Hibino - Brooklyn

Such a lovely spot in Greenpoint ! Situated in really scenic area. The restaurant is small in size, but really clean and has great ambience. Food was so amazing. I love that Japanese cuisine has proportions that are just right. Each dish was so deliciously prepared. They seem to change out their obanzai ???? daily(since it is based on the tradition of using ingredients, mainly veg or seafood, that usually may end up being discarded). Our obanzai we chose were the Beeftendon curry (SO soft and tender, full of umami flavors) and Japanese Potato salad. My friend and I also had some sushi and the tonkatsu entree. So yummy! My fav was probably the obanzai curry ???? Service was amazing, efficient and fast,and all servers were super nice.

Incredible sushi, incredible atmosphere. We ordered a tuna special roll, salmon avocado roll, and a spicy tuna with added fish roe. 10/10. The perfect amount for the two of us.

Friday night, celebrating my sisters birthday?Hibino was perfect. They only have limited seating, but when I explained I have two toddlers they were more than accommodating. The fish melted in my mouth and the rice did too. The special small dishes are worth ordering and the sake is a must, especially because it?s moderately priced. They even refrigerated the cake for us and lit the candles?all without a service charge.

This place is inconsistent in quality and lacks good service. First time my husband and I went on a Saturday, they had $6 tasting plates.

Hibino is a gem! Try the homemade tofu (warm) and whatever specials they have on the board.
