Review Summary

Hoshi comes up in reviews as a cozy, small Japanese spot at the edge of Chinatown that serves authentic, generously portioned katsu, don, udon and tempura, with the pork cutlet and curry katsu repeatedly praised for a juicy, crispy crust and rich curry; the salmon, tuna and seafood items are described as fresh and tasty, and the tempura udon is a favorite for many. Soups such as miso and a creamy mushroom starter are commonly noted, though a few bowls can be overly salty, and some diners found the katsu don or curry a touch heavy on onions or texture a little underdone. Service is consistently described as friendly and attentive in a tiny, often busy space, and portions and prices are generally considered very good value. The place is frequently labeled a hidden gem and worth the wait, with several reviewers planning to return to try more dishes, while a handful warn that seating is limited and lines can form during peak hours.

Excellent katsu! Best I've had in the city & best tempura too. The batter is light & crisp, the pork is moist & perfectly cooked. The ingredients for the tendon is high quality & also perfectly cooked. A must-try for sure! The space is quite small so it might be a good idea to go during off peak hours. Their area in chinatown is a bit hidden so I hope everyone who hears about it will go! Disclaimer: My meal was comped.
