They always have high quality food and very creative choices that is hard to find somewhere else. The place is very nice and cozy and usually have different options for sitting. The decoration adds to the coziness. Staff have been always polite, friendly and helpful. Parking is not an issue but reservations are recommended especially for busy days and holidays. The place is popular and may add to your wait time. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Recently they have opened up to having dine-in, and we thought we'd finally go back and have a meal in. I can't believe that I haven't written about Ichiban in the past. I love this little place. Quaint, unassuming, with all the atmosphere you'd expect from a small sushi shop. Ichiban has a very extensive menu, and most types of Japanese meals you can think of they have them. I have tried the odd few items on the menu, but I keep coming back to the sushi/rolls. Tonight's selection was not to disappoint as per all the prior visits to Ichiban. We ordered a Red Dragon, White Dragon and Tropical roll. Our servers were all decked out in protective gear, and I appreciate that, and were incredibly efficient. Tea and water was on the table in no time and the rolls were not far behind. Considering all of the walk-ins for take-out orders we saw, I was very pleasantly surprised to see how fast the kitchen and sushi chefs pump out the food. Rolls were delish as we had come to expect. Overall, this is my go-to for sushi. Moderately priced, fresh, tasty, great service. This is a winning recipe ! I'll be back to try out a few more of the large variety of rolls/maki on the menu.

Time for an updated review, seeing their prices have gone up since I last reviewed. Tuesdays and…read moreThursdays are great times to dine in; there are dine in specials on Monday (Shrimp Tempura), Tuesday (Love Boat), Thursday (Dragon Eye Roll special) and Friday. They have recently changed their menu. The restaurant wasn't busy tonight. It is very kid friendly, with high chair(s). There are no change tables but there is a table in the bathroom. The kids love miso soup, tempura and the yaki udon. If you ordered the bento boxes, miso soup comes with it. So, it was economical to order bento boxes and let the kids eat off our plates while we each had a small serving of sashimi with Bento Box B pption. Dinner for 4 came to around $72 (two bento boxes and 2 dragon eye rolls) after taxes and gratuity, so it is a nice place to go to for special occasions or when you are in the mood for good Japanese food.

I wasn't too crazy about the Edmonton one but I enjoyed my dragon eye roll.

This is my second time to Sushi Toshi, the all-you-can-eat sushi (and other foods) Japanese…read morerestaurant. I have ordered sushi rolls, nagiri, sashimi, maki and a temaki (cone). I ordres an assortment of them - red snapper, tuna and salmon for the sushi, California and Alberta rolls, and tempura shrimp cone. This time around I ordered the beef tataki, stir fried udon with chicken, miso soup and the 6 oz steak (for this one, a hot stone is brought to your table and you sear the steak on it; sauce are also available for this dish). I had green tea to drink and had green tea ice cream for desert. Service was very good and rapid, and very attentive and polite. The restaurant's ambiance is busy and popular, but it's quite easy to relax and enjoy the food and restaurant while there.

In all my years of eating sushi, I've never went to an AYCE sushi place until now. So this was my…read morefirst AYCE experience here. And after our dinner, this place will be pretty difficult to beat. We came here for our anniversary dinner. My boyfriend put in a reservation earlier, and once we arrived we were seated pretty quickly. It was a Monday night but I was so surprised at how packed the place was. This was our first time here so the server explained how ordering on the slip works. Wait time wasn't terrible. And like I mentioned before, this place was so packed and full of people. All the servers that night were weaving through aisles, delivering food, and taking orders. They were all hustling. Food was delicious. We started off with a couple of rolls like California Rolls, Avocado, Tuna, Salmon, and Tamago. The sushi rolls were pretty small, but I didn't have a problem with it. Since it's AYCE, I knew that we'd have much more food coming. I was very impressed by the quality of fish. It tasted very fresh. Also we ordered the seared Beef Nigiri and that was delicious. We ended up ordering more of that later. For the next round, we ordered Edamame, Beef (? it was like a beef galbi cut but I forgot the name of it on the menu), Chicken Skewers, Green Onion Cake, and Tempura. For our Tempura veggies we chose pumpkin, yam, and eggplant. I loved the tempura. It was definitely a highlight of the night. The batter was very crispy, light, and all the tempura came out hot. It was wonderful. We ended up getting more after the first round of tempura because it was too good. The Chicken Skewers were phenomenal. My boyfriend and I were saying that if we had the Chicken Skewers with rice, that would just be enough. The flavor of the sauce was great: savory, slightly sweet, it was reminiscent of a teriyaki flavor for me. And lastly, we had the BC Roll, Alberta Roll, Crunchy Roll, Philadelphia Roll, the seared Beef Nigiri again, and a few other rolls. At this point of the dinner we barely had any steam left but somehow we managed. Every single we thing we ate was just amazing. I wasn't disappointed by anything we ordered actually it was just great. I will say the Crunchy Roll had this smokiness that scratched my brain in the best way possible and I was so impressed by that bite. This was such an unforgettable experience and the best place we've spent our anniversary haha. 10/10, take my money. To Sushi Toshi, I'll be thinking about you.

