Fantastic spot! My wife and I have been coming here to pick up lunch every so often. The food is always fresh and packed with flavor. TONS of options from poke to veggies to spam musubi! Portions are large as well - you definitely get your money's worth. Will be back soon! read more

Such a wondrous new find!! :D We came here for dinner recently after being enticed from some delicious-lookin' photos online. It was hard to decide on what to get but I eventually settled on a large poke bowl because it's been a while. I was def not disappointed. The portions are generous and the prices are very fair. The food is delicious, service is quick/friendly, and the ingredients are fresh (they don't skimp on em' either!)! They're also really close to me, so this is a win on every level possible. Will be coming here often to try out a bunch of other menu items! P.S. Much love to them also for opening at 10am on the daily and offering boba too (ther milk teas come with boba and lychee jelly!)! What more could I ask for?! read more

I ended up in this plaza on accident and decided to give this place a try for the burrito sushi. The place was clean and plenty of tables. The four stars is only because I wanted to ask a question and tried to wait but noone was around. They only came out once the order was placed on the kiosk. As for the food I ended up getting tempura and a poke burrito. The ingredients were all fresh so the textures and the flavors together were perfect. The tempura was also fried really well and the batter isn't super thick which I love. A hidden gem I would go back to. read more

The place offers a pleasant and easy ordering experience with a standard, simple design that keeps the focus on the food. The dishes are fresh and flavorful, especially the large poke bowl made to order with the option to add plenty of extras, which makes it both satisfying and customizable. Everything tastes clean and well-prepped. The place is ran by Cinco man so not much to say about the service, however, everything was on time and tasty. One thing to note: they don't serve alcohol, so plan accordingly. Overall, a solid spot for a fresh sushi or poke fix. read more

This place is delicious!! I could not have been more satisfied. I got the Burrlto with salmon and it's like a giant handroll, so filling and so yummy . You get to create it yourself with whatever protein you want, with rice and whatever other fillings you want. They also have a create your own roll, which I did. I made my own hamachi(yellowtail) roll and the chef did it just right, as if he was reading my mind. It's cute little shop, with sitting inside and out. And they have two booths! I love booths. They have definitely found a new regular in me. A hidden gem in Martinez that begs to be discovered by the masses. read more

Ichiko Sushi - Small burrlto and a create-your-own hamachi roll - Japanese Near Me - Martinez, California

This place has it all. Sushi, poke, onigiri! All are pretty good! The prices and portions here are really good too. Service was as good as a self kiosk can be. There was only one visible worker but we came at 6pm on a wednesday. But food took about 10min to come out. There seems to be a lot of online orders however because the guy was busy. We dined in but had to ask for stuff like extra plate and napkins and water. For ambiance, the restaurant is in a strip mall and when you walk in it has a very chipotle/poke setup with a kiosk to order. Definitely more of a take out kinda place. Would definitely order takeout if Im in the area again! read more

The husband and I placed an order for takeout and he went to pick up our order. Ichiko Sushi is more of a grab and go/take out spot as seating is very limited. They have a poke bar where you can create your own poke bowl (would need to try at some point!), and a vast menu considering the size of the place. Other than poke bowls, they do some bento boxes, many types of rolls / sushi, and spam musubi, and something they all origiri (not the triangle shaped rice balls with filling). I tried a couple rolls. They had so many to choose from, so I solely went based on the names because I didn't have time to read through everything. What I tried were - Black Jack Roll - Salmon, avocado, cilantro inside, yellowtail, jalapeño, black tobiko, special sauce, and spicy mayo on the outside. Doesn't quite take me back to the black jack table, but I love the name and most things in this roll. What I didn't appreciate was the cilantro inside. Bleh! LOL. Most got picked out, and the rest of the roll was amazing. Packaged very nicely too. Love the huge pieces of salmon inside as well. Straight Flush Roll - Tempura oyster, crab meat, cilantro inside, streamed shrimp, avocado, unagi sauce, tobiko on the outside. It's been years since I've gotten a straight flush in poker... video poker, but this was a fun roll! I wouldn't have gotten it based on the description alone, but I was pleasantly surprised. The fried oysters inside didnt have much flavor, but the roll was good in a texture standpoint. More cilantro? That went into the nope pile. Bento box with chicken Katsu and spicy chicken - comes with the usual bento boxes stuff, such as salad and soup, rice, etc. The chicken Katsu was done pretty well in comparison to our usual takeout spots. The spicy chicken wasn't that great. Lacked flavor in comparison. Avocado onigiri - seaweed, rice, avocado, spam, egg. This was decent. Not the typical origiri, but the ingredients was a good mix. Most of the flavor came from the spam, and texture came from the avocado. Was OK, wouldn't get again though. Chicken Katsu origiri - somehow this was a miss for me. It lacked flavor and most were plain tasting. Maybe something was missing? Overall, I'd return to try some more rolls and perhaps try a poke bowl. People here were nice and helpful. Love the convenience of online ordering and going there to pick up. Definitely not one of those nice sit down spots, but solid spot to bring some great food home. read more

