    I tried their Tokyo roll which I regrettably have to say was not good and I would recommend skipping - it's completely fried which I didn't realize, but the flavor inside is not very good either. My friends all loved this place though, so I trust it's good and would come back to try something different

    Super fresh and delicious Japanese food! The atmosphere is great, there's even a backyard, and the staff are so friendly. Perfect for dine-in or takeout -- highly recommend!

    Randomly strolling around Brooklyn on a cold day led my friends and I to Sapporo Ichiban. We were a group of around 6-7 and they seated us instantly. The service was good and fast. I ordered a ramen and it was delicious. Can't complain too much but also nothing super outstanding or groundbreaking.

    My monthly order from Sapporo Ichiban, at 622 Manhattan Avenue, Rick shrimp, Kani salads, Pork Katsu, California & spicy crab rolls,

    The food is delicious & filling , it came quickly and was packed good . I always order 4 Kani salads, they are so good.

    This place is UNBELIEVABLE!!! Once as a Greenpoint local I dined here 3 days per week, and now I drive here from Connecticut because I love their sushi so much. I have been a customer here since their opening day. Portions are very generous, sushi is top notch very fresh it melts in your mouth. I can keep typing my compliment but it would be better if you just stoped in, and you'll know what I'm talking about. Owner is always there to oversee and make sure that your experience is one that makes you come back,

    Got takeout for a nice dinner and food was just okay. Service was fast when I was waiting and the inside of the place looks great. A lot of people got sushi so maybe that's where I went wrong. Dont get me wrong, food was fine just nothing to rave about.

    I usually have lower expectations for vegetarian ramen, but this was quite delicious. The broth was flavorful and the toppings were nice and varied. The menma was especially good. Pleasantly surprised by the quantity as well. I added tofu for $2 thinking this wouldn't fill me up, but it ended up being totally unnecessary. I walked away from the meal stuffed. Also loved the pleasant ambience in the backyard patio. Can't speak to any of the sushi, but for vegetarian ramen I'd definitely recommend it.

    My lunch date and I were impressed how much food we got during the lunch special, it's a great deal and their variety was tasty. Very well decorated inside, cozy spot. The staff were quick and very attentive.

    Great service, cucumber lemon water, moist towelette, good variety of rolls. Awesome neighborhood spot! Haven't gotten the lunch special yet but it looks like a great value. Cute decor too! A date night staple for us.

    I ordered out from Sapporo Ichiban because I could not go out. Food came faster than I expected. I went to eat at the place long time ago and other than that I only got deliveries. About the quality of fishes, the price should be lower than this, but I understand the cost of living in Greenpoint, so I look over it. My order was..... - Shoyu Ramen: broth with braised pork belly, egg, shredded, wood-ear mushroom, bamboo shoots and fish cakes. 6/10 - Mixed Seafood Salad: Shrimp, Octopus, Squid, Kani with spring mix. 6/10 - Manhattan Roll: Spicy crunchy salmon roll, tuna, salmon and avocado on top. 6/10 - Tuna Jalapeno Roll: Small 8 pcs 8/10 - Bonzai Tree: Crab avocado, caviar, ebi wrapped with cucumber. 7/10 The score I gave are quality/price/and taste. I can say if you want to eat take out quality sushi in a budget, Sapporo will be another choice that isn't too bad.

    I've been to Sapporo Ichiban a few times and have consistently had a solid experience. The sushi is fresh and the rice is the right consistency, temperature, and flavor (sometimes the nigiri pieces have a bit too much rice for my preference, but it's generally fine). The servers are friendly and attentive, and the ambiance is cute and relaxed. I also appreciate the unlimited house sake that they serve if you meet the minimum per person charge, which I believe is $15. Definitely an added bonus!

