Loved the presentation of the food here, and the taste was memorable too. The restaurant itself was quite dark, which would have been better suited for a date. The saki pairing was a bit much as we were wasted by the end!
a polarizing restaurant of either liking or not loving it.
appreciate the chef sticking to traditions. chef tasting vs restaurant omakase, fresh ingredients but didn't like several of the preps and didn't agree with the michelin star. look at the photo to know what the entrance looks like
Food food and service were wonderful.
Interesting drinks, too. Nothing more to say but the minimum character requirement to post is a PITA.
Shibumi is an unassuming dimly lit cozy spot in busy DTLA.
The small staff is very welcoming and pays attention to all the small details. We went to celebrate a friend's belated birthday and everything was fantastic. The cocktails are thoughtfully crafted and perfectly balanced. The seasonal omakase is
Shibumi doesn't deserve the time or money they're asking
Shibumi doesn't deserve the time or money they're asking for. This is not a 1* Michelin-starred restaurant, nor is it an omakase experience. In the 20 years I've been going to Michelin-recognized restaurants, this is the first time I

The worst omakase I've ever had! I came in on Valentine's Day with high expectations but learned a painful lesson. There were too many "caviar" or baby anchovies and not enough fish. Only the crab soup made some sense to me, while
Food was decent but falls short on the traditional Japanese
Food was decent but falls short on the traditional Japanese terms. For example, their steam egg is served cooled but Japanese steamed eggs are supposed to be served hot. Wait staff doesn't seem to be interested in customers and lack the discipl
Do not come here, the food is not worth the money.
Taste is not a Michelin standard at all. Wait time between dishes is extremely long. The whole restaurant is a bar, not a place for you to enjoy food. You have 0 interactions with the chef, although they call themselves an Omakase. Waiters are not we

I had the food omakase with three other people who also got the food omakase and we were all happy with the food. Each dish was pretty fun, and my favorite dish was probably satsuma sweet potato, but each dish was good. Not pictured here, but I also

Had a lovely experience sitting at a table with 4 in the restaurant! The restaurant was dimly lit and quite quiet. The atmosphere was great for an intimate experience. It was not super crowded on a Sunday night. Food-wise, I think the best thing was

I loved this place! I had mixed feeling before going to this place because of other reviews, but I am so happy I tried. Very different style of omakase, and mouthwatering. Started with firefly squid and sesame tofu. Sashimi, tempra, and bomboo. Cod a

When a place gets mixed reviews, I believe in giving it a chance. It paid off the last couple times. This time.... I'd join the others. I hate to give it 3 stars, but it's a solid 3.5 -- I'd rate it a 7 of 10 while my cousin gave it a 6 of 10. Ambi

I feel really bad giving Shibumi 3 stars, but sadly I just can't see myself coming here again unless they make some substantial changes to their omakase menu. Maybe my palate is just too pedestrian for Shibumi, but I just didn't understand the tastes
Amazing service.
The experience was wonderful. Food was great. All of the staff took great care of us. They even accommodated my shellfish allergy by supplementing a course. Everything was explained to us. The ambiance in the restaurant was great as well. Definitely
Shibumi remains our favorite restaurant in LA.
The food and drinks, service, and musical soundtrack are all spot on. We don't know of another high-end Japanese restaurant in LA that serves food like this; n/naka and Shunji probably come the closest, but they don't feature the chin mi and extended
I was advertised by michelin one star.
But the food here was not qualified as a good omakase. Actually this is the worst omakase I tried. The menu of the day was not the signature one. Overall, I feel the chef tries to innovate but not in a delightful way. The appetizer (hassun) is salt
I was very excited to try this place.
I always love a good omakase and had never been to Shibumi. I wanted to give it shot despite some of the less than stellar reviews. The location isn't in the best part of DTLA at night but parking is right next door m. The entry is a little hidden (a
Absolutely Amazing.
A humble and quiet exterior opens up into an exquisite Japanese dining room. We were seated at a counter made of centuries old wood, in full view of Chef David Schlosser. Think of Japanese Kappo style cuisine as similar to an Omakase sushi experienc

I went in the fall for their omakase and had a really great experience. It's not your typical Japanese sushi, as they incorporate various elements of Japanese cuisine. The food is very good quality, but it might be a little plain for some people. I'd
Absolutely amazing restaurant.
My partner and I have been here twice now, and we're planning out third visit. I really can't stay away from this place. Each course is so delicious, thoughtfully crafted, and paced out perfectly. I lived in Japan for 6 years, and I am always astonis

