    Yuck. Sushi didn't seem fresh. Soups were bland and tasteless. The only thing that my friend and I liked was the seaweed salad. Other than that, the place smelled bad, the walls were and bathroom dirty.

    Carrots with mystery particles.

    The fried rice is dry. The sweet carrots was unseasoned The customer service was horrible, the drive thru lady was surely . The chicken was fatty .

    Employee smoking while I wait for my order.

    Ordered online and arrived 5 minutes before they opened. Lady at window said I would be waiting. 20 minutes later and nothing. I Called the store to check on my order and was told it would be another 15 minutes. Waited another 10 after the 15 minutes before my food came out! And I had to go inside to check again! Meanwhile an employee came out to smoke twice while I waited on my food. I waisted my entire lunch break waiting on food! Online ordering should not be open if orders can not be filled.

    Hibachi Chicken & Shrimp with fried rice and their delectable shrimp sauce.

    Ichiro will always have my heart and soul. Friendly, fast, efficient staff. Fresh, plentiful and simply great tasting hibachi, teriyaki and sushi entrees for very reasonable prices. For Japanese cuisine in the Rock Hill area, Ichiro initially set the bar, and continues to maintain it to this day. I frequent every Japanese cuisine establishment in the area on a regular basis, and for the freshness, amount of food, consistently, wonderful taste, and value for money, they simply cannot be beat. Though Ichiro may lack the fancy, arguably pretentious decor of other Japanese eateries in the area, what is does excel in is exceptionally tasty, plentiful and very fresh food at very reasonable prices, which is what matters most. They are truly a culinary diamond in the Rock Hill area that I always visit and recommend to others again and again and again.

    I like to go to Ichiro when I'm not in the mood for a fancy, sit-down sushi meal. It's always fresh and the service is fast.

    The veggies I had tasted as if they were not rinsed well. It had a very "gritty" texture to it. Shrimp sauce was not great.

The presentation on the food is consistent and extremely appetizing. Food comes out hot and usually on their red and black designer bowls and plates. If your table orders several sushi rolls they have these decorative platters (some shaped like a wooden boat and some shaped like an ornate disc) that are almost too beautiful to eat. I say "almost" because there is no way anyone could leave a single grain of rice unattended at our table! It's definitely a breath of fresh air from how overcrowded other restaurants in the area can feel. My husband had their sirloin bento and I had the tofu hibachi bowl. The rice was cooked perfectly and we loved how thinly sliced the vegetables were. We will definitely be back!

The decor is great with vivid black, white, and red accents throughout. The walk-up to order counter is adjacent to their partially open kitchen. The cashier and servers were so friendly, attentive, and helpful. Most items are prepared fresh to order, but the wait was not long at all. What we ordered: - Katana Shrimp bowl with fried rice, mixed vegetables, and sweet carrots - Teriyaki Chicken Bowl with onions, zucchini, and sweet carrots - Crab Rangoon - Miso Soup Unfortunately, I was initially brought the wrong soup. The server noticed it right away and went back to the kitchen to get the correct one. It took a long while for her come back, which I thought was odd. I figured there must be an issue with the soup. By the time the correct soup arrived, we had eaten our full order of crab rangoon and finished our bowls. At first glance, I noticed that the soup bowl appeared to have residue from the previous soup in it. I found it interesting that they apparently used the same cardboard bowl instead of getting a new one. After such a long wait and completing all other parts of our meal, I thought to just take the soup to-go, but wanted to give it a quick try before we left. I took 1 spoonful and the soup tasted sour. I thought it was perhaps due to the other items I had just eaten, so I cleansed my palate and took 2 more spoonfuls...the soup had an unpleasant, sour taste. I eat miso soup often...it has a standard taste in general. Never have I tasted a sour miso soup. So, I was afraid to consume any more of it and took the bowl up to the cashier to tell her about it. She immediately provided service recovery and offered to replace it or to ask for a refund. When I told her that we were leaving and I didn't have time to wait for them to prepare a replacement, she gladly offered to find a lead, so I could be refunded. The lead came to the counter and was very kind. She advised that she needed a manager to override the refund amount ($4.36). The manager arrived with a smile, but then began to reprimand me for wanting a refund and insisted that the miso soup did not taste sour and was not spoiled. She went on to refund me the $4.36 begrudgingly...but she did do it...and all with a smile. Outside of that aspect of our meal and experience, everything else we ate was delicious and filling and priced well.

Well, as soon as I hit the door, I can tell they changed a few things....decor-wise. The area near the entryway wasn't bad...if anything, a bit better? However, the buffet area was way worse. I'd definitely say downscaled. There was absolutely no vibe to the place. Despite the lofty size, it was dead silence. No overhead music...and not many diners either (on a New Year's Eve). In fact, I don't ever recall this place being so quiet. The buffet foods were also downscaled. The foods all just looked so bad...as in TV dinner quality? Some of it didn't even look fresh? In fact, I'm worried about the sushi that I had. They were some of the worst sushi I've ever had...as in EVER HAD!!! Also, they didn't even have some of the items I used to enjoy...liked steamed buns (or maybe I just didn't catch it??). Good thing that they kept the pricing reasonable...about $19 per person? Although I don't recall being blown away by the quality in the past (especially in the past decade), the foods were MUCH better in quality the last time we were here (2020?). It's truly sad because when this place first opened way back when, it was really good. However, with the change of management over the years from Jade to Ginza, things kept dipping downward. Both my husband and son agreed on just how bad everything was this time...and we also agreed that this is probably the last time we'll come here.
