Fun sushi spot. Very expansive menu. There's two menus: Chinese and Japanese which I was impressed with. There's so much to choose from. We sat at the sushi bar which gave a more casual vibe. There is a bar section with fun red lighting that gives a more nighttime going out vibe. Service was great and very attentive. We got the crab rangoons, Thai tai, red mango crunch, angry fish, and sweet mango rolls. The crab rangoons were pretty standard. Crispy, but the inside was a bit cold. The Thai tai was AMAZING. Would go back for this roll. The sweet chili sauce adds a great touch. The mango crunch roll was good, but a little sweet for me. I think there was some sauce that was sweet tasting. The salmon cuts the sweetness though and made for some good bites. The angry fish was my second favorite roll. It's a little spicy, but manageable. I loved the crispy onion on top and the tuna was fresh and yummy. The sweet mango missed the mark for me. The mango on top was super fresh, but I didn't love the sweet potato in the middle. I'm not sure it was sweet potato since it was purple, but wasn't what I was expecting. read more

Ok. So on a Friday night this place was DEAD. Quite literally most of the night we were alone with a bartender. That being said, our bartender was fabulous. Suggestions, talkative without intruding, just really great service all around. The food was great although we do wish the sashimi portions were not just 2 pieces per order. The restrooms were clean and high top chairs comfortable. I will absolutely go back for the great menu and service we received. read more

Nice spot for sushi. The restaurant was not very packed and they did not have TVs available to watch games at bar. Server was nice and frequently came to check on us. Our food was served as it was ready and we got an array of appetizers, sushi rolls and meals. read more

This place is such a vibe!! The rolls were so delicious, creative, and really different from others that I've tried. The fish gets delivered fresh daily so the quality is top tier. It also came out quickly too. Definitely stop by if you're in the area. I came across this place and immediately fell in love, it has such high quality sushi rolls! Will definitely come back and try more. It is on the pricer side but worth it! Park at the garage and get a validation sticker from the restaurant! read more

Happy to have a new sushi restaurant in Nashville that is actually good! Unfortunately it is decently pricey, but the fish is fresh and rolls are nicely executed. We had an assortment of rolls and dishes, and would probably get them all again. We started off with some appetizers: lemon calamari, karaage, and fried prawns. All were good but prawns were especially fun in a nice creamy sauce, but karaage was a little unexpected - kind of more a battered chicken nugget, rather than then crispy, craggly Japanese karaage I'm used to at ramen shops. It was still enjoyable but the weakest of the dishes. The appetizer portions were sufficient, but would have appreciated a little more. As for mains: - Angry Fish was one of our favorites with a topping of eel sauce and creamy sauce. Somewhat Americanized with the sauces but we still loved it - Flash Flood was also awesome - great amount of poke on top - Spicy Scallop was basic but had nice big chunks of scallops - Spicy Taste was actually quite hot and fun, a little too spicy for some of us but I liked. It - Red Mango Crunch was good with a generous amount of tempura crunch, mango was not overpowering - Cherry blossom tasted fresh and had a cute presentation - Tuna Tartar was good but a little too sweet for me - Has a few nigiris (hotate, amaebi, walu, ikura) which were all nice a fresh - loved that they served the amaebi (sweet shrimp) with the incredibly crispy fried shrimp heads Appreciated the good service as well! Overall nice new sushi joint, just be prepared as it is more upscale rather than affordable. *If you're looking for a deal, check out their Sake Tuesday happy hour from 4p-9p - 50% off sake bottles (cheapest is $30 after discount) and $10 classic maki (simple rolls, but highly recommend the Spicy Scallop and Spicy Lobster...the Dynamite is also fun if you like fried rolls). All pics are from Sake Tuesday - forgot to photograph our group dinner read more

It's a beautiful restaurant, I bet it's even prettier at night. We went during lunch, it was empty so we sat in the bar area. We were hungry and it was our first time there, so we wanted to try a bit of everything. I will say the fish was fresh. Certain dishes we liked more than others. We were still hungry afterwards. They didn't have much selection of beer and liquor, hopefully that changes. The food was good. Would I go back again, maybe for a light bite. But nothing stood out to where I'd want to go back anytime soon. read more

Favorite. Sushi. In Nashville! Even though I can never remember the name of it, we absolutely love this place. There are a lot of sushi places in Nashville, and we have tried the majority of them, but we keep coming back here because it is the freshest, and most creative with great service, ambience, and Experience. read more

