I usually order the spicy tuna roll for take out and each time it's been fresh, delicious and quick. The ambience inside is very intimate and clean. The service is good each time. I highly recommend this sushi restaurant.

Love this place. The 2-piece Bento box is great (and big!) Service is friendly and restaurant is cozy.

I ate at this sushi place last night and it's still good as I remembered. The sushi was fresh and tasty. The edamame was really good too. Service was great--fast and nice. We'll definitely be back.

I am a fan! We ordered the cherry blossom roll, the orange blossom roll, and the samurai. All tasted amazing and were presented beautifully. I couldn't have picked a better restaurant to have my first real postpartum meal! The orange blossom roll was so simple yet so flavorful! We loved the sauce that was drizzled on it and the samurai was a fun choice we had never had before with a delicious kick from the fresh jalapeños. If you like spicy, if highly recommend this! And the cherry blossom roll is our go-to and the reason we picked this restaurant to begin with and it didn't disappoint!

My favorite sushi spot in the area! Every visit is an awesome experience with friendly staff, a clean atmosphere, & most importantly... Sushi, Bentos, Drinks & Deserts that never fail to impress. Mahalo Ichiban for the continued consistency & the extra close attention to detail from the dining-in experience to the execution of dishes. Always a pleasure Ichiban! Looking forward to my next visit.

We went here twice so far and found them to be pretty good. The service was great the last time we came as well. The Lion King roll was good. The Bento boxes are enjoyable. The place was clean and had a good overall smell, which is a big thing for me. The bathrooms were nice. The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars was because the first time we came about a year ago the service was different. This most recent time was much better though. I would certainly recommend them.

We came here on both a recommendation and a whim. Our usual spot has been closed temporarily and our secondary (Bonsai) served us rotten cucumber. Perfect time to try something new! This place is located in a little strip mall on the right-hand side of the Safeway, near Bagel Street Café and Papa Murphy's. It is small, with dim lighting, but very clean and outstanding service. The fish and other ingredients were fresh and tasty. The portions are acceptable for the prices. We ordered three rolls and shared them between the two of us. I really wanted to try the sashimi, but found it was a bit pricier than our other staples. That's OK, everything else made up for that. We'll definitely be back!

We're always greeted and sat almost right away upon entering the restaurant. It's small but a decent space. It's very clean and nice inside. Ernee is usually our server and she's the best!! She's always positive, upbeat, and really makes an effort to get to know you and what you like/don't like and will make recommendations. We get our food pretty fast every time we visit which is great, especially with hungry children. Every dish I've had here is delicious. Their spicy edamame is the best edamame appetizer I've ever had (and I've had a few different kinds).

SOOOOOOoooooooo GOOD! Always! I sometimes don't know what's better - the food or the service. We have been eating here consistently since 2019. The food is ALWAYS fast, fresh, hot, consistently good, and perfectly proportioned and appropriately priced. Ernee (short for Ernestine) is magic!!! I don't know how she remembers every order we place without writing anything down, but she does. Every - single - time! And although we only eat here about once a month, she always greets us with the WARMEST of hellos and a "do you want your usual?" I feel like we are eating in her home more than we are a public establishment. There isn't anything on this menu we haven't tried now. The spicy edamame is really special - do not miss out on this! I always forget to take pictures because the food is so good, it's not until halfway through the meal (and clearly not Yelp picture worthy). This charming sushi restaurant may be small, but don't let that detour you if there isn't an immediate place to sit. Their service is so fast and so good, your wait won't be long - and trust me, it's worth it! Thank you Ichiban for being OUR sushi place!

A tiny unassuming restaurant. The interior is a bit dark. The few times that I dined in, I only saw the same lone server. She was great though... friendly, efficient, and attentive. Food is good. We normally go for the bento box. My fave here is the sesame chicken. It is delicious!
