okay, so i am reading reviews about the terrible customer service and yada yada yada.
i have been here numerous times and the staff and chef's have always been kind and fun.
the first time i took a bite of their sushi i fell in love. that may sound overdramatic but i love my sushi (gone with the wind is amazing!) and the places in murfreesboro where i am from rip you off. Rusans gives me a good amount of sushi for a great price and most of their rolls are HUGE. their one dollar sushi rolls are a favorite of mine too. i took my boyfriend here and he loved it, and i also took my friend here who does not like sushi so she ordered chicken terriyaki and she liked it alot she is also really picky with her food as well! the music is fun, techno, and great. Rusans is targeted toward the hip nashville scene. so, i am sorry if the music was too loud this ain't your grandparents house. deal with it. my boyfriend and friends LOVE it here. we dance while we eat, haha and if you sit at the bar and are nice and friendly to the chef they even give you free appetizers or dessert! this place is also right next to urban so after eating i usually shop. it's heaven. i love rusan's. :)
Pros: brilliant, cheap, amazing sushi! free parking!
Cons: nothing!

Ken's, by far, is one of the best sushi places in Nashville ? and one of the cheapest. The philly roll is the best I've had anywhere ? the perfect potion of cream cheese and salmon. They also have red bean ice cream, which is dee-lish! The staff is always very nice and they recently went smoke-free.
Pros: Great, cheap sushi
Cons: It's your average dive restaurant.

This is one of the few places you can go near here and not end up paying premium prices for so-so food. The food is good, and there is a great variety of multi course meals for under $10. The service is not very good. They won't refill you glass unless you specifically ask. The prices on the food and the presentation make me give it 5 stars anyway.
Pros: great food, great price
Cons: service

I don't eat raw fish at all but strangely enough they have a veggie roll the New York roll, and it is great. We are always served fast and we go here so often they even know what we're going to order before we open our mouths. The wait staff are friendly and very courteous and the owners are hilarious and nice. We didn't go in for a year because we had moved and when we came back it was like we never left they still remembered our orders and asked us how we were doing. Bento boxes are great and affordable anyone who gives this place below 4 stars is out of their mind and has no understanding of food.
Pros: good food, nice people.
Cons: a little small- can get annoying when the "saki bomb" crowd is dining at the same time you are.

I have lived all over the country and my boyfriend has lived in Japan and this is hands down the freshest sushi in Nashville. We have tried various other places including Virago and P.M. and while the other 2 offer more innovative rolls, it is more about the fluff and less about the fish. Ichiban also has an authentic Japanese cuisine and the waitstaff are very nice and helpful.
Pros: QUALITY, service
Cons: parking downtown

Honestly, having lived all over the world, this is the best most consistent japenese resteraunt in the city of Nashville. I do live downtown, so parking is not an issue for us, we walk every saturday to dine with Koto,
I have never had a bad roll or dinner there in the last year.....unlike the majority of places in this town (like "sushi" rolls at "grocery" stores) this place has the most fresh made to order sushi in town...my boyfriend loves eating the sushi here....i prefer rolls to fish....The staff is always friendly and provide stellar service...would recomend this place to anyone that likes good food, service and a friendly atmosphere!
Pros: Ambience, service, food, decor...etc

I used to go to Mikado with my family when I was younger but for no specific reason I never got a chance to make it out there as I would have liked to. I do specifically remember their ginger sauce that went on the salads. Since then, I always compare their sauce with other japanese restaurants and it just does not match up to Mikado's. I was recently asked to go there with a friend and it was like being back at home. Not only was the sauce just as I remembered but the food was beyond satisfaction, accompanied by a very reasonable tab for the quality of food. As far as service goes, I have worked in the restaurant business for a number of years therefore there are certain things I expect when I go out to eat. The service you recieve at a restaurant can make or break the place and I could not have been more satisfied. The chefs were hilarious, servers were friendly and not overbearing, bartender kept a great conversation going, and even the host was very polite and took great care of us. I feel bad for not coming back sooner, but I will definitely make up for it in the future. No complaints here!

The wait staff is friendly & helpful even when they are really busy. I love the soup, salads and Teriyaki Shimp combo meal. Lunch can be busy if you arrive between 12:30 and 1, but I've never had to wait too long. Love the atmosphere too.
Pros: The food here is consistently great. Love it!
Cons: What are the drawbacks?
