The concept of katsu and burgers together might sound strange but seems to me like a match made in 'burger' heaven! My first time here and I decided to go big! Got the Tokyo Tower. The beef katsu was perfectly cooked, crispy on the outside and juicy and tender inside. It's layered with tomato, Japanese mayo, tonkatsu sauce. This is a monster so I had it cut in two. Very satisfying. I passed on the fries. Have heard good things about their nori fries with your choice of dipping sauce. I didn't say no to their milkshake though. Got the black sesame. It is more of a custard. It's creamy, lightly sweet, and a great pairing with the savory food. Sort of tasted like an Oreo milkshake and who doesn't like that? Ordering is easy. You order at the counter, they bring the food to your table, and you bus your own table afterward. Lots of seating. Service is always friendly and efficient. They have multiple locations throughout WA state and I have heard the one in Georgetown has the "Wagyu" for an upcharge. Overall a delicious Japanese take on burger and well worth trying. Next time I am going bigly (Mt. Fuji) and hopefully I am alive after that to update this review lol read more

Tip: check out the lunch deal on DoodDash I got takeout of the Samurai Select with Pork Katsu, and a side of nori fries. The burger is pretty big, the katsu is delicious. The wasabi sauce is strong. I was hoping the burger would be sweeter because of the pineapple, but it wasn't. The fries was decent but nothing special. A good value for the price if you are craving a burger with an Asian twist. read more

First time visiting. If you enjoy katsu, this place is for you! Roomy with several tables and chairs and stools at the counter to sit at. You place your order at the counter using a kiosk or at a register with an employee. Our to-go order consisted of an assortment including the ohayou gozaimasu with 2 100% grass fed beef katsu patties, fried egg, bacon, red onion, pickles, tonkatsu sauce, Japanese mayo, cheddar cheese and shredded cabbage on grilled buns. This sandwich was HUGE, just look at the picture below! We also ordered the teriyaki chicken katsu with 2 pineapple rings, 2 patties, Japanese mayo, shredded cabbage, red onion, pickles on grilled buns. Again, another HUGE sandwich....plenty of leftovers. We added orders of fries seasoned with sea salt, and an order of combo banzai bits (chicken and pork). Added a side order of wasabi coleslaw, something I had never tried or thought of before. I was concerned it might be too hot for me, but it wasn't. It was mild, drier than coleslaw I'm familiar with. I truly enjoyed the addition of edamame. Great way to add protein and I look forward to trying this in future recipes. We also ordered one black cherry fountain drink with terragon that was delicious and refreshing. It wasn't a very long wait for the order to be completed. Restaurant was clean and orderly. Food was good, I'm just not a huge fried or processed food person. My husband really enjoyed his meal though. Servings very very large. Price was a little higher than I'd like for a gourmet burger/fast food atmosphere. 3.5-4.0 star range imo. read more

I have always loved Katsu Burger and I love that they've expanded so much over the last 15 years to be in more places than just SoDo. Hate that the one in Ballard closed, but I get it. The fries and sauce options are unique and all of them are tasty. The burgers are huge and filling. I do wish they would toast the bun so it doesn't get soggy, but with good sauce, something is bound to get soggy. Great business, great vibes, great people, wonderful food and milkshakes. read more

I haven't been to Katus burger in a few years and on my way down to Tacoma, stopped by with a friend. I ordered the Samurai Katsu and she ordered the burger that was one up from mine. I made one adjustment to my order, from beef katsu to pork. My friend ended up making more which included chicken katsu instead of beef. Instead of using our names or giving numbers, this location relies on the cashier to just know. The issue with that is that it does seem more accident prone. Instead of getting the expected burger, my friend ended up with the same one as me but without tomato. It took a while to put that together because it was her first time. I also wasn't of help because I honestly didn't remember what she had ordered. The burger is good, the wasabi mayo does hit you in the nose when the sauce is a bit heavier. Overall it's still good but be sure to be on know your order because of how they do dine in order. read more

Found through Yelp. Upon entering you will see an anime vibe and K Pop music. I enjoyed the Tokyo Classic. Burger was served in a red basket tray with fries. Very 50's dinner feel. The burger was packed full of flavor and fries hit the spot. Service was friendly and quick. Enjoyed my visit. Thank you Katsu Burger. read more

