Their miso soup has become a regular part of my weekly routine (and by weekly, I mean multiple times a week). The salad comes with a creamy ginger dressing that is ridiculously flavorful, and my partner is completely obsessed with the gyoza--especially the dipping sauce that sneaks in just the right amount of kick. Every hot dish we've ordered has been packed with flavor and arrives absolutely piping hot. The bento boxes, ginger steak bowl, and lo mein have all been consistently delicious. And the sushi? Fresh, generous, and stuffed to the brim. Honestly, the hardest part about Ichiban is convincing myself not to eat there several times a week. Save yourself the suspense--just go. Your future self will thank you.

Sapporo might displace Yosaku as my go to lunch spot! The lunch menu is very reasonably priced, about $15-22 depending on what you get. 3 rolls for $18 is just about as good as it gets (lower for veggie) and they have some unusual additions as "standard" rolls including spicy scallop and real Maine crab California. I like that most of their hot food also has a smaller lunch portion as well. I've had the katsu before, would recommend. They also have kids sets including a sushi set, which is a big deal for me because my kid can be more expensive than me if I order her à la carte inari depending on the spot. Overall the ease of parking and beautiful interior make this tempting to just skip going into Portland when the sushi craving hits.

The hibachi grill "show" is exactly what you would expect. The flames, the spinning egg, the spatula banging/drumming, the onion flaming volcano, the tossing pieces of food so the customers can catch it in their mouth, and squirting sake directly into your mouth. I haven't been to hibachi grill in at least 15 years...nothing has changed. Exactly the same. The grill guy was very enthusiastic, funny, and gave my daughter a balloon when he was finished cooking. The food portions are generous. We both brought about half our meal. The food was fresh. The flavors were average...like they intentionally made them basic for the most common denominator. I did like each portion included both rice and noodles. The meal also comes with a small salad (very basic) and a clear broth soup which was better than I expected. The price is reasonable.

All items were expertly cooked, and the flavor was so satisfying, hitting so many notes. All three at my table felt equally enthusiastic about the food. The restaurant is small (but they do a lot of takeout), so anticipate possibly waiting for a table. The time from ordering to receiving your order was quick. But the best part of the restaurant was the family that owns it. They were so nice and accommodating, hospitality at its finest. A great example, I was told my takeout order would be another 5-10 minutes, so I went outside to my car. The owner walked it out to my car. So gracious and positive. Look them up in your GPS and let it guide you to a wonderful meal.

Had to get the sushi "yacht" for two. But the nigiri was kind of weird. The rice tasted warm. Not like, perfect temperature from the hands of the itamae, but weird tepid lukewarm sitting around rice. The sashimi didn't seem so fresh to me, and sushi grade quality was questionable. The roll also seemed to be at an odd temperature. Overall I was rather disappointed. The best part for me was the sake. But my date (outside of her comfort zone) did seem to like it overall. I don't want to be negative, but this is definitely a "won't visit again" for me.

My wife and I shared three maki: vegetable tempura, inari (sweet marinated tofu), and avocado dream. We would love to return to try some of their many other vegetarian options. The vegetable tempura roll, which contained broccoli, green bean, sweet potato, onion tempura, and sweet brown glaze, was probably my favorite. This roll was huge, so open wide! The avocado dream was a close second, with sweet potato, avocado, and cream cheese. It's tempura fried with a truffle mayo on top, which gave it a really unique flavor! Though not as fancy as the two specialty maki, the inari maki was delicious too. The service was prompt and the kitchen was efficient, so we had plenty of time to get to our next destination without worrying. I'd love to return if I'm ever back in Brunswick!

It is a BEAUTIFUL drink, though. Love the colors! For my food, I got the Japanese curry. The portion size was very generous, the chicken was impressively crispy, even after being dunked in or mixed around in the curry sauce. The curry itself was a thick, rich, savory gravy. It's not spicy - very mild - and really complements the chicken and rice and other flavors very well. I will certainly be back.
