We ate here, named Ichiban Restaurant on the awning, on Christmas day 2012. The place was pretty packed with big tables, so I understand they may have been pushed near capacity. However, things were not great. The hectic restaurant has very shaky, hollow floors. As the waitstaff stomped around, the table shook quite a bit, making for an uncomfortable dining experience. Several tables around us were complaining amongst themselves as we waited for our food. Not a good sign.\n\nWe ordered some staples. MaPo Tofu, Pad Thai, and a Cold mushroom app per yelper recommendation. The MaPo was pretty good if incredibly salty, but the Pad Thai was pretty gross, with a strong bell pepper forward flavor and absolutely smothered in a pretty gross tomatoey sauce. The sauce was reminiscent of Chef Boyardee canned products. So, ok, the Thai dish at the Chinese restaurant wasn't that good. Whatever. \n\nHowever, we never received the appetizer, but were charged for it, and no wait staff ever returned to our table. Our water was never filled. We weren't really able to tell who was supposed to be our server.\n\nWith all these positive reviews, I hope that if I ever make it back here they live up to their reputation.
