Best Japanese restaurant in Gwinnett! Absolutely love the ramen, takoyaki, and wide variety of sashimi they have. Highly recommend the Ama Ebi to any shrimp lover :)

I went here on a Friday. And I was 8 min early. And the door was unlocked and I wanted to sit at the sushi bar and the front desk sat me down and gave me the menus. Not even a min one of the chef got very rude and told me not to sit front of sushi bar because he was not ready setting up. And he said it was ok but clearly he was not happy with me being 8 min early. So I was like in my mind Relax I'm just looking at the menu. And if you weren't ready why is the door unlocked. I just left. Not knowing I was a regular and have ordered to go. Not no more. Just a little attitude towards customers is not acceptable. You will not be missed. Good riddance.

Was hanging out with my sister and I wanted some ramen. I decided to wait for this spot to open at 5:30 to eat dinner and the wait was definitely worth it. SO GOOD! I got the Soy Ramen Gozen and it was absolutely delicious. Would definitely reccomend this to others. Hope to come back again!

So, I've been reading some of the reviews of Haru Ichiban, and I don't know about you, but what I know about Japanese culture is basically what I gleaned form watching the karate kid about 100 times, reading Memoires of a Geisha, and going to Beni Hanas for my birthday as a kid. That's not to say I've never had Japanese food. Rather, I have no idea what an "authentic" Japanese meal would look and taste like. What I do know is that the food we ordered was delicious, service was great, and there were like 15 different kinds of sake. And when I asked what some of the dishes were that I hadn't heard of before, they didn't make me feel like an idiot. So all in all, a great experience.

When I worked at the Toyota factory in Huntsville, the Japanese coordinators would take a trip to Duluth once a month to shop for groceries from Japan - AND to eat at Haru Ichiban. That is really all you need to know to figure out how legit this place is. Everything is amazing, but one piece of advice is that the dinner menu is much larger than the lunch menu so go for dinner if you want the full selection.

Oh I can't say enough great things about this place! Haru Ichiban is the BEST sushi joint I've had the pleasure of eating at - and I've had a LOT of sushi in my time. So let's break it down
The restaurant is in an unassuming brick exterior strip outlet - nothing to look at, and easily looked over, but don't be fooled! Upon entering, the decor is quaint, and the place is much larger than it looks with a variety of seating styles!
Both times I've been 3 sushi chefs are behind the counter.which should tell you something, because during popular hours people cram right out the door waiting for an empty table!
The wait staff are super friendly and informative. They don't make you feel stupid for asking questions, and even though there may be people waiting for a table, the staff do not rush you. Prompt service too. Prices are right on par with most sushi jointsbut here at Haru Ichiban you will get larger rolls, fresher ingredients, and more protein.
If you're not convinced yet..
Now to the great part..
If you're going to eat raw fish or try sushi for the first time, then Haru Ichiban is the place to go. No joke now, this is not just an expressionthe tuna DOES actually melt in your mouth. The chefs are artists. The rolls are HUGE, and the protein is a plenty. No skimping here! Pictured are the Rollarcoaster Roll, the Sunset Roll, the Shrimp Dynamite Roll, and the Bagel Roll.
Try Haru Ichiban out. I promise you won't be disappointed!!response / report this review -

This is our favorite place for sushi. They have the best sushi menu in Atlanta. The fish is always fresh and service is always great. My wife loves the avocado dome salad with salmon. We have not been disappointed with this menu ever. We try a different roll every time we come in and are just amazed at how good they are. Try Haru Ichiban you will not be disappointed.

Out of Many, Few Stand Out..
I don't know why it's taken so long for me to write a review of Haru Ichiban.
Maybe it's because it's been our favorite restaurant for over 10 years and I'm not sure how to express my fondness for the food and the people who work there. After so much time they feel like family, and I know it's impossible to be objective about the treatment we receive or even the cuts of fish we get. After all these years, the same servers and the same itamaes are giving us the best they have.
So, I guess I'll just say this:
I've been to a lot of Japanese restaurants over the years, I've eaten an obscene amount of sushi and udon from West Palm to New York City everything from traditional buffet style to $150+ per plate meals. This place, this humble Japanese diner, stuck out in a generic strip mall flanked by laser-tag and a postal outlet, is still in my top three Japanese restaurants, anywhere.
The service is pretty good when you're "new". After you've been going there for a while and build a mutual respect, the service is nothing short of outstanding.
For example: a several years back, Japanfest had just closed up for the day and there was line 30 people deep to the door of Ichiban and the dining room was full. They MADE a place setting so that we could eat without waiting. You don't just get that kind of service by walking in and ordering a California roll once or twice. Come to think of it, this place reminds me of the old family diners in NJ. Once you become a regular, what you get, and what the "guy off the street" gets are not quite the same.response / report this review -

Customer service was fine in the beginning, but gradually the waitress stop coming by to check on my friend and me.
Place is a bit hard to find from the road.
I didn't enjoy my food here as much as I would like.
The menu had a big selection of food. Some appetizers did not make sense to me such as the ribeye that was listed. Steak as an appetizer? That's a first.response / report this review -

If you're looking for fancy, go else where. If you're looking for good quality sushi then you've found a great spot. This is a small and cozy reataurant with great food and well served dishes. Definitely one to try, Enjoy!
