Ichiban - Cardiff

Delicious and authentic Japanese food, just as you might find in Osaka itself. We had a lovely meal after the rugby. Friendly and attentive service and good value.

Great place with great staff and wonderful Japanese food, visited with a friend on Thursday night I had Nike Yasai Itame, the beef was cooked to perfection and my friend had Tuna Sashimi and chicken Teriyaki, all really fresh and tasty, 5 stars excellent

We stumbled upon this hidden gem in Osaka and were blown away by the amazing food and atmosphere! The vegetable and prawn tempura were delightfully light and fluffy, while the chicken katsu was crispy and full of flavor. The service was excellent and the ambiance was beautiful.

I came with a group of about 15 people and the restaurant was very accommodating on a Saturday afternoon. The service was fast and the food and drinks were delicious. I recommend trying their combo meals, which they offer 8-10 options for $11.50 each. They also have a sushi plate if you want to try different types of sushi.

Went here for a pre Chapter film, we hadn’t booked but they squeezed us in, so glad we got a space because the food was amazing! Nicest katsu curry I’ve had anywhere! The takoyaki was also wonderfully cooked and the portions were very generous with lots of bonito flakes! The sake choice was also great, asked for some cold sake and two lovely waitresses came out with a selection, chose one of the still ones and it was stunning. Also tried a little of my boyfriend’s meal (Pork don katsu rice bowl) and it was equally good. In summary, amazing fresh and tasty food, lovely setting and lovely staff. Perfect combo! Will be coming back here again whenever we’re in Canton! Thank you all.
