Ikkyu Japanese Restaurant

Good food, great service, lovely beer! We found this gem on the first of 2 nights in Red Bluff on a road trip - we enjoyed it so much we came back the second night ! The Onibi beer is really cool and all 4 flavors we tried were tasty. Service was pleasant and attentive and food came out quickly. The whole place was clean, bright and nicely decorated . We had the salmon roll, Robb roll (I didn’t realize I needed bacon + curry in my life but now it is a must!), Tina roll, shrimp tempura roll, spicy tuna roll, Jimmy roll, gyoza and harumaki. From the Onibi beers we tried California rice lager, peach pale ale, Belgian saison and yuzu white ale (my favorite!) all were SO good and served in a nice frosty stein. It’s not cheap but the whole experience is great so I’m ok with the prices.

BEWARE NEW OWNER! If I could do a zero review, I would! This restaurant has sold to new owner and totally terrible! I had a gift certificate given to me 2 months ago and they would not honor it! New owner absolutely refused! MoMo old owner is the one that issued gift certificate with NO expiration date on it and she was there working with new owner but THE NEW OWNER still refused to take gift certificate. The reason I received the gift certificate was because I told all my clients at work how much I loved Ikkyu. The business sign is the same and MoMo was there working so I had no clue it changed owners until I tried to use the gift certificate. The menu was different with a lot of my favorites gone so was wondering what was going on when I ordered and then the food was not as good as my last visit. WE ARRIVED AT 5pm on a Saturday and left at 6pm and we were the only people in the whole restaurant and we were wondering what was going on because we have never seen it like that. So unfortunately, I will NEVER return to this restaurant with new owner.

Cold precooked tempura shrimp. Fake Wasabi. Wasn't spicy at all. Prices too high for the quality you get. The tea was good.
