Inexpensive Japanese food - a good lunch spot. Place is a little tired.

Went for dinner and enjoyed the mango and california rolls amount others. Service was very good as many servers would ensure we had enough food and enjoyed our food.

We recently ordered take-out from Sushi Ichiban and it was superb! The salmon sashimi cuts were fresh and thick; the California rolls were refreshing (with cucumber); the salads had a really nice homemade Japanese dressing on them without being drenched and the grilled teriyaki chicken dinner was outstanding - totally generous on the portion front. The prices are also very fair!

Dietary restrictions: They are accommodating to allergy restriction like avocado which they swap for cucumber.

Interesting little place that's been around for awhile. I'm guessing it was originally owned and operated by a Japanese person at one point, but then taken over by someone Chinese later due to the unusual available selection of Dim Sum items (and Cantonese Chinese staff as I distinctly heard Cantonese in the restaurant and I'm part Cantonese myself)? Is it the best sushi in town? No, i'd cede that to places like Nupo and so on, but you will also pay the prices for such top places. But is it a good neighborhood sushi place with decent prices and portions? Yes it is, and I'm speaking out of experience of living in Tokyo for awhile and having my fave neighborhood haunts outside of the usual public centers and tourist traps like Shibuya, Asakusa and Roppongi. Now admittedly the pork cutlet from my katsu don could have been crispier and the egg not overcooked, but to me this dish is a measure of a neighborhood Japanese restaurant as it's pretty much an inexpensive standard found in every hole in the wall Tonkatsu and Shokudo, not unlike finding steak and eggs in every diner in America. I would give it a 3.5 out of 5, not the best but still worth it for comfort food once in awhile. The Grilled squid was decent, and the tempura could've used a little more seasoning, but still a decent take. The music was an odd instrumental mix of Broadway and Hollywood musical number, with Chinese pop (also instrumental) thrown in which someone as travelled as me would notice, but 85% of most diners would have caught that. Otherwise, it was a decent meal, and I would rate it appropriately more of a neighborhood resto (even if Japanese). My actual rating would be 3.75 stars, but Google doesn't allow that. Still, if the goal is to have something Japanese, it'll do in a pinch

Kid-friendliness: Kids would like the place. Families were there when I visited.

We have no idea how the food is as we had to walk out after being seated. The server barely was listening nir did she answer questions when asked on way to table.

Place was not busy, but they walked away and never came back for 10 mins. So we just left feeling our business was not valued.

My daughter and I went for lunch here. It was not very busy so we got to sit in the bench where you take your shoes off which was very cool. Our server was friendly, the food was delicious and she was very accommodating to requests.
