I should have followed my instincts on this place. (Instinct: Fusion restaurants rarely get…read moreanything perfectly right - a jack of all trades is a master of none - as the saying goes). In this case, the Hot Stone Bibimbap with Crispy Tofu ($23) was inauthentic in so many ways. Way too many carrots and broccoli - none of which was pickled banchan style. The rice was overcooked white rice that didn't have any oil element in it to actually crisp up in the dolsot hot stone pot, and the crispy tofu was overfried. Basically a fake-it-till-you-make-it attempt at a bibimbap that happens to have a legit stone pot. But if the ingredients are a joke, it doesn't matter. I would never order this again. Don't be tempted if you are familiar with how this dish is supposed to be prepared.

First & last visit here. Came here with my friend after a morning of shopping. Everything about…read morethis place was disappointing. There was a bug in my water! They served my food on a plate that was chipped on two corners! As for the food--the Miso soup was cold, mediocre at best as the sesame chicken, you're eating cold sticky breading of something, (dare I say, it doesn't taste like chicken!) and the white rice was cold, hard, not fully cooked. I could barely take 3-4 bites and we decided to leave. My friend had Tai Curry chicken and she took two bites, pushing her plate away. We couldn't take another bite. I was afraid to even take a drink of my water that was replaced. I assume it was the manager that asked if we cared for a to-go box as we sat there with our plates untouched, we said no. Explained that everything about our lunch experience was not good; he adjusted our bill slightly and asked for us to come back and give them another try with a different dish. No thank you.

This place used to make some quality food but our recent take out order was less than desirable…read more The sesame chicken was so heavily breaded you were guessing if there was chicken in there. When you did get some it was extremely dry. The roasted duck....seemed to be sitting in the kitchen for a few days, some hoisin thrown on it and reheated (again). Even the book choy was limp....not crispy and crunchy. Soooo much sodium in the sauces made it additionally inedible. I wouldn't recommend.

Even the donuts were made fresh, which I highly recommend -- although I didn't take a picture. I ordered them for dessert with a side of chocolate for dipping.

Overall, great service and a great experience.

We recently moved from the area to Columbus and we've found ourselves making the trip back for Ichiban. The manager is a sweetheart! If something makes you unhappy, you tell him, he'll make it better. He's friendly and attentive and we've talked several times about markets in Columbus and authentic places to eat in MY area so I don't have to drive to see him. How sweet is that? He's even treated us to an appetizer or desert now and then and mine always comes with an orchid. LOVE that! The staff are very friendly, attentive and helpful with questions and assistance with food allergies or even their preference. I've heard the manager discretely say something to staff and they are right on it, making sure every customer's needs are met. The sushi is very, very good and we love to sit at the bar, nibble on salad or miso soup and watch Chef practice his art. Meats are held at the perfect temp, each piece is made with love and the plate is beautifully decorated with flowers or painted with a sauce to look like a dragon or heart. Don't miss the Ikura (salmon roe sushi.) Little bursts of salt water with each bite! We have gone with friends who are not sushi eaters and their food was very good. The noodles are great, the chicken and shrimp are always just right. We have never been seated at the hibachi because our tables always want something different. We'll be back many times over.

Probably one of the worst meals we have had in 6 months dining out. Ichiban Sushi & Hibachi was…read moresimply terrible. From start to finish...the clear soup (served in almost every Habachi Japanese restaurant tasted like "ham"...everyone at our table thought so too), the salad dressing (usually light and "ginger" forward tasted like ranch dressing with rose water...just odd). Then they gave us only one sauce with the entree (supposed to be like yum-yum sauce...weird sweet and not a Japanese flavor at all). Next was our "Habachi chef"...lousy engagement with the table, did nothing to "perform" and entertain the kids (or adults) at our table. We also could barely understand him - not sure if it was a language barrier or him mumbling - he clearly could care less about his job or engaging with the customers. His cooking skills were dismal at best...used little oil, used little butter, added WATER TO EVERYTHING he cooked...and it tasted like it. Shrimp cooked with water is just steamed shrimp that is rubbery. NO FLAVOR and should have saute/soy color on it...no color at all (see pic) - no lemon even on his cart. The fried rice was a joke...white rice (with more water added on the grill) had tiny bit of soy sauce and 2 eggs for 5 orders of fried rice - no lemon...THAT'S IT...NO GREEN ONION, NO MUSHROOM, NO SESAME SEEDS and again no hibachi grill color to it. We could have gotten a better Japanese meal at Wendy's (and should have). We had no soy sauce on the table - had to go and ask at the bar for some. When they cleared our plates (with 1/2 the food on them), I told them that dinner was not good, but even that didn't get any attention...everyone suddenly couldn't communicate. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY AT Ichiban Sushi & Hibachi in Mt. Vernon. Drive 40 minutes to Columbus to House of Japan or Benihana...where they at least care about the customer experience and know how to make Hibachi food!

Everything was clean but the staff seemed disgusted that people were coming in at 8pm... you are located in a college town. I ordered two bowls both with purple rice. After getting the rice I asked for the glass noodles and the lady snapped at me saying that I already got rice as my base, I simply stated I just wanted it as a topping. She went on saying "it's a base not a topping" I've been to bibibop over 50 times in the last 3 years, and have never gotten that comment, I've always been given a small scoop that is topping size. Unsure if she didn't want them to have to make more because they were low or what but it really put a bad taste in my mouth. There was 2 other girls working who were very sweet and kind of looked like "unsure why she did that" but it's whatever.
