Marci M.

I love a good food truck and this one definitely has the potential to be great but they need to lighten up on the garlic and the salt. I understand It's very easy to be heavy on the salt with Japanese cuisine because many of the sauces are very salty but this was beyond just too much salt from a sauce. And the flavor of the food was lost because it was masked by heavy garlic. The GOOD: * The quality of meat was great, I ordered filet mignon and it was very tender, great in texture, cooked perfectly and was clearly a quality cut of meat. * Food truck was very clean and orderly and so convenient. *Food came out quickly and piping hot. The NOT so good: * Terrible first impression, the lady who was taking orders was so unfriendly and unhelpful and just didn't make a great first impression. * Pricing is not clear. They had two very small menu boards one of them did not have prices on it and the other one was partly filled out but very confusing and hard to understand. They would List a price and then everything was an additional price. I didn't make sense. (next to the bowl it said $10+, I ordered a fried rice bowl with filet mignon and it was $19. So basically if I didn't add the nine dollars for the fillet you're telling me of one bowl of rice would've been $10? They should price it including a meets and then if you want to upgrade they should list it that way. I thought it was slightly over priced (for what I ordered) considering there were only eight pieces of meat on my bones (yes I counted) they really need to be more clear with their pricing. * I do love a carb, the fried rice is always my favorite part at any kind of hibachi restaurant... So the fact that about 70% of my rice went in the trash definitely says something. The rice was undercooked it was not your typical fluffy Japanese sticky rice. It was like a cheap uncle bens and it had a slight crunch to it, not a crunch from being fried but a crunch from not being cooked thoroughly. * WAY TOO MUCH GARLIC (and I love garlic but this was over the top I might be a bit spoiled because we have two of the most amazing Japanese Teppan hibachi style restaurants within about 5 miles of where I live (in Orange County) so I did go with the three stars because I really feel like this place has some potential, but they need to make some changes.

Yuck Bowl

Yum! Zero flavor and mega raw meat at its finest. Just a straight up no. For the price, taste, service and quality - it is fair to say that they are a huge let down. I'm trying my best to see what positive thing I can say... I guess that the food was hot when it was given? 80 bucks for 3 entrees with a side of fried rice. All flavorless, choice of meat (lobster and filet mignon) are not entirely cooked as requested, and service seemed like I was bothering them for ordering. Love supporting food trucks and small businesses. But for 80 bucks for 3 tiny and flavorless entrees, this is a straight up stealing from people.

Basura!!!!!!!!

Let's go in - First let's discuss the pricing. I've never paid $30 for a bowl of rice and noodles in my life before. My bowl was filled with what seemed to be endless rice, a splash of noodles and nothing else. I swore I asked for the New York (beef) and chicken. For this price I would have much rather went to the real Benihana's, at least that way I would have been at least satisfied. Secondly, the service was unsatisfactory! Nestled right in the corner of a large parking lot on busy PCH between a gas station, this place is definitely hard to miss. One would think the line for this truck would be stretched all the way to Mount Kilimanjaro. NOPE!!!!! And now I know why. The woman who took the order didn't even speak or understand English well. When I asked her for a menu she simply shook her head and smiled. I asked what kind of veggies does the combination plate come with and she shook her head and smiled. At this point, I should have known to take my business elsewhere but because I was immensely famished and was in need of sustenance, I had to give it a shot! Seriously, if you can't understand simple questions about the food and menu then please find someone who can. Lastly, I will say the food was freshly prepared. However, I can assure you that the only seasoning that was used on the entire bowl was salt. Okay I lied, they used a ton of salt and a splash of butter. I am not sure how this truck has 4.5 stars on Yelp but there was nothing about the food, service or pricing that warranted such a high rating. In the future I'll be more weary about trucks or any food establishments at that where there aren't any patrons in sight! Sorry Ben Y Ana, y'all are not it at All! Cool looking truck though (Kanye Shrug)! See only Pic below. Basura!

My disappointing bowl
Freddy F.

