    I went to Bowling Green to visit my daughter at WKU. We were looking for a dinner place because we were starving. My daughter said she went to this restaurant before and loved it. The outside is not much to look at. But you can't judge a book by its cover. I ordered chicken and shrimp combination and my daughter ordered the spicy chicken. We also had California rolls as a appetizer. Everything was great. I actually liked the spicy chicken better than I liked my own food. The wait staff was adequate. I will definitely be back, but I think I will have takeout.

    My favorite place to get sushi while I lived in Bowling Green. It was only a 10 minute drive from my work so it was easy to grab something and go. The food is fresh and they give you big portions for how much you pay. Honestly I wish Ichiban would just move to Louisville so I can keep coming here on a regular basis.

    I travel often. I've been here twice. Great meal! The sashimi salmon melted in my mouth. I highly recommend the Bowling Green roll! Great service and food. What else can one ask for??

    Takeout salmon and tuna roll. So much fish!

    Yeah so they were shut down for a few days a couple years back for flunking their health inspection. Eat there if you wants AIDS.

    One of the best restaurants I've ever had in my life. I had it two days ago. I had it yesterday and…read moreI'm about to have it again today. This is again one of the best food I've ever had in my life. I lived in Tennessee and I never miss stopping by when I visit Bowling Green, Kentucky. It is my home and I will never choose any other hibachi place other than this one. I recommend you go because if you don't, you were going to regret it. Also, they have the best Yum Yum sauce. My girlfriend actually left me because I was here so much.

    This was our first time at this restaurant. When we walked in the girl behind the counter, said…read more Would you like hibachi or bistro? I didn't know what she meant so I said I want sit over here by the bar. I didn't want to sit where they cook right in front of you and throw food at you. Anyway, we sat down and a waitress immediately came to our table to take a drink order. I asked if they had sweet and low and she affirmed yes so I got an unsweetened iced tea with lemon. My husband got a Sprite and my daughter got a Coke zero. She came back a bit later with our drinks and informed me that they did not have any sweet low in the whole restaurant and there was no lemon in my iced tea or with my iced tea. We weren't sure what we liked and the girl said the hibachi plates are really really good with the Yum Yum sauce. It's delicious. So my husband and I did the two for $50 and we got the hibachi steak and chicken which came with rice cooked vegetables, and noodle . My daughter got shrimp and scallops with asparagus on the side. My husband and my dinner came with soup and salad, and my daughters came with a huge salad. The waitress came back with my lemon for my drink and brought over our salads and soup. She then brought out my daughter salad. I had barely finished my soup and just started eating my salad when our entrées came out. I believe they came out way too fast, which is why there's a three star rating because I don't like dinners like that. You should let people have a chance to eat their soup and salad and then bring the food out. My husband never even touched his salad. In my opinion, the plates had too much food on them. They tasted OK. I don't think I would go back there for that kind of food. As you look at the pictures, you'll see what I mean. I sort of wish I would've got the bento box. My daughter's food looked way better. I wish I would've got that. The Yum Yum sauce? It was all right. At the end of the meal, my daughter asked us if she could have a piece of cheesecake and we said yes to go because we wanted to go home and the lady brought it out wrapped and when you see the picture of it that's slight sliver of cheesecake cost $10.. Our entire bill came to $134.05 . This isn't the kind of place. I don't think I would frequent. In other words, I wasn't impressed by the food, the service, or the ambience. Maybe a nice place to go have a drink as it was really dead and quiet by the bar.
