About Ichiban Sushi CBD

Tucked on Level 1 of Tattersalls Arcade, Ichiban Sushi delivers cut-above sushi train fare and steamy kitchen classics right in the Brisbane CBD. Diners grab passing plates from the central conveyor or punch custom orders into table iPads, keeping the pace entirely their own. Regulars zero in on thick-cut salmon nigiri, seared aburi scallops, and hot chicken katsu bentos assembled behind the counter. Solo diners settle into the bar to watch the knives work—washing it down with a glass of crisp wine or a cold grapefruit beer.

  • Dual-Track Conveyor & Tablet Ordering: Pick passing dishes right off the belt or tap the tableside digital tablet to summon made-to-order nigiri and hot bowls without waiting.
  • Raw Nigiri Meets Full Hot Kitchen: Pair clean cuts of raw fish with generous chicken katsu bentos, steaming ramen, and crispy gyoza from the dedicated hot kitchen.
  • Counter Seating for Solo Diners: Perch along the bar counter for an unhurried solo lunch or dinner with a direct front-row view of the chefs slicing and assembling each plate.

Why Dine at Ichiban Sushi CBD

Discover why city diners rely on Ichiban Sushi CBD for fresh sushi, complete bento meals, and effortless conveyor dining.

  • Generous Portions & CBD Value

    Diners receive high-quality, generously sized nigiri, sashimi, and sushi dishes prepared with standout freshness at wallet-friendly prices right in Queen Street Mall.

    The food was the highlight, bigger than usual sushi pieces, and the price is the best part, cheaper than other places so value for money is extremely impressive!

  • Diverse Hot Kitchen & Bento Selection

    Alongside rotating sushi plates, guests can enjoy full bento boxes, ramen, and hot Japanese kitchen dishes cooked fresh and served quickly.

    Besides sushi, you can also enjoy hot dishes like ramen and bento at reasonable prices, and they’re all surprisingly good for the price.

    A welcoming, tranquil dining room and attentive staff provide a comforting escape from busy routines, letting guests decompress over delicious food.

    I come here every Friday to reward myself for surviving yet another week of capitalistic hellholes and insufferable people, and they greet me with a smile, some delicious food at a cheap price

  • Prompt Yet Relaxed Pacing

    Courteous service and swift food turnaround ensure meals feel calm and unhurried even when dining close to closing time or during a quick visit.

    The pacing of the meal was ideal — prompt but never rushed — allowing for a truly relaxed dining experience.

  • Conveyor Train & Tablet Ordering Hybrid

    The venue provides a seamless dual-ordering setup where diners can instantly grab dishes off the conveyor belt or order made-to-order specialties via digital tablets.

    It's great to be able to order on a tablet or grab items on the sushi train! Really nice spot and the food came out really quickly!

  • Front-Row Chef Bar Experience

    Bar-counter seating offers guests an engaging, comfortable view of skilled chefs handcrafting fresh sushi and hot dishes right in front of them.

    The service is friendly, efficient and it's fascinating to watch the chefs at work from the seats at the bar.