I ordered 2 bowls for my wife and I to take home. To my disappointment, our bowls barely had any meat. I could literally count the pieces of meat it came with. 10 tiny pieces. It was all rice. And the fact that I had to pay $40 dollars for this makes it very over priced. If anyone has recommendations to other spots, send it to me. I'm still hungry. Thank you. Anyway service was ok, the register guy showed me the total before I even finished ordering. His English wasn't that good so our conversation was just a lot of stare offs and figuring out what we're trying to say. Waited about 20 minutes for my order Although the taste was great, I would not come waste my hard earned money here again.

Filet mignon with fried rice
Arisa W.

Delicious hibachi food, the perfect filet mignon Loved it! : ) friendly service and had to get one for my husband too

Filet mignon and fried rice!  been wanting to try and did not disappoint!!!

Been wanting to try, but wasn't sure how a hibachi food truck would be, but was well worth it and will be back for sure. I tried the filet mignon and fried rice and it was delicious. I picked my meat temp. Had it with the ginger sauce that I love as well. Definitely recommend! And the guys working were very nice. And only waited 10 minutes! Great job

Our drinks took 20 minutes to arrive, and we waited an entire hour for our food after ordering. The seating was incredibly uncomfortable, and the awkward layout of the restaurant made the overall dining experience even worse. Unfortunately, the food was just as disappointing as the service. The loin katsu was incredibly tough, dry, and lacked flavor. The tuna tataki was equally bland and didn't taste fresh. The filet katsu was slightly better, but it arrived cold. Between the painfully slow service, uncomfortable seating, and extremely underwhelming food, I genuinely cannot think of a single redeeming quality about this experience, besides the nice ambiance. I've never been so disappointed by a restaurant, and I'm honestly shocked that an establishment of this quality is operating in Torrance. I would absolutely not recommend it.

The restaurant was fairly busy with people finishing up their meals, and the parking lot was busy too. If the spots nearby are full, you can park farther into the plaza and easily walk over. We ordered the Ten Zaru Soba with Vegetable Tempura on the side and the Chirashi Bowl. The soba was really good and had a slightly al dente texture, which is exactly how I like it. I also really enjoyed the tempura. The breading was super light and complemented the soba really well. The Chirashi Bowl was the surprise standout for us. The fish tasted incredibly fresh and everything in the bowl was delicious. We originally came with the soba more in mind, so I wasn't expecting the Chirashi Bowl to impress me as much as it did. Overall, I really enjoyed our meal at Ichimiann. Between the soba, light tempura, and surprisingly great Chirashi Bowl, there was a lot to love. I'd definitely come back!

The unagi was a good portion and the udon noodles were terrific. I'm looking forward to coming back and trying the soba noodles next time. If you're on the hunt for authentic soba or udon noodles, this is your spot.

The Shrimp Tempura Plate comes with a variety of tempura-battered items including four shrimp, kabocha (squash), fish, seaweed, and a shishito pepper. On the side, you get a bowl of rice, tempura-battered soft-boiled egg, and dipping sauce that comes with a generous scoop of grated daikon radish. Everything is spot on. The tempura batter is perfectly coated on each item and crispy. I'm usually not a fan of kabocha since it tends to come out mushy. However, here, it's crunchy and delicious. If I had to choose my favorite parts of the meal, they would be the tempura-battered soft-boiled egg and seaweed. If you break the yolk over the rice, it's very satisfying to eat. And the seaweed is crispy like a potato chip. Maybe I haven't been to enough tempura shops, but I think these two items are particularly special. If tempura is not your thing, they do serve other stuff. The sashimi here is nothing to scoff at. I had some sashimi here including the bluefin tuna, salmon, and fatty tuna. The quality of the sashimi is up there with some of the better sushi restaurants in the South Bay. If it's not obvious from my glowing review, I really like this place. Maybe a little addicted. Not sure when I'm going to be back, but it's probably going to be sooner rather than later.

The times I've visited, the front of house is run by a single server who is friendly and polite.

Their tempura is perfectly crisp and comes in a plate set or appetizer if you want to keep it simple. I'm a big kaki fry (fried oyster) fan and their tartar sauce is bang on delicious. I believe they're known for their Hamburg steak which is next up in my need to try list. Their hours are a bit more limited than I would like, closing around 7:45pm but I happily work my schedule around stopping by just so I can grab a bit to eat!
