I've never had persimmon before, but these bars were a great introduction. The filling was sweet and tangy, and the crust was nice and flaky. I would definitely make them again.

The bars were easy to make and they turned out great! The only thing I would change is to use a different type of crust. I used a graham cracker crust, but I think a shortbread crust would be better.

These bars were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have liked them better if I had used less sugar in the filling. Otherwise, they were very good.
