no.

They used to be, apparently found that was not very profitable, and now close ~10 during the week.

Btw, several months ago I had given Ichibahn a rather strong "Don't go there" rating.  I found the sushi to be of fairly poor quality: not very fresh and pretty meager portions.  I was not overly impressed with the quality of their regular menu items either.

A couple months ago I gave them another shot and was pleasantly suprised. The fish was very fresh, and was served in good portions.  I did not recognize any of the gentlemen behind the bar from my previous visits, so perhaps a new crew and/or new ownership has given the place a much needed lift.

I would definitely give it a 'check it out' rating now. :)
