    I was here after the new owners took over (April 14, 2011 I believe)
    We came for the 50% off deal
    The food was very good
    We had edamame to start and were also served complimentary miso soup
    We also ordered shrimp tempura - it was ok; my piece was half hollow, which was disappointing
    We had a few sushi pieces (the tuna sushi and salmon rose, which was very beautiful)
    The majority of our order was maki
    My favourite was the Bay roll (with deal fried scallops) - SO tasty, they put a peanut sauce or something in there and they also use a spicy mayo VERY tasty
    we also had the ichi roll - it has eel and avocado on the outside and shrimp and crab and other tasty items on the inside; this was also a hit
    The spider roll with soft shell crab was good as well; a little too fishy tasting for my liking
    We also have the salmon sushi pizza and it was very good and nicely presented
    The one disappointing thing is that they did not have the King Crab roll, which we were really looking forward to and also the roll with lobster in it; they said it is only seasonal
    Overally, great food
    it is a bit pricey so i suggest taking advantage of the 50% off offer (on until April 20th) - it works on everything but the lunch specials

    Ichiban Sushi House though is like a Franchise, this location in Vaughan does stand out from others I been to....

    Decoration is super chic and classy, not traditional Japanese!! Reminded me more of a Sake Bar than one of the Ichiban Sushi House I been to.

    Sushi Bento Box ($10.50)
    - So nicely presented... I can tell the kitchen staffs really took the time to make sure even a lunch special is up to certain standard
    - Though it is a Sushi Bento Box, the Tempura is the star! Lightly battered, freshly deep fried, crispy on the outside, oh so moist inside.. and that goes for the veggie too!!
    - The fish was fresh... and I really enjoyed the sushi
    - They did mess up with my order for Spicy roll and I got California roll instead... which I usually don't mind, but the way they made their Cali roll here was with a touch of mayo... way too much mayo for my liking...

    Services here is friendly and nice... The two Korean wait staffs make sure I have all I need and more...

    Trying to find a good sushi place near my work wasn't an easy task, but I'm pleased to say Ichiban Sushi came through. The Vegetable Maki Sushi set is around $12 dollars, but that comes with 18 pieces of sushi! (6pc Avocado, 6pc Sweet Potato and 6pc Mushroom), plus miso soup and a salad. Now I realize that's a little expensive for lunch, but a ton of delicious sushi isn't anything to scoff at either.

    I have had trouble ordering sometimes, so you have to be very precise and specific over the phone.  But they're really nice there and even if there is a mistake it's always corrected in no time flat.

    They also had a deal where if you ordered out and paid in cash you got 10% off, which is pretty great, I'm not sure if they're still doing that though.
    Anyway, it's not the greatest Sushi in the city, but if you live in the area it's a pretty good bet.
