I recently dined at Ichiban Hibachi & Sushi and had an incredible experience from start to finish. The moment I walked in, I was greeted by a friendly and welcoming atmosphere that made me feel right at home. The restaurant was impeccably clean, which added to the overall enjoyment of my meal.

The highlight of the evening was undoubtedly the cook's performance. They brought not only their culinary skills but also a sense of fun and entertainment to the experience. Watching them skillfully prepare the food was truly captivating, and they engaged with guests in a delightful way that made the dining experience memorable.

Overall, Ichiban Hibachi & Sushi is a fantastic spot for anyone looking to enjoy delicious food in a vibrant setting with outstanding service. I highly recommend it and can't wait to visit again!

The good is good by itself but the hibachi was super entertaining! The salad dressing is SO good, the appetizers and entrees were amazing too. And all at very affordable prices. A whole meal is around $20

First me and my mom walked in the guy was on the phone and when he the person he was on the phone with on hold, he started talking to me and my mom then he told us to scen a QR code on a table so we did then, he seated the people behind us in line WHAT!!!!!???? anyways when we were seated the lady asked if we wanted drinks we said no.......tell me why this woman thought it way ok to slam our plates on the table. Then she asked us about 15 minutes later if we ordered.......we yes she said it didn't go through and we asked why she said, "oh I have an order but it's from a different table" we were like that's our order but we didn't know we had to scan the QR code on our table the dude on the phone didn't tell us anything

Wow!! This place is absolutely wonderful. I realize most Hibachi style restaurants are fun, but this place really goes the extra mile! The food and ingredients are really high quality here, and the chefs aren't just talented, but they are super attentive and friendly as well as the waitstaff and owner too. My sushi platter was superior!! Believe it or not, it isn't really that expensive either for the times. They really run a stellar operation here.

Sushi Experience №19

It is my third time visiting Ichiban since moving to DE in May. The atmosphere is decent, laid back and they play a lot of modern pop music and some oldies in between. The inside has kind of an older feel to it. They have hibachi and a sushi bar, along with other plates and a kid's menu. I have only gone for the Sushi, and it is also very decent for the price.

My first time was a Sunday night, and they had a half-off special on rolls, which was an unexpected plus. Our waiter was an older Asian man who was so kind, respectful and very attentive. I found out they had an all you can eat Sushi deal as well for about $25-$30 bucks depending on the time you visit.

My second visit I went during lunch time by myself and then the third time during dinner with a guest. Both times we did all you can eat sushi plus cocktails and soft drinks. Both times we were very mindful with how much was ordered to not waste any food and tipped. The Sushi was still decent, however, the service and attitude from the staff was very awkward. It was almost as if they didn't like that we were doing the deal. The service became very slow and there was a sense of annoyance that came from the waiter. It was the same women both times. The last two experiences were very strange.

I would definitely recommend trying the place, but I am not sure if I will visit again.

I want to like this place bc I been to Ichiban in the Bahamas and it was a top tier experience. They can’t be the same businesses- but the tiny portions this place gives for the big prices - I just can’t justify paying . And the customer service is more to be desired. The workers here really do not aim to please the customer.

As well as udon noodle soup with shrimp.
We shared the spring rolls.

They lost me as a customer.

I have been here many many time and have brought them a tremendous amount of business. Ownership is absent. Such a huge turnover of staff that makes you wonder. Management is problematic and everyone talks bad about each other. Management makes promises they don't keep.

They've lost me as a customer and quite a bit of business with me.

Fun place. I've already been here three times in short time they've been open. Food is always good and fun show. Going back again with small group later this week.