I have dined here several times now, most recently the winter 2023 menu, and each time I was greatly taken care of. The flavors of Shibumi are typically strong, earthy, umami, and smoky. Each dish awakens your senses, taking you on an ethereal journe
Genuinely don't understand the bad reviews.
This place is delicious. The grilled quail with sticky rice and mushroom had a deep umami flavor. The ice cream dessert was phenomenally balanced with just a hint of light fermented flavor. Even the roasted green tea was perfect. Wonderful spot!
This is the 5th and last time to come here.
Since the 1st time I was not sure about this place but my husband likes it so I gave chances everytime he wanted to come and I always expect too much. Now I'm certain that I'm not coming back. Everything was too salty without enough umami. (Except fo

The other one star wasn't available and was surprised to see a counter seat here.1. Phenomenal Japanese whisky selection- wish the owner had given more thought to promote a flight or pairing2. Absolute fav was the monkfish and wish the chef had more
An incredible dining experience.
Shibumi, to me, is doing some of the most impressive, thoughtful, restrained, and delicious Japanese cooking in all of America. I'm lucky enough to live in the neighborhood and dine at Shibumi semi-regularly.While they made a hard pivot to a prix fix

Omakase that understands an Angeleno's palate!Obviously hand-blown, moody light bulbs descend down on their wires from the classic, exposed high ceilings in this understated (almost hidden!) Japan-infused space in DTLA. More decoratively loud than an
Kappa cuisine brought another dimension to Japanese
I am big on sushi and wanted to taste other options of Japanese cuisine and this Kappa style with the different menus was a great option for that. Well deserved Michelin star.
Shibumi is in the middle of a big street without much label
Shibumi is in the middle of a big street without much label outside so it's very discreet. Parking is usually street or paid parking inside public lots. We tried the IKKYU'S MEAL option omakase. The course was small portion, pungent flavors. The rest
Unfortunately I do not like the food.
I was really looking forward to it. If you're looking for Japanese food, please don't come here. I do not consider it is Japanese food. It's more like Asian fusion dishes. Also, maybe they want customers to pair with alcohol, lots the food are very s

Disons que Peter passe une excellente matinée et décide d’emmener ses trois amis à Shibumi Los Angeles à 18h le même jour.
Il consulte le site du restaurant et constate qu’aucune réservation n’est disponible. Il regarde alors la page Shibumi Los Angeles sur AppointmentTrader, mais ne trouve aucune annonce d’utilisateur non plus.
C’est là que le système d’enchères communautaire entre en jeu.
Peter peut placer une enchère sur AppointmentTrader, qui servira de récompense à tout membre de la communauté choisissant d’aider à trouver une réservation. AT avertit alors les utilisateurs expérimentés qui pourraient être en mesure d’aider.
Processus étapes par étapes
1.) Définir une récompense (enchère)
* AppointmentTrader utilise des données historiques pour recommander un montant de récompense raisonnable pour obtenir une réservation – disons 100 $.
* Peter souhaite vraiment y aller, alors il augmente l’enchère (ou récompense) à 200 $.
* À ce stade, la réservation n’existe pas encore.
2.) Un membre de la communauté prend l’enchère
* PerceptiveWash44, un utilisateur expérimenté d’AT, a un historique solide de réservations réussies et peu de demandes de remboursement, il reçoit une notification concernant l’enchère de 200 $ de Peter.
* PerceptiveWash44 accepte l’enchère, ce qui signifie qu’il va maintenant tenter d’obtenir la réservation.
* Peter peut désormais poser toutes ses questions à PerceptiveWash44 pendant que ce dernier travaille sur sa demande.
3.) Trouver la réservation
* PerceptiveWash44 utilise maintenant ses relations chez Shibumi Los Angeles pour obtenir la table.
* S’il parvient à avoir la table de 18h pour quatre personnes, Peter reçoit une confirmation lui indiquant que la réservation est sécurisée.
* Si PerceptiveWash44 n’arrive pas à obtenir la réservation, l’enchère est remise en jeu pour qu’un autre utilisateur puisse tenter sa chance.
4.) Paiement & Protection
* Une fois la réservation sécurisée, PerceptiveWash44 reçoit la récompense de 200 $ qui est créditée sur le solde AT de PerceptiveWash44, où les utilisateurs gèrent leurs fonds et peuvent retirer leur argent via les options disponibles comme virement bancaire, PayPal ou Zelle.
* Peter peut alors profiter du dîner avec ses amis à Shibumi Los Angeles !
* Comme pour toutes les transactions sur AT, les litiges et les frais d’absence sont gérés via le système communautaire de résolution de la plateforme. Les utilisateurs ayant un bon historique sont incités à honorer les enchères, et les membres de la communauté peuvent signaler les problèmes pour maintenir la confiance sur la marketplace.
