KIBOU Japanese Kitchen & Bar (Clifton)

Bringing a contemporary taste of Tokyo to Clifton Village, KIBOU is well-known for its signature sushi rolls, exotic cocktails and equally exotic interiors. Designed with a vision to transport guests to the eclectic streets of Japan, KIBOU’s trademark hand-painted murals visually depict Japanese street life, whilst the incorporation of a network of vibrant Japanese red acers adds a real touch of glamour. The menu at KIBOU centres on our signature sushi rolls, such as the famous Volcano Roll - salmon, avocado and tobiko futomaki, tempura fried and served with house sauces, plus also features a range of other classic and contemporary Japanese dishes. Dive into steaming bowls of ramen, freshly prepared katsu curry, crisp tempura, pillowy bao buns and handmade gyozas. There’s a standalone vegan menu too that’s packed full of meat-free options, plus a kid’s menu that also doubles up as an origami challenge to keep your little ones entertained! To complement the restaurant offering, their bar serves an ambitious selection of Japanese whisky and sake along with Japanese brewed beers, authentic high-balls and signature Japanese-inspired cocktails. Their classic KIBOU is a must-try – a truly elegant cocktail combining gin, bergamot, lychee and rose vermouth, garnished with fresh flowers and served in a ‘look at me’ glass that’s as eye-catching as the venue! Lunch or dinner, KIBOU’s menu has something to suit everyone, but make sure you leave room for dessert, as their Japanese twist on a range of classic puds is the perfect round-off for any occasion. Head here for romantic date nights, relaxed lunches or fun-fuelled evenings catching up with family and friends. Plus enjoy late-night cocktails every Friday and Saturday with the bar open until 1am.
