High-quality and affordable Japanese cuisine restaurant.

I went shopping in Tsim Sha Tsui with my sister. She mentioned that she had been to Sushi Ichi with her friends before and found the food fresh and delicious, and the best part was the affordable price. So, she took me there for a sumptuous lunch. The restaurant is decorated in the style of a Japanese izakaya, with bar counters, four-person tables, and private rooms. Overall, the seating is quite spacious and very comfortable. There are many food options, including sashimi, donburi, grilled dishes, and other Japanese cuisine. You can find almost everything that a Japanese izakaya offers. Faced with so many choices, I decided to let my sister take charge while I sat back and waited to eat. We started with a lunch set of five-color sashimi teishoku, which included miso soup, salad, chawanmushi, and small dishes. We even upgraded the rice to red vinegar rice. The sashimi included red shrimp, salmon, octopus, yellowtail, and scallops. Each piece was very fresh and thickly sliced, providing a rich texture. Next, we had one of their signature dishes, the Sushi Ichi Thousand Layer Sea Urchin Rice. It was a tower of layers of Japanese sea urchin and toro paste. The presentation was already very eye-catching, and the taste was even more impressive. The sea urchin was very fresh, rich in flavor, and smooth. Combined with the fatty toro paste and wrapped in seaweed, it was incredibly delicious. I regretted only ordering a small portion! The sanma sashimi was recommended by the staff. They mentioned that it was the season for sanma, and it was a limited-time offer. They were right; not only was the presentation beautiful, but the chef's knife skills were also excellent, with each thin slice being almost the same size. The taste was even better, extremely fresh with no fishy smell. You could taste the full flavor of the fish without even dipping it in the ginger and scallion soy sauce. It completely changed my perception of sanma. We also tried the Japanese monkfish liver, known as the "foie gras of the sea." It had a soft and smooth texture, almost melting in your mouth, with a rich, fatty aroma. The miso-braised beef tongue was also delicious. The miso soup had a moderate flavor, and the thick slices of beef tongue were well-marinated and very tender, not tough at all. Finally, we had a homemade minced chicken skewer. It was very tender and juicy, with a slightly charred surface. Paired with Japanese egg sauce, it made the taste even richer. 📍 18-20/F, Blue Horse Commercial Building, 12-12A Hau Fook Street, Tsim Sha Tsui
