Staff was great! Took awhile to get a seat, so we sat at the bar. But once we met the waitstaff and chef, it was good! Everyone was nice and accommodating. Vibe is chill. Sushi was great! Not too expensive.

First time in a long time, I finally got my "extra" unagi (eel) roll! Ichiban has a superb unagi roll! It's difficult for me find a good sushi restaurant that actually gives you enough freshwater eel. But this sushi-ya is super generous with my fave dish! I am definitely coming back for that super eel roll! My mom got the yakisoba and that was actually pretty good too! The noodles were a bit too soft/overcooked but the entire dish was deliciously seasoned, with veggies perfectly al dented! 10/10 will return!!

This place is amazingly good! One of the hidden gems on the Westside. Everytime we come it's exceptional. The entree's come out super fresh and HOT. The sushi is amazing and super tasty. So many great flavors. The only very small issue is the amount of rice that comes with the entree. It's a small portion so we have to order an extra side of white rice. Service is great! The restrooms are super clean, and even had a baby changing table in the Men's bathroom.

Don't buy the beer. Overpriced and upcharged. Food is average at best.

We haven't been here since the remodel and are disappointed we haven't been back sooner. The Lunch Build Box was perfect. The portions are just right and the flavors and texture of the food are spot on. We will be making a point to visit more often!!!
Love this place! So glad we came here. Definitely our new favorite. Atmosphere and staff are great.

I enjoy each visit @ Ichiban. The korean food ? is very delicious ?! This visit we tried 3 different lunch bowls, a korean ?? pancake ? & two sushi ? rolls. The beef bulgogi was outstanding along with the bonchan & egg! Yum! My parents had the chicken teriyaki, and they both enjoyed it along with their side dishes: gyoza/mandu, egg rolls, and tempura. Myvdad tried sushi for the first time after years of thinking it's awful. He enjoyed the spicy tuna roll! He especially liked the spice level ?Definitely coming back!
Fantastic sushi. Tip top service and atmosphere as well. We go all the time after discovering it. Highly recommend...

Ichiban used to be one of our go to spots when we wanted tasty and reliable sushi closer to home. Post covid they've changed ownership and style. We've been back three times since they reopened and it's just not the same. Food quality is down. We hate the new setup--it's crowded and claustrophobic. I know it's supposed to provide privacy, but it doesn't work. The menu has changed. Reduction in sushi choices, elimination of some staples, and now Korean dishes. Why? There was nothing wrong with the traditional Japanese vibe they were rocking previously. Guess we'll have to find a new go to joint, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't give it a shot. Ichiban may be what you're looking for.
I love Japanese food! Great food!
