Although we wish that they had a bar, but the food definitely made up for that the rolls that we got were so delicious. The food was super good. We would definitely be coming back!

On our road trip to South Carolina, my wife and kids needed a place to stop to stretch our legs and…read morefill our bellies. Reviews of local restaurants in Point Pleasant, WV mentioned this Japanese restaurant, and since the kids love noodles we decided it would be a safe bet. Well I'm happy to say this decision paid off because Ichiban did not disappoint. Between the rice, noodles, and the wonton (which is Chinese of course) I can say we didn't have one thing here that was not delicious. All the animal proteins, especially the filet mignon, were perfectly seasoned. Mind you it's no different from other hibachi style restaurants such as a Benihana, but I was not expecting to find this type of food in these parts. Our waitress was also very sweet and attentive to our needs, especially with having two little kids to travel with. The only negative thing I'll say is the soup is really not good. Absolutely zero flavor whatsoever.

Lots of parking in strip center lot. Service was courteous and prompt. Portion was good size. Everything tasted a bit bland to me today. Still good, but, not exciting. Family, or anyone friendly.

Looks to be doing half dine-in and half carry-out business. I stayed, and table service was better than I expected, considering they had a steady stream of customers coming and going (and sometimes staying to eat.) And the food was better than I expected. Not the best hibachi ever, but way better than I thought it would be here. I did pass on the sushi- Circleville stripmall sushi was not appealing. But with hibachi in the name I figured that was their specialty, and it was pretty darn good. I got steak and chicken, and there was plenty of each, tender and flavorful, cooked to order (I got the steak medium; a carryout customer got hers "well well well well done.") Comes with a salad that was surprisingly good, though I think that's the first time I've had Bac-os in decades. Also miso soup, and a "side" of veggies on top of the entree. Lots of pretty good fried rice, good portions of meat and veggies. The chicken was cooked in sauce, and a bowl of yum yum came out for the steak. Not enough for leftovers, but plenty to fill me all the way up for supper. Reasonably priced for what it is. If I lived in town I'd come once in awhile. They also have ramen. Staff were super friendly and helpful, and efficient. Parking is in a busy strip; looked like bigger lots at either end.

Athens is a college town and the restaurants on Court Street, the main drag through town where…read moreuniversity and town come together, primarily cater to those 18-22. It means there are burritos and pizza galore. And fast Asian. Mr. Hibachi is in that tradition and they are efficient in part by having a veritable army of folks working quickly to keep up with a brisk takeaway business. There are dining-in options but that isn't their primary focus. If you do want to eat in, there are 3 tables in the busy front section that can accommodate 4 or five folks. Then there is a string of high tops for 2 that run down the length of the skinny store. So we mostly do take-out drawing on both the straight forward sushi options or hibachi options. Lots of both with no big surprises. But portions are generous and prices reasonable. Favs in my family are the shrimp hibachi that you can substitute lo mien noodles for white or fried rice for a small mark up. I'm partial to the sashimi combo that won't be confused for high end fish but the slices are thick and the dish is filling and a good deal since it is under $20 and comes with miso and a generous fried rice portion. If you get a big order ie 2 bags instead of one for takeaway, be sure to check your order and make sure you have both bags. They have a lot of orders to fill so a couple of times I wasn't paying attention and left without one of the bags. In one case I did get a call quickly from the store asking me to come back and pick it up. A couple times there was a missing side (yum yum sauce for the hibachi) or side of fried rice. So as always, can't hurt to check to make sure everything is there. One final feature to point out. I really like the ability to order online for and choose a later time for pickup. This approach works well for bringing home dinner right after class or a workout. Given how busy they can get when the students are in town, this feature is often wise to use.

I also got the Spicy Girl roll and loved it. Plenty of tables to grab a seat, if you're looking to eat there. I'm kinda craving it now after writing this so I'll be going back soon for sure!

They do feature lots of specific Chinese dishes as well but rarely do you see someone eating these in the dinning area which almost always has room. They are organized and quick with the rare exception of big sushi orders coming in at once. And the pick three sushi rolls is a common and my go-to order. Eel avocado, fried sweet potato, and peanut avocado is my eclectic mix of choice (picture below). Dining companions who opt for the bowls often get a lid and take home leftovers (or they should). And hot tip - pay with cash and get a free fountain drink! It is located right in the middle of Court Street, the main drag for Athens. Parking isn't always available right in front at meters but the parking garage is a block away. They do quite a bit of delivery business as well.
