“ There’s never a time, any of my guests or visitors I bring to this place…. Not enjoy anything about this place. My family, friends, visitors from overseas/ interstates… always enjoy Ichiban’s food & service. The chefs are entertaining and funny! My kids love the food and chefs So easy to even bring a 6/7 year old there… they really make them laugh and try all the yummy food…. Who wouldn’t want a private chef! Monique, thank you so much for all your help and services, you always make sure all of us enjoys the night and 2 nights ago, your team did it again… the kids & adults … all enjoyed and had a great meal! Thank you Monique, Chef Liam & team! ”
“ What a wonderful experience. Absolutely loved the chef Michael and his brilliant cooking style. He made us laugh and cooked up an awesome delicious meal. The servings kept rolling on. It’s a must outing. ”
“ Chef is super entertaining but a bit too loud. The service was pretty good though, Monique was really attentive and patient. She told us about the sauces on the plate and even encouraged us to take away our leftovers (whereby we feel shy to ask). Overall, the food was delicious! A good place for special occasions and gathering. ”
“ We had such a fun, laughter-filled dining experience here last night! Our assigned chef was amazing and hilarious! He delivered both great jokes and great food! The meats here tasted AMAZING! The beef and chicken melted in my mouth, yum… I especially recommend ordering the wagyu set. The portion sizes were really big too, so definitely value for money! I couldn’t finish my food, but they let me take the leftovers home. I’m excited to have it for lunch tomorrow! One advice is not to wear something you won’t want stained, because the chef will throw food at you (you will have to try to catch it with your mouth ). I highly recommend dining here! ”
“ Ichiban is incredible!!! The food, staff and vibe were all perfect, but what was really above and beyond was the way Monique and Fab entertained our two year old! Going out for dinner with him is usually a nightmare but they went so out of their way to entertain him with jokes, attention, stickers, fire, and care, our chef even picked up a prawn and sang baby shark to him and made him feel so chuffed when he threw rice bowls at him from a careful short distance so that he actually caught them! Monique cuddled our baby so we could eat and it was all just 10/10! The whole way home our two year old screamed “more Teppanyaki!” - we can’t wait to return, thank you for such outstanding service and the best night out we have had in years! ”
“ We visited for dinner 2 adults and 3 kids. A great family restaurant and would also suit a larger group. The food was as you would expect at a teppanyaki place as well as the entertainment. We ordered small sake, mock tails for the kids and the ‘signature’ pack. Serving size was generous. All worth it because our chef thoroughly entertained the kids with tricks. They were laughing all the way through the night and our waitress was also very professional and genuine. Worth the drive out to Doncaster. ”
“ We had the most wonderful dinner at Ichiban Teppanyaki in Doncaster East to celebrate our anniversary, and it was an unforgettable experience! The highlight was the teppanyaki chef, whose sense of humor and playful banter made the evening so much fun. His ability to match our energy and create a lively atmosphere elevated the dinner to something truly special. The food was absolutely delicious – we chose the seafood combination, and every bite was perfection. The classic teppanyaki antics, like throwing the egg and rice, added an extra layer of entertainment, even if it got a little messy (in the best way possible!). All praise to the chef for delivering such a superb and memorable experience. The service was equally impressive. Our waiter was amazing—attentive, friendly, and always there when we needed her, offering drinks and making sure we were well taken care of without being intrusive. Ichiban is a fantastic place for any occasion. Whether you're celebrating something special or just looking for great food and a fun night out, I cannot recommend it enough. Bring your family, grab some gift vouchers, or treat someone to an amazing dining experience here. Five stars all the way! ”
