Sydenham sushi

Hi all season greetings,

Has anyone tried the sushi restaurant?

Cheers,
Syd

If you mean the Japanese restaurant on Kirkdale - Hibagon (sic) - then I've been there. More than a sushi restaurant - full range of Japanese cuisine - curries, broths etc.. We had a great meal there - friendly and comfortable and tasty.

Hey thanks for the reply. I was just surfing just eat and it came up under sushi.

Thanks Biscuit-man I should stop by more often, this is exactly the type of business I like to support.

Cheers Syd

Been twice, both on a Tuesday lunchtime, and it was excellent. Fish was very fresh and the special rolls are great (one of them is pretty fiery!)

Been three or four times, never disappoints. Good to go for a wee drink beforehand at 161 if that's your thing too. You can make quite a lovely evening of it.

Agree with everything here - Hibagon has gone down v well in our house. Very much recommend as the best Sushi in the area - far better than the one in Crystal Palace

The thread on the other main forum has discussion and reviews too - the latest page being:

I've been a few times and thought the food, both sushi and other, to be delicious, especially the piece of steak I had as part of the beef don. Truly melt in your mouth.

Thanks to those posting reviews. It's many years since I visited that restaurant (when it was the Italian) and so I will aim to visit the Sushi restaurant in 2016 for sure! I wish to support local restaurants as much as possible.

On a slightly different point - many years ago there was a rumour of an Argentinian restaurant opening across the road in what was then a newly built block (slightly down the hill from where Wooster Stock were based at the time). Sadly, that never came to fruition, and that block remains empty. Does anyone know of any updates to that?

It is excellent. The bone broth pork noodles was the best I've ever had! I recommend highly

Wanted to post an image but technology eludes me once more!

In the back of the timeout is a little "London's best Katsu curry" and for the south Hibagon Sushi and Grill was written up via a very short tweet/message (they select one reader "review" for each area of London:
"It's excellent. I'm glad they have stuck their neck out to set up here" from Nick via Facebook.
