Called in for a takeout order today. The girl staff member who answered the phone and handed me the order was super warm and helpful! We ordered 2 king katsu with regular sauce! They even threw in a spicy sauce to try out. Orders were neatly packed and generously portioned. Katsu was super crispy and delicious. For the portion sizes, the prices are super fair. Definitely planning a future visit! read more

Love the service here. I get so happy when I see the cart get pushed out. Very efficient. Plenty of parking! Food is great for sharing in a group. What we tried so far: -Cabbage and mac salad - yes! - The King Katsu is HUGE! - yes! - Cheese Katsu - yes! -Half & Half Chicken (Yang-Nyeom and Butter ) - yes! - Lemonade Slush - can't go wrong - Sikhye Slush - is an interesting taste, first time trying. Just okay for me. read more

Okay, yeah. I get the hype and strong reviews for this place. The king katsu, that's pretty much the size of an adult human torso, is not just a marketing ploy to gain attention. It *is* ginormous and there's no reason this thing should fit in anyone's stomach. Kidding. It's called chew your food please. ;) Back to the katsu. It's seasoned well, moist and has the most amazing crunch I've ever experienced from a cutlet. The default sauce is nice. It's sweet and seems to combine flavors of typical katsu sauces with american bbq sauces. I also got the curry and that was good too. Not very spicy though. Both the pork and chicken katsus were equally well executed. The half and half Korean Fried Chicken order surprised me. They were boneless, moist and well sauced. The yang-myeon wasn't really spicy at all (super mild) but the flavor was spot on. More garlicky than I'm used to for this flavor but I like that. Katsus come with mac salad, rice, coleslaw, pickles, white radishes and miso soup. Yeah hella food. Geez. Also tried the cold soba. I love this dish in Japan. Their version was fine. I'm used to a broth that's more bold and a hint saltier. This one seemed more bland, but did have strong dashi notes which was nice. I'll definitely return. Solid Japanese/Korean comfort foods that were overall all great bites, executed really well. read more

Spacious restaurant in the Balentine Plaza. We ordered the King combo, cold soba, and fried shrimp to share. The king combo had pork, shrimp, burger patty and an egg. For the Korean style katsu, the pork is very very thin. Their wonton beef batter it was coated in is very crunchy, but be prepared to see a thin piece of pork. The burger patty was flavorful but small. And fried fish was crispy. It seems like they make the soba in house? When we originally placed the order, the server needed to go back to the kitchen to see if the soba machine was working? Nonetheless, the noodles were very chewy and perfect for a hot day. read more

All hail to the king of katsu! Be prepared to feast like a royalty! Squeezed into a corner of a moderately sized shopping center in the fringes of Newark, King Katsu Land is cooking up some monster sized fried pork cutlets with sides of curry, rice, coleslaw and other fried goodies like cheese katsu. Infamously known for its novelty size, the taste and value are certainly other qualities to celebrate. This recent newcomer took over a seldomly visited spot and has definitely drawn the attention of hungry patrons looking to not only satisfy their stomaches but also to allow their eyes to feast on the golden crispy crusted pork patty the size of a giant dinner plate. Based on our experience, they seem to be primed to stay with excellent service, delicious food, and amazing value. We got a take out order with a variety of items and they all hit the spot and satisfied a craving or two. Their menu is quite simple with their katsu being the main attraction with each offering regular and spicy variations as well as the option to add on curry to go with the protein. King katsu - this monstrosity is a wonder to behold. All of its crispy goodness packed in a box comparable to a personal sized pizza box, ready to be cut into and dipped into a hot bowl of their curry. This is by far, a must get here, unless you opt for the super king combo that includes this and a fish katsu and hamburger steak. It comes in pork or chicken (halal). Definitely shareable - I'd gander for about 4 people or 2 really hungry ones. Cheese katsu - gooey, crispy and stretchy. This is a fun one to eat but it sneaks up on you and will certainly stuff you up. Consider sharing so you can save some space for that king katsu, but who am I kidding, you still won't finish in one sitting. Eat it while it's still warm! Curry - creamy and full of umami. Don't sit out on this curry as it'll elevate your katsu experience and give you something else to dunk your rice in! Definitely worth the extra charge. Overall, King Katsu Land will certainly pique your interest with the sheer size of their main dish but will have you coming back because of the effort they put into preparing each dish to provide rich flavors and complex textures in each bite. For those looking for something you likely won't be able to cook or have the desire to make at home, this unique eat will keep you full for at least two meals! Look no further than the King for your katsu cravings! read more

