Bidra med feedbackKatsu Bar in Orange County offers a very casual experience for those craving a katsu fix. The restaurant's ambiance is functional, providing a casual setting. The katsu sando, the main attraction, was pretty good. The bread was adequately toasted, and the katsu had a satisfying crunch, though I found it a bit heavier on the oil than my personal preference. The meat was cooked well, but it reached the level of tenderness I've experienced in higher-rated establishments. The accompanying sauce was pleasant as well.The cauliflower fries had a light, crispy exterior that made them quite enjoyable. The seasoning was subtle, allowing the natural flavors of the cauliflower to shine through. The dish was a refreshing departure from traditional potato fries and added a welcomed touch of health-conscious variety to the meal.
I used to order here a lot, but stopped ever since they started skimping on portions. The Katsu Curry Bowl was an awesome takeout order, but they've removed it from the menu in favor of the Katsu Curry Plate which tries to distract you with salads sides and bigger packaging, but is considerably less filling. It's extremely disappointing.Their newer menu items are also hit-or-miss, such as their katsudon where they overcook the egg to the point of being dry. Katsudon egg should not be overcooked. Why bother adding it to the menu if you're going to do it wrong?Overall, the food is tasty if you're ordering their staples. But don't be surprised if it doesn't fill your stomach.
The curry and katsu were super delicious. I could not get enough of the katsu.... Mine was chicken and it came with a salad and vinaigrette, some coleslaw, and carrot mixed with daikon and of course the curry in a small container. It was all very neatly packaged and when I dug in I was super pleased with how crunchy the chicken katsu was and how good the curry sauce was. The waffle fries were 8 dollars and kinda pricy but really yummy. Super crispy and flavorful. I look forward to coming back!
Smooth check out experience, modern.Do note that the Rose items on the menu are not available on the online menu, so you must get those in person.
Since my favorite mom and pop place closed down I've been craving Japanese curry but couldn't find a place until I came here. Great food and reminds me of great Japanese curry. Good find.
