Ichiban Bistro — Restaurant in Chocowinity

While I've waited and contemplated whether to share this review, in the end I thought it may be helpful to others looking for healthy choices. We're thrilled to have a local restaurant in the nearby community, especially one that offers quality sushi and affordable lunch / dinner combos; however, with that said, there are little to no healthy options offered on OR off the menu for anyone trying to eat clean or following a low carb / keto diet! Everything is either sugared down or heavily ladened sauces. I even asked if they could provide a stir fry or any type of meal (I'm not picky) without the added sugar or thickening agents (not to mention high sodium) to which I received a flat "no" - not even an offer of compromise! This hit me wrong, especially as businesses are struggling to stay open and ask customers to support them during the challenge of Covid-19. My hope is that this review doesn't fall upon deaf ears and that management hears my concerns and makes a concerted effort to make changes to the menu options and/or offers to accommodate customer diet...

Normally I have such an amazing experience here, food is always on time, take out is ready when they say it will be. Always greeted with a smiling face and a warm welcome. But today was so different. The lady at the counter was rude as could be. I was told when I called my food in that it would be ready in 25 minutes and I lost track of time so I showed up 40 minutes after calling it in. My food still was not ready, I was told it would be another 20 minutes. When I asked why it wasn’t ready it was brushed off as well he had a big order come in after yours and it was put to the side. I was upset but didn’t say anything. So I am now in my car waiting for my food. Hopefully it is made correctly and is as good as it...

Walked in wanting to splurge on 🍣 and sake literally. I was approached by a waitress that immediately tried to place me at a table in the corner. I asked to be placed at the bar, she agreed. While at the bar, after she brought my water whist shoving the straw at me, she constantly asked me if I was ready to order. Mind you, the first sentence of this review is I walked in wanting g to splurge on 🍣 and sake. After reviewing their menu, which has a lot of options, I've decided it's time to order. So, I told the waitress I'm ready to order. She ignored me 😆 🤣 while looking directly at me. After processing this information, I decided this place probably isn't good and...
