    Tokyo classic
    Louise F.

    Fun take on a fusion burger while still having the hole in the wall burger joint vibe and pricing. I dot the most basic option, the tokyo classic, and really liked it. The patty has been tonkatsu-fied and the end result is somewhere at the midway point between actual tonkatsu and a normal patty. The sauce is good too. But the burgers do get pretty crazy if you want something more fun/ridiculous.

    Katsu Curry Burger with pork
    Fionna L.

    Reasonable prices and it hit the spot. I got the Katsu Curry burger with pork and while it tasted good (with no strong curry flavor), I'd only rate it 3/5 because the crispy pork was thin and dry. I would recommend getting beef instead. The "cheese" was also a thin sauce instead of real cheese. It still made for a satisfying meal. The interior is dark with punchy graphics, framed Studio Ghibli prints and other touches of Japanese culture. The restaurant was pretty empty on a Saturday and it seems like most people do takeout. You can either order at the kiosk or online (the soonest you get your food from an online order is 10 mins) and the service was friendly. I appreciated how they had plant-based options too: tofu and impossible plant protein! Tl;dr this is a good spot. Get your burgers with beef if you can!

    Katsu burger is one of my favorite places. If you're ever wanting an option for a place to eat that isn't just the same old thing, come here! They do burgers but instead of beef patties they put katsu in it! I love the flavoring as they use things such as tonkatsu sauce in the burgers and nori seasoning on the fries (if you want it lol). There's plenty of seating and there's a cool mural inside as well! Although you order primarily through kiosks, the staff are still helpful for questions or water cups or what have you. Highly recommend!

    Tokyo Classic Burger with an extra pork patty and curry fries

    Came here on a recommendation and it lived up to the hype. It was dead in the middle of the day but I bet it is vibing during mealtime or when the college school-year is in session. The burger is very different (in a good way) from anything I've had. It's quite fun to be able to mix meats on a burger. I'd love to try a bunch of the different fun pre-built burgers at some point. The very generous portion of curry fries are unique and go very well with the Japanese mayo.

    Ohayou gozaimasu
    Vinh M.

    I used to go to the Katsu Burger down in Georgetown very often and loved their food a lot, so I was very happy to get the same things when I went to this location. It's Cap Hill, so good luck finding parking anywhere regardless of the time of day, I went here on a Wednesday noon with some friends to an empty restaurant that seems like it could get very noisy; there's a bar (without any seats near it) and tables seating throughout the area. Music is also blasting inside. You can order food using any of two kiosks near the front, so nothing to say about service here. I got the ohayou gozaimasu burger and it's just as big as I remember it. It has a beef katsu patty, bacon, cheddar cheese, Japanese mayo, Tonkatsu sauce and a fried egg inside, and it was delicious! Bun doesn't come apart, and the burger is messy - in a good way. I also had some of my friends' noir fries which also hit the spot despite them being regular fries! These two constants that I always get at any Katsu Burger still remain the same after so long, so I was definitely happy about that. Great place to have a humongous burger and some seaweed-sprinkled fries!

    I tried this Katsu burger spot during my visit in Seattle, and it was quite a surprised. I did really enjoy the chicken katsu burger I ordered. It was also extremely filling and was a good bite. However, I did think was that it could use a bit more filling. I think more curry sauce in my burger would have been a nice touch. I did also feel that the bread is a bit dry and could use some improvement. Otherwise, I did enjoy my meals. The chicken tasted great and was quite nice. I did think there was quite a bit of lettuce on my burger. Staff was great, took about 10 mins for my burger to come out which was quite fast. The restaurant was empty when we visited but whoever was on aux was doing a good job setting the vibes. There is plenty of seating available. I do want to come back and try some of the other burger items since they look quite interesting. There were also plenty of milkshake available, and I tried a chai milkshake. I have not seen that flavor before and it was great, quite similar to a chai tea latte but in milkshake form. My stomach took a beating eating a full katsu burger with the shake, I could not imagine adding a side of fries to make that a meal.

    Miso Honey Tofu Burger
    Melanie G.

    I pre-ordered the tofu burger and curry fries with nori ranch online; the order was ready when I got there! While I appreciate the thick slab of tofu, it wasn't very flavorful. It's called a miso honey burger but neither of those flavors were coming through, it was pretty plain. The tofu was almost too much for the rest of the burger. The bread wasn't the softest. Both the curry fries and nori ranch had good flavor! Fries are on the crispier side rather than soft, fluffy and potatoey.

    UMAMI WAGYU - $12.95
    Tu-Anh N.

