It's just super interactive and fun. I just love it. It's like combining my favorite two things in life - eating and shopping. I also like how there is a hot water dispenser at your table, and that you can use the matcha powder to make green tea on the spot.

How good could sushi be if it is served on a conveyor belt? At Sen-Ryo, pretty damn good! Came here…read morewhile visiting Hong Kong and staying across the road at the Park Lane Hotel. For the quality of the sushi served here, the prices are pretty good. The most expensive piece I had was the Kobe beef sushi, which came out to about 7 USD per piece. It was so good though, that I ended up having three pieces! By the end of my meal, I had a stack of ten dishes in front of me and I was in a state of complete satisfaction and nirvana. HK people know how to eat!

Host and waiters are very polite & professional. They presented us a menu slips with English translation and you can pencil what you want and hand it to the waiter - all-you-can-eat! Sushi was very fresh and there are also warm dishes from gyoza to lamb chop you can choose from. They do charge for special drinks such as smoothies - the one that I ordered was very good. For lunch it is reasonably priced - only around HK$200 per person. Unlike other high-priced Japanese restaurant, the decoration is typical Hong Kong restaurant look, however, I think the quality of sushi is much higher than other sushi buffets I have tried around town. Highly recommended!

An absolute must eat in Hong Kong! Come for the crunch…read more Prior to Saboten, I have never actually had good tonkatsu. In my experience, all tonkatsu was flat and soggy, so it never appeared appetizing to me. But Saboten and a visit to Japan opened my eyes and my ears (that crunch!). The tonkatsu here is juicy, tender, glistening white pork surrounded by a golden brown, super crispy deep fried delicious crunchy crust! The first bite totally changed my perspective on this dish. The whole meal from beginning to end is just filled with so many textures and tastes, it's such a good, comprehensive, satisfying meal! You are seated comfortably and offered UNLIMITED cabbage salad with picked veggies. Then you get a small, cute bowl of sesame seeds and a small pestle (surikogi) to crush your sesame. Once you've had your fun crushing your sesame, you can assemble your cabbage, pickled veggies and sesame into a salad and top with the creamy sesame dressing (the best!). The unlimited/all you can eat cabbage salad is served to you throughout your meal. It pairs perfectly with your tonkatsu and lightens up your meal. You will certainly eat a ton of this, more cabbage than you've ever eaten in one sitting. And rightly so because I would enjoy it as a meal alone! There is a good variety of tonkatsu here; something to suit everyone's taste. The tonkatsu can be eaten as-is with rice, or in a curry, or topped with radish, etc. There are even combo options that have different mixes of shrimp, oysters, etc. with a smaller portion of tonkatsu. My favorite option is the tonkatsu & roll combo. You must order the roll, it's unique: a small ball of pork with filling. Sooo good. There are three options, but ham & cheese is my favorite. The tonkatsu is served on a mini tonkatsu rack so that it is crispy all around. Your table will have all the accoutrements: mustard, tonkatsu sauce, salad dressing, etc. You really won't need much else. (I don't think I've ever written tonkatsu so many times in my life, but this restaurant will make you so excited about it!) It's located in the busybusybusy-ness of Causeway Bay and while there are endless food options here, you will not be disappointed when you try Saboten. This may be the best tonkatsu outside of Japan. The restaurant is clean, roomy, comfortable. Service has always been attentive and quick; keep the cabbage coming! And as I've clearly illustrated above, the food is amazing, every time. Don't forget to get your stamp card stamped so you can come back for more crunch!

They occupied the whole floor of 19/F of the building, like many hidden restaurants in HK where they're completely off the streets. Once you exit the elevator, you'll see the sake display case on the left. It seems like they have a good selection. We were seated at the bar. I got the 12-piece sashimi and my sis got the eel rice. Wow the seafood were super fresh and they weren't your regular selection. There was fish and way of preparation that I never heard of. Also everything is seasoned already according to the chef's wish so you won't find soy sauce on the table, which you know is a legit Japanese sushi restaurant! However there's extra fresh wasabi for you if you so incline to eat it plain like me... for details of fish, check out the pics! The eel rice was their signature dish here. It has to be eaten right away so the skin won't turn soggy. It's crispy with the right amount of seasoning and the rice was cooked perfectly! Even the house sake was delicious. Given the full amazing experience with high-end sashimi quality plus a few fish ordered a la carte, the price was within reason. Our lunch ended being HKD 1100 which is about USD 140 including mandatory 10% service charge and no tax, so roughly $70 per person. My lunch set actually cost about $50 but that was almost like an omakase by itself! The price was comparable to sushi ota in San Diego, but the quality is much much much better! Great experience and will take my hubby there next time!

Why is the name comical? Well "bilibala" is supposedly what loud chatters sound like in Cantonese and thus the name is aptly suited then for a bar serving drinks and yakitori which is perfect for a night out chit chatting with friends. Some of the things we tried were: Cold Japanese Tomato with Black Truffle ($58) - the black truffle was quite aromatic while the sweet and fresh tomatoes made for a very refreshing snack. Japanese Fish Ball with Wasabi ($48) - I was pleasantly surprised by this unique combination as the chewy fish balls went perfectly with the spicy wasabi. Tamagoyaki ($58) - the tamagoyaki was well executed with the many soft layers of sweet egg. Lychee with Bacon ($32) - whoever thought of this combination of lychee with bacon is pure genius. The sweetness of the lychee balanced the saltiness of the meat perfectly. Just be careful when eating this as the lychee may still be quite hot and may burn your mouth. Ox Tongue ($40) - the ox tongue was a bit average as the tongue could be thicker and bouncier in texture but the array of sauces for the yakitori were a nice touch. Fresh Eel ($88) - Loved the crispiness of the skin and the tenderness of the eel! Tsukune ($48) - the ever classic minced chicken meatball was delicious to eat as bits of chewy cartilage had been incorporated into the meatball so it was crunchy-licious! Grilled Rice Roll ($38 each) - in 3 flavors: cod fish roe, pickled plum, and bonito flakes. The rice rolls were quite crunchy to eat while I especially liked the spiciness of the cod fish roe and the tartness of the pickled plum. Japanese Mochi with Cheese ($28) - finally we ended the night perfectly with these scrumptiously soft and chewy mochi filled with melting cheese that were just heavenly to eat. Verdict - the affordable price tags and great quality of food at Bilibala make it a great spot for happy hour with friends to eat and drink the night away.

The hostess stand was empty during prime lunch hour and I had to flag staff down to be seated. Once seated, the menus were dropped off and we flipped through several pages showcasing a wide variety of Japanese cuisine including soups, salads, sushi, sashimi, katsu, rice dishes, noodles, amd tempura. There were also set menus where soup, salad, + a small side accompanied the main course. I opted for the chirashi sashimi gozen which was filled with a nice variety of raw fish including uni, amaebi, + ikura. The taste was quite fresh but the bowl it came in was not packed with rice...actually packed pretty loosely and the depth of the bowl was deceptive. The chawanmushi it came with was very good though, as the savory steamed egg pudding was smooth and fragrant. My friends ordered a lunch set menu item and the omelet over rice with wagyu beef. They didn't think the price was worth the amount of food they got and they both agreed that there are better options. To be honest, I had higher expectations from this restaurant. The service during our meal was also spotty and inconsistent, as we did not have a primary server bt rather many. We are not in a hurry to come back.
