Ichika Izakaya

This sushi place is definitely one of the top sushi place in my list. I would say probably the second place on my list. It has the best quality for the price you paid. The omekasa is around $129 per person, but the food quality and services is comparable (or even better) to some michelin one star Omekasa places that charge you $200-300 per person. The sushi chef's service was great and warm, and the waiter was super friendly (disclaimer: I am a regular there, so my opinion on the services might be impartial). For the value, I am paying the best deal of omekasa. Of course, you probably can find top notch sushi out there but you probably can't find it for this price.

Better service and atmosphere than the original one!
I used to go the original one but not anymore because of long waiting time(1.25 hours) even though before 6pm.
I’m happy they have opened a branch. Will come back again though the prices are higher!

New izakaya. Currently a little hard to spot at night cuz their outside sign isn't up yet. Excellent food tho.

We ordered the king salmon nigiri, sake clams, kimchi bacon, corn fritters, chicken karaage, chawanmushi, and a few skewers. All the dishes were perfect in presentation and preparation.

My favorite were the corn fritters. They were light, crispy, and tender at the same time.

A bowl of rice would have been perfect with the kimchi bacon. It was very good and not spicy. Even my kids could eat it.

Ichika is a star hidden in an unassuming strip mall but it’s a higher price point than you’d expect at this location

Happened to pass by and find this place. With this less reviews, the food is amazingly good！Afterwards realized that because it was just open for 10 days. Agedashi tofu is both crispy enough and soft enough, with the perfect-balanced broth；the taste of Yakitori can rank in top 5 of my experience all over the United States, even comparing with Izakaya in LA or NY；grill oyster is recommended by the chef, I would say it‘s a must have, chubby and creamy and rich but not over flavored, bring out all the good side outta a huge oyster；Kani Chawanmushi has no difference with the taste in Michelin star restaurant. Not quite having much nigiri this time, will come by and try that part. Overall surprisingly awesome！
