“ Went during happy hour and the menu is great during that time. We started with the spicy soy beans, then had the Lemon Roll, the Memo special roll, and the Red Sun Roll. We also had some strawberriy flavored Soju. We will be back. They were friendly and attentive. For a small place they were busy on a Tuesday night. Clean place. ”
“ Nubia was the best person that ever helped me.She was so great.Do you know. Best sushi place in town ”
“ Great service & food late comes out quickly. I would rate it the best HAPPY HOUR in Ventura. ”
“ Crazy happy hour is my favorite hour!! Amazing food, amazing prices, amazing people! The place is always clean and the staff is quick with your orders. See you there :) ”
“ Awesome staff. Great prices. Delicious food The happy hour is the best in town. I highly recommend! ”
“ -Baked salmon roll is so good! Love the vibe in here and how dark the lighting is. Truly gives an inviting and romantic experience. Lowkey, if you will. Quick service & seating. Everyone greets you with a smile. Definitely recommend if you are in the area. ”
“ I recommend coming for Happy hour from 8pm to close if you want to give this a try. The happy hour menu has a great selection of rolls and sashimi. The regular menu has a large selection of specialty rolls though that I recommend you give a try as well. This place does get busy and if you come during happy hour then expect to wait a little. If you can show up 15 minutes before happy hour, then that would be the best time to get a table faster. There were a lot of cooks and waiters/waitresses during this hour. They have a lot of seating available but when I went, it was all filled up. The happy hour prices are worth the wait though. I don't know anywhere else where you can get a large hot sake for $2.99. We will be back though, even if it's not happy hour. They have a lot of sushi roll and plate options in their regular menu. I also saw a lot of online orders being done too so we might do that as well. ”
“ This review is for kibo's crazy hour (every night from 8pm to close)! 5 stars for service and unreal deals! We've gone Thursday nights and usually end up with the same waitress who is so sweet and patient. She recommended her favorite roll (the memo special) to us and we're obsessed. We spent $35 on dinner and that got us drinks, appetizers, a couple rolls, AND a chicken teriyaki bowl! 4 stars for food. Solid happy hour options, with the understanding that although it's not the highest quality sushi, it's still good! I love ordering miso soup, edamame, gyoza, the memo special (spicy shrimp with tempura salmon roll!!!), the crunchy roll, an avocado roll, and an asahi or kirin with a hot sake. Tip - you can join the waitlist remotely from the Yelp app! There is usually a wait (on the Thursdays I've gone) so getting on the waitlist ahead of time is really helpful. ”
“ This is quickly becoming a favorite for my family. We love the early happy hour! I usually get my kids after school, and they will ask, "Kibo?". They have their standard order, my daughter gets the miso and 2 avocado rolls, and my son does the same except he orders 2 Philadelphia rolls. The serving size is very generous, and the ingredients are always fresh. I appreciate that the servers are kind and attentive to their needs. The place is kept dim, which can feel a bit more of an intimate setting even when just dining with my family. We have appreciated the consistency in quality and will continue to support this business. ”
“ Kibo Sushi is celebrating their 10th anniversary. It is one of my favorite Japanese restaurants. Lots of room, plenty of seats at the counter are available if you want to watch the magic happen. Staff are friendly and knowledgeable. The menu has just about anything you might want. They have specials for lunch and dinner, and during the anniversary celebration, additional special deals for those who want to visit after 8pm! ”
