The food was fresh and delicious, and the service was impeccable. The black katsu was crispy.
The sauce was sweet and perfectly Japanese.
The rice was perfect.
The tuna tataki had a smoky flavor, and the ponzu sauce was authentic, with a hint of gas oven. We waited about 15 minutes, but it was worth it.
Staff were incredibly kind and attentive. They made us feel very welcome.
Food came out quickly and tasted great!
Highly recommend!
Before: This is truly a restaurant that doesn’t deserve even one star.
We had a reservation, yet upon arrival they told us we’d have to wait 20 minutes, which is completely unacceptable. When I asked why they hadn’t mentioned this on the phone in advance, the owner started yelling, saying they were “doing their best” and even implying they didn’t want to give us a table.
Even more concerning, our child has epilepsy, so we can’t afford to miss or significantly delay meal times. We explained this as well and asked whether it wouldn’t have been appropriate to inform us over the phone in advance that there would be a wait.
Since it was New Year’s Day, we didn’t want to go elsewhere and reluctantly stayed. Unfortunately, the food was just as bad. The gyukatsu came out with the breading completely falling off, and the udon, which we ordered hot, was served cold.
They kept saying that “even with a reservation, this place always makes people wait over 20 minutes,” so consider this a warning.
After yelling at us earlier, the owner later came over and offered free fried dumplings as “service,” and said they wouldn’t charge a wine corkage fee. When we said it was fine, they oddly asked why we wouldn’t accept their apology—after never properly apologizing in the first place.
The owners seem to be a couple, and the entire experience was absolutely awful.
Ending New Year’s Day at what was honestly the worst restaurant experience of my life completely ruined the day.
The Udon was good. I definitelt recommend getting the Gyukastu with Udon.The gyukatsu had a good serving size maybe 0.75 lbs of ribeye beef, but it was lean. I would guess they use USDA Select since parts were tough to eat.The rice was hard, it either needed more water or needed to be cooked longer. I normally love eatinf rice, but this was literally too hard to eat.
They seemed to be short staffed on the day we went, so some problems could be attributed to that. I would definitelt give them another try.
Service: 5/5 to preface im a server and bartender, this might be the best service given to me at any spot. the servers were all helpful and got us anything we needed.
food: 5/5 legitimately the best katsu and yaniku spot i’ve eaten in my life and i’ve been to japan before :0
overall, i would recommend anyone to come try this hidden gem. I would come back here every week if i could but sadly live in san diego
Service was prompt and very friendly. Checked in on us many times. Loved that they have water at the table for us (KBBQ style) also.
Overall score was for value. I think I’ve had better katsu, but for $15, it’s a no brainer. We will also have to come after 4pm for the Izakaya. I have a feeling that’s their specialty.
And let’s talk about the food! We had the Rib-Eye, and all I have to say is WOW. It was cooked perfectly, incredibly tender, and seasoned to absolute perfection. Seriously one of the best steaks I’ve had in a long time.
If you’re looking for a top-notch meal in the area, this place is a must-try in Cerritos! Highly, highly recommend!
Today, we ordered gyoza and shrimp, was also crispy and tasty.
Anyways, meat quality is awesome, so tender and tastes so good, ribeye is my favorite.
Overall, awesome dining experience, and everyone is so nice and sincere.
