Aji Ichiban is a japanese in Cincinnati, Ohio. It is listed at 1000 Elm St, Cincinnati, OH 45202, which places it among the local businesses of Cincinnati that residents and visitors turn to when they need this kind of service close by.

This group covers Japanese, Korean, Thai, Vietnamese, Indian and other Asian cuisines that are not Chinese, and the etiquette varies by kitchen. Japanese and Korean restaurants often take reservations for dinner and may add a service charge for large groups; Thai and Vietnamese spots are usually walk-in and quick-turnover. Spice levels are frequently adjustable on request at Thai, Indian and Sichuan-adjacent menus, so say if you want it mild or hot.

Vietnamese pho shops post bowl sizes (regular or large) and a plate of herbs, bean sprouts and lime is normal to add yourself. Card and tap-to-pay are widely accepted; cash-only is more common at small family-run counters.

Great food, generous portions, and an inviting atmosphere with a chef whose expertise shines in every dish. The fresh vegetables and salad were exceptionally clean and well-prepared, reflecting strong attention to quality and food safety. Overall, a highly recommended spot for delicious meals and excellent hospitality.

The woman working today (7/7/26) was extremely rude! We are from out of town and had planned to dine at this place, but after reviewing the menu for only 2 minutes, we had decided to visit a different place. She got so upset and used racial slurs. That was not only unprofessional, but it was disgusting!!! I’m so happy I didn’t waste my money here. I DO NOT RECOMMEND!

We had the best time here. The service was amazing. We had hibachi which was a blast, and the filet mignon was so tasty! And they even have a karaoke set up! They also brought us some dessert when they found out we just got married. Highly recommend and shoutout to Emma, Doris, and Bla for taking such good care of us!

WOW!!! Easily the best hibachi that I have ever had β€” in terms of food, service, and atmosphere. The owner made us incredible $8 cocktails and a hot passionfruit tea as we had just come in from the cold. This is also the most vegetarian friendly hibachi restaurant I have ever been to: I ordered vegetarian and my boyfriend ordered steak, and our chef actually prepared my vegetables entirely before the meat to ensure there was no cross contact β€” which I greatly appreciated as not every restaurant is so considerate! They also let me know what was in each side dish as they brought them out to make sure I knew if I could eat them. The tofu was fresh and tender and downright incredible. My bf said the steak was amazing as well. We are naturally chatty people and love to socialize, so we had great conversations with everyone working there β€” everyone was super kind and knowledgeable about the history of the 150+ year old building. Delicious food, highly recommend β€” I am sure I will be back for dinners and drinks alike.

I know it is frustrating to work during holidays, but seriously, why, why cold food? It was COLD! And I had to get the waitress to get the food back to the kitchen, they came back with a hot plate, ok you warmed my food with microwave and made the rice became too hard. But what’s more frustrating is that, my friend ordered steak and shrimp (it was not cheap at all), the waitress carefully asked how my friend wanted the steak and my friend surely told her she wanted medium rare. Again, MEDIUM RARE, but when the waitress walked out, the steak was like it went through hell before it was sent to our plate, it was DARK! The salad and chicken were good tho.