Decided to do a family trip for dinner here. The atmosphere was great BUT their whole set up is confusing. Some wanted all you can eat, others wanted to order a single dish, only to be told the table can either order from the menu or get all you can eat. We decided on all you can eat but we all have to scan a qrc code mixing up orders and creating a crazy amount of confusion and stress. Everyone’s sushi came on one plate 🤦🏽‍♀️ like it was just too hectic. Then to tell us the under 11 kids had to eat their fries and chicken tenders or they would charge us for them….. excuse me ?… smh. The food in general was great but allot unnecessarily went to waste. Hopefully they can figure out a different method

Every time we go here it’s always amazing!! We recently found out about the AYCE menu that they offer, and honestly for the price point it is the best in all of northern Delaware in my opinion. It has not been opened too long, but we have created a lot of memories here. From going with friends to have fun, with family, and for our weddings rehearsal dinner. They have always been amazing with service and food from day one! They are slightly understaffed and are working on getting more help, but even through that they deliver absolutely amazing service. The owners are so sweet and kind, and the staff is amazing as well! Can’t wait to go back again!!

My Family and I came in as a party of 6. They sat down and I sat at the bar alone to talk to a bartender about drinks. There was no bartender behind the bar and the staff for around 7 minutes walked around me not even acknowledging my presence until finally I had a enough and said something. That set the stage for an extremely annoyed night. The staff was nice but forgetful and the language Barrier was too much. Idk what happened from the 1st time I came here till now but the service needs to be upgraded significantly.

Absolutely LOVE Japanese food, but this has to rate as THE worse meal I ever had! The broccoli was way undercooked, the scallops were way undercooked, and although I ordered the filet mignon, it was the toughest piece of meat EVER-more like flank!! Would NOT recommend, and will NOT go back again!🤬

Sushi Experience №47

Ok, I'm actually surprised by this because this Wasn't my first time here. They're excellent service and good food is what brought me back. However, it saddens me to share my recent mother's Day experience.
I came with myself and my two boys. After waiting for a while, someone approached. Due to the wait, we gave our full order. Drinks, appetizers and entrees.

My two sons drinks came out in Styrofoam cups then after a while my jasmine tea came out Luke warm, close to cold...
Then my boys salad and Miso soup...
Then my oldest son's Bento box..... Then the check was dropped off.

I was confused as my youngest son and myself haven't even gotten our food yet.! That was discouraging. I also had ordered water that had been forgotten.. so I reminded my waitress and she brought me water.... Also in Styrofoam cups.

I didn't think anything of it until my son pointed out that we were the only ones with Styrofoam cups... But everyone else in the restaurant has glass cups. It just gave off the vibe that we were being rushed out.
Then we asked for Togo containers and she gave me a flat container for UDON SOUP 🤦🏾‍♀️

However, all of that I was going to overlook since she said they were busy and I have had good service prior. Even tho they didn't look too busy to me. The waitress switched out my container for a soup container. I poured in my soup and planned to eat it at work.

Today, I put the soup in the microwave. Pull off the lid and begin drinking the broth. To my surprise, there's a Gnat in the soup 🥺 This was my first time opening it since leaving the restaurant.

It'll be a while before I return to this establishment.. which again is saddening because I've had Great service there before.

The food was great, the people working here are all sooo nice, but it was really depressing to see this big fish in an empty tank (beside one plastic plant). I’d love to see him get some rocks, more plants, and things he can interact with. Super sad. But the food and people were great, I hope management sees this and can give this fish a better life.

We went to Ichiban for their all you can eat sushi. It’s not well advertised so we were surprised when we heard about it from a friend. It was delicious! Would absolutely return. Only feedback: the spicy rolls could definitely be made spicier, and the second round we ordered took a very very long time and we had to ask about it; it seems like they forgot or purposely slowed down the process. Either way, we would very happily eat here again!!

Everything about this place is top notch. The food is excellent, savory portions big enough for the biggest appetites, I should know Im a bit glutenous myself.

Horrible service. Took 30 mins to even get greeted and get a table. The guy up front (maybe a manager) was too busy taking pickup phone orders and doing everything else besides acknowledging the guests waiting for pickup orders and to be seated. He even went to the bar and made drinks and coffee at one point, also took hibachi orders. They need to hire someone to separate to greet people and seat them.

