Review Summary

Yakitori Hibahihi earns praise for a warm, intimate atmosphere and a refined izakaya vibe, with a well curated menu of yakitori skewers, sashimi and other small dishes, plus a strong sake and wine list. The service is repeatedly described as attentive and welcoming, with staff guiding the meal and creating a comfortable, thoughtful experience; hot towels and polished ambiance are frequently noted. Food quality is widely praised, especially the smoky, tender skewers and the sashimi, while some reviews call certain dishes bland or underseasoned and others feel portions are small or prices high for what is served. The decor and vibe, along with reliable staff and a sense of authenticity, lead many to say they would return, often for dates or with friends, though a few reviews warn about value and consistency. Overall, Yakitori Hibahihi appears to deliver strong yakitori and atmosphere, earning affection from many patrons while inviting occasional critique on price and certain plates.

Best experience ever. I recommend going there if you want to drink some amazing unusual sake. The food was literally the best. I recommend any sashimi especially the chef's choice plate & the yakitori.
Potato salad, yum.
The service is attentive & charming.
I want to go back again & again!
If you are looking for an intimate authentic japanese restaurant this is the place to go.

Price are terribly high for a yakitori shop.
You should put the price for the whole 2 Yakitori & not asking people to take 2 minimum. Otherwise you should allow people to take 1 Yakitori. So it's 10 $ for 2 small Veggie Yakitori.
5 Dollars / Yakitori minimum is way too expensive.
You feel that the staff have been trained on this specific issue to avoid friction with the menu & gave recommandation on what to order.
For exemple they told us that the 38 $ could be share for 2. Actually is a small Toro don for 1 person. Too expensive & too small . I took a Mousse au Chocolat, more than half of it was Ice cream & some chocolat jelly in a small cup. I felt cheated.
The restaurant is missing some piece to be a real Japanese experience like Seseri or kawa & tare or salt option.
Tsukune were way off from Japanese Quality.
Sake menu is amazing & cocktail are well served. Count 80 $ for a 500 ml Sake Carafe.
Waiter.ess were amazing, oshibori at the start is a nice attention.

Came here with my Friend a few nights ago & had an absolute blast!

The first thing I noticed when I walked in was the beautiful decor, the place is just has an amazing layout & Japanese vibe that really stands out & thrives. Makes for such a chill & relaxing atmosphere

When you are seated & your jackets are taken by the staff you are provided a hot towel to clean your paws before eating, it's a little thing but it's such a good setup before eating.

We should have to use a hot towel before doing everything, before we start work, go to the gym, drive a car even before GSP goes into the octagon he should have to use a hot towel.

The food was amazing & I'm going to let the pictures do the talking for me, everything had amazing taste & the liver was the best I've ever had in the city. (Toronto included)

I was blown away buy this place & didn't expect to have had such a great filling meal that would leave me thinking about it for days after.

Overall:
-The price was right
-Bathrooms were clean
-staff was friendly
-Dining area was clean & comfortable (seats too)
-music & vibes were spot on

10/10 - would highly recommend coming back with friends & family.

Incredible

I was honestly impressed - the yakitori tasted just like what I've had in Japan. Every skewer was juicy & perfectly cooked. The sides were also super authentic, & I loved the reasonable tapas-style portions so I could try a bit of everything.

As a Japanese person, being able to finish with noodles or rice made me really happy. I had the shio ramen & it was light but full of umami.

Their drink selection is amazing - especially the sake & shochu. I ordered shochu hot & it was perfect.

I'll definitely be back soon.
