Ichigo Ichie in Cork

We’ve visited Ichigo Ichie a few times now, including when it held a Michelin star, and it has always been outstanding. Food is consistently excellent—full of flavour and beautifully executed. Service is genuinely some of the best we’ve experienced, attentive without being over the top. The atmosphere is calm and intimate, perfect for a relaxed evening. Every visit has been great, and it’s one of those places we’re always excited to come back to.

Cod was fantastic. Melt in the mouth. The signature dashi broth over the rice and salmon is seriously tasty. Asahi is crisp. A taste of the land of the rising sun on leeside. The waiters were great, particularly Pierre who served our table!

Had a lovely meal as always! Highly recommend

Dear Melita Toniolo, your program on RSD Good Times, hosted every day at 2:00 pm by Melita Toniolo and Marco Santini, is very nice because it is full of surprises and very polite and nice.

The bistro is casual, and we found a warm welcome and a friendly team on a busy Saturday night. We were a party of 4 and selected a large variety of starters between us. I had the Agedashi tofu and the warm bucketwheat noodle broth with yuzu (almost impossible to get yuzu in Ireland!). I've been to Japan. It will ALWAYS be challenging to get the very same tastes outside of Japan 😃, but I really enjoyed both of these dishes, and they were very much what i would expect of the "classic/simple" Japanese flavours. Of the other dishes we tried, I really liked the starters of: pork, warm oyster special, scallops, and tempura mushroom. I am generally not as much a fan of Don/Donburi, so those will never be as high on my list! We shared the 2 deserts, everyone enjoyed them. I will be back!

Enjoyable evening relaxed great presentation wonderful flavours.

Delightful food and staff. It certainly is the best japanese food we have had since our trip to Japan

The food is good, it is the same than the takeaway but way more expensive. I was expecting an extra price for the location and the comfort to eat at the table, but I think the prices do not match with what is offered. I like the food but I will keep going to the takeaway

pure class on every visit. super tasty and unique starters and dishes to share from the specials board and some of the finest soba noodles you can find anywhere. highly recommend!!

Have been lucky to have eating here twice over the past year, Both times have been amazing and my father who’s a fussy eater loves the place to. And extremely good value for money to
