On our road trip to South Carolina, my wife and kids needed a place to stop to stretch our legs and…read morefill our bellies. Reviews of local restaurants in Point Pleasant, WV mentioned this Japanese restaurant, and since the kids love noodles we decided it would be a safe bet. Well I'm happy to say this decision paid off because Ichiban did not disappoint. Between the rice, noodles, and the wonton (which is Chinese of course) I can say we didn't have one thing here that was not delicious. All the animal proteins, especially the filet mignon, were perfectly seasoned. Mind you it's no different from other hibachi style restaurants such as a Benihana, but I was not expecting to find this type of food in these parts. Our waitress was also very sweet and attentive to our needs, especially with having two little kids to travel with. The only negative thing I'll say is the soup is really not good. Absolutely zero flavor whatsoever.

Extremely late post (2024)…read more I hate doing post like these. Especially a few years later lol. I do not enjoy giving out 1 stars. To be completely honest, if I'm remembering it correctly, the food wasn't that bad. It wasn't until we saw a spider and a few roaches crawling on the wall, the bad taste started to come. As much as we like hibachi, this is the closest place to us and we probably never be back. I hate to say never but it's not looking good lol.

Athens is a college town and the restaurants on Court Street, the main drag through town where…read moreuniversity and town come together, primarily cater to those 18-22. It means there are burritos and pizza galore. And fast Asian. Mr. Hibachi is in that tradition and they are efficient in part by having a veritable army of folks working quickly to keep up with a brisk takeaway business. There are dining-in options but that isn't their primary focus. If you do want to eat in, there are 3 tables in the busy front section that can accommodate 4 or five folks. Then there is a string of high tops for 2 that run down the length of the skinny store. So we mostly do take-out drawing on both the straight forward sushi options or hibachi options. Lots of both with no big surprises. But portions are generous and prices reasonable. Favs in my family are the shrimp hibachi that you can substitute lo mien noodles for white or fried rice for a small mark up. I'm partial to the sashimi combo that won't be confused for high end fish but the slices are thick and the dish is filling and a good deal since it is under $20 and comes with miso and a generous fried rice portion. If you get a big order ie 2 bags instead of one for takeaway, be sure to check your order and make sure you have both bags. They have a lot of orders to fill so a couple of times I wasn't paying attention and left without one of the bags. In one case I did get a call quickly from the store asking me to come back and pick it up. A couple times there was a missing side (yum yum sauce for the hibachi) or side of fried rice. So as always, can't hurt to check to make sure everything is there. One final feature to point out. I really like the ability to order online for and choose a later time for pickup. This approach works well for bringing home dinner right after class or a workout. Given how busy they can get when the students are in town, this feature is often wise to use.

They do feature lots of specific Chinese dishes as well but rarely do you see someone eating these in the dinning area which almost always has room. They are organized and quick with the rare exception of big sushi orders coming in at once. And the pick three sushi rolls is a common and my go-to order. Eel avocado, fried sweet potato, and peanut avocado is my eclectic mix of choice (picture below). Dining companions who opt for the bowls often get a lid and take home leftovers (or they should). And hot tip - pay with cash and get a free fountain drink! It is located right in the middle of Court Street, the main drag for Athens. Parking isn't always available right in front at meters but the parking garage is a block away. They do quite a bit of delivery business as well.

The biggest difference and a plus was the lack of the giant, noisy exhaust hoods over the flat cooking surface. The chef did the normal routine of skilled food manipulation and flames. He did try twice to throw rice from the spatula into my mouth, unsuccessfully. He did hit my head each time and it was all in fun. I had chicken and scallops with fried rice. Everything was plentiful, tasty, and stove hot. The meal started with a clear soup, and a salad. The scallops had an egg yoke sauce option which I accepted. They have a full bar and specialty drinks. The staff generally spoke better English than many similar restaurants. If you have someone who's never been to a Japanese Steakhouse, especially kids, this is a satisfying introduction. Nothing extraordinary but clean,well staffed, good quantities of freshly prepared foods in front of you with skill and levity.

The service was amazing as well " even though for some of you it could be hard to understand what they say cause of their accent " they waiter I had named Yoga was a pretty chill dude and was very respectful so, thank you Yoga. The Hibachi chef was very entertaining with his wacky personality and he wasn't afraid to say what he wanted. Enjoyed his jokes and wild personalities. His skills in the Hibachi Kitchen was what I expected it to be. Even though he was supper tired cause we showed up at a very late & they closed in a hour and 30 minutes he still gave it his all to entertain the audience. The Noodles w/Chicken&Shrimp with a side of veggies I order was high quality and nice and tender meat, the sushi was super fresh and the salad was bomb as hell. Me and my Fiancé spent at least $100 for 2 that's with the $20-tip we gave them without the tio it was about $90 but, if you play your cards right and get the cheap items you can still save a little.
