Kibuka
Casual Japanese · Gràcia, Barcelona · €€€
Open since 2004
Opened in Gràcia in 2004 by Brazilian-Japanese siblings — now a small Barcelona chain (Verdi, Goya, Llull) plus a take-out branch. Sushi-izakaya format: bold-sauced makis, gyozas, tempura, ramen, and an unusually deep dessert list.

Founded in 2004 by Brazilian-Japanese siblings Multiple Barcelona locations: original on Verdi 64 (Gràcia), Goya 9 (Gràcia), Llull 155 (Poblenou), plus a take-out 'Fast Kibuka' A dedicated 'Kibuka Ramen' branch handles the deeper noodle program
Goya 9 has a glass ceiling and a bright daytime dining room; Verdi 64 keeps the original minimalist design Tables sit close together; the room runs young and informal