We got the King Katsu and the Cheese Katsu, and wow -- when the King Katsu hit the table, we were shocked at how huge it was. We even said we could've just shared that one dish and been totally satisfied, but ordering only one plate felt a little embarrassing. The katsu was super tender, super crispy, and the sides (mac salad, cabbage salad, and rice) were such a great combo. The Cheese Katsu was tasty but definitely on the heavier side. After a few pieces, it gets pretty rich. I loved that they have frozen drinks! We tried the Sikhye slush (Korean rice punch), and it was delicious -- cold, sweet, and perfect with fried food on a warm day. Service was awesome too. Right after ordering, they brought out miso soup and a trio of pickles: yellow radish, kimchi radish, and pickled cucumber. My only note is that all the pickles were a bit too sweet; a little more acidity would've balanced the meal perfectly. And seriously, the King Katsu set is gigantic. When I packed up my leftovers, it looked like I had an entire second meal. Such a great deal. Highly recommend! I'm definitely coming back to try the frozen lemonade and the fried chicken. read more

I normally don't eat Chicken Katsu as I originally came here from TikTok recommendation? Arrived at 11am direct, ordered the Chicken Katsu plate. They provided a nice set of Korean Light dishes which were pleasant. Once the dish arrived, I was shocked at how huge the portion sizes were? Like goddamn, first in my lifetime to see Katsu of this size? Taste wise it's great, no issues whatsoever. The regular or spicy sauce is just right. I chose to only eat half and eat the rest tomorrow to avoid over eating. 100% I will make efforts to come here once a month, the price for a plate of this metric is absolutely amazing. read more

I went to King Katsu Land for the first time and returned less than a week later. The portions are huge, very shareable. Out of the fish, chicken and pork, the chicken is my fave. Don't get me wrong tho, they're all good. I've tried the curry, regular and spicy sauces. My favorite is the spicy. It was spicier than I expected and the heat builds. It also has a slightly sweet flavor to it. Love it. Cheese corn, rice cakes and fried chicken were all good. I'm definitely getting the cheese corn again next time I visit. The servers were nice and checked on us often both times I went. I'm a fan read more

After seeing all the good reviews, we decided to give this spot a try today. We had five parties in front of us so we had to wait, not a big deal right? The wait took over 30 minutes. You can see once inside that this restaurant is not particularly big. There were vents that were non-functioning which suggested that this spot may be an old Korean BBQ joint at one point. We were pretty hungry at this point and throughout the meal, despite us attempting to flag them down multiple times for service, it was pretty apparent that the staffs were not trained to accommodate a full restaurant. To the food, we ordered: King's Combo (Pork Katsu, Fish Katsu, Hamburger steak) - 3 out of 5 I asked for regular and spicy sauce. I got only the regular sauce and it's this real sweet sauce that I'm guessing a mix of a little bit of curry and a lot of American bbq sauce? This kinda makes the pork katsu tasted mediocre which I was quite disappointed. The fish katsu is basically fried fish paired with tartar sauce and the hamburger steak you get a sunny sided egg on top of your meat. The cabbage, macaroni and rice came on the side. The katsu sauce for the pork katsu kinda killed it for me. It was the main protein for this dish and it just didn't deliver it for me. Half & half chicken (Original & Yang-Nyeom) - 3 out of 5 The chicken came were made from chicken seemingly from the breast area. They were extremely dry and it was shocking to my wife that they were not wings or thighs. For me personally, because I'm not a fan of chicken breast meat in general, this didn't do it for me. If you like Korean styled fried chicken, you may want to give this one a skip. Extra Fried Rice - 4 out of 5 This was a side dish that we wanted just to give ourselves some more carbs. They tasted typical and were fine but nothing too special. Rice Punch Slush (Sikhye) - 3 out of 5 I was curious as to the taste so we ordered one. Let's just say that if you're not a big fan of rice drinks in general, give this one a pass. Personally if you ask me for what it taste like I would say it's similar to rice wine without the wine but added sugar to it. Service - 3 out of 5 We had a hard time trying to get a waiter/waitress to help us consistently for basic items like napkins and water. I had to personally go up one or two times. I think they definitely need to train their staffs more to accommodate busy traffic inside the restaurant. Overall I would say that I'm not a huge fan from my experience eating at King Katsu Land. Having had katsus from Katsu factory I would say that Katsu factory from Satomi does a better job with a variety of dressing/seasonings that they offer. I think King Katsu Land offers a lot of food people love on paper but the implementation of these dishes can definitely be worked on more along with their handling of customers from their staff. Would I come back? Nahhhh.... read more

