Ye's Ichiban has a very diverse menu but I stuck with sushi and tempura. Staff was super friendly and accommodating. Especially since I wanted more sweet potato for my tempura. I really love the tempura - it was nice and crispy and had a flavorful dip! The sushi was OK. The tuna on top was a little soft for my liking. But overall, it had good flavor and good combination of ingredients. I will probably come back and try something else on the menu, especially since it's in my neighborhood. read more

I've lived in this area for 20 years, my previous experience here was not good but that was when they had the hibachi experience open for diners. They still do hibachi just not prepared before you. My meal was DELICIOUS, the portions were appropriate and my sushi was fresh. I now dine at least once a week for dinner, I used to dine an another hibachi place off 6 & West Rd but the quality has GREATLY decreased. My last two meals were un-eatable, heavily buttered and no seasoning. Run over to Y'es Ichiban, they won't disappoint; unless you're looking for a hibachi experience. Then unfortunately, you'll have to go to that yucky place other another place. read more

Ye's Ichiban - Philly Roll, so delicious. Love it - Japanese Near Me - Houston, Texas

So not a Teppanyaki joint any longer. You can color me a little sad about that. Good: - server was very attentive (maybe a smidge too much so) & sweet - dragon picture was AWESOME - eggroll was a little greasy but hot & fresh - proteins were well cooked & seasoned Not so great: - salad dressing is a sugar BOMB - soup was unseasoned & lukewarm - avoid the sushi, wrong rice, wrong wrap, clunky - fried rice needed veg and seasoning $75 for 2, no cocktails, was a lot for mid level food. They could also use a good cleaning! read more

5/5 - A Hidden Gem in Copperfield! I've lived in the Copperfield area for over 15 years, passed by Yes! Ichiban Steakhouse and Sushi countless times, and I'm honestly kicking myself for not stopping by sooner. They've been here since around 2018, and this was my very first visit--definitely won't be the last. I ordered the New York Roll, spicy edamame, garlic edamame, and jasmine tea. Everything was phenomenal. The flavors were fresh, rich, and perfectly balanced--just incredibly satisfying all around. What truly made my experience exceptional was our server, Shelby. Her service was outstanding--warm, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Honestly, even if the food hadn't been as amazing as it was, I'd come back just for her service. She makes a huge difference in the atmosphere and experience here. This place is a true hidden gem. I will absolutely be back and will recommend it to everyone I know. Yes!

Ye's Ichiban - New York Roll, Garlic spycy edamame and Jasmine tea - Japanese Near Me - Houston, Texas

We stopped there for the 1st time this week and what a nice and delicious surprise! The staff is super friendly and very welcoming. We had the crab puffs for appetizers and it was very flavorful. For dinner we had the yakisoba and the combo hibachi. All delicious! And portions are very generous - yay for leftovers! We will definitely go back to try other dishes and the dessert. read more

The food has always been good at Ye's Ichiban and we highly recommend. This our go to place when we are not sure what we would like to eat.

Stopped by Monday evening around 6:40 PM and had a great experience. The crab puffs were outstanding, easily some of the best in the area and better than Toro. The hibachi New York steak portion was large and cooked well, and the shaggy dog roll was excellent. We also had the udon noodles and a haramaki spring roll, both were solid. Beer was cold and good, service was attentive, and everything came out in a timely manner. One thing that stood out was the cleanliness, definitely better than most Japanese restaurants. Overall, great quality food and service. I would highly recommend this place if you are planning a night out for dinner. read more

This place NO longer has the sit down hibachi grill like advertised in their pictures. Update your sh!#!!! That said - the food and service were amazing! I will be back. read more

Just visited Ye's Ichiban for the first time on a sushi craving, and my husband and I were SO impressed! The atmosphere was clean, beautiful, intimate, and cozy (despite the spacious size of the place). The sushi was really cheap AND really good, which is a WINNING combination! I had the Crunchy Roll and the California Roll, and my husband had the Philly Roll, the Scallop Nigiri, and the Yellowtail Nigiri. We would recommend all of them, and can't wait to come back and try more! And last but certainly not least, our server, Shelby, was very attentive, constantly coming by to see if we needed anything, quick to bring us what we asked for, and very friendly! We were very happy with Ye's, and will definitely be coming back! read more

I am happy to say that my experience at Ye's Ichiban yesterday was much better than my previous visit about a year ago. These five stars are well-deserved! Though the individual hibachi tables are no longer, the hibachi grill was open again (hibachi dishes are made in the kitchen), and the sushi chef was clearly on top of his game! My wife and I ordered the Beef Yakisoba, the hibachi combo with New York Strip and shrimp, and a King Lobster Roll. Everything was great, and the King Lobster Roll was spectacular! That could well be the best sushi I've had! The service was quick. The atmosphere was perfect for either a romantic date or a dinner with friends, and the staff were all quite helpful. Based on the other reviews I'm seeing, my experience isn't an uncommon one. This is definitely worth trying, especially if you live in NW Houston. read more

