Kibo was chosen for dinner on the second evening of a late-June, two-night stay in Hope. We stopped into the restaurant in the early-afternoon, to take a peak, check out the menu, and at that time, made a reservation for 5 pm (it’s a very small place, closes rather early (8:30 pm), and the hostess assured us that the reservation would be a good thing to do to ensure a table when we wished to come for dinner). It’s a small (I believe we counted six tables ‘for four’, three tables ‘for two’), rather cute and cozy, family-owned and operated restaurant. The ambiance was quiet and pleasant, and the service, very warm, courteous, and friendly. Our kind of place.Their menu is quite extensive, plus, they had a few ‘day specials’ posted on chalkboards near the service counter. I ordered from the menu, and as I always do when we’re dining in Japanese restaurants, ordered a selection of dishes we (threesome) could share. The food chosen: hot green tea (provided, very flavourful) — miso soup (came w/order – plain, warm, and tasty) — spicy agadashi tofu (cubes of lightly-battered, pan-fried tofu, in spicy, tasty sauce – yum) — prawn and yam tempura appetizer (two prawns, four veggies – well-prepared, light, crispy batter, flavourful) — California roll combo (California rolls and maki rolls – ingredients very fresh and tasty) — assorted sashimi (portion size was a little small, but ingredients were well-prepared, fresh, and flavourful) — seafood yakisoba (pan-fried soba noodles, w/selections of seafood and veggies – well-presented and prepared, steaming hot, flavourful, and sure tasty).These dishes were some well-known favourites of ours, and they offered a rather nice selection of hot & cold, textures, flavours, and tastes. They were much-enjoyed, and absolutely nothing was left on our plates to go back to the kitchen. Our dinner at Kibo was such a pleasurable experience — we sure hope get back to Hope for a return visit sometime soon.s long 🙂
