I love their honey fries! they're so crispy and slightly sweet and come with the perfect dipping sauce. I think it's a unique dish which is definitely worth trying out! We got carbonara and curry sauces to go with our Katsu. The curry sauce has a really robust flavour profile and is full of all these incredible warm spices, I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend getting this sauce. The carbonara sauce was nice as well and really creamy, I just wish it was a TAD bit spicier. I'm not sure how but Katsuya always has the flakiest crispiest Katsu and it is so appreciated. Portion sizes are very generous so you can easily split with friends, or indulge yourself depending on hunger levels. Overall a really positive experience, I look forward to coming back many more times!

One thing I didn't realize before coming here was that Katsuya sells Japanese FUSION tonkatsu. I…read moreassumed it was a just a Japanese Tonkatsu place until we ate here and saw the sign on the outside. My expectations may have been thrown off a little since I didn't realize what Katsuya trying to do. That said, the food was good, but nothing I'd shout on top of the hills for. The food was still decent, so had to still give it four stars. As much as I am not a fan of fusion restaurants, my favorite was the carbonara katsu. It was like dipping your katsu into an Italian seafood alfredo sauce, with a decent amount of seafood and bacon in it. The pair of this fusion was delightful and I enjoyed eating this one the most. The katsu itself had a nice light, crispy, airy batter, and the pork (you can choose your type of meat) was tender. It was light, yet deep fried, so super oily and felt like a heavy meal. My second favorite was the curry katsu. A good curry sauce with your katsu, typical to what I've gotten at other Japanese restaurants, and exactly what I would expect. It had a slight spice to it. The original katsu I wasn't too much of a fan of. The sauce was a little too buttery for me. Buttery and sweet. I'd come back for the carbonara katsu again for a dip into this italian/japanese fusion.

With the exception of some wall art the interior is unremarkable. Washrooms are downstairs. Menu has good selection of ramen and donburi's. Separate menu for snacks.

The…read moreservice was extremely quick: once we ordered, it was but a couple of minutes before our bowls arrived. The Tonkotsu Miso ramen was deliciously rich, creamy. The chashu was excellent and pretty thick. The Karashi ramen was decent. The noodles were tender and all the toppings were great. Personally, I found that the spice overwhelmed the other flavours of the broth. That's coming from a guy who loves his spice, and whose favourite ramen dishes are beyond spicy. 100% recommend to anyone looking for authentic Japanese cuisine in Downtown London. I will surely come back soon for that Tonkotsu Miso
