Ichiban Japanese Steak House

This place is the best Asian food in town! Love eating here with the family. Only complaint is some of their cooks don't do the whole display of lighting things on fire when cooking or the throwing rice at you, haha, I kinda like it and feel like thats part of the experience. Other than that, this place rocks

Food was horrible and service was beyond terrible

We had a party of 4, ONLY one person got theirs right. I didn't ask for noodles but I still got them. Another person had chicken and water but they only got chicken. Another person asked for tuna but gave them chicken and steak instead. Basically had to make corrections. Why did I come here...

Don't tip the tall skinny cook he got offended
when I tipped him $8 on a $14 plate

Waited 40 minutes before chef came to fix food. We were only table the whole over an hour we were there (not sure why). Normally great place for lunch.

We came here as a basketball team and although they did seem to be a bit understaffed it took them forever to take our orders and a good 30 minutes just to get our water. Although I didnt get to eat (because it took about an hour so we left) my family who did stay and eat said it was bland and not worth the price. Very extremely overpriced as sweet tea was 3.50 and the crab puffs were all creme cheese.

I’ll start off by saying this is definitely not the place it used to be. We walked in and the floors were sticky. We were sat right away. We had a good waitress and I will say that was about the only good part. The food was disappointing to say the least. The soup had a weird taste to it. I still can’t figure out what it was but it had something it shouldn’t have. The salad dressing was sour. We specifically ordered dinner portions during lunch, but we must have got the lunch rice portion because we hardly got any. The rice we got was excessively oily and raw. The vegetables were missing broccoli and carrots. Zucchini and onions only. The shrimp was missing flavor and soy sauce. The steak was very fatty. Our drinks and the ginger sauce were the only things that had any flavor. Only one cook for several tables. We will not be going back.

Went to Ichiban and arrived at 7:08 PM. We waited patiently. A family of three walked in after us—one of them wanted to leave, but we encouraged them to stay, explaining that the quoted wait time is usually longer than the actual wait, typically around 20 minutes. Then a party of five arrived, followed by a party of four. When I politely said, “Excuse me sir, but we got here first,” the owner looked me straight in the eyes and said, “I’ll seat you later,” and proceeded to seat everyone else ahead of us. By 7:46 PM, we were still waiting. If you’ve been there before, you know the lobby isn’t the most comfortable—especially with a baby getting overheated. Honestly, that felt really disappointing. We did the opposite of complaining—we encouraged others to stay—just to be treated like we didn’t matter.
