Food was great, fresh, and hot! Service was good, and it wasn't too busy. Wit will be coming back

I've come here a couple times, a bit inconsistent but I come here just for their weekend crab specials. The food comes well seasoned some days, some not but if you're eating unlimited crab it kind of doesn't mean much to you the workers are very attentive, service has never been an issue. Just expect a race for certain dishes read more

Food is good , never runs out of crabs Service - is ok , they attends to your needs right away Ambience is quite clean read more

This buffet came recommended by a friend. Honestly, never heard of it and I rarely go to this area near Hustler Casino. Arrived with a party of four and stood in front of the cashier until the hostess told us we pay after we eat. Nice... usually modern buffets require payment before service. The food here is what really sets this place apart from your regular Chinese-Japanese buffet: Price: Who else has buffet that includes snow crab legs and full size adult crabs for $23/pp? Makes you wonder how they even make money, considering their menu options. Food variety: best selection for the price point! Hands down. Sushi, sashimi, hand laddled beef and pork soup bowls, teppanyaki, snow crab legs, braised chicken feet, bao buns, salad bar, teriyaki chicken, your basic Chinese food steam table food--think orange chicken, fried rice, beef and broccoli, etc-- fried plantains, shrimp cooked so many ways, calamari, and seafood mixtos, ice cream cups, cakes, mousses, and so much more. The food definitely met the demographics of their customers. Seating: Booths or tables. Seating for two or a party of 20. Handicap accessible and all are welcome and provided same quality of service. Service: Attentive hostess and wait staff. Kept our cups full and our dirty plates off the table. Only downside are the restrooms. Like going into a nuclear war zone for the womens restroom. I made the unfortunate choice of using it before I ate, so that kinda did it for my appetite. My bf and his friends had the same feedback about the men's. Overall, I would go back a little more prepared. Wear my stretchy pants and tennis shoes. Those crabs go quickly. read more

Good- staff are friendly, Food- the food has to much Mayonaise on MUSCLES and BAKED CRAB MEAT, Crablegs are served cold, not much selection on meat, need to up thier fried rice, Orange chicken are to sticky, they do serve alot of shrimp, salad bar is good, dessert needs attention. Over all i have seen better but it is what it is when your hungry. Will i return? NOPE!! read more

It was a sister day out... we were carving some seafood and we had to come here.. food was fresh and plenty of it. All i had was the seafood and so worth it with the price. The servers were so quick in emptying our finished plates and refill our drinks which i really appreciated. This buffet is great for big and small families. They even have a banquet room for larger parties. read more

SO many good choices! Staff working hard to replenish drinks & pick up used plates. Attentive to say the least. Spacious. They have a banquet room. Crab legs were on the small side. 30+ minute wait on a Sunday afternoon. Lots of parking. The carpet in that place is questionable considering all the food that's involved & the foot traffic; (saw drippings from used plates, piled with food scraps falling on the carpet). But will go again though not in a rush to... read more

Ichiban Buffet - Variety on my 1st plate. Had 2 more after this! - Seafood Near Me - Gardena, California

A pretty good choice if you're specifically looking for a seafood/Asian buffet. Staff are friendly. Overall, it was a good buffet with a nice variety of food. The seafood and sushi were decent, and there were plenty of options to choose from. Some dishes were better than others, though, and the quality was just average. It's worth trying, especially if you want variety, but it's good--not the best buffet I've had read more

It was an amazing time here, and the food was good. I would come back. Great pricing as well

Ichiban Buffet - deliciousness awaits! - Seafood Near Me - Gardena, California

Ichiban Buffet exceeded my expectations! The food was fresh across the board, especially the crab, fish, sushi, and seafood. I also appreciated that nothing was overly salty, so you could really taste the quality of the ingredients. They have a huge variety of options, from sushi and seafood to hot dishes, salads, and desserts, so there's something for everyone. Everything I tried was delicious, and the buffet was well stocked throughout my visit. The restaurant was clean, the presentation was nice, and the atmosphere was welcoming. I don't go to buffets often, but I would come back to this one. read more

Ichiban Buffet - With their mascot - Seafood Near Me - Gardena, California

The service and food was great. Prices are good compared to other buffets. Will come again

This is please so wonderful buffet and very flash for sea foods. Please try for here.