My friend was celebrating her 50th birthday and her husband chose Japanese Village in Sherwood…read morePark. I didn't even know Sherwood Park has a Japanese Village and I hadn't been to one in about 15 years. We had 14 in our group but this wasn't an issue as we were all able to all sit around two grills with two grill cooks. Our server did a great job of taking our drink orders, filling up our water glasses and making sure we were happy. I personally started with a pint of their house beer and the Tuna Sashimi. Both were tasty. For my main course I had Teppan - Yaki Dinner (Teriyaki Chicken) It came with soup, salad and green tea. Our grill cook was a nice young man who brought a smile to our face and kept us chuckling. For the value, I was happy with my meal, the price I payed and the fun interacting with our cook. I would definitely go back with a group of friends.

So this review is a bit late but thought I should still write it as my Dad (who only ever really…read moreenjoys eating steak and potatoes or sometimes a pizza) thought this was a good enough restaurant to return to. So what made it that great that my dad would give it such a high review? First, if you've never seen an advertisement for this place, prepare yourself for ongoing talking and some well rehearsed comedy from the chefs. There literally is a live cooking show being done with your meals right in front of you. This combination of humour and meal prep was a big hit for my family (the 5 of us were constantly commenting on how things were being cooked, what was new to us and encouraging the ongoing trials of the fork toss plus the salt and pepper tossing trick by the chef). Second, it might be a Japanese place but they have steak! You may have guessed with my intro but that was an important decision factor in choosing a restaurant. We wanted a different place for the early Christmas family gathering but something everyone could enjoy. Third, they're very diligent about respecting allergies. My sister-in-law gets very ill with her allergies. So it's nice not having to worry. They set her food specifically on one area of the grill and no other food was ever placed there. Hers was never combined with the rest of ours either. They also had a different soup for her to enjoy and did a vinaigrette on her salad instead of the house dressing. The food itself is a decent price for a fine dining experience and what you get with the dinner. There's soup, salad, grilled shrimp, grilled veggies and whatever you choose as your main. All with great flavour and you get two different dipping sauces - one being better for meat and other with vegetables. Obviously if you select the options of more seafood to accompany the main piece of the meal, the price is more expensive. We all kept it pretty simple. Two with shrimp dinners, two with New York steaks and one with teriyaki beef. We were all quite happy with our portions and if you feel you need extra rice, they will bring more out. If you have saved a bit of room, there's lots of dessert options too but that comes with an additional price. I really was quite happy with that large selection of mocktails to try but for those that want it, there's a large selection of mixed alcoholic drinks, wine, beer, etc. The place is accessible from the outside doors to the grill tables and even though my brother struggles to see in dim lighting, there's enough random lighting that we found a well lit spot at the table for him. I liked that I didn't have to watch for random levels or steps. There are a few booths throughout the restaurant for those that maybe want a more secluded meal but there's no grills for those spots. So after such a glowing review, why am I only giving it 4 stars? Well as I had booked ahead of time and specifically gave a number of 5 people for the reservation, it would have been nice to know we would not have anything started to be cooked, nor our meal order taken until they fill the rest of the table around the grill. If I had that information, I could have easily invited a couple of friends to join. However as this came to us as surprise, it meant even though we didn't know who was joining us, we were forced to awkwardly wait over 15 min to have them arrive and then start giving our order when they were ready. At least some of the drinks had made it out by then but the place was starting to fill up so the noise level was increasing. Luckily for us my mom randomly know the couple that was sat at our grill table but there were parts of the dinner you could tell they would have enjoyed having their own time as a couple (as I'm quite sure they weren't informed they'd be part of a bigger table being that they were surprised that my mom thanked them for arriving on time so we can now order when they are ready). It would have also been a different experience for my family too without the combined table situation. I had to remind the chef who's steak was being prepared due to the over eager guy wanting a well done steak the same time as a medium rare... Things eventually got served to everyone but only because I spoke up, I was able to get near to what I had requested (glad that my dad at least got his medium rare) even though everyone had reconfirmed orders when the chef was placing the meat on the grill. Lastly, the noise in the restaurant was so high at the end of our meal that not only did my dad stop trying to have a conversation but so did the rest of us. So instead of savouring dessert, I ate it quickly as all I wanted was to pay the bill fast and just leave the noise. I've gone once before on a week night back in April and it was more manageable for noise level. This being due to not all grills were full nor was the restaurant as full.

Clean though, however they blast the music in the bathroom. Ramen was decent. Definately not the best in the city, but for the price point good. It is also a smaller bowl, I noticed that couples were splitting and order of sushi or rolls which seemed like a good idea. My choice of ramen was red which was claimed to be spicy . It wasn't too spicy and so if I ordered this again, I would ask for some chili oil on the side. My husband ordered the goma which was sesame paste based. Noodles were lovely. However my pork belly was pretty raw. Still worth it to go and try.
