Curry is really good. I also tried cheese katsu, it was ok. I like curry better than cheese katsu.
Miso soup was extraordinary.

Katsu lovers should rejoice that there is such a place at Saku. The presentation, the taste, the service was all top notch.
Unlimited salad and rice for gluttons. I was skeptical at first of the salad but soon learnt to really enjoy it. As for the Katsu, hands down, best I’ve ever had.
The Katsu shrimp was also divine.

Exceptional restaurant - absolute perfection!!
I had the passion fruit ice tea and the cheese and pork dish. Wow!!! Everything was so delicious my mind was blown!!
I loved the free refills of the side dishes. The salad was so good I couldn’t stop eating it.
All of the servers were very friendly and showed me how to eat all the food and what to mix, etc.
I love this place so much!!!!

This place was incredible. Entered the waitlist about 30 minutes before walking over (highly recommend doing this) and arrived just in time for the table to be ready!
The katsu was incredible: perfectly fried but still juicy on the inside. As other reviews mention the rice, soup and salad are refillable at no extra cost. Appreciated the extremely patient waitress walking me through all the condiments and the right way to eat katsu.
This place definitely hit the spot!

This was my favorite restaurant during my trip to vancouver. Very good prices for everything. They accommodated my child's egg and peanut allergy beautifully. He ate the kids meal no issue. It was also a lot of food for a kid's menu item, I was kind of blown away. I'd recommend The Zenbu Katsu which is pretty much the combo platter. We came during fairly peak times and waited about 20 minutes for our table. My biggest regret for my trip was not coming back here for round 2.

Got a text my table was ready. Walked in, and suddenly my name had “disappeared” from the waitlist (though I saw it right there on their iPad). Instead of seating us, they stuck us at the bottom again. Showed them the confirmation text and got a shrug. Trash place, trash service.

Love the free refills on miso, rice, and salad! Went to another tonkatsu place just a few days before where you pay only $2.99 for unlimited refills on the same sides so it was totally worth going here to get the free refills. The curry was amazing paired with the pork katsu, and their passionfruit tea soda was super refreshing.

Some of the best Katsu I've ever had! If you're a katsu lover, I would recommend the Zenbu Katsu platter. You get a taste of all the different types they have to offer.

I don't usually visit a restaurant more than once, but Saku's one of the few exceptions. I keep coming back for the cheese katsu. It tastes just as good every time. They have free miso soup, salad, and rice refills. The meals are not cheap (hence the free refills), but you'll get your money's worth depending on your appetite. Place is suitable for solo diners, couples, and groups. It's always clean and the staff are friendly and attentive. They ensure first time patrons are up to speed about the best way to go about eating the meal. I recommend checking it out. Expect a lineup if you're coming during peak times.

Incredible Tonkatsu ! The best I have ever had ! The quality of everything was outstanding and the waiters were so incredibly nice ! Many sides are refillable for free. The summer lemonade especially the yuzu one were hitting the spot ! Go there, you will love it

We had reservations and waited for our table. We ordered the pumpkin croquette, rosu katsu, hire katsu, kake udon, and the mini hire katsu combo for little one. The food was fantastic. It's probably the best katsu I've had outside of Japan. Highly recommended!

I cannot comment on the food from my own experience due to factors beyond my control, but I can talk first hand about the service. Due to an allergy to shell fish, the staff provided the most accommodating service one can ask for. Not one or two but three different servers came and asked me questions then explained every dish to me just to ensure I did not get sick. This is a service I can safely recommend to anyone who is looking for a good place to eat.
