The place was lovely and staff were lovely. This is probably the best Japanese restaurant to find around the locals. Will surely come back in the future
Ichirin is a small, unassuming suburban restaurant that serves 5-star quality food! Absolutely delicious! The service was great too. We will definitely be back! :)
The terayaki beef was juicy and really yummy. Special of the day was good too. Busy but Shiro managed well. Will be back pretty soon.
Very nice Japanese restaurant, good food and fantastic service.highly recommended make sure book early
Wonderful experience. Only deducted 1 point because I found it a little difficult to hear conversation at our table on a very busy Sat night and the seats were not the most comfortable in the world. But that said, this was my 3rd visit in a month, so still definitely worth some slight inconveniences!
An absolute local gem. We had the omakase menu which was divine. Will be definitely going back again to try some of the other items on the menu. Reservations are a must.
very good neighborhood gem. will definitely go back for a meal or two. we haven’t tried the dinner omakase but should he on our list
The food is good, very authentic Japanese. Like the chicken karagae and sushi. The bento box is quite nice and well presented. Will go back there again.
very good japanese place.. hidden gem. yummy lunch bento. will definitely go back
We totally enjoyed our omakase dinner. Everything that they served to us was yummy. The sashimi/sushi platter that the couple next to us had looks really good. We have to go back and try the ala carte menu. Totemo oishikatta desu. Mata kimasu! =)
Food was excellent, just let down a little by the service which had to be reminded about our green tea and didn't explain all of the dishes in the omakase.
When we booked we were not informed we had to leave in an hour. Was only told when we arrived. Which i think was not too nice as we had to rush through our dinner. Food is ok but have tasted nicer elsewhere.
Great food and chef very attentive. Hard-working wait staff need to make sure order is communicated clearly, so no surprises - ask questions if you are not sure. We'll be back!
So delicious. Everything is just delicious! Textures, flavours and combinations are delightful. Staff are very attentive and prompt. Always a nice treat to dine here
Amazing food & great Sashimi quality too! Will be sure to come back!
Ichirin came recommended to us & it didn’t disappoint. Service was very good without being intrusive, food was absolutely beautiful, and came out quickly once ordered with Lovely presentation. Pity it’s such a small venue. Definitely be back again.
Always happy to have lunch here with friends. Tried the ichirin bento this time and it was really yummy. Sashimi is fresh and beef tataki is very juicy
Ichirin is a low-key hidden gem in Leeming, which looks and feels like a humble neighbourhood restaurant but punches above its weight with an impressive menu that is truly Japanese but is also mindful of local ingredients. Went for the Omakase ("trust the chef") and was treated to a well balanced set of 6 courses, each thoughtfully crafted and distinctive than the last, and really showcased the skill of the chef. Ichirin is definitely something special, and I look forward to my next visit!
great japanese food! secret neighborhood gem. must try the bento box
Best restaurant ever. Always fresh and delicious food. Attention to detail is excellent.
Ichirin is my favorite-food super fresh and menu inventive. Staff super friendly. My local go to restaurant.
Menu showcases the freshest ingredients at the best price. Always something fresh and new.
Fantastic neighbourhood gem! The ranking cod sashimi was fresh and the special tuna bento were just full of delicious goodies like tempura prawns, chicken karaage, salad & tuna chirashi on a bed of sushi rice.
The service was great and lunch was delicious. We were served attentively
Absolutely delicious food. Fish was melt in your mouth , steak was butter smooth bento box was great value. Agedashi tofu, gyuoza and octopus karage also very tasty
Beef fillet is the best. Chef even came out to help. Waitress was sometimes forgetful but overall very high quality food. My second time coming.
Pleasant service, good value eats at a great price point. Dishes were well executed if rather safe. I think Shiro-san is potentially more creative than this month's omakase offer will have me believe though so another visit is definitely on the cards.
Fantastic food. Just been to Japan and rivals what we had there. Lovely restaurant and BYO great. Been multiple times and will keep going back.
Small (essential to book for the restaurant section). Excellent food served quickly and efficiently at a very reasonable price. Will certainly go back in the future
Food was amazing and service was good. The omakase menu was great value and we loved the pace that the food was brought out on.
The place reminds us of our experience in Japan. Close contact with cook. Food well presented and over all a very pleasant experience. Will try again.
Great little place that serves up real authentic Jap. Full credit to Shiro-san for continuously evolving the menu to what the freshest produce is available, in accordance with the season.
The food was well presented, fresh (especially the fish) and well made. Service was a bit hit and miss. Upper end of pricing. Basic seating and tables.
Service was prompt and friendly and the food was exquisite! We’ll be back for sure... highly recommend this little gem of a restaurant in Leeming
Had the April Omakase menu. Dishes were fresh. The second dish (chicken) could be improved as it wasn’t tasty and tasted like steamed chicken. First dish (salmon), fourth dish (white fish) and fifth dish (beef) was outstanding.
We ordered - Assorted Sashimi (very fresh), White Fish with Mushroom in Tomato Broth (clean & clear taste) and Ichirin Bento (good way to get a taste of various items). Dishes were well presented and staffs were attentive.
Lovely lunch with delicious food, only disappointing part was no nigiri available 😞 but we had some Amazing Tempura prawns, goyza and a few other tasty dishes.
Food quality is always superb. The restaurant is always busy and full of people, but it is quite small. Owner is always happy to talk to customers and lovingly prepares all dishes. Reminds me of the food I have when visiting Japan.
Excellent service and the food was amazing! Every visit has been an exceptional experience. Well done to Shiro and his team for creating such fantastic food and hospitality!
Very good quality of food , friendly service and very comfy restaurant environment
