I came here twice during my trip, & this place was great! The first time I came here was for the teppanyaki. The chef was enthusiastic, which made the experience great. The staff members were also friendly and attentive with their service. My favorite items would be the steak & the mini godzilla roll. The steak was juicy & soft, it felt like melting butter. The godzilla roll contained cheese, which made me curious & did not disappoint. I definitely would like to come back again! read more

Ichiban Japanese Restaurant - Mini Godzilla Roll - Japanese Near Me - Lansing, Kansas

First let me say- we are the folks who wont send back a messed up order at a place bc we hate to waste food. Sent husband today to get sushi bc we're in the middle of moving house. He went to ichiban bc he wanted "better than gas station sushi". Second time giving this place a chance- BIG mistake! First time food was mediocre: soggy tempura and so-so sushi, but chicken tempura was passable. THIS time- omg, can I give a negative star? Chicken tempura was tasteless chicken chunks on a bed of brown gravy with ONIONS!!! Rice had a strange aftertaste and sushi was less than stellar. We had it takeout or we would have sent it back to the kitchen and demanded a refund! BROWN GRAVY with LOADS of ONIONS!!! We barely ate any of the food, it was so bad! Never again. read more

I unfortunately totally forgot to take a picture of my sushi - the most important part! The miso soup is delicious, and I LOVED their spicy crab and shrimp tempura rolls! They are always so kind here, and quick service! The hibachi grill here is so fun; I can't express enough how kind the staff is! :) read more

We went to this restaurant a few times and really enjoyed the service and the great tasting food. The hibachi plates at the restaurant are all great but we mostly enjoyed the sushi rolls. As far as the Hibachi Grill side, our kids loved it and the staff were very friendly. It is a great place to unwind and enjoy dinner with friends or the family. read more

I have only eaten here once - but from what I remember, I liked it. Traveling to Ft Leavenworth quarterly, you find yourself often driving to KCMO for dinner. There just is not a lot going on (dinner wise) in Lansing-Leavenworth. Fortunately, I found this little sushi spot. It is a pretty common "westernized" sushi place. But that's ok, because I'm a western fella. The service was fine; no issues there and nothing to report (negative or positive). The ambiance was decent. Again, a very typical westernized weapon of a Japanese sushi place with very heavy Korean influences, and I think I even saw some Thai options? The menu looks like the establishment-just everything Asian lol. But again, I don't mind. As long as it's all clean and sanitized and it was. I enjoyed the food. I always like a good old Philly Role, Spicy Tuna and all that. Add cheese wonton on the side? I'm sold. For a landlocked location like Lansing Kansas, I felt like the sashimi was as surprisingly fresh. I mean, it wasn't sitting on the rocks in Osaka kinda fresh... but it was surprisingly fresh and good for being in Kansas. Good for them! That's a whole star right there! I have to travel to the Army Post here frequently, and I think I'll be back next time I go. It's decent sushi, and 1 mile from the hotel, as opposed to 30 minutes to anything in KCMO. read more

Excellent, fun experience. They were very good to work with food allergies. We had younger children and the chef really played and "toned down" the parts where they may be scared by. A great experience. Prices were very reasonable for the amount of food served. read more

Was In town for training and decided to stop by here with the people I was training with. They start with salad and soup. Both were on par with the good hibachi restaurants back home. I ordered the steak and calamari, and it came rare, which is how I ordered it. The presentation was top notch as well. Overall great experience and dinner. read more

Move the couch from the lobby that appears to be someone's bed after hours. It was very off-putting.

I've done take out from this place multiple times and it's always really great. They give You more than enough food for what you pay for and it's always really good! Their sushi is also very great! read more

Vibes were good upon entry, I simply got takeout & it was pretty valid. The woman who gave me my food was super sweet & apologetic about the wait! read more

Not one to go out of my way to review but my take out was repulsive. I'm fat and I still would rather go hungry than eat this. Hibachi chicken tastes like they boiled the chicken and then took watered down sauce and put it in the box. Veggies with this tasted raw and flavorless. Fried rice is a flavor combination of pepper, soy sauce, and MORE pepper. My soup tasted like a 4:1 ratio of water to soy sauce with slivers of mushroom. My husband said the sushi at the grocery store tastes better and is presented better than what we received If you just moved here, don't bother. The food was so bad, I'm now curious if the store has other businesses in the back keeping it open read more

