" It's a quaint little sushi joint with a lovely outdoor patio. I tried the spicy tuna roll and it was delightful, albeit a bit pricey for the portion size. Service was decent but could be improved. Overall, I think it’s a nice spot to relax with a few rolls. " (*Curated Review*)

" This is a family-run business, and it shows in their care for customers! I felt welcomed right from the moment I stepped in. The food arrived promptly, and the sushi was well-prepared. We loved the variety available! My only wish is that they had more vegan options, but overall, a lovely experience that I highly recommend. " (*Curated Review*)

" The restaurant has a lovely setting with a nice patio but sadly, the sushi left much to be desired. The rolls were lackluster and the rice was undercooked. I appreciated the cleanliness of the place and the friendliness of the staff, but the food didn't meet my expectations. " (*Curated Review*)

" Ichiban is a hidden gem in the city! My family and I often come here for a casual dining experience. Last week, we tried their tempura udon and dynamite rolls, and they were fantastic! The flavors are vibrant and full of authenticity. Only downside was the service was a bit slow, but the friendly attitude of the staff made the wait bearable. It’s become a ritual for us every month. " (*Curated Review*)

" Disappointed isn’t even the word! Having read so many good reviews, my expectations were high, only to be let down. The sushi rice was bland, and the fish didn’t taste fresh at all. The miso soup was the highlight, but even that couldn’t save the meal. The service staff were sweet but seemed overwhelmed. I won’t come back. " (*Curated Review*)

" Ichiban has been my family's favorite sushi place for years. They never disappoint! Each time we visit, the staff treats us like family, and the food is always superb. I love the variety of rolls they offer and how fresh the fish tastes. I highly recommend their sashimi platter—it’s a dining experience in itself! " (*Curated Review*)

" Ichiban Sushi was a pleasant surprise during my visit. I was initially uncertain based on past experience at other sushi restaurants, but their quality exceeded my expectations this time. The fish tasted exceptionally fresh, and the rolls were quite creative! I loved the laid-back vibe and will definitely return soon. " (*Curated Review*)
