| - Ichiza how I missed thee.
This place has been open for some time now and I used to come here for their beef bowls. They were delicious! But I was not the foodie that I am today so I didn't see food the same way or care about all the great things they had to offer.
But now that I have Yelp on my side. I have discovered a new side to Ichiza. An amazingly delicious side. It seems as if they had a secret menu or something because most of the items that I saw pictures of on Yelp were not listed in the menu they provided. It must have been posted on their walls though, but I can't read all of it cause it was all over the place. And it was awkward when I was trying to read the items off the wall because people think I was staring awkwardly at them.
So I whipped out my phone and pulled up Yelp and ordered my food based off of pictures! Started off with the deep fried baby octopus, which I thought would have a dipping sauce but the server said the flavors is already in the octopus. And she was right! It was seasoned well and fried perfectly.
Then the Uni in Ponzu sauce. I love me some Uni! And it was yummy. Small little order, but it was worth it. Very fresh. And then the yellowtail tartar. The best! And for the price, soooo worth it. I'm not sure if I ate it properly though, it didn't seem easy to eat cleanly. Then there was the pork with shiso leaf (looked big in the picture was it was a small order and nothing special) and can't remember the other stuff I got. But definitely not disappointed in anything.
But the MAIN reason we chose Ichiza for our evening dining is for the Honey Toast! It was bigger than I thought. And we had green tea ice cream rather than vanilla. It was delicious. And I didn't have room to try their other desserts like the crepe or mochi that I wanted to. But I will be visiting often, so I will have many opportunities....
We arrived to dine around 10:15p and it was busy, but still a couple seats available. We sat at the bar right next to the server station so we saw all the food coming out. Yellowtail tartar is very popular, and for a good reason! Service was good for an asian place. They were quick.
Only thing is that I feel I am missing out on some other goodies because it isn't listed in the menu, but rather all the walls. But thank goodness for yelp! This isn't a fancy restaurant, but a cozy authentic Japanese place with good pricing.
Oh and since we sat at the bar, we got to see the sushi chef cut a whole fish into sushi. Interesting :)
We ordered about 6 items, and a dessert at it totaled $42 and soem change. And the honey toast was the priciest item, it was good... but dunno if it is worth it. We can make it at home for much cheaper!
