Ichiban Fish House - North York

I typically enjoy writing negative reviews in hopes of providing entertainment, but this time I am pleased to leave a positive review. This restaurant is fantastic. The food quality is outstanding and I visit frequently. It truly is an epic experience. I highly recommend giving it a try. This restaurant is a genuine Japanese gem, not a superficial imitation. It truly captures the essence of Japanese cuisine.

I tried my first sushi Bento box here and have come back many times since. The meal was worth the price, with most dishes tasting delicious. I particularly enjoyed the tempura and California roll. I highly recommend this restaurant.

The best value sushi in North York. I have tried many other sushi restaurants in the area, and they are either too expensive for the quality or have low-quality sushi.

We've dined here several times, each of which was satisfying. I think anytime you review a sushi place the vital importance of it should be the quality and freshness of the sushi itself and this place has it. I've read several reviews about people complaining about long waits for their food but if you order sushi and it arrives to your table quickly, I'd be concerned. The sushi here is always fresh and always flavorful. There is plenty of seating and the place is spacious. Service is good, as well.

I visited this restaurant tonight, as it is one of my go to places for consistent, reasonably priced, and fresh sushi and sashimi. This Ichiban is definitely better than the one at Empress Walk in terms of freshness, better cuts of sashimi, and environment. <br/ <br/ The restaurant serves a complimentary edamame appetizer dish to all patrons which I find is a nice touch. <br/ <br/ I ordered my comfort, super chirashi, which came great as expected. Large portion, good variety of fresh fish, and on a bed of delicious rice. My companion ordered the small boat which came with a good assortment of fish, generous cuts, and was to our liking. <br/ <br/ Overall, this place is always a consistent and delicious choice for Japanese food in North York. :
