Bibida is a Korean and Japanese restaurant at 1 Hillgate Street in Notting Hill. Its name draws inspiration from the Korean idea of mixing ingredients together, reflecting a menu that brings two distinct East Asian traditions into one intimate dining room. Tables are arranged across two floors, while seats at the sushi counter offer a closer view of the chefs at work.
Korean dishes begin with homemade kimchi, dumplings, seafood pancake and crisp fried chicken. At the barbecue, beef and pork bulgogi, pork belly and marinated short ribs combine savoury sauces with the flavour of the grill. Spicy soft tofu stew and tofu kimchi add warming, deeply seasoned choices for guests who prefer a bubbling dish from the kitchen.
Hot stone bibimbap arrives with rice, vegetables and a choice of toppings that continue cooking against the heated bowl. Spicy chicken, salmon teriyaki and fried tofu provide further substantial plates. The Japanese side of the menu includes agedashi tofu, takoyaki, tempura, ramen and donburi, moving from light snacks to complete rice and noodle meals.
Sushi is prepared as sashimi, nigiri, hoso maki and larger rolls, with mixed selections suited to sharing or building into a full meal. Sake, wine and beer are chosen to accompany both grilled food and fresh fish, alongside alcohol free drinks. Vegetarian options appear throughout the menu, making Bibida equally suitable for a quick sushi visit or a long shared dinner.