    WHEN: Tues @1pm Looks like more people do take out since you can order online. It was completely empty when we came so we ate indoors. This place is quite spacious but the tables were beyond sticky to the point where it no amount of disinfectant wipes could fix. So I tore open our bag our orders came in and made a placemat. Here's what was ordered: UMAMI WAGYU - $12.95 This was a seasonal special so I thought I try it. This burger is created with savory wagyu beef, swiss cheese, bacon, caramelized onions and creamy Japanese mayo & Tonkatsu sauce. Crispy shredded cabbage, pickles and tomatoes are also added to enhance the flavor. It was definitely a hefty one, I recommend sharing if you wanna try other things. It's pretty good BANZAI BITES - $5.95 Fun-snack size chicken strips and pork bites (you can have one or the other). Got the Nori Ranch which was a nice creamy and salty dipping sauce. These bites weren't very memorable since they tasted dry. Glad I still gave them a shot! FRIES - $3.75 Got the Miso Honey Mustard sipping sauce which was nice, and the fries are pretty decent for some standard fries. Really nothing much else about it. Overall the food was okay. I think this is the point where too much shades of brown food was ordered and my body needs a green smoothie or something, haha. Still, no regrets!

    Tokyo Classic (chicken)
    Timothy H.

    You must try Katsu Burger. It's a twist on burgers and tonkastu and they made it taste so good. I got the Tokyo classic with chicken as my protein (other options include pork, beef). The chicken was so crispy and the Mayo / tonkatsu sauce was incredible. I enjoyed every bite of it. We had to order through a kiosk. I don't enjoy using these are restaurants. The staff was helpful whenever we had questions though. The katsu burgers were made in a timely manner. I enjoyed the ambiance of the restaurant. I liked the themes and art that was created. It's a nice area to enjoy some good food. There were plenty of seating in the place.

    Cozy place for a special occasion. Small restaurant. Appears family run…read more Price point for the quality of fish and thickness of cut is reasonable. The popular sashimi plate had sockeye salmon, scallops, king salmon, yellowtail, snapper, and shima aji. 3-4 slices per fish so total about 20ish pieces for $ 75 dollars. Also included salmon roe. Ask which fish is in the plate since it seems to change. Service was good. They serve distilled water which is appropriate for eating raw dish so you actually taste the fish and not the tap water. The star of the night was the miso black cod. Soft buttery and flavorful. Just enough miso to bring out the sweetness of the fish. Some may find it not flavorful enough. It depends on if you are looking for fish flavor or seasoning flavor in my opinion. The only down side is that it's a fatty cut of fish so by the third piece it can be a bit heavy. Ended up cutting the fat with a bit of lemon toward the end and using the shredded pink diakon. For the price of $ 17 dollars, it is quite a good deal as other spots in the area would charge more or give less.

    Vibes: retro mom and pop Japanese; bring a friend or a small group…read more Tasting notes: - Kinpira: very lightly seasoned; very subtly sweet; overall crunchy and refreshing - Sakana Dinner: sunomono is very lightly pickled; sashimi is thick cut; tempura is excellently crisp; sides come before the fish; salt-broiled mackerel was perfectly broiled and just salty enough, pairing nicely with fluffy white rice - Hamachi Kama: very generous, meaty portion; served with lemon and slightly vinegary dashi dipping sauce Other thoughts: - Dishes come free flowing from the kitchen - Hamachi Kama did take about 25 minutes along with mackerel and was effectively an entree in itself Impression: so glad I got to stop in this historical gem on my first trip to Seattle!

The iced green tea was refreshing, the salad's dressing for the side salad was pleasant and the miso soup had tofu, seaweed and green onion so it was excellent!

When we were seated, there were only about three other occupied tables, all with couples. Two of those tables were already being served their food. We placed our order, but our food didn't arrive for about an hour despite the restaurant appearing to be fully staffed. To make matters worse, multiple tables that were seated after us received their food before we did. The long wait might have been easier to overlook if the food had been worth it, but it wasn't. I ordered the seven-piece sushi assortment with a baked crab roll, and more than four pieces of the fish were still partially frozen. The fish did not taste fresh, which was especially disappointing after such a long wait. An hour to assemble seven pieces of sushi seemed excessive. Seeing that more than half of the fish was still partially frozen made the hour-long wait make a lot more sense. Maybe they were waiting for it to defrost before serving it. My sister ordered a baked crab roll and two pieces of seared snow crab. The seared snow crab was completely forgotten until I had already finished my meal. We had to remind the staff before they rushed to prepare it. The baked crab roll itself was decent, but the combination of the extremely slow service, disorganized order handling, partially frozen fish, and forgetting an entire dish until we asked about it means we won't be returning.
