Shanghai Ichiban is one of West Michigan’s favorite dining establishments and has been serving the area since 1987. Formerly known as Shanghai Garden, the Yang family relocated the restaurant to its current location at the corner of Broadmoor (M-37) and 29th Street where head chef, James Yang and his brothers, Steve and Eric continue their success of 30+ years of restaurant experience.

With two restaurants under one roof, Shanghai Ichiban offers two unique dining experiences. Our Japanese Steakhouse offers all of the flare and excitement with a meal prepared right before your eyes by a skilled hibachi chef. Or enjoy an intimate, relaxing experience in our Chinese dining room where you can customize a delectable meal from an expansive menu that includes familiar dishes as well as specialty dishes created by our head chef. We also have a sushi bar that serves fresh fish daily and can also be ordered on either the Japanese or Chinese side.

Being a family-owned establishment, our success depends on the quality of its customers. We thank all of you for your support over the past three decades and look forward to continue serving the greater West Michigan area for years to come!

Testimonials

  • Because I'm as fond of hibachi as I am, it's really saying something that Shang Hai Ichiban here in West Michigan impressed me more than any other hibachi restaurant I've tried, including the chain Benihana
