One of the coolest things about watching Fairview grow over the years has been seeing places like…read moreIsshin become part of the town's identity. Growing up around here, you get used to chain restaurants being the main options, so having a genuinely good Japanese steakhouse and sushi restaurant right in the middle of Fairview still feels special to me. Isshin has honestly become one of those places that locals are proud to show off when friends or family come into town. What I love most about Isshin is that it doesn't feel like some rushed corporate hibachi chain. It has its own personality and atmosphere. From the moment you walk in, there's this calm, welcoming environment that makes it feel comfortable whether you're there for a casual lunch, dinner with family, or celebrating something special. The restaurant has been serving Fairview since around 2013, and you can tell they've built a loyal customer base over the years because people genuinely keep coming back. The food is honestly some of the best you'll find in the area. For a small town like Fairview, having fresh sushi, hibachi, ramen-style dishes, and Japanese cuisine done this well is something a lot of people probably take for granted. Their hibachi dinners are always filling and flavorful, and the portions are generous enough that you definitely leave satisfied. The steak and chicken hibachi are consistently good, and the fried rice somehow tastes better every single time I go. Another thing that deserves recognition is how reliable they are. Everybody in Fairview has those restaurants where you never really question whether the food will be good because it always is, and Isshin has become one of those places. Whether you dine in, order takeout, or grab delivery after a long day, the quality stays consistent. That's honestly one of the hardest things for restaurants to maintain, especially in growing towns where business gets busier every year. The staff has always been friendly in my experience, and you can tell they work hard to keep things moving smoothly even during rushes. There's a good balance between quick service and still making customers feel welcomed. It feels like one of those places where the employees genuinely care about the experience people have when they come in. Honestly, Isshin represents something bigger than just good food. It represents Fairview continuing to grow while still keeping that hometown feeling alive. Watching our town slowly become more developed over the years has been bittersweet at times, but businesses like Isshin make that growth feel positive. It's one of those places that gives Fairview character and makes people proud of where they're from. At this point, Isshin isn't just "the Japanese restaurant in town." It's become a local staple. Whether it's after church on Sunday, dinner after a football game, date nights, family celebrations, or just grabbing sushi with friends, this restaurant has become part of so many people's routines and memories in Fairview. Places like this are what turn a growing town into an actual community, and Fairview is lucky to have it.

A decent option if you're looking for a casual, family-style meal, but don't expect anything…read moreremarkable. The food is fairly plain and uninspired compared to other hibachi restaurants in the area -- I'd place it on the lower end of the spectrum. Worth noting: there are no cooks preparing your food in front of you at the table. Your order is simply brought out to you. One thing that stood out negatively: when placing a takeout order, I was charged $4 for extra Yum Yum sauce. That felt excessive and a bit off-putting for what is typically a complimentary condiment. Overall, it's a mediocre dining experience. Since dining options in Fairview are limited, it may be your best bet if you're looking for something close to home -- but if you're willing to make the drive, there are better hibachi restaurants worth seeking out.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

We have ordered food from here on many occasions and have been satisfied with the flavor. However, this time, the food was less than desirable. Every dish lacked any flavor. Also, the General Tso's Chicken was over cooked. One previous time, they shorted us the Pork Egg Rolls that were ordered and paid for. If we try it again and are disappointed again, it will be 3 strikes and you are out. Sorry, you seem Iike a nice family, but you need to put some more zing in the food. Ambiance-oh no, you pick up only.

They have a…read morepretty large buffet with lots of options even great for those who might be a little on the picky eating side or bringing children. My family and I especially like to go whenever we have people visit especially from out of the country because of all of the variety. Outside of the regular buffet they also have sushi and freshly made hibachi available. It's all great for individuals or to even get some things to share like my family likes to. The restaurant is pretty big and has a few areas which can make it great for having parties. My family had a birthday party for my mom there and it was a great venue for it. Parking is super easy with a big lot right out front. Also just a shout out to Annie since she's always so great whenever we go.

However, the food was not good. The sauces seemed to be made from pork and beans sauce (yuck). Imagine biting into bourbon chicken or any chicken, for that matter, and have it taste like pork and beans. Beyond that, everything else lacked taste. Best of luck to this establishment, but I'll never go back.

We are celebrating a special occasion and felt so great choosing this place as a night to celebrate. We curated our own menu based on reviews online. We went with the scallion pancake, the shrimp fried rice, the baby back ribs, the smashed cucumbers, the bok choy, and mapo tofu as well as ice milk for dessert and a tequila cocktail. As you can see the presentation of all dishes were beautiful. The highlights included the shrimp fried rice with a savory rice and a great amount of shrimp, the yellowtail yusheng with a wasabi base that was absolutely delightful and the baby back ribs that fell off the bone and you wanted to savor every last bite. The ice milk for dessert was the move as it was nice and light to finish off a heavy dinner. We definitely will be back again for the ribs and vibes. Thank you for a special night Choy!

They boxed our food up and I love that there's a "coat check" for the boxed food. We came here to celebrate and they for sure celebrated us! And even let us try this drink at the end. The welcome drink was some unsweetened fruit (passion fruit and green tea?) tea and it was so refreshing, I asked for more! I also got the magic dragon cocktail that was really good. Peking duck: worth the hour wait! I appreciated our server explaining that this isn't the Beijing style Peking duck, but the duck was prepared for over a week and it was perfectly smoked and the flavors were amazing. It came with some wraps, fresh vegetables, and hoisin sauce and pate to make the perfect combo. To make it even better, I wish they gave a few more of the wraps because there's definitely a lot more meat. Smashed cucumbers: it sounds so basic but this was probably one of our favorite dishes because it was tasty and so refreshing. That crispy tofu skin was chef's kiss for toppings. Yellow tail yusheng: beautifully plated and the fish was beyond fresh. We thought the mustard was just a tad too strong, but still a good dish. Xinjiang lamb lomein: great portion and flavorful dish. The ground lamb was tasty and great mixed with the lomein noodles For dessert, I got the sorghum mai lai go, which was interesting as they drizzle baiju on it. So grateful they do free parking validation at the garage next door!
