  “My favourite sushi place ever. You get really special options as a vegan that aren’t available elsewhere such as the vegan tuna which is my favourite. The owner is lovely and always goes over and above and pays attention to the little details. Always a good experience ordering with ichiban edinburgh. I highly recommend if you like sushi and especially if you are vegetarian vegan and even gluten free like I am.”

  “Ordered sushi on uber. Food came quick. Temaki had the tiniest sliver of salmon and was just a flavourless rice wrap. All the sushi rolls were just loaded full of rice with again tiny bits of salmon, poorly rolled. I should have known the food was going to be bare osteopathic boned when after placing a decent sized order, I asked for extra soy and they refused. But then again, even the soy was tasteless, like a salty syrup dilution with minimal depth or umami. I don’t even think the wasabi packed a punch. Won’t be ordering again. Don’t recommend. Advice to owners: your food is not cheap. Give good quality and quantity of food and learn to roll your sushi. Stop being greedy with customers.”

  “We dined in here last night and had Tonkatsudon and Eel Rice with a side of Takoyaki. These dishes were delicious and very good sized portions. The experience was really pleasant, the lady that greeted and served us is one of the most friendly and jolly people that I've encountered at a restaurant. It's a family run restaurant which is nice.”

  “Food was delicious, service was very friendly and was made to feel at home. Prices were very reasonable given quality and portion size, only downside was the toilet was dirty and in need of a little TLC. Would highly recommend Ichiban, and won't hesitate to go back next time I am in the area”

  “Before talking about any other aspect of the food, I 100% recommend people come to try the cheung fun (steamed rice noodles) and the lamb skewers!! Their Chinese menu is so good and we came out of our way from Manchester for this place. I came here on a recommendation from Chinese social media (red little book) for their Chinese menu and their steamed noodles. They have prawn, egg, beef, char siu, and corn options and we tried the prawn, beef and char siu. The steamed noodles are very soft and are made fresh for the order. They use a soy sauce with a special seasoning (I recommend asking about allergens if you have those) and it was genuinely the best steamed rice noodles I’ve had in the U.K. so far. The lamb skewers has a lovely taste with Chinese BBQ seasoning. The portions are generous and the taste was incredible, I recommend people to try this at least once if you’re in Edinburgh! The service was impeccable and our host was so friendly ❤️🫶”

  “Delicious food! We ordered the cheung fun (rice noodles) - one with prawn and one with beef and it was amazing. We also ordered the lamb cumin skewers, which were very juicy and well spiced. I believe the options we ordered were from the Chinese menu rather than the Japanese menu. The woman who provided our service was very lovely! Definitely recommend here for lunch!”

  “I was worried about the quality after reading all the comments, however my take away food was enjoyable. I ordered fried banana, fried rice, miso soup. All was really good. I olso had green Thai curry with prawns which wasn't that creamy, but it was okay and fried squid which became a bit soft during delivery time in the box. Overall was good, but defenetly I had better meal.”
