Kyoto Katsugyu is a Japanese restaurant that offers a cozy and bright atmosphere, with large tables and friendly customer service. The menu features various dishes, including chicken karage and katsu. Customers praise the food, especially the gyukatsu, which is cooked perfectly, tender, and flavorful. The restaurant also serves onsen egg and different cuts of meat, such as chuck flap, angus sirloin, and even A5 Wagyu set, which is rare and highly valued. Prices vary widely from around $10 for katsu sandwiches to $120 for the premium Wagyu, and the quality of ingredients and service are considered very good, making it a popular spot for repeat visits.
Some customers noted that the appetizer took a while to be served and suggested portions could be larger for the price. The prime ribeye steak is well-cooked, but some parts may be overcooked or undercooked, and the sauces are limited. The rice and poached egg were reported to be cold. Despite this, the interior, Japanese music, and overall atmosphere received praise, creating a pleasant dining experience. Service was described as excellent, with staff handling issues promptly and efficiently. Many customers find the food delicious and the environment warm, though some feel the prices are a bit high for the portions and quality. A few mentioned that the wagyu options can sell out quickly, but the rich miso dipping sauce and the flavors of the dishes remind some of Japan.
Overall, Kyoto Katsugyu offers tasty food and a welcoming environment, with room for improvement in consistency and portion sizes. Visitors especially enjoy the Yuzu beer and onsen egg, and the fast service makes it a favorite for those craving Japanese flavors.
