Icho Japanese - Houston

Tuna taco at @ichojapaneseresto I really love Japanese food and this probably is my favorite of all. To have the perfect mixture of crunchiness and raw tuna with mayo.

Authentic Jap food at the heart of metro. Quite pricey, but all dishes we got were worth the price. We ate here on a Sunday for lunch, and the place was jam-packed. Hence, we opted to sit at the bar to avoid the wait. Service was still fast throughout our stay. Food was superb, too. Particularly commend their sashimis—they were fresh and I would say, of top quality. Melts in the mouth!!!

A friday well spent at ICHO! I was overwhelmed with the dishes they served us. The Kani Salad ₱ 235) was very refreshing! The sweetness of the mango and sourness of the tomatoes along with the lettuce is a perfect combo. I think I had more than I should haha! The Aburi Foie Gras ₱ 250) was so nice, it has that smokey flavor. It was luscious, kind of melt in your mouth. The Robata Platter is advisable for sharing. My favorite is the wagyu, it was so soft!

Icho is found in the tail end of Annapolis close to EDSA. They have parking at the back of the restaurant as well as a parking lot closer to EDSA. The menu is diverse with some dishes you don't see in other Jap restaurant. The dish prices range from reasonable to the more expensive side. So better to study the menu and pick whatever suits your budget. Tempura Moriawase (Mixed tempura) Php450 Light crispy tempura batter. Ours had 3 pieces of shrimps then 1 piece each of asuhos (fish), sliced onion, carrot and sweet potato. Kamo Nanban Udon sliced duck breast in a light soy broth with udon noodles. Nicely balanced flavors. Recommended! Salmon Teppanyaki 3 pieces of salmon fillet cooked with garlic, soy sauce and butter. Maybe they could undercook it a little. Alligator Roll Php250 Shrimp tempura, eel, crabstick, avocado and fish roe. Skip the usual California Roll and go for this one. This is a must try! Ichō Roll Php260 my favorite maki roll! Shrimp tempura, crabsticks and lost of ebiko caviar! You have to order this! Spicy Tofu Forai Php220 deep fried tofu with a spicy miso paste. Served over salad greens. Great for tofu lovers!
