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!

I went with a two meat Korean combo plate, shredded beef and chicken katsu. And it was amazing. $19 for the two meats, but a huge serving of meats plus white rice, cabbage under the katsu, macaroni salad, and broccoli. Plus a dipping sauce, which I used for the katsu. That was fried perfectly, moist on the inside, crunchy on the outside. Underneath the beef, so some of the sauces from that soaked in. The beef was tender, and there were beautifully sautéed onions with it. Just good all around. Even the macaroni salad, which is not something I order on its own, was hearty and flavorful, in a subtle way to balance the stronger meat flavors. Good service. Handy off the highway. I'm sure I will be back.

I heard they have some of the best crab Rangoon in the city, so you know I'd get over here…read moreeventually. (Actually, they are on the awesome crab Rangoon database, https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1QSQhg2_bTPApajJmPVewjtMe0A3QmIWnms3-CccL7vM/edit?gid=0#gid=0.) And my review is partly skewed toward that crab Rangoon, though I had a really good experience all in all. In a strip out front of Meijer, easy access and parking. Opens at 11 but they were open a bit before that today, which was nice. Super friendly and efficient service the whole way through. Dark inside but not gloomy; cozy. Lots on the menu, and I had a hard time deciding. Went with the Rangoon, of course, and a lunch special: 3 sushi rolls. That comes with soup or salad, and I had the miso soup, pretty darn good and with more tofu and seaweed than most. The crab Rangoon came out next and: oh my. Perfectly wrapped little packages of goodness. Beautifully plated, nicely made, and filled with cheese and a good amount of crab. Tasty, nice texture contrast between the filling and the thin crunchy shell, and served with a slightly-spicy homemade (I am guessing) sauce. Then the sushi trio. Again beautifully plated. I got eel and avocado, spicy tuna, and kani. The kani was my favorite, then the eel, then tuna. Best sushi around? Nah. But pretty good, and a really good deal. Fair sized rolls. Nicely made. The eel was tender and flavorful. The kani was good. Spicy tuna was just okay. I'll be back, for Rangoon and probably entrees. Out of my way, but glad I came today. Enjoyed the whole visit.
