    This was just some of the sushi that we ordered every single one of those was just so good.

    This was my first time eating here, and I was so shocked it was amazing. Our meal included soup salad appetizers and of course sushi. Can't wait to go back again! The service was impeccable. The food was just so great.

    We all got sick, completely overpriced. They charged us for white rice ($2.50 for a small scoop) when our server said it was included, then she said it wasn't once we questioned the bill. The sesame chicken didn't even have sesame seeds on it. We ordered two, one with extra sauce and both had nearly none. The waitress was rude and we will never be back again. Bathroom was very nice looking and place was clean. Except the smell from the fish tank in the front. Please clean it it reeks.

    Hubs is not a fan of sushi so we order from Ichiban because of their varied menu. He loves the General Tso chicken. I, however, prefer sushi. I got the dinner special with a tuna roll and assorted sushi. Fish was very fresh and melted in my mouth. Very good quality. I also got the duck spring rolls which were tasty. Definitely a yummy sushi spot and it's becoming our go-to for sushi take out.

    Went to Iciban Asian in Levittown Long Island yesterday to celebrate Father's day. For 2 hours we feasted on eel, red clam, salmon, squid, octopus, yellow tail, white tuna, stripped bass, mackerel and tamago. the place is small hole in the wall but so good!

    G. Steak Teriyaki Box ($10 lunch special)

    Looks like this is an all-you-can-eat place but they have an a la carte menu too (which I ordered via Uber Eats for pickup). Probably 3.5 stars for food, but rounding up for the value of the lunch specials (good selection of $10 bento box options that come with soup, salad, fried shumai, and California rolls). Got a few teriyaki bento box specials (chicken, salmon, and steak) with brown rice instead of white, and a two-roll combo special (picked eel avocado and crunchy spicy salmon). Chicken was delicious, salmon was ok, steak could've been better. Really liked the crispy shumai. Eel avocado roll was a little off - avocado was nice and creamy but the eel was a little hard, couldn't tell if it was supposed to be crispy skin but it was a little offputting. I didn't try the salmon roll (I don't eat raw fish), but hubby said it was fine. Wouldn't mind returning to try more of menu. ~ Ordered for pickup via Uber Eats. Nice that they still had lunch specials on a Saturday afternoon (ranging from $9-$12 but most are $10). Wide selection of $10 lunch special bento boxes, which come with soup, salad, fried shumai, and California rolls. They have the typical teriyaki dishes but also a range of other entrees (sesame chicken, Mongolian beef, etc.) as well. Ordered a few teriyaki bento box specials (chicken, salmon, steak) and a two-roll combo ($9) special. Was able to sub brown rice for the bento boxes without an upcharge, which was nice. Nice they gave you both soup and salad, but soup was slightly powdery/salty. Salad came with like two strips of unripened mango, but I guess still fancied up the salad. Chicken was surprisingly moist and tender, salmon was just a touch overcooked but still pretty good, steak still had a bit of pink but was a bit chewy and under-seasoned. The veggie mix that sat under the meat (zucchini, broccoli, and onions I think) was good. The fried shumai were very good - good flavor and cooked well. Liked that the outside skin was slightly crispy. Liked the California rolls, probably because the avocado was good. Initially was going to get the three-roll combo lunch special ($12) but the rolls you could choose from were more limited than two-roll combo ($9), which was disappointing (no eel avocado roll).. so I had to get the two-roll combo. Picked eel avocado and crispy spicy salmon. Avocado was nice and creamy but the eel was a bit hard which was strange - not sure if it was just crispy skin or just hard. Still edible but just a bit offputting. I don't eat raw fish so didn't try the crunchy spicy salmon roll, but hubby said it wasn't bad.

    Not impressed at all. The lot/strip mall is super sketchy but we thought the pizza place was decent next door. So we tried it. Will never go back. Mt Fuji is down the block, go there. The sushi was fishy smelling which in my experience isn't normal. The rolls were not tightly rolled in fact quite loose, some rolls open so you couldn't really grab them with chop sticks. The yellowfin tuna was hard, which would tell me the fish was old. Not good, all around crappy. The picture I added is to show you how the roll was not tightly rolled. Many of the pieces were like that. Thumbs down

    Online receipt was different from the actual receipt
    Kris C.

    The food was delivered very fast. The pork mai fun was very salty... but the fried rice was pretty good. Somehow the price on the receipt was different from my online receipt...

    I visited a few times and I have to say that the first time was great. It was comparable to a better version of sushi village. However, you cannot use any coupons or even claim gift card check in offer when you do all-you-can-eat option (even though there was no disclaimer on either when you dine buffet style. Fine, we let it go as we were with a big party. Then few days ago on Sunday, we went back. They took out eel from both their sushi and sashimi area. Wish that we saw it before sitting down. The tuna wasn't really fresh and I had to spit it out. For the price of 21.99, I expected more. Just wanted to let everyone know that if you go to sushi buffet for the eel, dont go to ichiban! The closest thing is ordering hand roll and special rolls which they jam with lots of rice to fill you up.

    Sushi!

The food is probably one of the worst Asian fusion places I've had and I honestly feel like all of the money goes into presentation instead of actual quality. I've been here a few times and for some reason, have been around people that ordered takeout from here a few times so I've given them a chance more times than I should have and they have never delivered. The drinks are okay, definitely another one of those "presentation heavy" style drinks for some simple cocktails but I wont fault them for that. The real problem here is the food. I've ordered a few of their noodle dishes and it's honestly impressive how they manage to avoid having any flavor in their dishes. Like, I dont even know how you can get shrimp to taste like nothing but they've definitely done it here! The chicken I've had in their dishes is without a doubt frozen and if its not flavorless, its definitely rubbery and about as appetizing as eating a Mr. Clean Magic Eraser. Aside from the fact that their portion sizes are way too small for the prices they are charging. If you want Indian food, there are plenty of better options on the same street and same thing if you want Asian food. If you want to impress someone for about 5 minutes, take them to the actual restaurant, stare at some fish, get 1 drink and then high tail it out of there cause even the fish deserve better food than what they serve here.

