    Highlight is the generous portions and reasonably priced. Otherwise, you can likely get better Japanese elsewhere? Miso soup was only warm, coming in closer to closing you are truly here's in like cattle and you will get your check when you get your entree, meanwhile there is the restaurants entire family dining in the large middle tables while they are also getting up to serve you. It'll do if you're hungry but there's better out there.

    This is kind of a you get what you pay for situation. The food is VERY reasonably price, but unfortunately my meal wasn't that good. I got a dinner combination with salted saba (aka mackerel) and tempura for $11.95. The accompanying miso soup lacked a good "dashi" based and was kind of watered down. The salted saba was relatively bland and over cooked. I liked the salad dressing, but unfortunately most of the pieces of lettuce were pretty crappy. California roll was pretty standard, no complaints here. The best part of the meal was the tempura, so if I were to ever come back I would just get a side of tempura.

    Great easy simple sushi! We get take out here all the time super nice people great food and a great price. Very fresh food. Bento Box is perfect for lunch with a cheap lunch special. Unagi Nageri is our favorite. Workers are so friendly and so easy for pick up.

    bento, udon

    Nice and cozy setting with appealing food. The bento box was worth the price considering how many items were included. Udon tasted nothing special, but still good!

    Sushi is delicious This is the best restaurant in San Bruno and Millbrae, by far. Very cool tables. THE GREATEST CUSTOMER SERVICE. Thank you Jaden for being so friendly and hospitable. I do not know why Ichiban has a poor Yelp Review. Go here. Eat here. Highly recommend. My daughter gives this restaurant 100 's!

    Fresh oysters and bento box for lunch.

    Splurge during lunch and I absolutely enjoyed these fresh oysters and bento box. Price is VERY REASONABLE-and just yummy! This will be my staple when I crave and want to eat a full meal. Service was ok, I was the only customer. There were at least 3 employees and one's back facing me. I needed to catch their attention to get my tea refilled. They're all nice though. Food was delicious! Can't go wrong with their bento box. Noticed Uber eats picking up orders almost every 3 minutes. Ambiance, I really can't tell since I ate here during lunch. Nothing exciting. I'll try to get dinner here one of these days to see. Over all, 5 stars. Great food, price' just right and service - can't complain. I'll be back!

    This sushi restaurant is not worth the $124.00 tab. They had no Uni my favorite, or tuna or salmon belly. The amaebi heads were served with a tonkatsu sauce, we also order a hamachi kama served with their version of a Ponzi sauce that was overly sweet not even a hint of citrus. We also had 6 fresh oysters with the same Ponzi sauce and all was truly not that tasty. Not wort the $$$.

We've…read moretraveled quite a bit and tried sushi in many different cities, including around the Los Angeles area where we live and have our favorite spots. So when we visit a sushi restaurant, we tend to evaluate everything as a whole -- price, quality, service, and of course the flavors. For dinner we ordered the Mango Tuna Roll (which was our first time trying a mango-style sushi roll), the 8-piece Omakase Nigiri, a Double Toro Roll, two pieces of Otoro, and a hot sake. With a 20% tip included, the total for the two of us came to $163.50, which honestly falls within the average range of what we usually spend for a sushi dinner like this. Normally we might pay around $120-$130 depending on the place, sometimes a little more if we add an extra item or two. The portion sizes were pretty standard. Not unusually large, but not small either -- similar to what we've experienced at many other sushi restaurants. Where this place really stood out was the depth of flavor. The quality and balance of the ingredients were excellent. At one point I actually caught myself closing my eyes just to focus on the taste, which is something I almost never do. The preparation felt very refined and the flavors were elevated, rich, and memorable. I would describe it as delicate portions with very elevated flavors. Because of that, I'm giving this place 5 out of 5 stars. This is the kind of restaurant that works perfectly for a nice dinner with your partner. It's not necessarily a place where you go wild ordering everything on the menu like at a taco spot. Instead, it's better to be thoughtful with what you choose and enjoy a few well-crafted dishes. You can easily have a special, enjoyable dinner here without going overboard. Definitely worth visiting if you're in the area and want a quality sushi experience with refined flavors. The only thing I felt was missing was a small welcome miso soup. In some sushi restaurants we've visited, they serve a tiny cup of miso with a couple pieces of tofu as a warm welcome. It's a very small gesture, but it creates a nice first impression and adds a sense of hospitality to the experience. Considering the quality and pricing of the menu here, a simple welcome miso soup would fit perfectly with the overall dining experience.

I threw a Lion King roll--roar and an agedashi tofu appetizer as well. Great little sushi place that has just enough innovation in the rolls to keep things interesting. The staff is made up of Cantonese Chinese speakers, so they instantly warmed up to me as one of their own. The place is simple with a dark, romantic ambiance to give locals a date night place with reliable delivery. I can't wait to go back to Bashamichi for another round of sushi.

Unfortunately, even though there weren't that many people - the service still feels uncomfortable because it's like the staff kinda ignores you because they're busy but then they also kinda check up on you and you're just left wondering. (this happens when trying to order and also when trying to pay ) And really unfortunately, the food wasn't as good by any standard as it was in the past. I'm not sure if it was a fluke, but the bento box (katsu, chicken katsu, and especially the chicken teriyaki) didn't hit that hard :( The Agedashi dōfu was definitely not great but tried it bc it's one of my favorites. We also got the Bashamichi special roll and the double Hamachi roll - which were alright too. (The wasabi here is on the weak side, but this doesn't affect the rating.) Overall, pretty "just okay" experience and sad that it wasn't as good as it was before :(

The menu is a bit cluttered and disorganized, with some items hidden in folders with ambiguous name. This could be sorted if they had someone tech savvy to fix it. Something they can improve is wiping down the tablets between lunch and dinner. It was really grimey. The servings are not very large and the price reflects that. What's good is there is a unique variety of food not often seen at other Japanese restaurants, like the Okonomiyaki. We ordered a couple of items and they came out in waves. The wait wasn't long but it wasn't fast. The server is attentive despite relying on the tablet for orders and there are special menu deals for certain times. All in all, I would come here if you want a no frills, low interaction eating out experience.