King Katsu Land has recently opened in Newark whereas their first location is in Daly City. I'm glad that they made it to the other side of the Bay since locals here have to commute longer to get to the other location. I know this area for a while since a few businesses used to open there, but I hope that this restaurant turns out good here. They're known for serving large portions of katsu here and that didn't really surprised me as much once they bring out my meal here. All that including soup and other foods for at least $19.95? Count me in! Food is really good here and I like we have a sauce pitcher to pour it to the katsu. I usually dip it to the pitcher and sometimes pour it just to get a bit of experience. I really love how flaky the katsu is as well as the crisps I'm hearing. Because the portion size is too big, I ended up taking the rest to-go and obviously don't want to end up being full when I get home. I usually finish meals without taking to-go at the end, but not this time. I hope that this restaurant goes well and probably should try other katsu dishes here especially the cheesy one I kept seeing online. Honestly saw a good representation there. Don't know if they go on a metal tray, but I gotta find out when I come back. read more

Yo the portions are HUGE! You most definitely get your money's worth. Went on a Friday evening and although there was a lot of people, we were able to sit down right away. I think the lines were starting to form after we sat down. The staff were pretty busy but they made sure to get to us when they could and they apologized for the wait. Ambiance was simple and neat. Spacious inside. We ordered: -King Katsu with spicy sauce (order spicy if you like spicy!) -Fish Katsu (my order, I give it a 5/5 that tartar sauce is delicious) -Udon -Tteokboki Katsu (spicy!) doesn't come with rice and Mac salad FYI Overall the Katsu had the right amount of crunch and breading. Not too thick and seasoned well. It didn't feel too oily or heavy at all. The Mac salad, cabbage salad, and rice was good. The banchan was basic. I'm hoping this place remains busy and wishing good prosperity! This location is notorious for changing businesses. Good luck King Katsu Land! I'll be back again. read more

My cousin took me out for a birthday lunch at the newly opened King Katsu Land. We arrived before the lunch rush but it was already semi busy for a Monday afternoon. We were seated quickly by our helpful server. The menu was extensive but settled with the pork and chicken katsus with original and curry gravies on the side. The portions were enormous and we ended up splitting and sharing our orders. Everything we ordered didn't disappoint. We also had leftovers to take home. I'll definitely back to try their other menu items! read more

King Katsu Land - Pork & Chicken katsus with original and curry gravies. - Asian Fusion Near Me - Newark, California

Uhhhhhh I'm obsessed. Katsu heaven. Chicken and pork are both juicy. Hawaiian, Japanese, Korean, American... and I'm all for this fusion, normally I'm not, but I am. I'll be a forever patron. The end. No boosters. Only highchairs. Your toddlers butt might fall through the chair back and chair seat. SO, they may need to sit in the highchair or get a booth or they may need to Asian squat in the chair. My toddler fit in the highchair, make sure you don't clip their fingers between the highchair edge and the edge of the table as you push them in and create a screaming toddler..... from one parent to another.... read more