Katsu Burger - Curry Katsu w/12spice fries. - Burgers Near Me - Federal Way, Washington

Five stars for consistency and deliciousness. We come here at least twice a month for a beef Wabi Wasabi and 12 spice fries. The burgers are perfectly breaded with you guessed it Katsu. So crispy and makes your meat of choice super moist even when you order it well done which we do for beef. The portions are big enough that my wife and I split a burger combo with fries and a drink. There are other combo options to add fries and coleslaw and or banzai bites. Always busy but they get you in and out with quality food every time. read more

Elevated fast food, nice twist on an American classic meal. I got the teriyaki chicken sandwich and it was quite tasty and filling. I also sumo-sized it: loved the 12 spice fries with the wasabi mayo, the wasabi coleslaw was good, and I didn't need the bonsai bites (decent, but nothing special and very filling). Atmosphere is a little nicer than typical fast food joints and the service was pleasant. read more

Overall, great experience. read more

We went with high hopes given the five star reviews from Yelpers but sadly we were disappointed. The place is nice and clean and was totally empty when we went in. There were a few folks that came in for to go orders but not many so perhaps the quality has gone down since some of the reviews were posted. I opted for the teriyaki chicken burger. It came on a nice bun which I ended up taking off because it was just too much bread, pickles, onion, tomato, shredded cabbage and sauce of which there wasn't enough. All I could taste was the deep fried breading. My husband had the Tokyo Classic which is said was ok but again not enough sauce to cut through the breading. We upgraded and had fries with our meal which were supposed to be sea salt but there was no taste of salt at all. Hubs had the seasonal milkshake which was cookies and cream. I tasted it and thought it decent. Super thick so you really needed a spoon to eat instead of drink it. Will we go back, probably not. read more

Katsu Burger - Teriyaki burger and fries - Burgers Near Me - Federal Way, Washington

I rolled into Katsu Burger in Federal Way like a Seattle snob craving something different--and I was not disappointed. The miso-glazed Tofu Burger--a crisp, eggless tempura patty drizzled in honey-miso mustard--was surprisingly noble, messy in that "I-want-more" way . My sidekick, the SamuraiSelect, delivered a flavor tag‑team: bacon and pineapple tangoing with wasabi‑mayo and tangy tonkatsu sauce--sweet, bracing, maybe too clever, but it works . The joint's vibe leans casual--trays, anime posters elbowing each other on the walls--and the staff greeted me like I'd just spotted a unicorn in Snohomish. Service was breezy and chipper, fries still hot and Instagram-ready. Tables and bathroom were dirty and sticky which my only complaint and the only reason why I'm not giving it 5 stars. Quirky, greasy, and weirdly charming--like Seattle, but with a tempura twist. read more

Got food poisoning last weekend at this federal way location! Been sick all this week! Will never give my money to this establishment again! First sign was the tables were dirty, after eating had to use the bathroom and they are filthy dirty, they are for both genders, like you are going into a gas station bathroom, they had old throw up on brushes next to the toilet brush and plunger, that alone tells me how there kitchen is, VERY DIRTY! Don't go here, unless you want to get sick! DISGUSTING PLACE! read more

They need to clean their fryer oil... the breading was really dark and tasted like old burned fried food

Heard a lot of good about this restaurant. However, our food was pretty bland and couldn't really taste the meat of the burger. Fries were generic and overly cooked (similar to In n Out IMO). Inside floor was very sticky. Service was fine. read more

The menu enticed me and it offered a lot of different flavors. I came during lunch and noticed there were only about 2-3 employees working. Although it looked like there wasn't much staff, food got delivered quickly and staff were friendly. I got the curry katsu burger. I expected it to have curry sauce but it was curry powder. The burger was pretty good with all the flavors and came with cabbage, tomato, pickle, and red onion as standard toppings. Overall good but nothing special. I also got curry fries and they were just okay as well. read more

My daughter treated me the Katsu burger. This was my first try. It's ok, not for me. It was heavy for me and ended up getting full by half way. It got saltier the more I ate it. My daughter liked though. It's for some of us, unfortunately not for me. The fries were good, don't eat too much fries. I'll have to try other sandwiches. read more

Love the pork Katsu burger. The only thing they could do better is open a spot in Tacoma.

