Ichiban Japanese Grill

Awesome food, my picture hangs inside, I wish they would bring the wraps back from like 2003.

One of our go-to restaurants when we're in Tupelo. You get a lot of good food for a low price- usually my husband and I can both eat for under 25 dollars. The sushi is surprisingly good. When you walk in to the place it doesn't look like the sort of restaurant that would have decent sushi, but it's quite good, if a little messy presentation wise. I like the yakatori chicken, or the plain udon with veggies. As far as sushi goes, everything I've tried has been delicious, but I like a classic california roll. My only complaint- the tables are sticky and it doesn't wash off.

How do you have items on the menu then tell the customer " we don't make it that way" ..then why the hell have it on the menu?? Will not be back, and trust me, in a town with more opens for the same kind of place, I will be telling everyone...

Try the mango peanut avocado salad, the spicy kani salad, and the steak udon (add extra vegetables)!

Sushi is good but not on par with places like Osaka, Sakura or Sekisui.. Service was nice and friendly. It's average! A little dirty inside but I'd come again.

The dynamite sticks are great, the boxes are great. Everything I've had here is great. The pink sauce is even better than most. Please remember your own silverware if you plan on getting takeout though. Mine will be cold tonight by the time I get to eat it.

Ordered a dynamite roll, got horribly fishy eel. Atmosphere feels like it used to be a Captain D's or some other chain restaurant. Found out from people who have worked there that they refuse to hire black people, so racist to boot. Won't be back.

It doesn't look like much from the outside but it's a hidden gem. We drive an hour each way to eat here at least once a month. They have a really good sushi chef. The crab Rangoon is awesome. Take some of their shrimp boil home with you. Get it ichiban style and extra spicy. Won't be disappointed.

Must stop spot! Love the sushi rolls & noodles! Don't forget to try the yummy shrimp sauce!

Friendly staff. Great value for Great flavor. I had the chicken teriyaki, fried rice with crab rangoon and ginger dressing salad. My order was to go. Make sure you ask for everything you need, otherwise you will not get it. Forks Napkins etc. Don't let old aged environment discourage you. The only downside to my dinner was my salad was place in the same container with the chicken and rice. The salad got warm and soggy. Can't wait to try another dish!