When we finally got seated, it took a while to get our order. The waitress said 10-20 mins for sushi... We ate our entire meal and 1 hr later, they hadn't even started so we cancelled the sushi. Everyone sitting looked miserable waiting for their food

Food was good and prices are cheaper but not worth the service

Food was awesome, went for a friend’s birthday dinner. Booking was made easy via Google assistant online so as soon as we walked in for our set reservation, our seats at the Hibachi table were ready. The food was a bit too saturated in soy sauce and it ruined the taste. Aside from that it was great 👍🏾!

The food here was really good, that is about the best part of the experience. Took forever to get seated, stood in a crowd of patrons whilst being passed by unattentive employees. There was no one at the front to greet us and when anyone was actually working behind the counter they were only answering phones. We booked ahead of time and still had to wait roughly 25 minutes to be seated. The ordering process was rather chaotic there was a lot of miscommunication across staff and my group. But the cook was great he put on an amazing show and the food was amazing!

We stopped in during the week for dinner to try the all you can eat sushi & hibachi. Staff was friendly but service was very slow and it seemed they only had one waitress. It took over 15 minutes sometimes to get the attention of someone to order when there were only 3 active tables. As for the food, it says "you can order anything off the menu as many times as you want" but some items are not available for all you can eat according to the waitress. They do not have separate menus and you won't know until you ask. If you order hibachi and get the fried rice, half the plate is rice. Not a scoop or a single serving, half a plate! If you waste food, you will be charged for it. That's understandable unless you give someone 2-3 servings of rice at once.

I spent 20 in total for a lunch bento and sushi roll plus tip and was overall good quality and pretty nice portions. It was a little startling when the lights suddenly went out and bright party lights started waving around and loud music played for someone's birthday at the grills. I will definitely go back again when I can.

The food at this restaurant is fantastic. The service to be seated or get a drink is extremely poor. Mainly because they seem to be understaffed but also cater to birthdays (like they must’ve song happy birthday to customers at least 10 times when we were there). The process of this includes the staff dressing up as different characters… my point is, maybe that same staff could be utilized bar.
If you sit at the bar to wait for your table, prepare to be ignored. You won’t get a drink.
Once you sit down, everything is great!

This is a solid place. The staff is very attentive and friendly, and the amount of food is decent. I got the steak and chicken dinner hibachi combo. The portion of steak was quite small. Roughly 3 ounces and one of my pieces was rubbery cartilage so I was a bit disappointed. The meal comes with a side of salad and soup which is nice. The salad is full of water. They need to dry the lettuce before adding dressing. The miso soup was delicious.

Mixed Experiences at this Restaurant

I recently dined at this restaurant and wanted to share my thoughts. Firstly, about the food: the sashimi was average. The salmon stood out as the better option, while some of the other items didn’t seem very fresh.

Regarding the service, I found it confusing. The restaurant advertises an all-you-can-eat option, but every time we tried to order, the waitstaff hesitated. They seemed unclear about what was included, directing us to a different scan only menu for the all-you-can-eat items, rather than the restaurant’s main menu. There was also a discrepancy between what was advertised as “anything from the menu” and what we were told we could order. This inconsistency was frustrating and needs to be clarified, whether it’s through better signage or staff training. If you can’t afford the all you can eat option, we can still order at the regular price as it shows in the menu. Please do not try all you can eat spot and make your customer feel awkward.

Lastly, the atmosphere was unique but had its downsides. The restaurant had several blackouts to spotlight birthday celebrations, which, while festive, were a bit disruptive.

The waiter was not the warm, welcoming vibe you'd expect when you're out for a meal. It felt kind of off and definitely didn't make me feel at home. Plus, they didn't tell me about the "all you can eat" deal. I only found out about it later, and when I asked if could switch, the waiter just shut me down. Told something like, "you can't change now. Maybe next time," but in a way that felt pretty dismissive. It was like they didn't really care.

