Katsu Sando – Review – Chinatown – Los Angeles – The Infatuation

Katsu Sando is a fantastic shop in Chinatown that makes giant sandos on housemade milk bread.

Ordered on door dash and I was immediately pleased with my first bite. The katsu was fried perfectly and the small side dishes were wonderful. Quality miso soup, flavorful curry, well seasoned fries. 10/10 highly recommend!

I AM TELLING YOU, Katsu Sando is undeniably so freaking good. Regardless of the location, the food is done so well and the service is always so quick as well.

I fell in love with the San Gabriel location and after talking to one of the members of the owning family, I followed their IG and saw that they were opening one in Chinatown. Lots of respect to opening their second location in a dying neighborhood. It’s great to see business trying to revive Chinatown.

The food came out so hot and was delicious. I could tell they used better quality eggs as the egg yolk was a darker orange color. Tater tots were fried to a perfect crisp.

Will be coming back soon.

We were very looking forward to Katsu Sando and were a little let down with their signature item. We ordered the pork katsu sando ($13.95) and snow crab korrokke roll ($19.95). The pork katsu sando was fatty, so BF spent a good amount of time separating the fat from the meat. The snow crab was our favorite of the two and pretty fresh.

It’s pretty small inside for dining, as they have a long table against the window for you to enjoy your order right then and there, albeit standing. Not ideal for large groups, so it’s more of a grab and go place. We were hoping this to satisfy our Japan sando cravings, but it’s not quite up to the real deal in Japan.

Parking can be hard here if you come during peak times. Try street parking or one of the paid lots.

Holy wow this place was DELICIOUS! I got the shrimp sando and my friend got the chicken sando (he had never heard of or had a sandwich like that before and still talks about to this day). The shrimp sando was soooo good! Perfectly worked with walnuts and a light sweet glaze. The whole sandwich was constructed nicely and didn’t fall apart. We got cheese waffle fries and curry to share, omg it was so good. The spicy dipping sauce they give is so very nice! 10/10 experience. We ate standing with was nice because we work in an office, the ambiance in the location was really nice, it’s small and you will miss it if you are paying attention. Free parking in that area in general at certain times of the day is awful so be prepared to pay for it. I’ll definitely be back when I’m in the area.

It’s a good spot for hungers on a day out in Chinatown. The walnut shrimp sando is delicious, and paired with a chilled drink it’s a pretty good combination. The chicken sando gave generous portion of chicken and the bread stayed crispy. The OMG sauce is a light spicy blend but didn’t give enough flavor bombing as Dave’s or Daybird’s sauce. The chizu fries have nori flakes and kewpie mayo seasoned on top with a tub of nacho cheese Japanese curry fusion sauce (a ton of sauce). Also generously sized. But the chicken sandwich and fries didn’t blow us away. You’ll need to ask for napkins and utensils. Altogether two sandwiches, fries, and a drink came out to $42, which seems to hit the pricier sandwich stops.

️Ordered:
1. Honey walnut shrimp sando
2. Pork katsu sando
3. Mont Blanc kakigori

The shrimp sando was rly unique as I’ve never had a fried shrimp sandwich like this before. The shrimp was tender & the honey walnuts added a beautiful sweetness and crunchiness to the dish.
Originally I wanted to try this place for their kakigori but I was pretty let down by it the ice was pretty melted already and the water chestnut purée wasn’t my favorite..

Overall, I think I hyped this place up a lot in my head but it didn’t really live up to it when I finally tried it. Would probably order the shrimp sandwich again if I ever crave it.

Tips:
-There’s no seating here so be prepared to either get it to go or door dash!
-wouldn’t recommend this place with a big group unless you did a picnic at a park nearby

Price:
$45 for meal ( )

I saw they were hosting a pick up only special pork and cheese sando and I had already been planning a visit so the stars aligned.

The sandwich was huge! And very tasty. The cheese was generous and was spilling over. Easily the messiest (in a good way) sandwich I ever ate in my car. I’ll need to get a tray to stash in my car for meals like this.

To go with the sandwich I had a side of curry dip. It was addictive but also was a big reason why this was a messy meal.

I also tried the chicken sando. Very tasty.

Everything was fresh, very filling and very tasty.

This is straight food review based on having this delivered from Caviar/Doordash! I can’t fairly rate the atmosphere and service here on Google. Even with an average wait of about ~45 minutes from order placement to delivery, the food was still warm and fresh feeling!

I scarfed down the mushroom katsu sando, and their whole crispy and lightly fried portobello mushroom is meaty and satisfying. It really was quite a filling meal-sized sandwich on its own and the frisee, yuzu-kosho slaw, katsu sauce, and true star of the show: the honey milk bread made it a sandwich worthy of reviewing. I can’t wait to go back and try the chicken katsu sando.

I had some green tea to drink and the addictive wagyu curry cheese fries. The kewpie mayo and aonori elevate the seasoned fries.

Their house sauce was addictive and I spread it on my sandwich and fries. It’s spicy and deliciously subtly sweet, and they use gochujang, mayo, and citrus. I’ll be back to scope out this place in person!

Went yesterday and they were pretty busy so the wait time was maybe like 10 mins not too bad at all! The aesthetic of the place / marketing is really cute that’s why it caught my eye. I’m a vegetarian so I got the mushroom Sando ~ overall it was good! I’m surprised they used portabello mushroom instead of oyster, it was still good not soggy. I do think the sandwiches could use a little more sauce, I think I just had ketchup on mine. It was pretty good overall but I feel like for the price it could be even better!

A fantastic sandwich. Well seasoned shrimp with a sweet hint of honey, crispy slaw, and a nice dipping sauce with some heat. Casual spot with a little bar to eat your food, very lively on a Saturday.
