We got a few other rolls as well as salmon sashimi (cheaper than some other places I'd looked at beforehand). They were all very tasty. Every dish had a different and pretty presentation; the sashimi had gold flakes on it! We also got to sample some dessert, a mango cake. We have definitely found our new sushi place. Notes on the venue: lots of parking; basement bathrooms (so stairs are involved); not a fancy spot but still a pleasant atmosphere.

I like to start with edamame or maybe the fried crab and then move on to dynamite roll or eel. Yum! We are usually stuffed when we leave, often rolling out rather than walking! As with some smaller restaurants, they usually have one waitress on and when it gets busy, she gets busy. Waitresses are very attentive with drinks, miso soup, and appetizers so be patient if there is a crowd.

We were looking for a place for sushi around pond mills and decided to give Ichiban Sushi House a…read moreshot. My motto is "never try, never know." So in we went! Decor was alright, typical of any sushi restaurant. We were seated in the booth, which there was 3 and another room for private guests I believe. We decided to keep it simple and ordered a medium sized sushi boat and 4 pieces of uni (sea urchin). We should have known from the lack of customers on a Saturday night that this was not going to be the best sushi... The uni was pretty bad to say the least, it was a gooey texture which happens when it looses its freshness, the taste was unpleasant as well. It was like the smell of a harbour in our mouths. Moving on to the sushi and maki. The sushi was pretty small, about sushi buffet style sizes. The fish didn't taste fresh, the tuna belly especially. When you get a fishy ocean taste, that's when you can tell it is not fresh. I used to work in a sushi restaurant myself so I knew what to expect of fresh and old fish. The maki was small and nothing special. On a positive note the staff were honestly kind and attentive, its just a shame the food didn't represent their quality of service.

I love their honey fries! they're so crispy and slightly sweet and come with the perfect dipping sauce. I think it's a unique dish which is definitely worth trying out! We got carbonara and curry sauces to go with our Katsu. The curry sauce has a really robust flavour profile and is full of all these incredible warm spices, I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend getting this sauce. The carbonara sauce was nice as well and really creamy, I just wish it was a TAD bit spicier. I'm not sure how but Katsuya always has the flakiest crispiest Katsu and it is so appreciated. Portion sizes are very generous so you can easily split with friends, or indulge yourself depending on hunger levels. Overall a really positive experience, I look forward to coming back many more times!

One thing I didn't realize before coming here was that Katsuya sells Japanese FUSION tonkatsu. I…read moreassumed it was a just a Japanese Tonkatsu place until we ate here and saw the sign on the outside. My expectations may have been thrown off a little since I didn't realize what Katsuya trying to do. That said, the food was good, but nothing I'd shout on top of the hills for. The food was still decent, so had to still give it four stars. As much as I am not a fan of fusion restaurants, my favorite was the carbonara katsu. It was like dipping your katsu into an Italian seafood alfredo sauce, with a decent amount of seafood and bacon in it. The pair of this fusion was delightful and I enjoyed eating this one the most. The katsu itself had a nice light, crispy, airy batter, and the pork (you can choose your type of meat) was tender. It was light, yet deep fried, so super oily and felt like a heavy meal. My second favorite was the curry katsu. A good curry sauce with your katsu, typical to what I've gotten at other Japanese restaurants, and exactly what I would expect. It had a slight spice to it. The original katsu I wasn't too much of a fan of. The sauce was a little too buttery for me. Buttery and sweet. I'd come back for the carbonara katsu again for a dip into this italian/japanese fusion.

My partner and I decided to celebrate the end of our quarantine period by ordering some take-out from Roll Roll. The call was quick and easy and pick up was extremely sanitary. I waited outside for the patrons before me to complete their order, and the hostess took time to sanitize everything before I entered. I didn't need to touch anything besides the platter, and the sanitized debit machine. Now...the sushi...my goodness!! We ordered the small combo platter. While a bit more expensive than other places, I absolutely LOVE their spin on sushi. I believe they included: -The Bruce Roll which was crab meat,cucumber inside torched salmon & jalapeno on top (Super tasty!) -Roll Roll Roll - Shrimp Tempura, cucumber, avocado inside, spicy crabmeat on top (This was my favourite!) -California roll and some salmon sushi and a few bites of sashimi Overall, the platter was presented beautifully with some cute accents of dried fruit and greens and it was filling for the 2 of us. If you are looking for a great local spot for some take-out during your social isolation, roll on into ROLL ROLL!