After seeing their name pop up on the building I had been waiting for their grand opening announcement! I was able to go this weekend and to be honest, a little glad I beat the crowds. (if you're familiar with their Dalt City location, there's almost always a wait there!) My husband and I shared the pork katsu with whipped sweet potatoes (YES, these plates are big enough to share!) Along with the korean fried chicken-I got the half and half so I could try to 2 different flavors. The katsu was good, although I feel like the sweet potato stood out more when we've had it in Daly City. I do think their sauce overpowered everything so next time I would ask for sauce on the side. The Korean fried chicken was very crispy, also a huge shareable portion! I feel neither flavor left me craving more, but they were both good as a side - I couldn't eat more than a few of either one. The yangyeom does have a nice kick to it while the garlic butter was very garlicky and very buttery-the garlic was very overpowering. We ran into a friend so we traded off each other's plates just to be able to try the other options and we agreed the plain chicken was a better option, they had spicy sauce on the side which was a perfect dipping sauce for the chicken. Definitely would do that next time. read more

I saw someone's photo for this business calling this the "cursed spot" and I have not been in the East Bay area long enough to know why it's considered curse, but I don't think King Katsu Land has to worry. My parents are near their Daly City location and so they have raved NONSTOP about this place, but I have yet to make an effort to go so I was pleasantly surprised when they decided to expand their operations to Newark. My husband and I came by on a Friday evening around 6pm and it was already somewhat packed, but we were still able to get seated promptly. The menu is straightforward - we already had an idea on what we would like to order. The katsu here is no joke. It's insanely big for the price you're paying and well worth the cost. Between the katsu, the rice, the macaroni salad, and the regular salad, there's enough food to keep you fed for the night and have some for the next day. Service was friendly and welcoming. My only complaint is that it took a while for the food to come and they're in soft opening phase right now so you'll have to be patient. read more

Ordered the King's combo and the sweet potato cutlet. The King's combo came with a chicken cutlet, fish cutlet, and hamburger steak. The portion was huge, definitely could not finish the whole thing. The chicken was moist inside and crispy outside, and the fish was tender and crispy as well. The panko was light, not too oily at all, had a great crunch to it. The hamburger steak was solid, tasted as you would expect it to taste. The sweet potato cutlet was a pork cutlet with sweet potato mousse on top, making it sweet and savory. The katsu sauce was sweet and tangy, and complimented the katsu well. One of my favorite katsu I've had in the Bay Area so far! read more

For all you Katsu lovers, King Katsu opens the 2nd store in Fremont! Ginormous 1lb pork chop that's super crunchy, cabbage salad, macaroni and rice! 3 small sides, miso soup and sauce of your choice, original/spicy/curry. I was amazed how crunchy it was when i cut and bite into it!! The leftover can feed me for two more meals.. Probably the best meal one can find in Fremont for under $25 out the door! BTW, the service was friendly and accept Apple pay! I will become a regular here for sho! read more

Wow. Perfect ten, no notes. It was kinda weird trying a Korean Katsu place. It was a mix of Korean but mostly a Japanese menu. To start, the miso soup and side dishes were wonderful. Good miso flavor, not too much but a nice starter. The radish and cucumber side dishes were really tasty. We knew there would be a lot of food so we didn't ask for refills, but I think you can. The chicken katsu was huge and fed both my kid and wife. I tried a bite and it was crispy and flavorful. I, however, had the hamburger steak! I used to stop in Tokyo for these anytime I saw it available. This was certainly on par with what I would expect over there. Three flavorful patties, seemed like a mix of beef and pork? Eggs on top were a perfect soft boil and yolk ran nicely to add some earthy flavor. There were three smaller patties rather than the standard one large patty, but each patty was exactly the same. The onions and gravy dipping sauce though...mmmmmm. There wasn't enough of it and I dipped each bite of meat into it. It was really nice. Big portions here and one of the cheaper Fremont dinners we've had in a while. We'll be back. Oh, there's a challenge you can do there and I think you get your meal free!

