Decided to have a la carte instead of the usual all you can eat. Food is prepared differently, but not as many selection when compared to all you can eat menu. Bit on the pricey side, but the food is fresh. Nice atmosphere and places for large groups.
The place was full for dinner and seems popular with people, none-the-less we got a seat right away. I liked the idea of Japanese and Thai AYCE, however we ordered mostly the more Japanese dishes. The Thai dishes looked fine, just looked a bit filling if you’re trying to sample the menu. The sushi and sashimi were great and the meat items were just as good. The service was quick and we got our orders quicker than most AYCE places. It is a bit pricey when you compare it to others so eat by value to get your money’s worth.
Looking for a top-notch AYCE in Vaughan? Well, look no further than ICHIKI. In case you'd like more than Japanese, it has Thai too. If you'd like to order at your own pace, they use tablet menus. And if you wish orders would all show up at your table, I'd say come here for a pleasant meal experience.We were more than happy to try their less common AYCE items such as the refreshing beef & butterfish tataki with ponzu sauce, and the smoky beef torched sushi. Their sashimi tasted fresh and pieces were cut in good size portions. Hot takoyaki balls, crispy coconut shrimps and satay chicken skewers were all on point so we got a second serving. Their grilled squid was fairly tender and flavorful too. Other typical items were on the menu, and we couldn't resist the desserts such as fried milk even after a full meal.Good thing we made a reservation because it was completely packed! Once seated, our service was attentive and expeditious in this modern looking restaurant. We didn't wait more than a few minutes before our dishes started to arrive steadily. It's true they charge a few bucks more than usual AYCE but we felt the meal was well worth it.ICHIKI offers decent Japanese & Thai fare. So how did a star go missing in this review? Our sushi rolls were a little sloppy but hopefully this was just an off-night. There were plenty of more exciting items to avoid filling ourselves on rice in rolls!
Not authentic Japanese cuisine. Food feels cheap, but at a high price. Ordered Pad Thai to start. Plate was completely saturated in sauce. No peanuts added, when asked server said they do not have such luxury. Tried Ramen but had a strange odor and cheap instant noodles. Finally got a sushi plate. Sushi was OK at best, but not what you'd expect from a place at this rating. Seems like this place used to be good pre pandemic but the new ownership is a sinking ship. Spend your hard earned dollars somewhere else.
It was good but had better sushi with dim sum included at other sushi restaurants. Bit on a rock that was in one of the seafood dishes, told employee and they didn't really care and just walked away.....
This is our go to sushi place for any occasion. The quality of their sushi is top notch. The service is fast and staff always courteous. The tataki salmon and steak is a must try. Yes it is a little more pricier than the other all you can eat sushi places but you get what you pay for. Can't beat the quality and variety
I used to come here every week but the quality has gone so far down hill. I have a very easy palette but even the food didn’t taste as good as it used too. I can tell they have cut corners which is understandable, but it had caused me to have an upset stomach later on that evening.Even with all of that, I still would of been okay had it not been for the extemely distasteful service that I was given. I didn’t do anything to upset this lady and we said thank you every single time she placed food down on our table. She chucks the plate on our table that makes a loud abrupt sound. She glared at us for no apparent reason and even when she puts away dishes into the bin, she just throws them in causing a ruckus. Servers can have bad days, I wholeheartedly understand, but you have to keep your personal matters at home and try to be professional in your job. If not, then call in sick and stay at home, otherwise don’t work in a customer service profession. My first ever review that I have ever give because of how upset this place caused me. I will advise all of my friends to not spend their hard earned money into this establishment.
Food was good, little on the pricy side. Wasn't too happy about "all-you-can-it" as the only option available. Maybe because it was Mother's day weekend. Overall good service, could work on cleanliness a little more. One of the orders had to be placed again as they somehow missed it. Busy place.
Really great place to go out with your family or friends! Absolutely love their sushi and how fast their service is! Super fresh and delicious! This is our go to place for all you can eat sushi. Everything is great but some of their staffs are really rude specially during the last hour before closing, other than that it’s a great place.
Typical AYCE service, nice decor, WICKED FAST service. Food came almost as soon as I pushed the send button.
