| - First of all, thank you Yelpers! I never would have known about Ichiza if it weren't for your reviews! I didn't know such a place existed in Las Vegas! Last night was my first (of many) visit to Ichiza, and now I love Love LOVE this place! I had the grilled squid, fresh oysters, grilled smelt, ankimo, chawanmushi, unimochi, and honey toast. Everything was fantabulous! It was my first time trying ankimo, and now I am hooked! The unimochi was heavenly...2 of my favorite foods uni and grilled mochi, wrapped up in a little nori sheet! I saw so many things I want to order on my next visit. The staff was friendly and remixes of Ayumi Hamasaki's Voyage was bumpin' in the background...what a fun atmosphere! Everything was affordable, and in small quantities, so it was easy to try many different things. I got my discount stamper card and will definitely be back at Ichiza regularly. Finally, I have a great place to take my friends!
Update 2/3/07:
Tried to go here for lunch, but they only serve the stuff on their lunch menu at that time. Mostly bento box stuff, curries, sushi, udon, etc. They wouldn't let me order anything written on the walls! Bummer...but I did have the 2 item combo box with miso cod (yummy!) and sashimi. I was impressed with the quality of the sashimi, especially since it was a lunch special! Must go back for dinner...
Update 2/4/07:
I just HAD to go back! In addition to the unimochi and ankimo, I got the fried smelt (yummy! I think I prefer the fried vs. the grilled), the takowasabi (yummy!), the mochi-bacon skewers (yummy!), the fried baby crabs (just ok), the uni w/ ponzu sauce (heavenly!), agedashi tofu soup (yummy!), and DH accidentally ordered the uni & natto roll (hella nasty! but only because I HATE natto with a passion!) Again, the servers were really nice, and I can't wait for my next visit!
Update 3/24/07:
Had many of my favorites, plus we tried some new stuff - the gizzard skewers (ok), beef tongue skewers (yum!), chicken liver skewers (ok), wasabi-green-bean tempura (all tempura, and no wasabi), shumai (ok), half ramen (yum!), calpico shochu (can't even taste the shochu - yum!), and of course the honey toast (wish they would put about 2 more scoops of ice cream!) all in all, another yummy night @ Ichiza. I filled out my 1st stamper card, and now I'm on my 2nd! Woohoo!!!
