Nothing but good things to say about this place. Unreal portion sizes and delicious katsu!
This is my go-to spot if I'm craving tonkatsu. I'll usually order the pork/chicken brown katsu, or the teishoku. These usually end up between $18-$21 after tax and cash discount!
It seems pricey, but it's astounding how big the portion sizes are. You get double the amount of meat compared to any other katsu and you're given sides as well (rice, corn, cabbage slaw). Their katsu sauce and spicy mayo are also phenomenal. I'd skip their hot and spicy cheese katsu though--a bit watery due to the vegetables.
Overall, I'd rather pay a few extra dollars and get twice the amount of food than go to another katsu restaurant. The quality might be better at other places, but as far as price-performance goes, this place can't be beat.
I've written a review for their North York location, and this place deserves another one! Come give this place a try.

Came with a group of 8 for a group social, and this restaurant immediately caught our eyes. The portion was so big and worth the price! The food was so delicious I almost wanted to order another one!

I had the pork katsu with the original sauce. The portion was generous, and the taste was great as well! By the time I started on the second piece, the sauce had been mostly absorbed, so I recommend add extra sauce. The staff were attentive and very friendly, which made the experience even better.

The katsu here is amazing! Especially the spicy & cheesy one. The service is great and highly recommend the takoyaki and fried shrimp.

Nice restaurant, friendly staff and good food. Hope to see them one day relocate to a bigger space as they're always packed and busy (in a good way). Would definitely recommend the Hot and Spicy Cheese Tonkatsu.

This is my go-to comfort food. The best portions and very affordable!! You have to try the Curry Katsu Chicken & Shrimp… that’s the Best combination and the curry sauce is worth the hype and definitely worth the wait.

Heard some great things about the tonkatsu. For some reason I thought this dish was Japanese but this Korean spin is pretty awesome
Their fried pork is so crunchy and yummy with their gravy, aka Brown sauce. I had the chupan Teri Katsu and my partner had the Teri tonkatsu. I thought the two were the same, with the only difference being how it was cooked. I was surprised with one Katsu on a iron skillet of mixed sizzling veggies. I thought it would have been sizzling rice and two Katsu like my partner's .
But anyways both were still yummy to eat, the serving size is reasonable for the price you pay and the service was good.
High likelihood we will come back again. Being located in first Markham place make sure you bring your patience as well as your hunger as parking is always a challenge.

This place is hands down the best, i mean the absolute best donkaktsu place in town. Just order any item on the menu and you will love it. I dont know what the secret is but i live in london ontario but i come all the way here just to eat here fairly often. That explains a lot i believe. It will be a crime if I dont mentiom about their ramen game. If you like ramen, look no further. I dont fake my reviews as I have no reason to do and this place somehow managed to create the best donkatsu and ramen. The soup, noodles, side dishes, all are perfect. Again, if you like donkatsu or ramen, please give this place a try. Theres is a reson why some comments mentioned that this place is busy.
+i have 10 months old baby and staffs were very kind to assist our needs. Baby chair, little spoon with a bowl, lovely smiles. Great staffs
Nothing about the ramen is authentic , I found ginger and bok choy in my ramen?? and also the meat is very dry. Considering they charge similar prices to authentic Japanese ramen restaurants, I would personally avoid one if you love ramen.

Usually love going here— the food is good. Today we went and were told it would be a 45-50 minute wait so we put our number down and walked around. Found somewhere else to sit down and have a light snack in the mean time. After about MAYBE 15 minutes they called and asked if we are still waiting, we replied “yes”. When we asked much longer the wait would be they told us a table is ready. Since we just sat down and ordered food elsewhere we politely let them know we didn’t need a table anymore. The reply? “Thanks for wasting our time.” Rude, unprofessional, bitter. Beware the lady on the phone.

Wanted to like the katsudon but thought it was just okay. The katsu was too mushy and soft for my liking

Absolutely massive portions. 2 girls shared a carbonara katsu plate and we had leftovers. Food wise it was good but the carbonara was a little one note. Katsuya’s carbonara is better imo, but brown donkatsu has bigger portions and less pricy. Maybe the other flavours are better. Still worth it though! They do charge extra for additional rice and salad portions.