Came from out of town for work and needed a place to eat lunch. Made 4 take out orders. 3 of 4 were wrong and had very small portions. One order was so covered in pepper it could not be eaten. Another received the order incorrectly and had to return the food for corrections. Another 20 mins there and back! For the price paid, this was not worth the time or money. Quality and taste below average....Go elsewhere! read more

Filthy and unclean. Rude and slow service. The sushi tasted like cleaning chemicals. I ate one piece and gagged because of it. They still tried to charge me for the roll. This place is truly awful. read more

Japanese steakhouse with hibachi grills, entertaining chefs, and great food. Feel free to sit around the hibachi grills or in the regular dining area and enjoy everything from freshly prepared steak to sushi. The service is generally excellent and the prices are more than fair based on porrtion size. Make sure to take a second at the front to review their daily specials, personal favorite is the Volcano roll, and sit back and enjoy a sake. read more

Ichiban? How about ichiWRONG! Much better sushi options in Lansing. However, the hibachi guy seemed cool.

Service is always great. And food overall is good. But please tell the cooks to stop using so much pepper on the fried rice. I've had it twice and it's horrible. We will be back but will never order the fried rice againz read more

Always a favorite! Great prices for amazing sushi. Ordered lunch delivery it was Fantastic. read more

Ichiban Japanese Restaurant - a plate of food - Japanese Near Me - Lansing, Kansas

Great food and great staff. Try the mini Godzilla rolls. Owners are friendly and love the treatment we receive each time we dine!

Chicken hibachi tasted like it was boiled chicken with watery sauce and frozen vegetables that were heated in the microwave with the sauce poured over. Ate a few bites and told the waiter I couldn't eat it. They wouldn't even take the meal off my ticket because "I already ate some of it". Do not recommend read more

The food was very tasty. Great family atmosphere. Only reason for the 4 star and not 5 was we had ordered appetizers and sushi that we didn't receive until after our Habachi meal was done being cooked. Definitely would give them another try! read more

Yo! How have I not reviewed this place yet? My wife an I eat here all the time. I think it is because we crush this food before remember to get pics (which may or may not have happened this time as well) but man, this is a great little spot. The owner is fantastic and the food is great. By far the best sushi in town, and thus far, better than any sushi in the city as well. Not the best I have ever had, but definitely the best in or around this area. Prices are very reasonable and is a must have if you dig sushi. read more

We tried again. This place has been opened a few years now and I continue to be surprised it remains open. I ordered salmon and got a iron skillet full of onions and some thin salmon. The salmon was good; the pound of onions is a cheap space filler. Expect to spend a lot for a little. read more

My family loves this place! Can do sit down dinner or hibachi. Has extensive menu including lunch.

This is a great night out for people who enjoy sushi. We went here for a birthday, and just watching the dancing for a happy birthday was a hilarious add on to a great night. The food is great, the environment is really good and if you can mix good food with entertainment, you're going to have a good night. read more

The chef was great and made it a wonderful experience. Also my first time trying real sushi was from there and I was impressed. Overall I enjoyed the restaurant and prices are reasonable. I love their hibachi style fried rice and everything was great however, the only thing I personally didn't care for was how they cook their calamari. I love calamari but at Ichiban they cook it in tons of veggies and soak the calamari in soy and teriyaki sauce instead of tasting the true flavor of the calamari. read more

Did a take out order. Their online process is fantastic and user friendly. Ordered Hibachi Filet Mignon with some Gyoza. Every piece has gristle and fatty ends. A fillet should be clean cut with minimal fat. This tells me one of two things: either the meat quality is bad or they used our to go order to offload the meat they didn't want to use at the hibachi table. I would not order take out from here again. Salad and soup was adequate and the fried rice was also lacking from when I did dine in option. In their defense when we called and complained they did remake it. I will edit this post depending on their remake. 2stars EDIT: They remade the filet portion and it was much better. the first was clearly not their fillet upgrading to three stars. Meal was so-so overall. read more

Honestly the very BEST Hibachi I have ever had! The chef was so fun and exciting! He made my son's birthday very special!! I will definitely be going back soon! Everything was super clean as well.

Meh. The food itself was good. But I always associate a Japanese Steak House with yum yum sauce, theirs was mediocre.

Eaten here many times. It's our favorite in Lansing/LV! The food and hibachi is our delicious! The service is consistently excellent! Definitely worth a stop when in the area! read more
