Sushi Kibatani

Located near an elegant tea house district, due to the owner’s fondness of the neighborhood, Sushi Kibatani presents Edo sushi style in a chef’s-choice course that consists of appetizers and nigiri sushi. Because Hokuriku fish are the main focus, the owner Mitsuhiro Kibatani uses almost exclusively local fish in hopes of expanding the knowledge of the goodness of fish in that region. In addition to that, the rice in the sushi is no ordinary rice. In fact, the Koshihikari brand rice used is grown carefully by monks in the mountains. Strong in flavor and just the right texture, the rice complements the savory taste of the fresh fish. Drawing sushi lovers from all over the country, Sushi Kibatani is famous not only for its fresh and quality sushi but also for the warm and lively personality of the owner and chef.
