Service

The servers at Ishin, dressed in traditional Japanese outfits, add to the authenticity of the dining experience. Their attire, coupled with their polite and efficient service, creates a welcoming atmosphere. While I was surprised that they did not greet us with the standard Japanese greetings, their professionalism and attentiveness made up for it. The servers promptly led us to our table and provided us with menus, ensuring that we were well taken care of from the moment we arrived.

Food at Ishin Japanese Restaurant

Ramen: The highlight of my meal at Ishin was the Tokyo Special Ramen. Priced at 448 pesos, this dish featured a flavorful broth that transported me back to the streets of Tokyo. However, I was slightly disappointed by the thin slices of meat that accompanied the dish. While the broth was rich and satisfying, I found myself longing for thicker, more substantial slices of meat to complement the flavors.

Kani Salad: To start our meal, Lei Lani ordered the Kani Salad, a refreshing Japanese salad featuring sweet imitation crab meat, crisp cucumber, and a tangy mayo dressing. The salad was light and refreshing, serving as the perfect appetizer to whet our appetites.

Karaage: Jojo Bayona opted for the Karaage, a Japanese fried chicken dish that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The chicken was perfectly seasoned and paired well with a side of dipping sauce. It was a simple yet satisfying dish that left us craving for more.