I'm reviewing Ichiko based on my two go-to items: the poke bowl and sushi. Let me start by saying this feels like I'm giving away one of my favorite hidden gems in the area. Ichiko's poke bowls are simply outstanding--perfect portion sizes, great prices, and incredible flavor. The fish is consistently fresh, and the veggie selection is unmatched. No extra charge for avocado and no restrictions on how many veggies you can choose, which is a huge plus for me. **Poke Overall Rating**: 8.1/10 Hands down, this is my top spot for poke in the area. Over the past six months, I've also tried several sushi rolls here: - **Black Jack Roll**: 7.8/10 - **Honey Bunny Roll**: 7.6/10 - **Crystal Roll**: 7.6/10 - **Pink Lady Roll**: 7.2/10 - **Spicy Girl Roll**: 7.4/10 - **Alhambra Roll**: 7.1/10 - **OMG Roll**: 7.3/10 When it comes to sushi, Ichiko is one of my top two spots. It's a standout in Contra Costa County and definitely one of the better options around. The convenience of online ordering makes it even better. **Sushi Overall Rating**: 7.3/10 While I enjoy the sushi here, it's the poke bowl that makes Ichiko a must-visit. read more

Martinez is really lucky to have this place. We have had so many overrated crappy places in this town. Ichiko is nothing pretentious, it's Japanese quick food that's tasty. I haven't had a better onigiri than here (like rice sandwiches) that have crisp seaweed and great fillings. Yum. read more

I don't get the 4 and 5 star ratings...? Came in Saturday 2 pm. Customer service was bad. No greeting and interaction from the male behind register. We felt so invisible during our visit. We even had to ask for boxes. He wasn't attentive. No one said goodbye to us or thanked us for coming in. The chef came out and collected trays and he made eye contact and smiled. Got the bento box: Miso soup is watered down, no flavor, no salt. Salmon teriyaki was microwaved: tough and dry. Spam musubi didn't have correct spam and rice ratio. 80% rice, 20% spam. It wasn't wrapped in nuri, just a strip to keep it together. CA roll was ok and best part was the salad leaves. We would give them another try, but after the lack of customer service, we'll spend money elsewhere. read more

I have brought about 5 people here to try this place because I am constantly raving about it! Everytime I come here they are so generous and make the sushi with love-- you can taste it! Everything just melts in your mouth! I don't usually get shrimp tempura in my rolls because they're not done right. But here?! Here I WILL get the shrimp tempura and it just makes me so happy lol. Their shrimp isn't skimpy, just like everything else. Quality is always great and good size too! Their special sauce is wonderful as well! read more

So glad to have found this place! My friend and I were craving sushi and this happened to be in the area so we checked it out. The inside is clean and well kept with a good amount of seating options. Ordering can be done via employee or ordering kiosk. The menu offers a variety of options, from sushi rolls to onigiri to poke to boba drinks. You're never short of choices! I ordered the crystal roll, unagi onigiri, and salmon onigiri. The crystal roll was delicious--very saucy and a nice combo of flavors. The onigiris were also very good--a cool twist from the conventional onigiri. I got a crab one and salmon mayo one. Generous sizes, although it can get a little messy. Would come back to try their other stuff! read more

Super yummy and good quality/ portions for the price! they're still new so i give 5 stars, however i will say the food came out in a weird ish order, my boyfriend and i used the kiosk and he got his food before me by a while, (not a big deal just something to be aware of if ordering at the kiosk.) we sat outside and an employee brought our food out to us which was very nice! the interior is clean and bright the food: i did have to send back my miso soup because it came out cold, but i got a new one no problem. It was a little light on flavor, but good. we ordered several pieces (20) of nigiri , 3 rolls, spam musubi, and the gyoza. The gyoza was delicious, wish they were a little warmer or crispier but still very good. The misubi was fine. The nigiri was fresh and tasty, not mind blowing but still very happy with it. The baja roll was the star of the show for us, spicy, delicious, lots of cilantro and good flavors. Definitely will be back! read more