Just for how affordable this buffet is I would suggest renting it out. Less than 25.00 a person for dinner with drink and desert, ice cream included if you eat it at the restaurant. Huge variety of food. Not the best tasting fare, but for the price, it's incredible. Efficient and no feills service. Bright space, mostly clean. Not sure carpet is the best choice for a restaurant that feeds that many people. Again give it a try and see if you like the food. read more

Spacious seating, mostly clean, food quality is like china buffet, baked seafood and ribeye were very high quality. They are quick to take your old plates away but if youre still working on your plate and you have more than 1 don't Keene it in the side cuz they'll just scoop it up as they walk by (not a good or bad thing) overall its an A tier buffet for South bay as there isn't much around here anymore read more

Ichiban Buffet - The most food I ever tasted in my life e - Seafood Near Me - Gardena, California

Crabs for like $22..I am in! Lol This was not lunch price. It was for dinner/weekend price. I have been here twice now. 2nd time was better than the first. I love crab legs...maybe even more than lobstaaa lol Most people came here for the price and the crabs These crab legs were pretty good in size. They even have stone crabs!! Oh so good... They also have these baked cheese head on shrimps that I really enjoyed. I ate like 8 or 9 of it lol The buffet had a sushi bar, Mongolian noodle station, salad bar, dessert bar and etc. I mostly ate the crabs, but most of the foods seemed decent. Wait time can be long. First time, I waited like an hour or so. 2nd time, the wait was a lot shorter. Drinks were refillable and it was prob $2 something only. Togo option: $9.99 per lb and $12.99 per lb if you want crabs. Big parking Service was ok. RR - clean read more

We had a wonderful experience here! The food was delicious, and every dish was fresh and full of flavor. The staff were friendly, attentive, and provided excellent service throughout our visit. The restaurant is spacious, clean, and comfortable, making it a great place for both families and groups. The prices are also very reasonable--lunch is only $16.99 and dinner is $22.99, which is an excellent value for the quality of the food and service. I highly recommend this restaurant and will definitely be coming back! read more

The worst experience I have ever had. I came to enjoy the food there and I have never been disrespected there in my life. I went to the front to let them know that the worker gave us our check way to early and we didn't get to enjoy the food and the worker in the front showed me is on camera and we were just wondering why they did that when it hasn't been 2 hours yet. And then I ask if we can just sit since we were still waiting and that we have disabilities and we take our time eating our food and that we were also waiting for our rides and they were still disrespectful. They were discriminating us becuase of where we are sitting and dressed. I explained that there was more people who were there before us eating still and they didn't say nothing to them and that's not right. read more

Ichiban Buffet - If it's $21.99 per person then they shouldn't demand more money out of their customers - Seafood Near Me - Gardena, California

Great variety of fresh, tasty food! Friendly service and a clean, welcoming atmosphere.

S loves buffets so this place was more of a curiosity for us to try. We figured for $17pp for weekday Mon-Fri lunch was a worth it gamble. The variety of food was stellar and they even have a teppanyaki grill. The main proteins available seemed like mostly chicken and seafood (shrimp, fish). Taste-wise, the food was average but honestly, for $17 (which certainly feels like the going rate for lunch nowadays), there isn't much to complain about. I sampled quite a bit of their sushi offerings and no one got sick afterwards, so that's a win. Service was friendly, the place was clean, and it was easy to split the bill. Parking was easy (large lot shared with Vons and other eateries). read more

Great crabs! They were very fat and tasty. Had a great birthday celebration for my son.

Service was great. Food is also delicious. Highly recommend eating here. Place was also clean.

Over all a good experience food seemed fresh flavor was good. They have a big variety what sets them apart from other buffets is the seafood they definitely have more. The service was excellent to they cleaned the tables an fast and refilled our drinks. I will definitely be back with my family read more

Seafood is always fresh. And you can never go wrong with price. Best buffet in South Bay !!

Delicious food its always packed waiting time is over 30 minutes today's service was crazy sodas were flat and when we told the waitress she snatched the cup out of my hand she has a bad day or something, but another waters made up for her by having a better attitude and making sure we were okay read more

It is a good buffet restaurant - staff is so friendly & there are many foods including Crab leg. It is about 35-4 minutes from Bolsa. We will come back read more

Good food , everything clean :) people nice, good price ........ everything gooood, come here

Great deal for lunch. Ate some decent food. $16.99. Clean and good service. Had sushi, chx etc.

Overall a predictably good experience for a buffet with a good diverse variety of food for lunch. Dinner has Snow Crab Legs and a mediocre tough cut of beef called a steak but Lunch is the best deal Cheaper for 7-10 year old kids and even cheaper for 3-6 with kids under 3, I assume is "Free" Staff here are friendly. The sushi is okay, no worst than what the supermarket sells for &10+, so if you just crave sushi, this might be the place to come to. The fish here is pretty good. read more
