This is one of our favorite date night places to eat. Hans roll and Super Crunch rolls are delicious!

Stopped by Ichiban Sushi on Granite Dr in Rocklin for a quick dinner. It's in a shopping center, clean enough inside, and service was friendly but nothing over-the-top. We got a couple of specialty rolls (like the Rocklin Roll and a spicy tuna), some nigiri, and miso soup. The fish was fresh enough--no major complaints on quality--but the rolls were kinda average: rice a bit loose in spots, not super flavorful or creative compared to better places nearby. Nigiri was fine, portions decent, but nothing that made me think "wow, gotta come back." Solid but forgettable--plenty of other sushi options around that edge it out. read more

It felt like I had not had sushi in over a year, so I decided to try Ichiban since it was close by and highly rated on Yelp. From the outside, all the windows were blacked out, which was unusual because you cannot see inside. Once we walked in, the layout was typical for a sushi spot with a bar and a few tables. We were seated quickly and given menus to look over. There were plenty of options, although I did notice they did not have any rolls with eel, which is something I usually enjoy. We ordered two rolls and they came out quickly. The flavor was great, the portions were decent, and everything tasted fresh, though I did feel the prices could have been a bit lower. Overall, Ichiban is a solid choice if you are craving sushi. read more

I had lunch a week ago. Tempura veg was good. Ramen was tasty. Vegetable roll was good.

My husband ordered a bento box with chicken teriyaki, chicken katsu, and California rolls.  The California rolls were good.  However, he said the teriyaki and katsu were just okay and definitely not worth $25.95. read more

I am a fan! We ordered the cherry blossom roll, the orange blossom roll, and the samurai. All tasted amazing and were presented beautifully. I couldn't have picked a better restaurant to have my first real postpartum meal! The orange blossom roll was so simple yet so flavorful! We loved the sauce that was drizzled on it and the samurai was a fun choice we had never had before with a delicious kick from the fresh jalapeños. If you like spicy, if highly recommend this! And the cherry blossom roll is our go-to and the reason we picked this restaurant to begin with and it didn't disappoint! read more

Upon entering during lunch hour, the place was full of customers but I thought the place smelled off which could be just me since my wife did not notice. I ordered a bento box with Chicken Katsu and California rolls. The chicken was dry and a bit chewy and the rolls were just average. The salad and miso soup were good. My wife ordered the Dragon roll and I tried one and it was good but not spectacular. The waitress did a fine job with the service, so no complaints there. We were seated next to a person with bad body odor and it made my experience worse but that's just bad luck. It did make me want to leave fast. I doubt I will return to Ichiban which means number one. Their sushi might be very good but I will never know. read more

I'm updating to 5 stars even though I haven't been back mostly due to responsible spending. But I always think of the sesame chicken here when I want sesame chicken! read more

We visited Ichiban Sushi on July 16th 2025 and placed an order to go. The food was ready within 20 minutes which is regular time. Lobby was clean and customer service was fine. Only when we arrived home I found how much condiment they put in the bag for our order where at least 5 positions required soy sauce/wasabi/ginger. When the waitress was handing the bad to me I literally asked if they put soy sauce and ginger, well she said yes and we went home happy and excited to try this food. Thank ME that my last grocery shopping included soy sauce and I had some pickled ginger at home. The last I would wanted to do is going to the store and having my sushi get older. Next thing which just ruined everything, completely everything - is "beef yakisoba". It was just impossible to eat, the meat was so bad, not fresh at all and obviously the person who tried to eat it got food poisoning! The whole container went to the trash. The squid in "IKA" was rubbery like a shoe sole. Went in the trash as well. But at least I did not get a food poisoning. I insist manager or owner to contact me regarding all the issues we had with such experience. In conclusion I just wanna say that the only items I recommend are 49ers and orange blossom. Classic but delicious and fresh read more

I really want to eat at this place, but the service has gone downhill. It is too bad because it is my neighborhood sushi spot and I always want to support. I've always ordered here and when you get food to go, it's hard to check the product until you get home. So one time, when I got home, my order was incorrect. Missing a part of the main meal. Which is a big bummer! We immediately called and explained. I gave my name and they said the next time we order we will get a free rainbow roll. Perfect. I am pretty easy going as long as you commit to service. Well, good food matters too! So then, the next time I ordered over the phone, I gave my name and explained the situation and asked for my extra rainbow roll. I was put on hold to speak to the manager. And the manager said, I needed to come in and show my face. So giving my name and my word was not sufficient. Which I thought was strange because if you are taking names, mine would have never been heard before! No reason to be suspicious! So I cancelled my plans and did not order. Fast-forward to today, i wanted to give them another chance. This time I showed up and wanted to collect on the rainbow roll. Explained the situation and I felt the girl already knew my story. Either mistakes happen often or she remembers my phone call from months ago! Anyway, I was told I could not get the rainbow roll because the manager was not there to approve it. Lol Sadly, on principle, I will never come back. If a rainbow roll is going to decide how you treat your customers then so be it. It shouldn't make or break the bank to give decent customer service. Especially when an order was incorrectly packaged. Again, it was not a small piece that was missing but a large piece that was missing. Like my daughter's main meal. Anyway, good luck! Heading across the street to give them my business! read more