If you are craving a giant, perfectly executed katsu, look no further. This place is an absolute gem! I ordered the king pork katsu, and it was hands-down not only the biggest katsu I've ever had but also one of the best. The panko breading was incredibly light, airy, and shattered with a perfect crunch with every bite, while the meat inside remained unbelievably tender and juicy. It wasn't greasy at all. What stood out was the side of curry and katsu sauce. It took the dish to the next level. I also tried the king katsu combo with chicken katsu, fish katsu, and hamburger with a fried egg on top. Everything was excellent. The service was also excellent. The staff was welcoming and incredibly helpful; guiding me through the menu. The food came out fast and hot, and the servers checked in just the right amount without being intrusive. This place has great food, cool vibes, and stellar service. What else can you ask for? Come hungry and leave completely satisfied. I highly, highly recommend this spot. read more

First off, the service was excellent. One thing I really appreciated was that they bring out an entire pitcher of water for the table. It's a small detail, but still deserves some brownie points The portions here are absolutely massive. I ordered the pork cutlet, and it was easily the biggest pork cutlet I've ever been served, nearly a foot in diameter. It completely covered the plate and I'd say enough to feed 2 people. The meal also came with miso soup and a few small side dishes, both of which were good additions. Another pleasant surprise was that my order included two different curries, a regular curry and an atomic spicy curry. I paid the $2 upcharge for the curry and honestly expected just one, so getting both was unexpected. (Note the "Spicy Curry was HOT like it had a bunch of different peppers in it and I'd compare it to taking a bite out of a Habanero in each time.) Another nice touch was while packing up my leftovers, the staff noticed that my regular curry was running low and happily refilled it free of charge and I didn't even asked. Overall, this is the kind of place where you feel like you're getting your money's worth. The portions are huge, the food is satisfying, and the service goes above and beyond. If you're ordering the pork cutlet, come hungry because there's a very good chance you'll be taking home enough food for another meal. read more

Where do I begin?! We really enjoyed our meal here. From the friendly service to the huge portion sizes. This was our first time trying King Katsu Land and it definitely won't be our last. We've been hoping to find a delicious go to katsu spot whenever the carving hits, not too far from home, and we found it! Food we tried: -Kings Combo (chicken katsu, fish katsu and hamburger steak) -Snowflake Katsu (pork katsu with cheese) -Half and Half Chicken (butter garlic and yang-nyeom) -Tteok-bo-ki -Curry Sauce on the side Based on the pictures we saw on Yelp we didn't realize how big the portion size was. If you're going to order multiple side dishes I recommend sharing a katsu plate! My favs of the meal were the chicken katsu that I dipped in the tteok-bo-ki sauce and my husband also liked the chicken katsu with the curry sauce. The fish katsu was a very close runner up. Next time I want to try the pork katsu without the cheese on it. Don't get me wrong, it was delicious, but I was missing some katsu crispy texture as the meal went on. The butter garlic chicken was our favorite of the two chicken flavors. The tteok-bo-ki was just the right amount of spicy to enjoy the meal. My husband says the rice cake was more on the softer side than he would like, but I really enjoyed it! This place is new to the area, but I'm sure it'll get really busy really fast! read more