Probably some of the best takeout poke I've ever ordered. I was using a work related Uber Eats voucher and decided to give Ichiko a try as it was close to where I was having lunch. I ordered the small poke bowl, with salmon and yellow tail over a bed of spring mix salad and white rice, along with miso, crunchy garlic and house sauce, with seaweed salad, cucumber, mango, avocado and sushi ginger. The food arrived on time, and the combination I had randomly put together worked very well. The sushi and other fixings were fresh and flavorful, and I ate every last morsel. Will be back for sure. read more

The new sushi spot in town -- we had to give it a try. First impression: the presentation is top-notch. Excellent quality and just the cutest little roll-packages I've ever seen. Their boxes put other sushi places to shame, for most the takeout is just a roll sadly tossed into a clear plastic box... but not here. Fish was great, flavors on the rolls were excellent and the fish portions are very generous. They even threw in a bonus hand-roll! I'll be coming back here for sure, this is a great addition to Martinez. I was skeptical that their sushi would be good given that this really looks more like a poke-bar place, but I was totally wrong! Now I have to try their poke... read more

Ichiko Sushi is located in the shopping center where Safeway is, but towards the other half of the area. It's mainly a takeout place, as the seating inside isn't really a whole lot, and they have a table or two just outside of the building. They're a sushi place, but also doubles as a poke place too, as many of these takeout sushi places will have to offer too. Also, they have the fancy onigiri stuff here too, for those who are interested. If you find yourself at Sushi Time, no, this is not the same place, even though they are literally across the street from each other. The service here was a bit disorientated when I was here. The people at the counter didn't really know what they were doing, they also didn't really know how to split a bill, and then told me they accidentally charged me double, and then after a good 3-4 minutes tapping about on the pos screen, they said nvm. They were nice, but didn't feel like they were familiar enough with the system yet. Given this was few weeks back, so perhaps, things have gotten better since. So the three menu, between the poke, the onigiri, and the sushi, there's decent variety for each one of them. The poke is fairly more straight forward since it's a build your own kind of thing, but good selection of onigiri, and great selection of sushi rolls. The pricing here is about the same price as Sushi Time across the street, so not that expensive, however, for a takeout place, I do feel this makes it feel a bit more expensive comparatively due to quality differences from the rolls themselves which I'll talk about in a bit. The poke bowl is priced alright, though, the key factor will be how much fish they give you, so I will have to see that for myself next time I'm there. I will also need to try the onigiri too, and see how it compares to places like Junenov which also offers the fancy onigiri. So with those two out of mind, let's just focus on the sushi since that's mainly what we ordered today. We got several sushi rolls today, and they ranged from stuff with crunchies on top, to standard rolls, to baked rolls. The rolls overall were okay. A couple of them were pretty good, the other two were just mediocre at best, which I felt was due to not really providing a whole lot of fish on some of the rolls, as they're sliced pretty thin. I do like the spicy tuna here, as it's got a bit more flavor than some other places that have spicy tuna. However, I do feel that the portions of the rolls here were just not all the comparable considering how much they were charging for these rolls, especially when you consider you're right across the street from another sushi spot. At the end of the day, how did I feel about Ichiko Sushi? They're alright. I feel they're a bit pricey for most of the offerings here, especially since the quality just doesn't quite feel there. Didn't feel worth it for how much food I was getting from each roll either. Staff were pretty friendly, albeit, some minor hiccups figuring out the pos system, but again, this was some weeks back. There was also a bit of a wait for our food to come out, even though there was only one other table inside, but again, that was weeks back, hopefully they've sped up their delivery of the food to their patrons. I may perhaps go back and try another roll, or maybe try one of the onigiris, but hopefully whatever I order then will be a bit more filling and a better bang for my buck. read more

This place is amazing!!!!!! At a glance, it kind of looks like a fast food sushi place. You order through the machine. Then take a seat. Someone will bring you your food when ready. Very small eating establishment. Pretty clean inside. Most people cleaned up after themselves. The rolls are amazingly delicious!! They are a bit small but it explains why the prices were low. Definitely worth it. If i lived closer I would eat here weekly if not daily! read more