Great tasting sushi! loved my roll. I got very full eating here and only had to order 1 roll. Never had that happen before. Quality is great. Miso tasted good, not too salty. The interior is very small. Service is very kind and works hard. read more

I ate at this sushi place last night and it's still good as I remembered. The sushi was fresh and tasty. The edamame was really good too. Service was great--fast and nice. We'll definitely be back. read more

Food is always fresh, and service is always amazing here!! Definitely a cute little date, or catchup spot. Seating can be limited but all in all this is an amazing local spot. I suggest the spicy tuna roll, and the yellow fin! read more

We found this gem a few months ago. Small place in a shopping center, but the food and service are top notch. Best Japanese food in the area. We've eaten there several times and never been disappointed. Highly recommend this place. read more

We went here twice so far and found them to be pretty good. The service was great the last time we came as well. The Lion King roll was good. The Bento boxes are enjoyable. The place was clean and had a good overall smell, which is a big thing for me. The bathrooms were nice. The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars was because the first time we came about a year ago the service was different. This most recent time was much better though. I would certainly recommend them. read more

We came here on both a recommendation and a whim. Our usual spot has been closed temporarily and our secondary (Bonsai) served us rotten cucumber. Perfect time to try something new! This place is located in a little strip mall on the right-hand side of the Safeway, near Bagel Street Café and Papa Murphy's. It is small, with dim lighting, but very clean and outstanding service. The fish and other ingredients were fresh and tasty. The portions are acceptable for the prices. We ordered three rolls and shared them between the two of us. I really wanted to try the sashimi, but found it was a bit pricier than our other staples. That's OK, everything else made up for that. We'll definitely be back! read more

A tiny unassuming restaurant. The interior is a bit dark. The few times that I dined in, I only saw the same lone server. She was great though... friendly, efficient, and attentive. Food is good. We normally go for the bento box. My fave here is the sesame chicken. It is delicious! read more

By far the best sushi in the area, great service and the food is consistently delicious.

SOOOOOOoooooooo GOOD! Always! I sometimes don't know what's better - the food or the service. We have been eating here consistently since 2019. The food is ALWAYS fast, fresh, hot, consistently good, and perfectly proportioned and appropriately priced. Ernee (short for Ernestine) is magic!!! I don't know how she remembers every order we place without writing anything down, but she does. Every - single - time! And although we only eat here about once a month, she always greets us with the WARMEST of hellos and a "do you want your usual?" I feel like we are eating in her home more than we are a public establishment. There isn't anything on this menu we haven't tried now. The spicy edamame is really special - do not miss out on this! I always forget to take pictures because the food is so good, it's not until halfway through the meal (and clearly not Yelp picture worthy). This charming sushi restaurant may be small, but don't let that detour you if there isn't an immediate place to sit. Their service is so fast and so good, your wait won't be long - and trust me, it's worth it! Thank you Ichiban for being OUR sushi place! read more

I was at CVS I was over 100° and I had to wait 20 minutes for dolphin so I seen the sushi bar and I figured I'd go and give it a try it was empty. But the services quick and the sushi was quite fresh was a really nice clean place and the prices are pretty reasonable. The service is very quick but the place is empty but seems like a nice service, read more

We're always greeted and sat almost right away upon entering the restaurant. It's small but a decent space. It's very clean and nice inside. Ernee is usually our server and she's the best!! She's always positive, upbeat, and really makes an effort to get to know you and what you like/don't like and will make recommendations. We get our food pretty fast every time we visit which is great, especially with hungry children. Every dish I've had here is delicious. Their spicy edamame is the best edamame appetizer I've ever had (and I've had a few different kinds). read more

I usually order the spicy tuna roll for take out and each time it's been fresh, delicious and quick. The ambience inside is very intimate and clean. The service is good each time. I highly recommend this sushi restaurant. read more

