This is what we had more of before Covid a Chef owned and ran restaurant. This is where you will find the quantity and passion from a very talented Sushi Chef. Reminds me of other great chefs starting a name for themselves.I am always looking for a good happy hour and I do enjoy an all you can eat sushi place. Unfortunately, I seemed to forget what quantity over quantity means.I had a few pieces of the freshest fish that had more flavor than my mouth could handle. Came back with a date and had Soft shell crab a specialty Salmon Roll and rice paper Shrimp Roll. All amazingly delicious and filling nice sized portions except I could eat 6 crabs. Looking forward to going back. Very memorable experience especially I had only been in twice and was recognized when I sat down at the Sushi Bar.

This place never disappoints, seriously some of the best sushi around! Everything is always super fresh and full of flavor. We ordered a little bit of everything, Chirashi bowl, uni, toro, a few rolls, plus some skewers, tempura, and soft shell crab from the kitchen. Every dish was delicious and perfectly made Only downside? The wait. There was just one waitress taking care of all the tables, but she was so sweet and doing her best. Totally worth the wait though, I'd still come back in a heartbeat for sushi this good! If you're craving quality sushi and don't mind taking your time, Icho Izakaya is the spot!

Excellent Japanese food, many fresh specials. There is a total of 8 tables, if planning to go for dinner it’s a good idea to make reservations. Tempura is a must, great sushi, & chef specials!

So I forgot to take pictures of the food because we were so hungry but it’s was bomb! We got: salmon sushi bake, eel bowl, mackerel nigiri, chicken and shrimp yakitori, rock fish, and miso soup. They gave us the rock fish and yakitori with fancy salt! There was yuzu salt and wasabi salt. Everything was cooked to perfection. I will be returning if I pass through phoenix again.

I’ve driven by so many times lately, so I had to give it a try. Very glad I did. Small and cozy with an attentive staff. The miso was tastier than most places. The nigiri was fresh and delightful. We really enjoyed the Firecracker Roll and the Spicy Rainbow Roll. We can’t wait to go back.
