Very average-tasting udon noodle soup. I like their concept of adding side dishes to the noodles -…read morebut the cost can easily add up, and their side dishes are mainly deep fried stuff...

One of the best neighborhood sushi places in the area. Had the Takoyaki and croquette to start,…read moremountain veg udon, shared a sushi platter and took a ebi maki home for mum. Everything was ON POINT and the waitress was incredibly accommodating, she seriously made us feel right at home even though the restaurant was packed. If I had to pick a bone it would be that the vegetable croquette lacked on the 'veg' part, it was pretty much 98% potato with maybe a pea here an there, it was delicious none the less.

Ichiban Japanese Restaurant @ Doncaster East…read more Lunchtime... We were a large group 12 adults w/ 5 kids.. another table was of similar size and the 3rd and 4th group were tables of 4.... didn't see others in restaurant at the time The GOOD... Management willing to be flexible and acknowledge short comings.. "see the bad" nothing that cant be fixed.. floor staff need to be better trained to deal with large bookings, hangry (hungry n angry) patrons and kitchen better prepared The BAD... it is an ALL YOU CAN EAT with a 90min time limit.. and a food wastage charge of $5 / 100gram... this is fine but.... if kitchen is not prepared and the first complete order is not even served after 50min has passed! There is obvious room for improvement. the psyche of an all you can eat patron is... he is on the clock!!! "I'm going to this place to eat as much as I can!!!" With the expectation that he'll be booted out if he doesnt finish in time.. there is also the expectation that he gets what he wants and fast!! the all you can eat patron cannot wait n wait n wait... and that is exactly what happened! No food for 30min and even then what ever was brought out was gone in 3min due to our large group. with no sustainence in stomach that then feeds the brain??? The "hangry" orders more and more. There is something seriously wrong here!! why is there still no food??? the dribs n drabs that is served - gone.. After an hour and 10 minutes have past.. there was only 20min left before times up! So the hangry got even more hangrier!! ... worse still NOT FULL??? O M G! Repeat of Ishin in Forest Hill... The YUMMY At an all you can eat, there is expectation of quality and if there are small short comings it can be forgiven but none of that here! The sashimi cuts were of high quality!!! Thick and fresh. No skimping eg at Ishin! The rolls were ok as expected from an all you can Japanese places though they load it with dense rice. So avoid repeated orders for rolls.

Marinated pork slices on sizzling plate. I forget the menu name, but it was great. Thin slices of…read morevery tender pork, packed a punch with spicy kochujang - warning as it has lots of fat bits well hidden by the sauce. Fresh rice, served with good seafood pancake. Been here a few times and service is ... abrupt. For dinner, they do insist you order one main per person and seating is tight so they aren't shy about rushing you out.

From the many times I've been here, NEVER disappoint, as a matter of fact better since Yoon Lee…read moretake over the serving, super friendly, pleasant and makes the lunch experience more enjoyable. It was too hard to order, as there are too many of my favourite things, so I went for the Bento Box, Teriyaki Beef. Dinner time is the best to order and sample the menu. One note to the proprietor, please keep the door open or install a better exhaust as it can be suffocating with those yummy grilled dishes.

Avoid it like the plague? Totally not worth the money? Well you get the idea.. The food was bad,…read morethe fried stuff tasted like it had been left to sit there for hours. The worst was my udon with chicken karaage! The batter was way too thick! Is it even meant to be done with batter? Too salty, and burnt from refrying and I couldn't taste the ginger. I complained about it but they didn't take it off my bill. If there's anything I know about Japanese food, it is my karaage! How dare they call it chicken karaage! Sacrilegious!!!

It is surprised only 1 review of this place on yelp, they've opened nearly 3 years, I moved from…read moreCairns to Melbourne recently, I like this sushi train place, the music made me relax, the staff was attentive, the choices of sushi were abundant, the other customers were not noisy. I've been there 4 times this months although I only found this place last month. I like their Chicken Avocado nigiri sushi, and blowtorched salmon, and very hard to find Kirin Ichiban beer from Japan, well, they have limited stock of it too. Averagely I and my wife spent $50~$60 including beer per dinner at Edomae which is normal to dine at a proper sushi train place, don't know about their hot dishes, but we do suggest sushi lover should give it a go.