TL;DR good value mid-tier/to go sushi place. Possibly the best kept secret of the area. Compared to other "to go" sushi places in the area like Yo Sushi, this place wins in pricing and value. We've ordered takeout several times and dined in once -- they've been consistently good each time. This is officially one of our favorites when we're craving sushi. Favorites: - Alhambra Roll: The sauce(?) has a tang and jalapeño leaves a small kick. Has that "fat, acid, and heat" - The medium poke bowl IS SO WORTH IT. You get unlimited basic toppings (avocado is one of them!) and 3 scoops of protein. - Hamachi nigiri (which they gave on the house, so kind of them!) - fish was very fresh! Other rolls like Hummer, Mr. Ts, the chefs special are all solid options. Limited tables for dine-in, you bus your own tables, but if that's what keeps the prices low then no complaints here!! read more

I had to fly over here to write this review because DoorDash was acting up...typical. This restaurant, Ichiko Sushi, is new I've never eaten here before. And honestly took a chance on some DoorDash'd sushi. And it was delicious! I would definitely recommend and I would love to experience it in-house next time. Fresh fish. Yummy sauces. Thinly sliced cucumbers. Tasty seaweed salad. However, I would say the edemame were not salty at all and that was a bit different for me, still delicious! read more

I'm a big poke fan and this place did not disappoint. Poke can be overwhelming for a first timer and they have a big screen you can order from with all the options!

The restaurant is small and had a nice vibe to it, but despite not having many people, the wait for our food was really long. we waited for almost an hour for three bentos and they all came at different times so one person was done by the time another's came. the waitress didn't communicate at all how long our food was going to take or why it was taking so long. the bulgogi was a little overcooked and had more onions than meat. I ended up having to pick through the troth of onions to get a small piece of meat. my friend's tonkatsu was also dry. the bento boxes came with a salad and miso both of which were pretty good and the sushi was fresh and creative. I wouldn't come for the bentos or bowls (especially considering that they were very pricy), but it's a good place if you are looking for fresh sushi or poki bowls. read more

Will never go back here again. Food was fine the previous times I've been. Service was terrible today. I'm waiting in line behind's a family with kids to order on the touchscreen. We are the only people there. The cook/employee can clearly see me. Two new people walk in and approach the pickup where the cook is hanging out and proceed to order. Not cool. I walked up and tossed my menu and walked out. After posting the review above and a 1 star rating. Someone reached out to me and put in a sincere amount of time and effort to apologize and talk to staff to be better. Therefore i am changing to 5 stars. read more

Being from Hawaii I love me some musubi. But TBH never had inigiri before. Didn't even know it was a thing. Basically it's an open face musubi. I had the chx katsu curry one and a chx katsu kimchi one. As we say in Hawaii "broke da mouth". Just order online or be ready to be overwhelmed on the touch screen when you walk in. Will be back for sure. As an aside. Wife had the salmon poke bowl. She loved it. And just learned this: Apparently in the Kanto (Eastern Japan) area they are called o-musubi and in the Kansai (Western Japan) area they are called o-nigiri. I get em now, bah. read more

Not as good as I had hoped from the reviews. Got the california roll, chicken teriyaki, and the mango milk tea. The milk tea tasted weird; not very mango at all, and had old boba.

Food: 11/10 Service: 9/10 ambiance: 8/10 okay so my daughter is in love with their sushi. she texted me while she was on her lunch break at work to tell me the roll she ordered from them was heavenly and that I had to try it one day... that one day was yesterday; a Saturday afternoon. we ordered to-go but we used the kiosk inside (extra bonus points for me bc sometimes human interaction, for me, can be taxing). easy to use and simple to find food options. it's clean inside, bright and airy; I gave it an 8/10 bc I didn't use the bathroom. we waited for our food inside the establishment. from start of order to our order being ready... less than 8mins. the worker who brought out our to-go order was very nice as we exchanged a few words before we left. ok. now to the food... I didn't ordered what I wanted bc my daughter didn't want me to starve (I wanted a salad and some edamame). so she ended up choosing me a roll with some tempura shrimp inside... DEAR LORT! I only needed one bite to figure it out--IT WAS SOOOOOO Good! the taste, the aroma.. it was,... dare I say... almost perfect. she ordered herself a roll and roll for her and I to share; they entire order was near perfect! will most definitely be back to try more food bc I can only imagine how amazing the rest of the menu is. read more
