I ordered pork tender katsu and fried oysters set for lunch. Pork tender was good however oysters were tiny and not fresh at all..Service was just fair, not usual Japanese serviceParking: If you park nearby, you can redeem free parking at the restaurant
This Tonkatsu (pork cutlet) is pretty amazing. The pork is very thick and soft. Crispy outside. Just great matching. Whenever I want Tonkatsu in LA, I come here because this best Tonkatsu in LA.

Good food but maybe not the absolute greatest; reasonably priced.
The cuisine here is genuinely authentic Japanese, and as someone of Japanese heritage, I am thoroughly impressed with the overall quality. While I haven't explored other dining options in the area, I'm confident in recommending this establishment as a solid choice. One point to note, however, is that the service might not meet everyone's high expectations. Additionally, it's important to be aware that the restroom facilities are not accessible to the public.

I never leave reviews but I just want to say they have the best Katsudon in Little Tokyo. People seem to be giving this place lower marks because of the atmosphere but honestly the food makes up for literally everything.

So happy to get Katsu that’s almost as good as those in Katsu restaurants in Japan.
We were just walking past while exploring Little Tokyo and found this gem!Delicious Loin Katsu, Salmon Roll and Black Pork Sausage - would recommend! Edamame was average, but still nice overall ❤️

The pork katsu curry was fantastic! Really crispy, great quality meat, and the curry was a nice thick consistency. The potato croquette was also very tasty and well fried. But the shrimp tempura was very undercooked, with the batter still goey under a first layer of very pale and chewy batter. It was super disappointing, but everything else was so good I'll consider it a fluke. Overall I'd come back to try more from their menu.
