After eating here like ten times now, I think it's my favorite restaurant in the city. I feel like…read morewhen they first opened they had a lot of potential, but hadn't fine-tuned everything to really stand out. I felt that the elevated nature was more performative, whereas the actual flavor delivery was a bit average for the price point. Now I have almost the opposite opinion. The flavors are explosive and well-defined. A great example is the udon soup. The first time I ordered it years ago, it was good as a value purchase, but totally unremarkable. They've since replaced it with the "Sukiyaki Udon", which is probably the best udon I've ever had in my life. And I order beef udon literally everywhere. Their ramen is another good example. It straight up dominates Tamashii, Goro, and all the lesser ramen places in the city. Every bite and ingredient basically melts your face off. What stands out about those two ridiculously good items is it completely dissolves the concerns I had in my initial review, that it was elevated and performative and expensive for the sake of it. But the two items I just mentioned are both relatively cheap and extremely good value. So you can both splurge and spend $300 or feed two people for $40. It's a great balance depending on mood/occasion. I chose this for my last birthday. Hopefully it continues to impress.

This place gets a 4.7/5 from me…read more I learned that specialty rolls aren't really my thing the more flavors packed into a roll, the harder it is to appreciate each ingredient. The Espresso Natini was perfect 5/5: velvety, smooth, and an excellent mocktail. The Tuna Crispy Rice was another 5/5, with crispy yet soft rice and glazed tuna that added just the right touch of sweetness. The Foie Gras was rich, buttery, crispy, and topped with a sweet sauce. Absolutely delicious. 5/5 The biggest surprise was the salmon nigiri. It was the first time I tasted the buttery fat content. I'm new to sashimi! 5/5 The Tamago was a solid 4.5/5 with great texture and sweetness, though it could have used more rice and been served hotter. The Shogun was my lowest-rated dish at 3.5/5. Creative and refreshing, but too wet from the cucumber. The Smokin' Salmon Aburi was good, but had too many competing flavors. The most interesting item was the Baked King of Crab. I wasn't impressed at first, but after deconstructing it and eating the components separately, I discovered multiple types of crab, including a crab leg. That turned it into a 5/5.

I placed my order and my food came out pretty quickly. I took a bite of my food and then decided I wanted soy sauce. I picked up the clean bowl that the soy sauce goes in and wasn't really paying attention when I dumped some in. As I was dipping my sushi into the soy sauce, I noticed that a fly was in the sauce. I notified the waitress and she was very apologetic. She brought me a new bottle of soy sauce. I continued eating and things were going okay until the manager came to my table. She apologized for the fly and I told her that I understand that things happen sometimes. She proceeded to tell me that employees are instructed to strain the soy sauce prior to pouring it into the individual containers on the table. She walked off before I could fully consider that she meant strain for bugs or wonder why the soy sauce would need to be strained if it was fresh or sealed. No mention was made of giving me any kind of discount or replacing the piece of sushi that I lost to the fly incident.

The restaurant wasn't particularly busy, but we still had to wait a long time for different parts of our service. I understand that every restaurant can have an off day, so hopefully this was just a one-time experience. With a little more attention to service and timing, I think the overall experience could be much better. The food was definitely enjoyable, but based on my visit, the service is the main area that could use some improvement.

My usual order is the pork gyoza to share with a friend, along with the sushi tacos- both are a must! But the real star is the tuna tower. It's hands down the best tuna tower I've ever had!

The service is always great, and after being a loyal customer for more than a decade, I can confidently say I'll be coming back for another 10 years!

My family and I eat at the Ichiban restaurants at least once a month, and we absolutely love them!…read moreThe food is consistently delicious, the portions are great, the cost is just right, and the punch card program is an absolute steal! What really sets Ichiban apart, though, is the customer service. One time, I went in to pick up my order and the employee asked if I wanted to redeem one of my punch cards for a free bowl. I had completely forgotten I even had them! It turned out I had two full cards, and without me even asking, they let me redeem both and gave me two free bowls. Another time, our daughter puked all over the table out of nowhere. The server was so sweet and kind. She tried to clean it but there was no way we were going to let her do that. She brought us every thing we asked for and we cleaned it up. She even brought our daughter something to settle her tummy. Today, I accidentally placed my online order at the wrong location. I called as soon as I realized my mistake, and the employee immediately offered to contact the correct location for me. He took care of everything and told me my order would be ready in about ten minutes. Mind-you, these things happened at three different locations. This is one of those rare restaurants where you truly don't mind waiting if they're busy because you know the food and the service are always worth it. Ichiban has earned loyal customers in our family, and we'll continue recommending them to everyone we know!
