Ichiban Sushi

we got takeout from ichiban sushi and it was delicious! generous portions and good food. it's a pretty typical sushi joint but awesome for food on the go.

Arriving in Toronto without researching but knowing that my partner and I wanted sushi badly. We pulled out the yellow pages and found the Ichiban sushi advert and went for it. Myself being a dubious soul thought "why do they need a full page ad in the yellow pages? Is this a last ditch attempt to get people in?!" How wrong was i when we arrived and we welcomed to a warm and inviting interior with kind and friendly staff.

The food that we had was excellent quality. We regularly have sushi and this was some of the best. The fish was very fresh and all the ingedients were top notch.

I have to say that that red dragon roll was spectacular.

We had a lovely meal in a nice place with music at a suitable level.

We went back again two days later and it was just as good if not better!

I've lived in Japan and I've lived in Vancouver for 10 years. Moving to Toronto was a sacrifice when it came to my love for sushi... until I found this place! The salmon sashimi is to die for - marbled and melts in your mouth! The owners and staff are very friendly. I've eaten at many sushi places around Toronto and unless you want to pay much more than it's worth you don't get the quality of fish and a pleasant experience like this one. The only bad review I've read about this place comes from someone who doesn't like to eat fish... don't go to a sushi restaurant if you don't like fish! If you like sushi - you've found a good place. Ichiban means #1 and it delivers!

This place is fantastic. I highly recommend it. One of the best value sushi restaurants in the city and I've done my T.O sushi research. The service is impeccable, the ambience great and servings incredibly generous. The sashimi is particularly good and 2-3 times the size of servings elsewhere.

P.S. Paul Shenton's review is hilarious. My suggestion is that if you don't like fish DON"T GO TO A SUSHI RESTAURANT. It's like going to an Italian place & complaining that their Greek food sucks. BTW, there are delicious non-fish options.

This place is great. It is the only sushi restaurant that I have found that has a brown rice option which I love. My kids love this place. The people are very nice and the food is great!

Great sushi compared to others in this area. I'm sure you can get cheaper, comparable meals in other parts of the city, but for the Beach, this is the best deal and best quality. Friendly staff, lots of freebies (like extra noodle soups, agadashi tofu at dinner). Great value for lunch specials.

A fantastic sushi restaurant. Freshest fish in the city. I have been here many many times. The owner and wait staff are very friendly. You always get two starters on the house (a noodle soup - TASTY and deep fried tofu - TASTY, with an orange to cleanse the palette after you meal)
The 1 rating that Paul gave is only an indication of how foolish people are and should in no way have been posted. I'm sure he would give a bad rating to a vegan restaurant for not having meat to offer non-vegan customers. And on top of that there are numerous menu items that are without fish... Udon soups, chicken or steak teriyaki, vegie tempura to name only a few.

This sushi place is the best sushi house on Queen Street. I personally do not like sushi but when i come here i have other stuff on the menu like tofu, beach kalibi, etc. I would definetly recommend this place. Also you get bonus stuff. (It's my favourite).

My boyfriend and I always go here as we are we live close by. This is great for us becuase we have not been to a better place than this one. I am still trying to figure out how to make that so-myun soup!!! The service is great, it's fast and you get served right away even if you are going for takeout. I saw some comments on there about not being served something that has no fish product... are you kidding me?...you are in a sushi place!!! But anyhow, it's great all around, and the prices, they're are not bad... just to go back to the "veggie's" comments, you're in the Beach, just in case you forgot, everything is a bit more expensive here, but for quality sushi, it's a bargain!

Everything was so fresh and delicious! They give you complementary agedashi tofu (which I don't normally like) but theirs is to DIE for. The ingredients really are the freshest I've ever had and the service was phenomenal. Also the breaded yakitori and chicken katsu are great you have to try them. Definitely a must go for sushi lovers in toronto!
