Very unfortunately on an extreme cold Tuesday night there was little or no heat in the seating. Albeit people still came and filled up the space. Might say that that shows people like it enough to bear the very cold eating experience. Mgmt apologized and stated there was a pipe issue that came up. Service was prompt and friendly. We only ordered rolls, not realizing there was a ramen special that night. Sushi was fresh and tasty, miso soup and salad were good portions. We rushed through meal as it was very cold to sit there and linger. BYOB.

I decide to do takeout since I don't want to wait for a seat and all the tables are for 2 and 4. The bar was taken up by 6 friends and they left 5 minutes after I ordered. No less than 2 minutes later, the bar had only two seats left! I'll say again, that's a good sign! When I got home to eat my Seaweed Salad and Paradise Roll, I understood why this business does well.

Tried the tan-tong which was just a blob of cream cheese in a wonton wrapper. Served with no sauce. Got a ginger salad, came warm and the dressing smelled off like it's been fermenting. And the California roll was worse than grocery store sushi. This place tastes like a fast food restaurant, and everything on the menu is just salmon and cream cheese.

In what appears to be a converted fast-food outlet, this Ichiban location along Rt 35 delivers a very entertaining, capable dinner that was probably drowned in MSG but who am I kidding, MSG tastes great. My Salmon was terrific with copious amounts of fried rice, Lo Mein and grilled vegetables riding shotgun. Compared to what I could have had "dining" at nearby Monmouth Racetrack, this was a meal fit for an Emperor. An easy five stars.

Standout appetizers included the seaweed salad, avocado cucumber roll (we split that as an app for the table) and the miso soup. I got the vegetarian hibachi! It was a bit too oily for my liking and I definitely needed to doctor it up with some hot sauce/ soy sauce, but it was solid for what it was. Perhaps next time I will try more sushi options or get hibachi fresh

Although I thought we'd see more of a show for dinner, the chef cooked everything well. I tasted the food not just sauce-spices. I really liked the tuna roll I got, also tasted very fresh.

It took forever to have our order taken, and while she was taking our order, she took a phone call. She could've brushed it off til we were done but she didn't. We each ordered a sushi roll to start off the meal and we each ordered a bowl of tonkatsu as our mains. My friend's sushi came out first, then our ramen, then my sushi roll. It didn't come out one after the other, they came out pretty spaced out. That annoyed me. The sushi rolls could've come out together. The ramen flavor was ok. The pork was not melt-in-your-mouth like most ramen pork. The egg was perfectly cooked. The noodles had perfect consistency. The broth was ok. The place has some age to it and only has a few tables. It does get busy so I guess it's good enough for the area.
