What Audrey A doesn't like about Sushi Ichi:
Fix your hours on grubhub. It would've been nice to know you couldn't fulfill my pickup order prior to my driving over there. Literally canceled my order as I was parking. View all feedback. What Byron Yoshida likes about Sushi Ichi:
We’ve been coming to Sushi Ichi over the past year now and it’s our favorite local sushi bar to visit. The fish is fresh and they have fish flown in from Japan for their omakase. Japanese owned and very low key. Not the typical Americanized sushi bar you’re probably accustomed to wish is a plus for me. To sit at the sushi bar you’ll need to make a reservation for omakase (chefs choice). Otherwise you’ll grab a table... View all feedback.

Sushi Ichi in Pasadena is a hidden gem that offers a truly authentic and high-quality sushi dining experience. Owned by Japanese chefs, this sushi bar serves fresh fish flown in from Japan, providing a true taste of traditional Japanese flavors. The omakase menu is a must-try, offering a chef's choice selection of the freshest fish available. The restaurant does not cater to Americanized sushi tastes, staying true to Japanese cuisine.

Great spot if you want to try various forms of sushi that are usually not available at conventionally owned sushi restaurants.

I've been looking for a new go-to sushi restaurant and I might have found the one! Sushi Ichi is located in a small quiet plaza in Pasadena.

I came here on a Thursday night and the restaurant was pretty emptyThere were maybe 7 or 8 tables and the sushi bar, so this place is pretty small.