1/20/23 update: amazing food.
I ordered take out again and picked up in the restaurant. My prior review was apparently the day they opened. This restaurant takes their reviews and customer feedback seriously and when I ordered the same hibachi shrimp lunch takeout, there were 3 times the shrimp.
It was so good we made a reservation for dinner and can't wait to try their food.
They do take reservations and I would highly recommend making one in advance. If you don't though - trust me when I say that their food and service are worth the wait!!

1/11/23: This was my first visit and they recently opened. I ordered lunch take out (L15 Hibachi shrimp) and it wasn't bad, but I do wish there were more shrimp and that they weren't as overcooked. That said - all new restaurants have kinks to work out and the staff could not have been kinder. I'm looking forward to going back, eating in person and seeing how it is.

We were their first customer of the day. Service was good. Food was ok, not the best. I think it's because they don't have enough customer yet. I could be wrong. We ordered sushi and sashimi and they were decent. They have all you can eat too but only on M-F. They also have hibachi grill but we didn't try it yesterday. Food presentation was good. Only complaint I have is they charged $2.95 per person for tea. IMO, an Asian restaurant shouldn't charge for tea.

We must have arrived during their quiet hour since there were plenty of seats to choose from. Our server(s) were very attentive, and the menu selections took multiple pages. The food was good, but the presentation was a bit sloppy. The acoustics were very live and a group enjoying hibachi behind us were very loud, I hope they enjoyed their meal as much as they enjoyed the preparation.

If you're in the mood for hibachi it's delicious. Try to go or order before 3 to get the lunch price.

This was our second time here. The staff was extremely kind and patient with our children. They (the owner?) gave out balloon swords each visit. One popped so they quickly and graciously made a new one. The food was extremely tasty (I had the filet). Hibachi includes a soup and salad along with two shrimp for appetizers, a side of mixed vegetables, noodles or fried rice, and many other surprises while the chef cooked up our meal -well worth the cost. We experienced a couple of birthdays while we ate- it looked like a really fun time! A few family members ordered the sushi for half off (all day Sundays). It looked impressive and they said it was good. Everyone in our party walked out in a happy and satisfied manner. The kids were very happy! Oh! And they gave my toddler a hi-chew since the mints were hard- we never even asked for it or made any comment over it. I thought that was a small, above and beyond little gesture and much appreciated. It’s the little things sometimes! Such a thoughtful establishment. Consider putting this one on your list to support for sure!

I can definitely say this was the worst experience I’ve ever had in my life at a restaurant. I came in with my family and we ordered off the all you can eat menu. It states if you don’t eat everything they will charge you for what you don’t eat, not a problem. I ordered a few things and at the end they brought out the rice. I tried it and it tasted awful to me, I never send things back. I advised I did not like it and the waiter took it back. The lady from the front who had been pleasant to us but rude to the staff proceeded to come out to the table with an attitude and question me about not liking the rice. I advised unfortunately I did not like it and she caught an attitude, threw the plate in the trash and stomped away. The other server brought us our bill. We went up to pay for it and the lady ran up to us after I gave him the money to state we needed to be charged another $5. She was just very rude and unprofessional. I also found out they don’t even let their wait staff keep the tips that we leave as customers. I would highly recommend staying away.

This is the best hibachi place I've been to locally. We went for a friends bday last night and they were so accommodating, friendly, and really fun!! They do a great bday song with some surprises that really had us cracking up! Drinks and food were very good and not crazy prices! Looking forward to going back!

It's fine as far as Hibachi steakhouses go. Unfortunately, during the performance I was not made aware that a clear liquid they were using to squirt into peoples' mouths was sake. I am extremely allergic to alcohol so I even though I didn't swallow any of it, I still got exceptionally sick.

