Singapore｜HIBACHI JAPANESE CASUAL DINING

Visit Hibachi for the first time recently with 3 other friends. Didn't expect much from it's humble venue. Small restaurant with bar seats and a separate private dining area. Dark and cosy environment in the private dining area, can get a little noisy if it's full house with rowdy crowd. Service was good, attentive and chef's menu beside the bar is updated daily. Food was amazing, Hibachi serves a variety of dishes that are suited for even for diners with more adventurous tastebuds. Lamp chop was intense and flavourful. Stingray fins were my new found favourite snack with alcohol. Sashimi was fresh and thick. Smoked duck pasta sounded western but tasted very Japanese! Overall, every dish did not disappoint. The restaurant was gracious enough to accommodate to us even though we left slightly later. I'm impressed by the experience this place left us. Definitely going back again although price is on the steep side. It's worth for food with such quality!

Went on a wed for dinner with reservations for 6.30pm and place is packed. But seems like max seating is 8pax around the chef's station. Service staff is attentive and prompt in clearing the plates after we are done with each dish. Each dish served was well up to standard except for the smoked duck and mushroom pasta which was a replacement for the uni pasta. Not a place that one will stumble upon and more like a hidden gem that those who know will patronize.

Cuppage been quiet in this covid environment. Ambience dark quiet, counter seating style hence casual setting. They have private style seating(min $100/pax spending). The counter seat is fine really. Food quality gets the 5 star rating. The appetizer is worth the $5/pax, beef is tender. Fresh mussels butter yaki. Lamb chops recommended. Les Tartes Passion to end the meal. Great dining experience, maybe because the area still less crowds! Expect $70-80/pax exclude alcohol on Ala Carte menu.
