    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.

    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.

    All the food was of very good quality and the presentation was beautiful. The picanha uramaki is an amazing find! The staff was friendly and helpful. They even had pisco cocktails. The brazilian japonese fusion works! we will go back soon! Thanks for the beautiful experience Ikibana Borne!

    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.

    Ceviche was ok but so tiny for the price that I felt offended! Sushi was ok but nothing really special. Service at table was awkward, as each waiter insisted on serving from tve wrong side of the table: the side with most obstacles! Not coming back, sorry!

    Very Nice place in El Borne. The menu is varied, full of different options. We where four people and all of us where really satisfied with our choices of food. Cocktails are nice as well, many choices too! We tried two and both where excellent. Staff is nice. We will return.