Whoever said this place is 5stars is either fake, lying, or just don't have good taste buds. Never in my 33yrs I needed the food to be returned because it was trash. Normally I can still eat food even if it wasn't great, but not here. The house salad was pretty much a soup because the dressing was so darn watery. The honey hot chicken I ordered smelled terrible and had no flavor at all. I had to force myself to even try to like the dish. The fried rice was just awful. Fried rice is pretty much started tasting across other asain establishments, but this place it was unjoyable and tasted weird. Normally if you don't like a meal you can send back the dish and you don't pay for that meal. Here, because I ate two bites just to confirm if the food was trash or not I still had to pay. I shouldn't have to negotiate the check for trash food that 99% of it was still on the plate. So I say again, who in their right mind is giving this place 5stars because that is a hard no. Trash. I would not recommend this place. Save your palette and go to a place that actually has good food.

A little pricey compared to other Japanese restaurants around the area. It's okay though, considering the food tastes and the amount they serve. The atmosphere would be on the okay side, doesn't suck but could do better. The shrimp and sushi are great, but I was disappointed with the seaweed salad.

I can't say enough good things about this restaurant. When i called to reserve our party the hostess was so friendly. When we arrived we were seated within seconds and our server was so welcoming. Our hibachi chef was a riot! Kept the kids and adults laughing throughout the entire show. He showed a few tricks we have never even seen before. The food was spectacular! Half of our party ordered sushi and half ordered seafood hibachi. Everything was cooked and seasoned to perfection. The sushi was so fresh and the specialty rolls and salmon maki were delicious. To top it all off kids got a balloon sword at the end. It was so special to them that they considered it the best part of the night. Out of all the hibachi restaurants we've been to in Newark and Maryland this is, by far, our favorite and we will be returning customers for sure.

I went here for the first time today and I have to say it was an amazing experience. We sat at a regular booth just because it was our first time and don’t have much experience going to hibachi restaurants; so we were a little timid. We vowed that next time we come, if we enjoyed our time, that we would sit at the hibachi table. So next time we will be there! So much food for a great price. Staff is very attentive and friendly.

Food (mine was cooked!) was delicious. The fried rice was the very best I ever had and you get a large portion. Didn't try the sushi. My meal was a little over $17 it was teriyaki scallops that came with a salad, broth, and two different sauces for the rice plus a beverage (extra charge).

Great place to eat. Good quality food and the hibachi chefs give a good show. I've eaten there on two separate occasions, both of which I ordered from the hibachi emperor dinner combinations. The first time I ordered the seafood combo and the second time around, I had the filet mignon, chicken, and shrimp. Both of them came with soup, salad, grilled seasoned veggies, and fried rice. The house dressing for the salad is amazing... There is tons of food for what you pay. The building could use a little bit of work. Overall, I definitely recommend it!

Better than expected! We first pulled up and there was no one in the parking lot but us. We had a reservation and from the looks outside, the place seemed closed. However, once we stepped inside it was "better than expected". Soon after many other patrons showed up. The host was pleasant, but the waiter looked annoyed the entire time he was there to take our order and serve drinks. The chef was amazing, and we all had a great time. Food was wonderful and portions were more than expected. Overall, our experience was great and we will be back. Also, great setup for when someone has a birthday. It's better than the franchises.

very tasty, great value. I've been here for lunch take-out and dine-in dinner now, and was highly satisfied with both experiences. The fish was fresh, the tempura was crisp and light. Only quibble was that service was a little inconsistent and the dinner music was loud, but not so much as to detract from the experience.

Need six stars.
Absolutely amazing sushi. The tempura was equally outstanding.

Yes, the Hibachi side of the house was very loud, and conversation roared about the place at high volumes, but once the exquisite, gorgeously-plated sushi reached out table, all else faded to the background. It was just THAT good.

Ichiban Hibachi & Sushi has just replaced all my other local Japanese restaurants.

Prices are moderate, too. Six people were fully sated for under US$180. As in; we were replete and happy.
