Over the years (10+) we go to this restaurant, we have noticed the thinning of the fish. It is still reasonable, but lack the fulfilling bite it use to have.
The black cod appetizer is commendable.
Considering I worked here and am a frequent customer myself, I can say I know this restaurant very well.
The food is fresh and tasty. From my experience working here, I've never had a complaint that the food was bad. I've tried pretty much everything on the menu, and there isn't really something I don't like. My favourite is the medium special (with maki, sushi and sashimi). If you're looking for rare delicacies, this might be the place for you!
I'll admit that service can be slower on the busy days. Whether the chef is preparing meals or waiters bringing your appetizers.. but it is not a ridiculous wait.
The atmosphere is small and cozy. If you come on a busy day, you might expect a line up at dinner time (since there are only 12 tables)!
Prices are also very reasonable. Less or equal to what you'll find at other japanese restaurants.
Overall, it's a great place to grab some fresh sushi!
At least once a week we would order Sushi Tray for lunch. Always very fresh. There's quite a few of Sushi around in Richmond Hill but this is definitely the best. I don't eat in as the place is very small, better to take out.
I went there because it had such a good rating on this site, but got what not I expected. This restaurant is EXTREMELY small, probably the smallest in my life. I stayed in the line like 10 minutes to be seated and looked like waiters didn't pay attention to me at all. Food was nothing special, nothing to die for or recommend..

We also order sushi rolls, ie. Ichiban, Dragon, Spicy Tuna are excellent. Sashimi are fresh.

i'v been worked here for 4 years..but now i'm in korea now temporarily..my boss taught me not only skill to make the food but also how to make the happiness to customer with food..When I go back Canada soon,,I'll make the happiness of purios food once again with my boss.
The best Sushi in the area, everything is made fresh once you order. The fish is not overwhelmed by a large serving of rice. The best prices as well!!!

If you would like to have good quiality, always fresh and not oversized/full of rise Sushi or Maki Rolls try Ichiban Fish House. We visit this restaurant for dinner/lunch at least twice a month, never were dissapointed in 4 years! It is a small, cozy restaurant, not fancy but very much recommended!
I go to this restaurant on a regular basis and have consistently had good service and food.
The lunch time is I think 11 - 3. So try and get there around 1:30 to avoid the lunch crowd.
