    Was OK - for being in Barcelona, think there is better to be had … even with Fork discount thought it was not inexpensive for BCN

    The waitress told us that all our food arrived to the table and we ordered more, then 2 sushi dishes came to our table from our first order and we had at the end lot of food so lot of waste of food. Sad

    service was way to slow. They brought the drinks like 15 minutes after we started eating

    Fantastic dining experience!! The three of us: myself, my daughter and my husband enjoyed everything we ordered for dinner, drinks and desserts at Ikibana Born restaurant. Ceviche and sushi were excellent and so were the drinks: mocktail, cocktail and a glass of red wine! The desserts were divine! We loved every bite of it. The ambiance of the restaurant is very cool and stylish. Service is attentive and prompt, very pleasant! I made reservations through The Fork app and it worked great. We would gladly return for a delicious meal to Ikibana Born restaurant if time allows during our trip in Barcelona.

    Food ok, sauces could have been better, e.g., the one on the unagi or sweet-sour sauce which tasted like the one you buy at Asia shops.

    Ikibana Born

    Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed the food overall, and we appreciate your comments about the sauces — they help us improve. We hope to welcome you again soon.

    Super nice blend between Japanese and Brazilian kitchen. It's one of my favorite places in Barcelona. And over the years the quality of the food stayed really consistent. So all in all an excellent place 💚

    We reserved with The Fork and they were aware of the discount and immediately welcomed us warmly. We could choose any table we wanted. We ordered and the sushi was delicious. However, the rolls were tiny. We noticed that the rolls that everyone else got looked nearly twice as big. So we wondered if they made ours smaller because we were getting a 20% discount with The Fork. So while the food was good and the service was good, we felt that the tiny rolls were not worth the price, not even the discounted price. Basically, our rolls were smaller than 2cm tall, whereas the rolls we saw others get were about 3.5cm tall.

    The location is great and food delicious - and wine list is interesting, well priced and varied. My friends enjoyed their gyozas, uramakis and tempura. Only unfortunate thing is that my vegan item recommended by the waiter never arrived and finally, after checking about it, turned out it was not yet prepared - so we cancelled it, and I only had edamame. The issue is that as food arrives when it is ready, it was hard to know if it just takes longer to prepare or really has been forgotten. Apart from the glitch the service was great, waiting staff a delight!

    We went for Valentine’s Day lunch, it was a set menu. The tables are small and the appetizers (edamame) were bigger portions than the sushi and main meal. Each diner had 6 pieces of sushi and 2 nigiri. Tiny desert. Overpriced.

    Ikibana is always a great choice. You can taste the japanese sushi mixed with brasilian flavours. For me this restaurant is one of my favourite japanese food.

    Thank you for your comments Beli! We are glad you consider Ikibana as one of your favourites! :) Happy to welcome you anytime you want!
