Ikkyu Japanese Restaurant offers a variety of dishes, with standouts being their dynamite roll, challenge ramen, and shrimp tempera. The Chico Roll is fantastic, and the ramen bowls are HUGE. The tempura vegetables are perfect—not too heavy or greasy—and the spicy miso soup hits the spot on cold rainy nights. While the shrimp tempera is on the pricier side, its crispy shallot and veggie accompaniments make it a tasty choice. The challenge ramen has received high praise, being hailed as the best among competitors. The dishes are beautifully presented, and everything tastes great. The atmosphere is relaxed, with good music playing in the background. Service is timely, and the food is brought out quickly. Prices are on par with other sushi restaurants, making it a great spot for authentic Japanese cuisine. Despite some hiccups during the soft opening, the sushi has been consistently well-prepared and delicious. The workers are Japanese, adding to the authenticity of the experience. It’s a great place to support a small business while enjoying fantastic food.