Food was average. Appetizer less than average. Service was good, nice staff. Ambiance, well it's just a restaurant. Absolutely nothing special aboutit. The chairs were uncomfortable, but was there for less than an hour, not a big deal. Well i be back, probably not. Again nothing special. read more

Disappointed. Do not order from the Chinese menu, the food is awful. Would not recommend at all. I was so excited to try the Sichuan boiled beef and spicy chicken, but unfortunately the flavor was not there. The meal fell flat as a whole and was definitely overpriced. The meats were incredibly thin and you could tell they tried to make up for it by putting a lot of garnishes, but it was unsuccessful. Only redeeming dish was the string beans. Had a group of 6 and they sat us at a 4 person table with two chairs pulled up when there were larger tables nearby. read more

This was a good experience with top-notch service and really good Japanese food. I did go with my friend who works there (so I had the insight on what was good to order), but we literally ended up ordering half the menu. Our waiter was also super super sweet and friendly. Here's what we got: -Lemon Calamari - 9/10 - Absolutely delectable. Crispy, flavorful, delicious. The jalapeños added a perfect kick and the lemon a bright freshness, while the sauce itself was a perfect creamy touch. -Island Poki - 8.5/10 - This was like a classic seaweed salad (which I love) with fresh pieces of fish. Very fresh tasting and a light start to the meal. -Chicken Karaage - 4/10 - The chicken was grissely, tough, and flavorlessly breaded. Really did not enjoy. -Honey Wasabi Prawns - 7/10 - Not the boldest flavor, but the prawns melted in your mouth as you bit in so I did really enjoy that, and the breading wasn't overwhelming, it was just right. -Fresh Oysters - 8/10 - Super fresh and flavorful. The oysters are cold and fresh and topped with a perfect sauce. -A5 Wagyu Tataki - 11/10 - SO GOOD! You just can't not like Wagyu. It's rich and warm and smooth and melts in the mouth. The pieces are cut to the perfect thickness for a full bite. -Kanpachi Truffle - 10/10 - The fish itself was so fresh but the shining star that made this dish was the truffle oil. The rich flavor the oil gives pairs hand in hand with the freshness of the kanpachi, and it was one of my favorite appetizers. -Red Mango Crunch Roll 11/10 - This was my ABSOLUTE #1 dish of the night. Picture sweetness from the mango, fishiness from the spicy crab and a fresh salmon, creaminess and spice of the spicy mayo and eel sauce, all finished with a heaping mound of tempura crunch. As someone who LOVES sushi rolls that have lots of sauce and lots of texture contrast, this was PERFECTION. -Thai Tai Roll - 8/10 - I normally don't go for tempura rolls, but for some reason this one didn't feel too heavy, and I think the sweet chili sauce really carried a unique flavor that brought out the non-fried notes of the roll. -Bulgogi Ribeye - 7.5/10 - This was the only hot dish we got, and while it isn't traditional bulgogi, the meat was flavorful and umami, and we did really enjoy the warmth and comfort it brought to the meal. -Ichigo Box - 8.5/10 - I highly recommend this just because it forces you to try a bunch of different things, and it is also so SO gorgeous. It comes out in a beautiful compartmentalized box with a bunch of different, really interesting pieces of fish. You get uni, salmon, even baby octopi! There's also flaming salt in the middle which adds some pizazz. -Angry Fish Roll - 4/10 - So mushy. Just overwhelmingly mushy. The actual taste was good, but it needed anything else to mix up the texture. -Spicy Taste Roll - 9/10 - This roll was a lot dryer than the rest, but the minimal sauce didn't mean lack of flavor. The spicy tuna was top-notch, and this is a great roll for those who want something simpler but still good. -Eel Avocado Roll - 3/10 - Not only was this mushy, but it was boring in flavor. Obviously it isn't as interesting compared to the other rolls, but we really didn't think it was worth it. -Green Tea Ice Cream Sandwich - 7.5/10 - This is matcha ice cream in between two super thin waffles lined with dark chocolate. We did like the ice cream and the chocolate, but just wished there was more chocolate and that the waffles were crispier. They were a little soft which made the texture pretty one-dimensional. There are more mind-blowing Japanese restaurants in Nashville, but Ichigo Ichie has some really standout dishes, the food is really good, and I would definitely go again. read more

