Known especially for its eel dish and fresh sashimi
Popular as an intimate spot for special occasions like Valentine's Day

📖

Full description

ichi rewards a bit of searching — reviewers mention initial confusion finding the entrance, which only adds to its low-key charm once inside. The eel dish and fresh sashimi come recommended, with one reviewer specifically enjoying it as part of a Valentine's Day lunch, suggesting a room suited to intimate occasions.

Its notably high hidden-gem score relative to its must-see score confirms this is a spot in-the-know diners seek out rather than one on every tourist itinerary. A 4.7 rating across 425 reviews points to a small but genuinely satisfied following.

Reviews

We had a nice lunch for Valentine’s Day, our waitress was very attentive! The eel dish was quite tasty, the freshness of sashimi was ok, nothing mind blowing. The tempuras were too oily for my taste.
