Slip into a dreamy Tokyo morning right in the heart of the East Village! Ichibantei invites you on a wondeful escape where every bite feels like a passport stamp. This beloved hideaway - praised by The New York Times, Zagat, Eater, and Time Out - transforms brunch into a drool-worthy, bottomless celebration of authentic Japanese flavors.
Grab your $49 pulse (a $100 value) for a Bottomless Brunch For Two that includes 2 Brunch Entrees, as well as 60 Minutes of Bottomless Drinks, with a choice of Sake Cocktails (Lychee, Peach, Passion Fruit, Yuzu, and Kabosu), as well as House Selected Sakes, Wines, & Beers.
Wander into a space that feels worlds away. Think soft light that spills from retro-chic chandeliers, vintage film stills that whisper stories from a bygone era, and reggae vinyls that spin an unexpected, irresistible vibe. It's a curated clash of tradition and cool, just like Tokyo itself.
Settle in, sip something sensational, and let the feast begin. From sumptuous Niku Udon with angus ribeye, udon noodle, fish broth, yuzu, and lime to sizzling Karaage Don repping fried chicken thighs, rice, mixed salad, and lemon, every mouthful is crafted with love and layered with nostalgia.
It’s a bite-sized journey through Japan, served with style and soul...
Craving a dreamy wanderlust-inducing detour without booking a flight? Let Ichibantei in the East Village whisk you away with a brunch that’s all about next-level flavor. Celebrated by Eater as one of the “Japanese Restaurants to Try in the East Village,” this hidden gem reimagines classic Japanese comfort food with an upscale twist.
Step inside and it’s as if you’ve stumbled upon a tucked-away hotspot in the backstreets of Shibuya. Vinyl record covers line the walls, reggae beats hum softly in the background, and the aroma of sizzling fare wraps around you like a warm embrace. Whether you’re sipping a few Yuzu Sake Cocktails, bubbly brews, or a bold glass of wine, your cup will be refilled again & again.
Let the feast begin with crave-worthy staples like Saikoro Steak Don—juicy angus ribeye glazed in a savory onion sauce, served over fluffy rice with crisp salad and sesame seeds. Or dive into the Tuna Zuke Don, where silky cuts of rare tuna meet a rich ontama egg, seaweed, and rice for a deeply satisfying bite.
The New York Times recognizes its “loyal following drawn to its heartfelt take on classic dishes.” This is a brunch escape you’ll be dreaming about long after the last sip. Cheers to you...
All selections will be made from the restaurant's full brunch menu.
