Katsu

“Katsu-Hama, pricey but they use berkshire pork! best I’ve had so far in the city”

“Raku and Abiko Curry (katsu with the very best curry).”

“The Katsu is amazing.”

“I love their tonkatsu. It is my favorite ramen in the city.”

“I need that fucking pork katsu sandwich but can’t just be going to Greenpoint all the time. I dream about it.”

“i love their lemon toast, chicken katsu curry, and the mentaiko spaghetti!!”

“I do think the pancakes, katsu club, tuna melt, Thai club salad are some of my favorite things to eat in the city.”

“Sip and guzzle (not a sandwich shop but the best Wagyu katsu sando)”

“These might just be the best chicken nuggets I’ve ever had. I was hanging with the chef/owner Sam the other night and he made these off-menu katsu curry nugs that I’m still thinking about”

“My favorite Tonkatsu in Brooklyn for sure”

“Get the salmon katsu sandwich. Genuinely the BEST sandwich in the city”

“This might be my favorite record bar so far. Bar Orai, located in Midtown Manhattan, offers solid Japanese-style bar food—my favorite was the Katsu Sando.”

“Their chicken katsu sandwich owns though”

“They have great tonkatsu and donburi there if you like cooked Japanese food.”

“All of the Japanese coffee shops do excellent yoshuku lunches (katsu, sandos and the like).”

“Go to Bar Moga. Get the omurice and pork katsu sando.”

“Great pork katsu bento box and others for $17.00”

“I had the pork katsu that was also that rare, and it was excellent. Probably one of the best pork dishes I've ever had.”

“I was particularly impressed by main artery, wings, tail, chicken oyster, breast, thigh katsu, duck/chicken meatball, skin, and chochin (ovary).”

“Very tasty spot. Excellent tonkatsu and lunch specials also”

“that place had a great katsu and was in a cool space. Rip”

“They have wonderful katsu cutlet curry and chige nabe udon.”

“My favorite are the karaage rice ball and the chicken katsu curry.”

“Don’t sleep on Suzume. Their tonkatsu is excellent, as is their salmon ramen.”

“For something more substantial, the katsu pork and chicken are great.”

“Favorite item is the pork katsu!”

“I had the spicy version, which comes on a bun and is topped with pickles and pickled onions. The cutlet itself is thick and freshly fried, though it would be a stretch to call this katsu.”

“My young kids don’t eat sushi but they love the Chicken Katsu and fried (or plain white) rice there.”

“Everyone who says Ippudo is a shadow of what truly great tonkatsu should be names places that I go to and then they're not as good as Ippudo. So I'm no expert, but I sure have failed to beat it.”
