   We came back to Kibou having been tempred back with voucher after a less than perfect visit for my son's birthday. Everything about this visit was first class - the issues we had last time of quite a wait to be saated were all settled. The food again was excellent, much quieter (but it was a Sunday lunch rather than Saturday dinner), staff were charming and pleasant as before. Glad we went back!

   Most things were delicious and perfect. I would say for one improvement would be the desserts. Bit bland and generic, we had the Crème Brûlée, apple gyozas, and the spicy chocolate tart. The tart was a bit too dense making it sickly but this is subjective to palette. The apple gyoza’s were generic, but ok. Overall, super yummy, would return perhaps minus the desserts.