    I came here tonight after a networking event with 3 other people I just met at the event. We waited 49 minutes for all 4 people to get their food. We were desperately hungry by that point. Our event didn't serve food. We were here from 830 to at least 1040PM. Customers might want to clarify what "Free" sake means because each person spent over $20 at my table and it was only $15 to get free hot sake and we got none. 2.0 star food Fish that's not very fresh Ramen that's not very flavorful except the chili flakes Rice that's hard Salmon skin in salmon skin roll that's so burnt that it actually tastes bitter Pro: there was some potential especially with the varied (some might say overwhelming) menu 2.5 star price $4.95 to $6.95 for a hand roll is reasonable IF only they got my order correct $25.99 for a sashimi sample is also reasonable IF only the fish was fresh and didn't take 44 minutes to be given to us 1 star cleanliness Our table wasn't clean when we sat down Water glasses seem mucky The women's bathroom toilet leaks so the floor is wet with some unknown liquid and I was wearing a maxi dress. I judge cleanliness according to how likely I would use the restroom. 0 star service We waited 49 minutes for our food. 40 minutes after waiting, the ramen came out. 44 minutes after waiting, the sashimi came out. 49 minutes after waiting, my friend's cut rolls came out. 49 minutes after waiting, I got 4 cut rolls when I actually ordered 4 rolls. WORSE part: the server argued that I never said hand rolls when my table heard that I said it 2x. I was so hungry, I simply said "I will eat what I have." We served ourselves our own water (carafe dropped) and I cleaned my own spot at the table, so we tried our best to alleviate what is considered a "busy" Tuesday night. Dinner rush is over by 830PM and people who sat down after us got their food first--which makes this situation more frustrating.

    It was just ok, bc noodles were not too tasty tasted like too much egg. Bamboo shoots were canned tasting, but the broths was good. Sushi was just were ok too, not too much flavor in the sushi rice. Sodas were actually really good. Bathroom was a box, 3/5 experience.

My husband had the kaishin don, I had the Ozakaya donburi set and our girls shared the shoyu tonkatsu ramen. The fish was so incredibly fresh here and the rice was seasoned perfectly. My donburi set also came with dashi broth that the waitress later brought over to pour on top of the leftover rice in my bowl to be enjoyed at the end of the meal. The broth and rice combination was really comforting and satisfying. This dish was something I wanted to try in Japan but did not get a chance to experience when there, so I was excited to try it at Ozakaya. I was really pleasantly surprised by the ramen here as well. Although the pork could have been better/more tender, the broth was rich and seasoned so well and not too salty like other places. Last but not least, the service here was excellent and efficient.

I'd still give it a solid 9/10 and would definitely come back if I'm in the area again.

Service was quick and polite, we were there until 9:30 and they definitely seemed ready for us to be out of there before the 10PM closing time. As for the specialty rolls, there were some pretty creative options - don't shy away from seemingly odd combinations because the flavors really do work well together. I appreciated the rice:fish ratio on all the rolls, the rice was a thin layer letting the flavor of the other ingredients really come through. The plain spicy tuna roll on the other hand was filled with spicy tuna mixed with something crunchy - maybe puffed rice? It seemed to be an unnecessary filler, I would have preferred just fish. I enjoyed the Lovers Dream and Golden Sunset roll the most. While I was debating it while ordering, in hindsight I would definitely get two rolls per person, maybe more if you're really hungry.

I saw the strong Yelp reviews and decided to take the leap with a pickup order. We ordered two specialty rolls and a spicy tuna roll.

The Mystic Dragon roll was the standout for me-absolutely delicious. It had a variety of textures that gave it a great mouthfeel. I think this was my favorite of the three. All the flavors complemented each other beautifully. The strawberry sauce was unexpected but surprisingly worked! I love unique flavor combinations, and this one did not disappoint. The Torched King roll was also excellent. Salmon is my go-to for sushi, and the light torching gave it a subtle smoky flavor that I loved. The yuzu chili sauce added a nice kick--really flavorful and well-balanced. The Spicy Tuna roll was a classic and, of course, delicious. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place. I think I just found my new go-to sushi spot in the neighborhood!