I so wish I could give 5 stars. Food was superb. Rice was pretty hard to eat without utensils though. Please send utensils with delivery orders. Especially hotels. Not all of them have silverware. Thanks for the amazing food. Great job!!! read more

We came in on Saturday before heading to broadway st. during our Nashville trip. Sushi rolls were fresh & tasty. Their signature roll selection is unique, lots of variety. Our server was great! They have a full bar that is vibey! It is was really empty on the night that we visited, so if you are looking for that kind of ambiance or hang out, you may not find it here. read more

So good! We ventured here during the recent week of intense winter weather, and despite what seemed like limited staff, our experience was terrific and food was delicious. Mickey was our server, and she was attentive and made some great recommendations both for appetizers and for rolls. The honey wasabi prawns were a unique appetizer, gently fried with a great sauce. The gyoza were homemade in the best way. The red mango crunch roll was special -- would definitely order again. The dark and moody atmosphere would make for a great date night spot or girls' night out. Some tips to know: Free parking in the Aertson garage with validation! And happy hour from 3-6. read more

I wanted to hate this place. As a Japanese food snob, I'm always suspect when a hoity toity new sushi places opens up; they're so often overpriced and not at all worth it. Ichigo Ichie was a really pleasant surprise! My friend and I went at about 8:20, not leaving much time before their 9:00 close, so I appreciated the staff being kind and accommodating! We sat at the bar, which was large and comfortable. All the offerings were backlit with red light, which created a cozy atmosphere despite the sheer size of the space. I started with the brûléed banana old fashioned, and it was delightful--sweet but not cloying. We split the agedashi tofu, the signature The Titans roll (crab, asparagus, wagyu, kizami wasabi) and the Golden Salmon chef's special (mango, shiso, avocado, crab, salmon, tobiko). I'm typically a purist, so I also got one order of salmon nigiri to round things one. The quality of the ingredients in each dish was excellent and both the Golden Salmon and The Titans were absolutely delicious. I actually told the bartender that I was angry at how good it all was because I truly expected to be let down. And the agedashi tofu, which is one of my go-tos at any Japanese restaurant, was some of the best I've had in the US. I wouldn't hesitate to order any of these dishes again, so I think the challenge will be trying something new next time I go! The cost of this meal hurt my heart a little bit but I have to grudgingly say that it was worth it. read more

Pleasant dinner experience. The presentation was fantastic and service was excellent! My favorite was the wagyu fried rice. Although a little on the pricier side (it was worth it), seems like the perfect place for a special date night. read more

We were really jazzed to try Ichigo Ichie; we are hard core sushi lovers. It's in a pretty convenient location with plenty of parking in the attached garage. They validated our ticket after dinner, so the parking was free; a major plus in Nashville. The decor is modern sushi; plenty of blonde wood and pleasantly curved fixtures. The first thing you notice is the noise level; this is easily one of the noisiest restaurants in town. No soft surfaces anywhere. We brought wine and the server gladly brought glasses for us. The star of the night was the nigiri. It was a little pricier than other places in town, but the fish was fresh and the fish to rice ratio was great. The maki were good, but not as good as the nigiri. The "specials" were kind of a bust for us; two of them (including the crab napoleon) were served in bowls that would have been good for sharing amongst the 6 of us if the food had been accompanied by more than two (seriously, two) wonton crisps for dipping into the chopped poke style fish. The hamachi ceviche was also a disappointment; slices of hamachi on a glass plate with some tomatoes and a bit of citrus dressing; it probably should have been called "hamachi sashimi with citrus". The thing that disappointed us the most was the pace of the meal. We ordered a LOT of food for the 6 of us, and I have to say it all arrived within a 5 minute window. It was definitely not conducive to an overall enjoyable dining experience. We didn't have a lot of contact with our main server; later, we found out that the resto includes a mandatory service fee in the check. I don't generally mind that; I want servers to earn a decent living, but I dislike it when the presence of a mandatory service fee actually diminishes the quality of the service. If I was in the area, and wanted some above average nigiri for a quick lunch, and didn't mind paying the premium, I might come back. For dinner? I don't think so. read more

Wow!!!! This place was so good!! Great sushi and authentic Chinese food!! This is the best place we have found for sushi in our 7 years here . My husband is the biggest food snob and we have been here from Arrington twice in 2 weeks so that is saying A LOT! Awesome service too! read more

"Ichigo Ichie" transports diners to enjoy and share a unique opportunity with just its initial visit. The menu includes traditional familiar dishes as starters followed be elevated dishes with modern flares that highlight premium cuts of fishes/flavors that can be paired with a cocktail or sake. They have an extensive selection of wine, whiskey, sake, etc. so there's definitely something to satisfy every palate..

