Last night my wife, daughter and I went to Ichiban to celebrate my daughter's birthday. We have been enjoying hibachi places since the 1970s (when we went to a Benihanas) and this was one of our best experiences!
The service was good, the chef (Jet) was great and the food was fabulous! I was also impressed with the prices ... for instance, fried rice/noodles were included with the hibachi meal, whereas we have had to pay extra at other spots.
My daughter got Steak & Chicken, my wife got Chicken & Scallops ($20 each) and I "splurged" with Filet Mignon & Scallops ($23!). I think my Filet was done better than any place I have ever had it ... it was juicy and tender and done 'just right!'. Of course, after we all ate, we had to have 3 boxes to take home what we couldn't finish. Did I mention it's a bargain?
We tried an appetizer (Chicken Tatsuga age) which was a first for us. It was very good. We also had a dessert that was new to us (Mochi); it was fantastic! Three different types of ice cream (we chose green tea, vanilla and mango ... yum!).
I can't stress enough how great the atmosphere and attitude of the employees were.
We will most definitely be back .... often!!!