After discovering this place opening up in Fremont, my mom and I decided to come here for dinner on a Sunday night. We were immediately greeted by the workers and were lucky that it wasn't too busy at the time because we were seated right away. We noticed how clean it was inside and they were playing Kpop with a Korean show on the TV as well. A server dropped off utensils, napkins, waters, etc. and gave us some time to look at the menu and we had decided on trying the King Katsu with the regular sauce and the zzolmyun. We were completely taken aback by the portion size because of huge it was! With the katsu they give you a big scoop of rice, plenty of salad, and a lot of macaroni salad on the plate with the sauce on the side. My mom and I really enjoyed it, and she says it reminded her of her childhood in Korea eating Korean katsu! The zzolmyun was a lot more than we had expected as well, with a generous portion of vegetables to mix with and they even gave extra sauce on the side. We thought it wasn't spicy at all but it started to build throughout each bite so be a little cautious if you're not good with spice. Something I want to note is the service is amazing. Everyone was super nice and they were super helpful with everything! When our katsu came out first, one of the servers came up to us a few minutes later explaining that the zzolmyun would take a bit longer and apologized. We didn't mind at all since we were so focused on the katsu itself but they actually comped the zzolmyun for us which wasn't necessary at all. We felt bad and tried to pay for it but they insisted, and later I think it was one of the cooks that brought the dish out himself! They completely won us over after the whole dinner and definitely earned some loyal customers. We'll be back with the rest of our family next time! Thank you againn read more

We've been to King Katsu land in Daly City and love it, so we were very excited to hear they were opening a location closer to home in Fremont. Came in late on a Saturday night and were seated quickly. Service was great, our server was Layla and she was very friendly, offered service with a smile and checked on us often. Our girls even commented on how kind she was. Food did not disappoint. And they give HUGE portions! Our 3 girls share a Chicken Katsu plate and we always have a whole box of leftovers to take home (even though they each eat 2-3 servings!). We also know the chicken is good bc our littlest usually picks off and eats the crunchy skin of the chicken and leaves the meat. Here, she eats it all! Definitely a win for us! Husband likes the half and half chicken and if you like spicy food, I recommend the Tteokboki Chicken. (Note--does not come with rice or salad, so order that on the side if you need it!) We'll definitely be back! We will definitely be coming back! read more

Visited the newly opened King Katsu Land location recently! I used to drive often to the King Katsu Land in Daly city because it has always been one of my favorite katsu spots, so I was really excited to hear they opened a second location closer to home in Newark. And honestly, it's still the best katsu in the Bay Area. The pork cutlet was perfectly crispy on the outside while staying juicy and tender inside. The quality, thickness of the meat, and overall flavor were just as amazing as the Daly City location. Everything from the sauce to the rice and sides was on point. The new Newark location is also clean, modern, and has a great atmosphere, making it a perfect spot for both casual meals and family dinners. Super happy that I no longer have to drive all the way to Daly city for this level of katsu. Highly recommend to anyone who loves Korean style katsu -- definitely still my pick for the best katsu restaurant in the Bay Area! read more

King Katsu Land - The king katsu challenge. - Asian Fusion Near Me - Newark, California

Came here during their soft opening/first week open for lunch. This used to be a Korean restaurant before so the interior looks similar, but very clean and tidy! Servers were all super friendly and very attentive. We ordered the Cheese Katsu (added the curry sauce) and the Tteokbokki Katsu. Our server brought out their signature katsu sauce for us to try as well even though we had substituted the curry. We actually ended up preferring their katsu sauce- a more fruity but very flavorful version of Japanese katsu sauce! The tteokbokki katsu was good but the winner was definitely the Cheese Katsu! We will definitely be back! It was a refreshingly great experience with the wonderful staff and the food was excellent! Our new favorite katsu spot read more

My wife and I were waiting for this place to open, heard good things about Daly City location and wanting different Asian food in Newark. This place does not disappoint - clean tables (nice refresh from drab of former restaurants), great service bringing menus, water and pickled items out quickly, and helping us choose dishes for adults and kids. Kings combo was hit with adults, kids Katsu was nice for kids in already cut into smaller pieces. Large portions, amazing katsu, simple sides. And they have Korean ice cream bars of various flavors - kinda like hungry cow close y but better. Very well priced, we visited during soft opening before grand opening May 24. Next time we'll change up for udon or cold noodles for kids and add some soju or Korean beer. This should become a great place to watch games and grub or just decent family meal place that is affordable.