The ambiance is beautiful and our server Charlie was so sweet and attentive. We ordered the Jail Bird, Lemon Calamari, Wagyu Fried Rice, Red Mango Crunch roll, and Green Tea cheesecake. The jail bird was good, but not my favorite I'd give it a 3.5/5. The lemon calamari was so good, but a small portion for $16 so in my opinion pretty over priced so for that a 4/5. The Wagyu fried rice was delicious definitely worth the price tag 5/5! The red mango crunch roll was one of the best rolls I've ever tried, the mango gave it a nice sweetness and the salmon was so fresh 6/5!! The green tea cheesecake was so small, and taste was okay I'd give it a 3/5 also I wish it had a crust. All in all I would recommend, it's worth a try just expect a pricier bill. read more

Everything was so good! The wagyu, uni and was buttery and melts in your mouth! If you are a sashimi lover you will enjoy this place. The best place and price for uni and wagyu nigiri around town. This would have been a 5 star if they had seared salmon nigiri and spicy scallop nigiri on the menu. I will definitely be back . Service and presentation was too notch. Try their wagyu fried rice if you aren't a raw fish lover. read more

We were so lucky to find this place open on a snow day! I expected it to be just okay but was really surprised with how tasty and fresh the food was. Food: Dumplings - we started with veggie dumplings and they were really piping hot and flavorful! A great way to start a meal. Chicken karaage - the batter was excellent but the chicken wasn't as tender as I would have preferred. I'd probably skip this if I visited again. Wagyu fried rice - really great though the portion is a bit small. Without appetizers I probably would've left hungry. The wagyu was very tender and delicious. The rice was also tasty. Hot toddy - this was really great on such a cold night. It was hot and really delicious. This place is a bit pricy but we found value in the food especially since it was one of the few places open and we were grateful to have a delicious meal. Service: We were one of three tables in the restaurant so service was excellent and attentive. Ambiance: I really adored the dishes used and presentation of the food. The place was really clean as well. read more

I am from New York and we recently moved to Knoxville. We were in Nashville on a short vacation and I was craving sushi, which has not at all been the same in Knoxville as it is in NYC......but this was excellent!!! Quality is definitely good. Fish tasted fresh. I loved the cherry bomb appetizer it was absolutely delicious. To me, it really stood out. Their wagyu was tender and melt in your mouth. Specialty rolls average.

So glad to finally have a reliable sushi place in Nashville!!! The sushi is always fresh. I love the menu! Several cooked dishes, multiple sushi roll (maki) choices, negiri (sushi) and sashimi choices. The agedashi tofu is authentic and is the best in the city! The tamago is also perfectly done. The restaurant has a great happy hour with wonderful food and drinks. I have even had it delivered and it's always been reliable! Fully recommend eating at the restaurant if you can. It's a great setting with a full length bar. Parking is also available on site. It's open 7 days a week. Great for friends, family or work lunch/dinners. Everyone in have taken has loved it. Great place to educate sushi novices! Enjoy!!! read more

I stopped by with my partner one evening for dinner. We were in the mood for sushi and wanted to try something different vs the other options in the area. I believe the place is pretty new but it didn't disappoint. When we walked in, the staff were friendly and kindly escorted us to our table. It took us a little while to decide what we wanted but they were patient. The sushi was good. My only call out was that the rice was a little softer than what I usually expect in sushi. I think it may have been slightly over cooked. We had gotten this one roll I believe called the red dragon. The main star of that roll is the lobster. The presentation was very nice and they used all the pieces of the lobster in the dish. The drinks were also well made. It took a little while to come but you could tell there was a lot of attention to details. Overall a solid spot if you're looking for sushi in midtown read more

The sake flight was really nice. The food was average sushi to me, I eat a LOT of sushi around the world and this just blended in, nothing I ate was very memorable. The sashimi plate was probably the most disappointing, not what I would have chosen to present as sashimi choices and some pieces were inedible. I really don't like posting anything negative but with the fine dining sushi game already weak in Nashville, I would have wanted to know and see some photos prior to booking. Instagram really had me fooled. read more
