The Pork Katsu & tempura with tartare sauce were incredible, really delicious & filling. The staffs were really attentive & thoughtful to what I asked & for that I commend them, hats off! Highly recommended restaurant. Good service & great food. Will absolutely order again/go to the restaurant in person. ❤?❤?❤?❤?❤?
Came here on a Monday for a quick lunch. Even during the busy hour, the place was pretty empty, so food came out fast. The setup reminded me of the Katsuya-style restaurants that are big in South Korea. Tons of tonkatsu variations with Korean street-food like toppokki. This location felt a notch below what you'd get in Seoul, but still better than most spots in North America.
From the Korean side of the menu, I got the mala cream toppokki. Never tried it during its hype era, & it was actually better than I expected. Thin cylindrical rice cakes (which I usually prefer) & a mala cream sauce with enough heat without that heavy carbonara vibe.
The chicken karaage was decent. I went with thigh meat, but they didn't drain the oil properly, so it leaned a bit greasy. For tonkatsu, I'd been craving a proper cheese katsu, so I ordered Gold & Silver (half mozzarella, half cheddar). The cheddar half was too sharp & salty, while the mozzarella side was solid, though the pork crust ran a tad dry.
Still a good option if you want casual Korean & Japanese comfort food downtown at a reasonable price.

Food was decent but overall experience at katsuya was pretty bad. The food was rally good, packed with flavour but loaded with oil. I understand everything was deep fried but the taste of the oil was very apparent. The food looks better than it tastes. We took the pork filled with cheese, which was ok. & we also tried a garlic spicy chicken which was better. Good amount of chicken in the dish which was good to see. The service however was horrible. The waiter was very hard to talk to. He dropped water on our table & did not apologize. He did not come back to clean it even. We asked for napkins to clean it ourselves, they never came as well. Overall the food was decent but the service was so bad that I would not go there again.
The service was extremely slow. Understaffed. Be willing to wait up to 1 hr before your order is taken. Don't get me wrong though, servers are very nice & do a good job but they need more employees beginning earlier in the day.
The pork Katsu with curry was delicious. Also, the serving of pork is generous, & the meat is so tender. I wish they'd serve it with something other than raw cabbage, but that seems to be the standard way it's served at any katsudon place. They should serve it with tempura vegetables. That being said, as far as shredded, raw cabbage salads go, it was okay - they seasoned it with a light dressing which tasted good, but I'd take a coleslaw over it any day. My other gripe is that they don't provide enough curry (sauce) to go with the meat & rice. Curry is not expensive, so there should be a good amount of it to go with the other elements on the plate - otherwise you're kind of serving an incomplete dish. Thankfully the pork itself was so good, I could look past the shortcomings. Our waitress was attentive & very friendly.
Great food, exactly was expected. I've never been to Japan but the Curry Katsu sauce was better than I imagined. The Takoyakis as an entry are a MUST. Crispy & beautiful presentation. Totally would go back
