Ichiban Japanese Cuisine

I love this place. I used to come often when I worked over this way and haven't been in years. They are still holding it steady for a strip mall sushi place. Super fresh. Well prepared. The prices are good. The double hot and Tampa roles are top notch! And all the classics are solid. I ordered to go and the staff was great while I waited.

Great service with awesome food. I took a group of 20 and it was seamless! Everybody was able to eat well for a reasonable cost. And we are looking forward to going back again one day.

We should have known when we ordered hot tea and it came luke warm at best. But we went ahead and ordered anyway. The tempura batter was not light, like most tempura batter. It was dense, like pancake batter. Made for very bready tempura. The beef teriyaki was the toughest beef ever. Really, after chewing forever you just didn't really want to take another bite. The two sushi rolls were tasteless. Thank goodness for soy sauce! They had no taste otherwise. Definitely will not return! Worst Japanese food I have ever eaten.

My friends and I really wanted to come here on a recent trip and got seated right away. The menu looked pretty good but one of my best friends has a shellfish allergy. We asked them if they cook separately to accommodate for that and they said no. So we had to leave, which was a bummer. I've been to many places like this before that took allergies into account so it was a bit surprising. The menu did look good though so if you don't have any restrictions, then maybe check it out.

3.5 stars. This place has been here forever! I remember coming here over twenty years ago when it was one of the few sushi places in town. With so many options out there now, I haven't been here in years, but my friend and I were in the neighborhood and decided to give it a try.They have sushi lunch specials, Boxes A-D, but they have put their "price" sticker over what actually comes in the sushi lunch box, which makes it hard to read. You're better off looking online to see what the options are, and even then what it says and what you receive will be slightly different.I started with the asparagus special roll. It was okay, but the asparagus was mushy-I'm not sure if they used canned, or just overcooked it. For my meal I had Box B, which came with California roll, tuna, salmon, white fish, yellowtail, masago, seaweed, and a ginger salad. This was good, and tasted fresh, although the tuna was surprisingly flavorless. One final note - the diet soda was flat and tasted terrible; stick with drinking tea or water.Service was friendly and efficient, and there is free parking in the lot out front if you can find a space in this very busy strip mall. If you're in the area, this is a good spot for decent seafood.

The worst sushi ever! Ordered take out, soft shell appetizer more breading then crab and was hard as a rock, monk roll was also horrible also dry and overcooked it was mushy, the octopus was sliced so thick it was like chewing an eraser.

Went a couple times in the past week.Miso soup is still amazing. The salmon sashimi is perfect. Spicy tuna roll is perfect. Order the hot sake at happy hour.The dinner box special is reasonably priced and the perfect size for two women to share...or one really hungry woman.

Omg! I haven't eat this place for a while.. last time that I came was still good but this time omg! Horrible... I always have good memories on this restaurant.. today we order some lunch special and what can I say... the food was sooo little for the price, the box lunch D, the Mexican roll and the other roll was so bad... the rice crumbles down when you pick it up.. and I felt that the rice was soo hard that I think was last night rice. We also order volcano roll.. and the roll keep falling apart same thing the rice was sooo hard.. my experience was sooo bad! My husband ordered box A and his sashimi was sooo small that look like they cut in half of the size from before.. so disappointing...

If you want to have inauthentic, unhealthy, overpriced, Chinese-owned JaPAnEsE food, be sure to come to this place!I ordered a $16 beef bowl. It only had some measly strips of fatty beef that apparently came from the freezer. The juice was also extra sugary and salty and the entire bowl of rice beneath the beef was covered in it. It's more like rice soaked in oil instead of a normal beef bowl.My gf ordered a udon in soup. Again, it's just plain old udon noodle w/ nothing spectacular. No protein, cheap veggies, costs about ~$15.We also ordered a takoyaki. None of them contained any noticeable pieces of octopus, just pure batter.This entire place says cheap on it: faded menu, shoddy decorations. I couldn't understand why they have the nuts to charge exorbitant prices for such bad food. The waitress was also loud and assertive while placing our order and checking out, makes the whole ambiance quite annoying.

This has been my sushi go to spot for over 20 years! Sooo fresh and amazing. The decor is comfortable and cute! Service is always amazing!