I've been coming here for years and it has never disappointed. I think most people may be scared away from a sushi spot like this because it's in a shopping center, but the quality fish is equivalent to your fine dining or upscale sushi restaurant. I've been to a lot of really nice sushi restaurants in Houston like Kata Robata, Kuu, Kaa, Noragami, Ume, MF, Nobu, and more. While all those restaurants are considered upper scale and have a different ambiance, the quality of fish is just as good and fresh at Yes Ichiban, but for a lower price. Service has always been seamless. read more

My coworkers and I recently started a tradition of trying a different restaurant every Wednesday, and 2 weeks ago I picked Ye's Ichiban! -- and it did not disappoint! From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with such warm and friendly service. The staff was incredibly attentive without being overbearing, always making sure we had everything we needed. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, making it the perfect place to relax and enjoy a meal together. Everything was spotless and well-kept, which made the experience even better. The food was absolutely delicious -- full of flavor and beautifully presented. Overall, it was a 10/10 experience for all of us, and we're already looking forward to going back again soon! read more

Hands down one of the best dining experiences I've had! The food was amazing, the ambience was perfect, and the service was top-notch. I'll definitely be back! read more

This is a great hibachi restaurant. They no longer cook the food in front of you since Covid. Steak, salmon and shrimp are all good options. We order from here 3-4 times a year. It is located at the back of the Copperfield Place subdivision in a shopping center off of 529 and Hwy 6. read more

Ye's Ichiban - Philadelphia Roll , Shaggy Dog Roll & Salmon Roll - Japanese Near Me - Houston, Texas

Food was good it was typical hibachi but there was a lot of pepper on my rice to the point I couldn't eat it all

I recently ordered several sets of sushi rolls at this place, hoping for a satisfying sushi dinner experience, but unfortunately, my expectations weren't met. While the staff was friendly and the ambiance inviting, the food left much to be desired. The rolls had a mushy texture that made them difficult to enjoy, and the rice was noticeably overcooked and bland, detracting from the overall flavor and presentation. Most disappointingly, some of the seafood seemed to be substituted with lower-quality or unidentifiable ingredients, which felt misleading for a sushi establishment. When I returned two sets of rolls to the restaurant and explained the problem, the manager said it was how most customers like sushi. Really? They should try sushi at other places to see what real, professionally made sushi tastes and looks like. What is even more discouraging, in response to my 1-star review on Google, the manager of Y'es Itchiban called me "a disrespectful and rude customer". Frankly, what I find truly disrespectful is trying to pass off subpar ingredients as authentic sushi. I appreciate the effort that goes into running a restaurant, but I believe there's significant room for improvement in the quality and authenticity of the dishes. read more

Visited during lunch time with my coworkers, we all agreed that the place is nice and not too loud or quiet. Hibachi side is closed but it's no big deal, we just sat at the tables and the chances of someone bumping into your chair are low as the space between tables is very spacious. Food was really good, I had the fried rice with steak, it was a pretty big portion. The side salad dressing is pretty good too. Our waitress was very nice and attentive for the amount of table she had at the time. We didn't have any issues while paying either, tips were included on the final receipt, with option to leave additional if you wanted to, otherwise you just sign and go, no math needed this time. Price is very reasonable for the amount of food and taste. I'd be happy to pay it again cause it was delicious My photos are just me telling my husband I wasn't gonna be able to finish the meal and he should come by my job and see me and take this food cause I always want to feed him. Overall, we'll be coming back! ... to try out what my coworkers ordered read more

I love this place so much. I moved to the area about a year ago and sushi was one place I frequented in my last area. The staff is so kind. The food's really good. They have a number of drink options, cocktails, and mocktails. They have a good dining area space they have a bar you can sit at. They have booth and tables and chairs.

Ye's Ichiban - House Combo Fried Rice Plate - Japanese Near Me - Houston, Texas

Passionate family owned restaurant. Food is always fresh and service is amazing! 10/10

I visited this restaurant for lunch, and the overall experience was lackluster. The food was okay. The hibachi entree was too salty and oily. I ordered the shrimp and calamari combo, and the meat came out drowning in oil. The fried rice tasted more like soy sauce than actual eggy fried rice. The soft shell crab was decent. The hand rolls were big but loaded with rice rather than the filling. My server was nice and accommodating. The restaurant needs to be cleaned better. The "clean" table was grimy and when I placed my menu on the table, a big spot of sauce in the corner that went unnoticed during the cleaning got onto the menu and spread everywhere. read more

If you are in the area make sure you stop by and give yourself a treat. Remember....Life is Short...Get In....Get Out....Enjoy read more

My boyfriend and I love coming here. I love their shaggy dog rolls, and their yaki udon with chicken is amazing. I get mine spicy and they never disappoint. My boyfriend gets the salmon roll and Alaska roll and he says it's great. Their prices are good too compared to other sushi restaurants in our area. How this place isn't constantly packed is beyond me. I like that the restaurants not decorated in over done cliche "Japanese" themed items too. read more
