Katsukura Kyoto-st Building Thecube

Super delicious Japanese Tonkatsu restaurant! Having heard about this Japanese restaurant for a while, had only one chance, as there is always a long queue. Recommended! Try Yosanawa Lion.

Good tonkatsu with nice fried batter/crumbs and tender pork. Convenient location at Kyoto station too. The English menu is very helpful.

Loved this place for several reasons: 1. It’s still open in the afternoon so we could avoid the crowds and queue and still have our very late lunch (most restaurants are closed after lunch) 2. Have queued for another famous restaurant in Tokyo before and it didn’t change my mind I still don’t think tonkatsu is worth queueing hours for (just my opinion). The tonkatsu here was great, without having to queue due to 1. 3. The seasonal special yuba was made with very fresh vegetables you can taste the sweetness of the vegetables, a great compliment to the tonkatsu 4. The miso soup was great they added eggplant, a refreshing addition that soaked up the taste, even my husband who doesn’t eat eggplants gladly ate it 5. The location is very convenient! And there’s an English menu instructions for foreigners I’ll be back!

A standard katsu place. The katsu is good, but not to the extend of impressive. It’s like the restaurant you would visit again and again around your home.

The thickest and softest pork chop even made severed with unlimited authentic homemade miso soup, and fresh cabbage! The best meal we had in japan! Long queue, better go earlier!