Can I start off by saying, thank you to my fellow neighbors on the Nextdoor app for recommending this place or else I would NEVER have discovered this gem!! I came in on a Wednesday night around 7pm with my fiancé. Just by walking in I could tell there are a lot of regulars here by the interactions the servers had with their guests. I was like ok ok I'm feeling the vibe in here, super cozy and cute. Like they even give you complimentary miso soup!!! We were loving the hospitality!! Our server Oki (I hope I spelled his name right!), was literally amazing! I haven't had that great of service in a while. This guy needs a raise & he doesn't even know it!! We had so many questions because we were determined to figure out which rolls we wanted and he helped us along our journey with a smile on his face!! We ended up getting the volcano, lucky 7, lion king. Guys..... the volcano roll is a AMAZING if you like some spice!! Lucky 7 definitely complimented it since it was more on the sweeter side & the lion king tasted super fresh as well! Overall this place is a win 10/10 I will be back and can't wait to tell everyone about this place! I feel like this place reminded me a lot of arigatos (the way they sauce up their rolls) but 10000% better. You will not regret coming here and must give it a gooooo!! :) read more

I ordered for to go, first time trying the sushi in this store. At first I was hesitant to order from here when I looked at the health inspection report with so many food safety violations, and scored below 80% but I think people make a mistake and need a chance to be better. So I give it a try. So far is good, they don't have to go soy sauce packet for the sushi. It's in tiny containers and the the Wasabi and ginger is so little. Not a big deal since people probably trying to save cost. The taste is good but could be better, sushi is cold and the rice for my bento is not hot either. Portion wise is good amount for the price we paid for. May be will be back and bring my friends and family here since they all sushi lovers. Hopefully the food can taste hot. read more

Solid 3 Star location for sushi. Menus given to us were really dirty and sticky. Went to grab a new one and majority of the menus were like that. Edamame starter= Great BBQ Albacore= Great Presentation of rolls= Good Small plates given for sharing = No Pricing: Fair Note: Sushi rolls were unbalanced and did not taste fresh. Lion King roll was bland and fishy. Also sitting at the bar is no different than sitting at a table. Sushi chef doesn't acknowledge anyone. Not bad, but there are much better sushi options in close proximity. read more

I ordered a light lunch from Ichiban Sushi today. First time I have tried their food. My meal consisted of Hamachi, Maguro and Miso Soup. All were good. The Hamachi was extremely fresh and flavorful. My least favorite was the Miso, a little light on taste (in my opinion). Prices were reasonable and I will try Ichiban Sushi again in the future. I am anxious explore other menu options. read more

The food here is top notch, best sushi place we've found in the area. I moved from Hawai'i a number of years ago where great sushi can be found everywhere and struggled to find a place here in the area that was to the same level, until I came here. I highly recommend getting the Ninja Roll with spicy sauce added onto it. It's so good. I've tried a good chunk of their menu and their rolls are always so good. The servers are very friendly and if you go frequently they remember you and are very kind. Also the restaurant looks very nice on the inside. It's a bit smaller and intimate, but I HIGHLY recommend trying it out. I've gone to all the other sushi places in the area that everyone recommends and claims is the "best", but this is far and away better than all those other places. 10/10 would recommend to any sushi lovers! read more

Love this place. The 2-piece Bento box is great (and big!) Service is friendly and restaurant is cozy.

This place use to be great. Their customer service is horrible now. We ordered via telephone and they gave us the wrong items. We asked them to go over when we picked it up. They said it was all there. When we got home, the order was incorrect. We ordered 2 beef yakisoba dishes. They gave us a chicken yakisoba. We called to see if we could get a refund. They asked us to go back to restaurant to rerun transaction again. We're not going to drive 20 minutes (40 mins round trip) back to Rocklin to fix a transaction they can fix over the phone. Horrible customer service. It's too bad, they blame their mistakes on the customer. Never going to go back. Good luck with this place. read more

We love Ichiban. We come here almost every Friday night. The service is outstanding and the sushi is fresh. The atmosphere has great laid back vibes. Our favorite rolls are the Super California and the Samurai. Yummm. We are going there for dinner to night. Don't forget to ask them for a side or garlic sauce. read more

Great Japanese food at a reasonable price. We had the Terriyak chicken and California roll sushi. The service was prompt, and the ingredients were fresh. I highly recommend their happy hour special. They do get busy, so come early for dinner or wait until close to closing time to order out. read more

Very good, service was great. I went there on a dinner date with my mother. I got the hurricane and samurai roll, both were great. Got the stuffed jalapeños as an appetizer and they were amazing. My mother got the bento box and loved everything in it. Service was on point and friendly. The place was a little dark which would of been great if I was on a date with my girlfriend and the not noisy like a lot of other restaurants which is a plus when going out with my 80 year old mother. Highly recommend and enjoy. read more

I go frequently for lunch. Super fast service. Great fish. The teriyaki steak is excellent as well.

Our first time in Rocklin looking for a sushi restaurant. This was literally 2 mins from our room. Small restaurant but friendly crowd. Super nice customers too and reason why I will keep to myself :-) Food is great, the rolls we ordered was just on point. We were pleasantly happy and surprised of the quality and freshness of the sashimi. Definitely come back next time we are in town. read more
