" Very disappointing experience. I had heard good things but what I received did not meet my expectations. The tempura tasted greasy and old. It did not have that delicate crunch; instead, it was soggy. The sushi rice was bland, too. However, I commend the staff for being polite and attentive. Sadly, I can’t recommend Ichiban. " (*Curated Review*)
