They were told about the County Line by a local, and they were welcomed with open arms by the owner. She could see how scared my 8 year old nephew was and whisked him away and introduced him to her dog Jake. He was quickly put at ease and after about an hour, the tornado had changed paths and it was safe to leave. I'm really not one to write reviews of places I haven't been, but I was really touched by this story and the kindness of the owner and I feel it's something that should be commended. I'd be glad to stop in, if I'm ever en route or in the area. It's nice to see there are some special people in the world! Thank You!!

It's also located inside of an old bank, so we wanted to check this one out. We were seated immediately and received great service. The waitress was new, but already familiar with the menu. She made recommendations and was very attentive. We started with the pretzel and I can't wait for you to see the photo of how huge this thing is! We all three ate some of it, and there was enough for two people left once we were all done. It's massive! For the entree, I had the chicken quesadillas, my husband had the salmon bowl, and my son had the French dip. The food was all very good and if he chooses Dubuque for college, we will definitely be back!

I thought maybe it was me, but observed her rude to others. This is a restaurant's first chance to set the tone, and she is not doing them any justice. We got a table and ordered drinks. My mom got the loaded Bloody Mary, which she said was delicious. It also was LOADED. Get this for sure! My SIL got the broasted chicken and said it was tasty as well. If you like chicken, it would be worth trying. Sadly I got a Mushroom and Swiss burger and it was fine. I always get burgers well done from a food safety perspective. It was medium at best. We already waited 40 minutes for food so I didn't send it back. The server never came back to ask how our food was either. My niece got a grilled cheese on the kid's menu. It was 90% bread for a 4 year old. Parents don't get this option! It's not worth the money. I know they were busy so trying to be respectful of that. Unfortunately the service was slow, the staff lacking and the food average to below, so go for a drink but choose your food wisely.

Let me start with READ YOUR CREDIT CARD SLIP before you sign it to avoid double tipping in error!…read more Made a reservation for Monday night at their first seating, 4:00 pm. They don't open the door until 4:00 so getting there early doesn't work. We ended up being the only 2 at the Hibachi table this night. I have to say it's bit awkward to have the chef all to yourselves. They have added some caveats to the Hibachi seating... only 5 split checks per group, at least half your party had to be having hibachi, and a mandatory 18% tip is added to every check, no matter the size of your party. Since we usually tip 20%, this actually works out to disservice for the staff. Then, when we got the credit card slip to sign, there was another place to add a tip and their suggested tipping percentages were on the total of food, 18% tip and tax. Now, to the food! I had chicken hibachi and my hubby had chicken and scallops. So delicious. It's always enough that we have another meal to bring home for the next day. My only real complaint is that they need to work out the tip suggestions on the credit slips since they already charged you a tip.

Based on one lunch visit, Ichiban is the most excellent sushi I have had since living in Alaska for 40 years. The food is what it's all about, but the atmosphere and service were everything I hope for in a high end West Coast Japanese restaurant. Maybe even better, considering these folks have a beautiful old fashioned Midwest Steakhouse style bar in addition to the Tokyo style sushi bar and a teppanyaki dinner room. Damn! This place has it all. My ala carte sushi was PERFECTLY proportioned and as fresh as it gets, short of picking your fish live from a tank. In my recent experience, American nigiri sushi is heading towards oversized chunks of crudely butchered fish on top of equally oversized and poorly seasoned rice balls. Today, I thought I was back in some alleyway Tokyo eatery. Damn near magic. Did I suggest magic??? These folks had FRESH UNI!!!!! In Iowa? Amazing. Perfect experience? No. The tempura appetizer was the low point of the meal, but it's relative. Still pretty good, all things considered, just not the magic light golden crispy tempura batter of my Asian dreams. Ichiban has a small element of Chinese fusion, but is pretty much true to its Japanese theme. The wa shoku will not disappoint. Gyoza are always my tell when trying a new Japanese restaurant. These were excellent little pork morsels in delicate tender skins, most excellently prepared, but may have been a commercial frozen product. The sauce was a Chinese style mustard, excellent, but not a classic Japanese presentation. Still, the plating was far better than most I've had lately, other than my own preparation, of course. I left Ichiban feeling better about the food, sake, and service than I have for ages. This place is a gem. I'm coming back soon to work my way through the menu, especially the nabe yaki udon bowl. As a purist, I totally overlook the 'rolls', but if that's your thing theirs were legion and from what I saw on other tables, quite generous portions. So, whatever you are looking for th the Japanese genre, you won't go wrong with Ichiban. Number one!
