We stumbled across this little Jim on yelp when we were out drifting our little hearts out. It's an random little strip mall but as soon as you walk through the door, the place is immaculate and the staff are very friendly. I have the ginger, pork and my companion had the teriyaki chicken and both were really good along with our Vietnamese tea and Hamachi hot beverage. Very reasonable price wise and the portions are huge, we will definitely be back soon!

The staff is so nice and polite. Answer my questions and if they didn't know something they asked for me. The food here is also up to par. I haven't had good Japanese curry since I left Hawaii. Highly recommend this restaurant.

I seriously enjoy this place so much! The quality of their katsu sandwiches are so good! I love how they take the edges off and make them as a yummy side dish. I'm looking forward to trying the whole menu. The service is excellent. I forget the name of the young lady that works there, but she's always so sweet and very attentive. She is really fast but when you get your food, you don't feel rushed. The decor is nice and I love the pops of color and the plants. I enjoy supporting local businesses. Try them out!

I love little cafe like Katsuco. They know what they're doing! Their menu isn't so extensive that you're confused at what it is they're specializing in. They have some sandwiches, some bowls, some drinks. Easy! We went inside, were greeted and placed our order at the counter. The girl that helped us were so kind and welcoming. She brought out our drinks and utensils as we sat down. The place has limited seating but it wasn't too crowded when we went for lunch so we managed to get a table and a high chair for our little one. We tried the pork katsudon and the pork Curry bowl. Both were delicious! For the price, the portion and flavors were definitely there! We were satisfied with our lunches as we left. It doesn't over-stuff you and it's still just as satisfying. I'm glad we decided to try out this place. There are plenty of parking in the plaza. The have some relaxed area and some seating areas as well. The place is not too big but it is very cozy and has a warm vibe around it. I'd definitely recommend this place if you're in the area. We'd come back again next time we're in town!

Another excellent cheap eats place in LV . We got the curry bowls, sandos, and two different soups. All of which were great value. I specifically enjoyed my half sando and soup for $9 . The paitan soup was flavorful with a lot of chicken. The sandos were perfectly fried and was quite juicy (both chicken and pork). The curry bowl was filling with the curry not being too overpowering. Good for good value

In my opinion, the food is nothing remarkable. However, there are many reasons I would give this place a 4/5. First, my lunch consisting of a beef teriyaki bowl, chicken katsu bites, and a coke was approximately $15. The value of the food is great if you need an inexpensive lunch that feels complete. Another reason you might want to come here is that the service here is quick, casual, and so friendly. The girl who took my order checked on me multiple times. Lastly, the place is very aesthetic and cute. It's a nice place to hang out so long as you're ok being one of a few people there. While the food did not exceed my expectations, everything else did. That is why I'd want to keep supporting this place.

Stopped in on a Tuesday afternoon, and while we were the only customers there, Katsuco was worthy of a visit. Started with the pork lumpia. Nothing crazy, but they were tasty. Stole one of my buddy's potstickers and it was good as well. I went with a pork katsu bowl and enjoyed it. Lots of flavor, nice serving size and the pickled ginger really made everything pop. I think I'm gonna try chicken katsu next time though because the pork was a bit tougher than I normally like. Overall, there's nothing really unique about this spot, but they're serving some solid food and the prices are right. Service was friendly and the place was clean.