    ***INDO-CHINESE FLAVOR BOMB IN YOUR MOUTH*** ***SUPER…read moreFRIENDLY FAMILY-RUN RESTAURANT*** INDO-CHINESE? In the early 1800's a large number of Chinese citizens, immigrated to Calcutta, a city in the northern part of India, close to China. After becoming established, many of these immigrants started opening restaurants to support themselves. And then, because of a lack of certain ingredients, and to tailor the food to the palates of the Indian citizens, these Chinese chefs altered their recipes. And these new recipes, incorporated certain Indian spices, and a heavier use of spices and sauces - which made these new style dishes especially appealing - and created what is known today as Indo-Chinese, or Indian-style Chinese food. MASTER CHEF MIKE TENG Mike Teng, son of Hakka Chinese parents, was born and raised in India. He started cooking at 14, and eventually became a head chef preparing Indo-Chinese food in Mumbai. Then in 1984, he emigrated to the US and worked in the restaurant industry, until he became executive chef at the famous Jade Eatery & Lounge in Forrest Hills Queens. And it was here that he became notorious for his unique cuisine, and went on to receive numerous accolades. A DIFFERENT APPROACH After seven years of grueling work at Jade, Mike decided to take a break from the restaurant industry for a while. Then in 2019 he opened Teng's Restaurant, and set up operations in a way that would minimize work. As such, the restaurant would only open for dinner, between 4-11 PM, and there would be minimal table service. So let me explain how this works: You sit down at a table, and a friendly family member takes you order and helps with recommendations if necessary. And then you grab paper plates & cups, and plastic utensils from a shelf by the front counter. There's also a refrigerator here with drinks to choose from. And then the food is served to you at the table in take-out style containers. THE KEY TO ORDERING HERE There are a relatively large number of items on the menu, but most of the dishes can be broken down into a few different styles, such as Hakka Chili, Manchurian, Salt And Pepper, Orange, Szechuan, Basil, Kung Pao, and Ginger & Scallion. And the key to ordering here is to avoid choosing multiple dishes in the same style, as the meal & flavors can become one-note in nature. But if your vigilant, and pick some of the best items from each style, you will be rewarded with an Indo-Chinese flavor bomb in your mouth. FIRST TIME? GIVE THESE A SHOT So a few recommendations to try on a first visit, if you're able to enjoy spicy foods would be: - Hakka Chili Style Chicken or Beef - Salt and Pepper Style Fish Filets or Chicken - Orange Chicken or Kung Pao Chicken - Manchurian Style Fish or Chicken - General Tso's Chicken or Tofu - Ginger and Scallion Chicken - Szechuan Wontons or Momos - Orange Glazed Wings or Hakka Chili Wings - Basil Fried Rice - Hakka Noodles And here's a few vegetable recommendations: - Manchurian style Cauliflower or Salt and Pepper Cauliflower - Szechuan Potato or Potato with Black Bean Sauce - Spicy Stir Fried String Beans. - Mapo Tofu - Manchow Soup with or without meat YOU'RE PROBABLY GONNA LOVE THIS PLACE After many visits here with dozens of different people, I've noticed first-timers always react the same way when trying one of chef Teng's best dishes. Their eyes open wide, and the head starts slowly shaking side-to-side, and then I hear grunts of mmm! or wow! I mean really, it never fails to be a wonderful surprise for everyone. But don't get me wrong, not everything on the menu is a home run. For example, some of the Asian fusion dishes such as Pad Thai or Mango Chicken are just weird. So even though there are some things to overlook here, such as no lunch service, or the cafeteria style vibe, If you choose some of the chef's best dishes, for sure that flavor bomb is going to hit you right in the mouth, and you'll definitely be coming back here for more. I always do.

It took an unacceptable amount of time from when we sat down to when our waiter even arrived, and even longer to get the complimentary noodles and tea. Even when we finally placed our order, it took over 30 minutes for a couple of appetizers and 4 entrees, one of which they got wrong... and what was probably most irritating is that the staff spent more time and attention cleaning a table that just finished eating, rather than attending to diners still in the restaurant. And it was after 8pm when they close at 9, it wasn't like another party was coming in for that table. I love this place man, but ya gotta be better.

I ordered the chicken pad see ew, beef red curry, chicken satay, and basil chicken. Tried to hit every meat group. Next time gotta try the fish The Chicken Pad See Ew was a standout. Wide rice noodles with that perfect chewy texture and beautiful wok hei char. The savory-sweet soy-based sauce coated everything perfectly, and the mix of tender chicken and juicy pieces made it incredibly satisfying. The Beef Red Curry was rich and aromatic with a luscious coconut milk base. The red curry paste had great depth. There was layers of lemongrass, galangal, and spices. The beef was melt-in-your-mouth tender, and the bamboo shoots, bell peppers, and Thai basil were fresh and plentiful. I loved how it had a nice kick that built up without overpowering the dish. The Chicken Satay came out perfectly grilled with beautiful char marks. The chicken was juicy and marinated well, and the peanut sauce on the side was creamy, nutty, and addictive. Finally, the Basil Chicken delivered that classic Thai street-food flavor. Plenty of fragrant holy basil, lots of garlic, and just the right amount of chili heat. The chicken was tender with great texture, and it paired amazingly with jasmine rice. Everything arrived hot, fresh, and beautifully presented.
