We had such a great waitress, so friendly and knowledgeable. The food was hot and fresh, I had the Garlic pork Ramen, it tasted great talk about hit the spot for a soup on a cold day. Prices where a lil to high for the encomy we’re in. We went around lunch time, very quiet atmosphere, people where not talking loud. Cute lil restaurant to have lunch or dinner at. When we went to leave the manager came up and gave us a mint, she was such a sweet lady. Overall we will definitely be back.

The waiter will introduce you to the delicious starters and main courses in detail. I have tried most of the dishes and they are all very good. The hostess will also ask the guests how the food is. It feels like family. Highly recommended 10/10

Wow !!!! Katzu is an absolute gem! I tried their Chicken Katzu Ramen Bowl, Fried Chicken Bowl, Beef Tzaki, Miso Soup, and Matcha Tea… and honestly, everything was incredible. The Beef Tzaki (I don’t exactly remember the second name) was out of this world, so good that we ended up ordering it twice! The ramen was rich and flavorful, the fried chicken was perfectly crispy, and the miso soup and matcha tea tied it all together beautifully.
On top of the amazing food, the service was warm and attentive, and the prices were super reasonable. It’s rare to find a place that nails both quality and value like this. I’m already planning my next visit !!!

The pork buns are really good. The Ramen is ok I had the seafood and my son had the spicy. The taste was nothing exceptional but it was ok. Sushi was pretty good. I felt like the price was higher for what it was. $15 plus for just a bowl of Ramen

I used to just DoorDash this place but I’m so happy I came in to eat. The food was delicious. The servers and host are friendly and very knowledgeable. They make you feel like a friend and they are very genuine. I had the spicy miso with Black garlic oil added and it was AMAZING. It came out super fast and was piping hot. I’m pretty sure they cook all ingredients fresh by the Order. I highly recommend stopping by!

Food was fine. Service was okay. But a couple of hours later all three of us that ate there became terribly sick. My partner and I had to go to the ER in the morning, we almost took an ambulance. My partner drove while vomiting with 104 degree fever. He needed iv, reglan, and several other meds. We both developed horrible cramping in our stomachs. I had a headache that lasted for 18 hours and vomiting. I was having trouble breathing. We were tested for flu, COVID, etcetera. All negative
Doctor said it was food poisoning. I am feeling a little better. My partner is still sick in bed with a fever. My friend is just feeling under the weather. Yesterday, I felt like I was going to die. I had to call off work. My copay was $426. His copay was $125. All because someone could not wash their hands or serve fresh food. My guess is, because of level of sickness in each person – that the culprit was the vegetable ramen. Very upsetting.

The service was great. The restaurant gives an amazing, ambient atmosphere. I haven’t yet tried all of their entrees, so far from what I’ve had is astounding and succulent. I highly recommend the Spicy Beef Ramen.

Katsu just vaulted to the top of my lunch time list. We started with the jalapeño bombs which were crispy, golden, and absolutely loaded, with just the right kick and a creamy finish that kept us reaching for one more. The takoyaki were textbook: pillowy inside, delicately crisp outside, brushed with savory sauce.
The star of the night for me was the spicy miso beef ramen: deep, rich broth with real miso depth, a slow-building heat, and tender beef that soaked up every ounce of flavor and absolutely tender. The noodles we perfectly cooked and the eggs were unlike anything I have ever tried; perfect yolk and texture that absorbed all of the flavors surrounding it.
Huge shoutout to our waiter, Morgan. Friendly, knowledgeable, and effortless under pressure—Morgan paced our meal perfectly, kept drinks topped off, and gave spot-on recommendations. Little touches—checking heat levels, timing dishes so nothing sat—made the service feel genuinely a delightful experience.
Bottom line: Katsu nails flavor, texture, and hospitality. Come hungry, trust Morgan’s suggestions, and don’t skip the jalapeño bombs or the spicy miso beef ramen. We’ll be back soon. 10/10 lunch/service/atmosphere/food.

I walked into Katsu Ramen Bar just to pick up a to-go order and left feeling sick to my stomach. While I was waiting, a former employee came in to get her final paycheck, and the owner completely humiliated her in front of everyone. He said they “only used her” and called her dumb and useless like it was nothing.
I was standing there shocked, uncomfortable, and honestly angry. That kind of disrespect is disgusting and says everything about this place. If this is how they treat their employees, I don’t want their food. I will never come back, and I strongly suggest you don’t waste your money supporting a business that treats people this horribly
