Ichiban Japanese Grill

Ichiban Japanese Grill keeps things simple: a Japanese restaurant doing its own thing in Tuscaloosa, a short walk from University of Alabama. No corporate office is calling the shots here - just someone running their own Japanese restaurant in Tuscaloosa. University of Alabama students and Tuscaloosa residents pass by it on any given day, whether they stop in or not. No corporate test kitchen behind this one - just people cooking food they want to serve. Part of the fun of a college town like Tuscaloosa is finding places like this on your own. A first visit tends to turn into a habit around here, one meal at a time.