I didn't have very high expectations but, YIKES! What does anyone like about this place except the bottled tea? It smells of old grease from the fryer. Although friendly service is slow. The deep fried burgers are overcooked and greasy! The tables were not wiped down and some of the booths have torn/shredded vinyl seats. I wouldn't ever go back. read more

The food was good with the crunchy patty. It smelled good too. Can't wait for another one.

My "manager" mentioned about eating at this place which allowed me to put this chain store on my radar. Weirdly enough, my friend suggested this place when I met up with him! The location that we went to is next to Mud Bay pet supply store in the SeaTac Village Center at Federal Way. There's a parking lot with ample parking that won't ever be a problem. The interior is cute with cartoons and Japanese anime. I got the Wabi Wasabi burger with beef katsu and seasoned fries with curry dipping sauce (whaaat!). The burger was relatively big and the concept was super interesting. I was used to the tonkatsu sandwiches from Japan that seeing this concept into a burger form was pretty cool. The beef katsu was tender and crispy. Delicious with the wasabi aioli which was a little overwhelming as the wasabi kept making my nose have that weird itchy feeling. The fries with the curry dipping sauce, though, omg. REALLY good. Can't believe they made a curry dipping sauce, GENIUS. I also got the kinako black sesame milkshake which was alright. I didn't expect the black sesame to be actual sesame for some reason. Assumed it would be the powder version to mix with the milkshake. Probably won't find anywhere else, so props to originality! This chain restaurant is very original. Having the concept similar to the Japanese tonkatsu sandwiches into burgers with unique sauces and milkshake flavors is genius. Definitely a place to try! read more

I think I just don't like the food itself. It was very heavy and a lot of bread on bread. I think I would like a Katsu pork or chicken better. That's typically what I'm used to when eating katsu and the Godzilla burger was a beef patty, so it tasted kind of odd that it's fried. I might give them another shot with a pork or chicken katsu burger. The wasabi cole slaw was okay. I think they can be a little more heavy handed with the wasabi to get more flavor. It was just kind of subtle and l felt like I had to search for the taste. read more

Great katsu burgers!! I had chicken katsu with mushrooms & it was really tasty. The burgers are huge & flavorful! I took the other half of my burger home. Also had the 12 spice fries which were quite good. The sesame shake was a nice change of pace and I enjoyed it. The location we went to was in an industrial area and wasn't very busy. We opted to eat in and there was lots of open seating, so it worked out perfectly for our party of 5. read more

I've been to the Katsu Burger in Seattle in Capitol Hill but that was several years ago. Since then one has opened up in Federal Way and I just went here recently. My first Katsu experience I felt that the burgers were large but this time around I thought they were a much more reasonable size. I got their Tokyo Classic Burger and really liked it a lot. The breading on the burger was so good and all of the ingredients so very fresh. Steve and I also split an order of fries and dipped it in a Wasabi sauce. Very refreshing with how the food wasn't very greasey at all. Steve had a good pork burger and it too was pretty impressive. Also scored a t shirt which I don't think was available the first time I went so that was an additional plus! Love the idea of going back to try their other burger options read more

We came in on Sunday afternoon. It was busy! But we were able to place our order and choose our seats within 2 minutes. We ordered a Godzilla Burger each. I had mine without cheese but with everything else. This burger was spicy, flaky and fantastic. It was stacked so high! This burger was packed with flavor and texture. 12 Spice fries-these are in standard fry shape, but the spice blend on them was divine. They were actually spicy on their own, but we enjoyed them more with their nori ranch and curry mayo. Their artwork and decorations were so cool too! The aesthetic of the restaurant was unique and fun. The feedback I have/changes I would make: There were a lot of tables that were not clean or still had dishes on them. I think that Katsu Burger could use some signage that explicitly requests the patrons bus their own tables, because it increases the likelihood people will do so. We are always happy to bus our own and we did, but many people didn't. There was an out of date COVID log at the front of cashier. I think it's really great to have this in order to track potential exposures! But with that being said, exposures from September 2022 won't be relevant in January going on February 2023. I think with logs like these, making sure that they are regularly changed is good. With these things being said, they get 5 stars because we only saw two people running Katsu burger at this time. They did the right thing and prioritized the quality of the food. We loved our food and will be coming back. They nailed the flavor and the quality of the food despite being understaffed-I will take slower and exceptional service over rushed and incomplete any day. Shoutout to the location as well: you can do Trader Joe's, Mudbay, TJ Maxx, and Home Goods amongst others with the same (free!) parking spot. read more

The katsu is perfectly breaded and juicy, tender delicious. The toppings were fresh. The sauces were flavorful. Loved the flavored fries and different dipping option.

