A great addition for hearty Japanese food in Ktown. Their seasonal cold citrus soba was amazing, great chew and the brightness of the citrus was so refreshing during a hot summer day. Their seasonal smoked tonkatsu was great, huge potion to share as an appetizer and the charred veggies with bbq and mustard sauces were a usual yet great combo of flavors. Would recommend!

The Order (Takeout): I placed a takeout order for four people, getting the Regular Donkatsu (pork cutlet) and the Combo with Soba. • Service: The service was impressive. I requested a specific pickup time, and the food was packed and ready exactly on time. Food & Value: The food is solid. It was "ok to enjoy"—meaning it satisfies the craving for a standard, crispy Donkatsu, even if it isn't the fanciest version in town. The price was reasonable, making it a good value for a family meal. Logistics & Availability: • Parking: A major plus is the plenty of parking available, making pickup easy. • Holiday Hours: The biggest benefit is that they seem to be open on almost any holiday, which is a lifesaver when other places are closed. Verdict: A dependable spot for a reasonably priced, punctual meal. Great for a quick family dinner on a busy night or holiday. Staff was ok but neither friendly or professional.

Behind this longtime favorite is a story of grit, family, and flavor — Owner Jane, a single mom who journeyed from South Korea in the ’90s, took a chance on a sleepy neighborhood spot and turned it into a katsu haven. For decades, she’s poured heart and hustle into every batch, drawing in regulars with crispy cutlets and a secret sauce that keeps folks coming back. I still miss their Wilshire location, but I’m so glad they’re still around. Their katsu game remains strong — consistently crispy, juicy, and satisfying. Lately, they’ve leveled up with smoky donkatsu and a late-night menu that keeps fans coming back. Food: 4/5 - Pork, chicken, and curry katsu (カツ) are still my go-to classics. - The hamburger cutlet (ハンバーグカツ) has an interesting texture — not quite a burger patty, but definitely worth a try. Service: 3/5 Pretty average service — food arrives quickly, but no real check-ins or follow-up after that. Parking: 3/5 (Difficult) They used to share parking with a nearby building, but that’s no longer the case. Street parking is available, though it can be hit or miss depending on the time of day.

We parked in the street next door, and we were able to get in without an issue. The waiter is chill but experienced, and everything came out super quickly. All of the portions were generous and delicious. Only thing would be that my tonkatsu was soggy at the bottom. Would visit again!

The menu is a beautiful lie. The portions are wonderful when you are craving tons of cutlet goodness. The staff is super friendly/chill yet on top of everything to make the overall exp that much better :D
