8/2023We were staying across the street at Maui Seaside Hotel to support Maui relief efforts. This was a very convenient and pleasant option. Food and selection were great, quick, and supported with friendly service. It was bust but didn't take too long to get to our table of nine. Not going into details about the plethora of items we ordered but suffice to say everything was onolicious! Again, the friendly service ( may have been the manager) helped top off the evening. I would definitely want to go back! ??✌️

Had the A combination. Enjoyed the tempura and teriyaki beef. Their sauces were flavorful, not salty. The katsu was too crunchy, thin and tasteless, wouldn't get it again. Came with miso soup and Kim chi, and pickled cabbage. Attentive Service. Prices were what was expected. Had leftovers to take home. When I return to Maui, I will go to this restaurant.

Service is good and staff is friendly. Their food is good but the sushi is not (especially for the price). The quality of the ingredients were fine. The prep on the other hand is just not good. The sushi rice was dry and almost tasted like plain rice. One of the hamachi nigiri and one of the salmon nigiri had a bone in it. I honestly can’t remember if I’ve ever had a piece of bone in my nigiri before and I’ve eaten at A LOT of sushi places. The rolls we had were subpar. If the prices for sushi were lower it’d make more sense. Honestly I’d rather go to Genki sushi for sushi… or even just go to foodland.

This is the worst restaurant we ever had! The miso soup was so salty and we had to pour the ice water. The poke rice was lumpy and looked like from lunch leftover. We complained to our waitress but she emphasized it was special order for us. Very unpleasant dinner and will never come back!
If you're looking for old time Maui grinds, Ichiban Restaurant & Sushi is it! Support your local bussiness!!

Stopped in on the way to the airport looking for warm soup on a rainy day for lunch service. We were greeted by a waitress who was genuinely concerned about our comfort. She recommended the saimin and we were not disappointed! The broth was hearty, but light on the tongue and with delicate shellfish flavors. Really good! Ingredients in the saimin were very flavorful and incorporated well. We also ordered the potstickers and were delighted with the flakey fried wraps.Service was quick and personable, food was delicious. Very happy with our experience!

They weren't open, drove 35 mins to eat there and the door was locked! Also looks sketchy from the outside.
Their Dynamite sushi really hits the spot!