First up, Stubborn Sodas are great. I had a fantastic pineapple cream soda. Wow. We were in Fed Way for a quick H-Mart run and decided to grab a dinner to take home since we didn't want to cook. We grabbed two Tokyo Classics and a Ninja Deluxe to go, all ichi-ban with fries. The two Tokyo Classics were upgraded to shakes: Green Tea and Black Sesame. We tried three different fries seasonings and some sauces. I know one seasoning was curry (because it was mine). Not 100% sure what the girls ordered. The curry fries are great! I paired them with Japanese Mayo (because Mayo and fries are the way). The Ninja Deluxe was awesome! A perfectly fried katsu cutlet with gravy AND cheddar cheese and burger fixings. What could be bad? The Tokyo Classics were also very good. They're a beef katsu instead of traditional pork. The two milkshakes were great! Overall, if you're seeking your next fusion place you need to try Katsu Burger. read more

I used to go to the Bellevue location often, and finally decided to try out this location when my brother decided he wanted a Katsu Burger for lunch. My brother, sister, and I all each ordered a burger and fries. I got the Tokyo Classic, my sister got the Ranch Kudasai, and my brother got the Ninja Deluxe. We all enjoyed our burgers.

Sometimes you just want a burger, fries, and shake to drown your sorrows. Today was definitely a deep fried burger kind of day. I arrived around 12:30 on a Friday afternoon expecting a crowd, but the place was pretty dead. I wasn't too worried based on Yelp reviews. The woman operating the register was also doing the cooking. I was impressed. Katsu burger was clean and seating was comfortable. This was my first burger experience in Federal Way and my first ever deep fried burger experience. I chose the Godzilla Attack burger with sea salt fries, miso honey mustard dipping sauce, and a chocolate milkshake. What really made the burger good was the tonakatsu sauce and the many, many jalapeños. BAM!!! The burger being deep fried was kind of whatever. I could only finish half of it. The fries were nice. The milkshake was far too thick and nothing particularly special. All and all, this was a decent experience. read more

Katsu Burger - Burgers Near Me - Federal Way, Washington

If you like katsu and you like burgers, you HAVE to try this place! I had no idea how good the fusion of katsu and burger could be until I came here two weeks ago. From the service to the food, Katsu burger really delivered from all the hype and reviews I had heard. We were greeted by a very nice gentleman, who took our order and patiently explained everything to us on what they had, their sides, and his recommendations. I had the teriyaki chicken katsu burger minus the pineapple and added pepper jack cheese, my husband had the Ohayou Gozaimasu katsu burger and we shared some Nori fries and Karokke. When I first got my burger, there was no cheese on it, but the server (who had taken our order) noticed right away and apologized and went back to the kitchen to get it fixed for me. This gentleman really gave us great customer service, which made our experience that much better! As for my burger - it was absolutely delicious! I loved every aspect of the taste and actually only finished half my burger, so I had lunch for the next day. The only thing I would say is that the burger bun is so large which makes it a little messy to eat, but TOTALLY WORTH THE MESS! My husband enjoyed his burger but found that his was extra messy (due to the egg) so that took away from his experience a little bit, but now he knows to get something else next time ;) The fries were good, pretty standard even with the Nori flakes and I probably won't get again, but my favorite was the Karokke! The mashed potatoes in them really makes the dish put hash browns to shame! I'm already looking forward to my next meal here! read more

Came for lunch on a Sunday. The restaurant was about half full so it seemed like they have steady business. I had their ninja deluxe burger and it was pretty good. I had low expectations to be honest but was pleasantly surprised. I had a side of fries with it and they could honestly have been better. Poor texture and the curry flavor didn't make it any better. Luckily we asked for it to come with spicy mayo which made it delicious. Ambience and decor wasn't anything fancy and reminded me of a sports bar. We were worried about our food taking a while because they only had two employees working both the cashier and the kitchen but everything came quickly to our surprise. read more
