Ichiro Japanese Restaurant

Don't expect sauced up California rolls or a billion different special rolls. If you want good combination sets with simple yet carefully executed authentic sushi and other Japanese cuisine offerings this is a great place. They do have special rolls but the flavors are still delicate. Prices are reasonable for what you get.

This is our first time here. We live 10 minutes away. I highly recommend making reservations and bring your ID and proof of vaccinations because they will check. You are allowed to enjoy your visit for 90 minutes. First off I'd like to say from the phone call to the service, they had been professional, courteous and very respectful. We came in for a 6pm reservation. They sat us immediately. I believe not all tables have this option of ringing for service when you are ready. Smart. Second, the menu was quite full of variety and wonderful looking options. We ordered, prawn and assorted tempura, assorted sashimi, which was chosen by the sushi chef ( 7 items ): shrimp, high grade tuna, tuna belly in a sesame oil and green onion mixture, salmon, sea urchin roe, snapper I think or yellow tail, and one other that I swear tasted like lovely beef carpaccio but wasn't, tempura and chicken karaage don and soba noodles, roll set consisting of California rolls, avocado rolls, kappa rolls, dynamite rolls, sunomono salad and edamame. We also ordered Japanese calamari with a subtle mayo sesame dipping sauce. Everything about this meal was excellent. The rolls weren't rolled with too much rice. The quality of the sashimi was incredibly fresh and delicious. The house made soy sauce was light and paired well with the sashimi. The japanese chefs to the Japanese servers were great. The server was attentive and friendly. The value for money was good. I want to go back and try the other items. The tempura was lightly battered and tasty. We were so pleasantly satisfied. Our server came by with a scoop of green tea ice cream with a candle on top to celebrate my son's birthday today. How sweet. And yes I ordered a scoop of mango ice cream and it was a perfect way to cap off the evening. Thank you staff of Ichiro.
