very nice service the lady at the front reminded me of my grandma and the food is delicious!

One word: Huge. I was craving chicken, and this spot satisfied my cravings. The portion was very generous! I honestly felt like it could feed two people. I also appreciate how the katsu is on the thinner side. The food came in a well designed togo box, which added a nice touch. The space itself is small and geared more toward takeout, but it feels efficient and easy to navigate. read more

EXPENSIVE for what it is. POOR service. They charge $20-25 for a plate but so stingy with utensils. Be aware, if you're sharing food, owner will get mad at you and slam the utensils if you ask for extra. UTENSILS! For context, we were a party of three. Bought 2 plates. $60 later, she gave us 3 forks and a spoon. I asked for 2 more spoons. When we were wrapping up, we had left over so I asked for extra fork and spoons since we were staying at a hotel. That's when I got the ATTITUDE. In her words, "more fork and spoon? We already gave you a lot!" then slammed 2 more sets of utensils at me. Not coming back. It's just katsu. read more

My girlfriend and I stopped by here around noon on Saturday to enjoy some fresh katsu before our stop to Downtown Disney close by. The service was nice and quick. The shop is a bit small but there's outdoor seating where you can eat your food. We both got the Chicken Katsu which comes with rice, pickles jalapenos, coleslaw, 1 piece of shrimp tempura, and 2 pieces of gyoza. Everything was decent overall. It'll give me enough energy for the Disney walk-a-thon to come. read more

Mama Katsu - Chicken Katsu - comes with rice/pickled jalapenos/coleslaw/ 1 pc shrimp tempura/2 pcs gyoza - Korean Near Me - Anaheim, California

Every time we're at Disney this is our stop especially since it's right across the street from the park. Probably one of the better places to get a musubi and some udon on the go. It's not the fancy stuff that you pay a lot for but it's good and it's filling. The service is great. It's not a dine in type place but there is seating outside. Definitely recommend if you need something quick and delicious. read more

Came here around 9pm after a Disney day and it was the best decision ever. I haven't had a meal in a long time where I enjoyed every single item we ordered! There's 3 self service kiosks you can order at with pictures of the larger entrees so it's easier to choose what you want. There's no seating inside but there are a few tables outside covered with umbrellas. We ordered: Pork with cheese katsu- this was sooo worth it. There's 2 layers of cheesy, crispy pork katsu goodness, a big scoop of rice, coleslaw, a spicy radish sauce, and fried gyoza and shrimp on the side. Everything was seasoned well and stood out on its own. The radish sauce wasn't overly spicy and cut the richness of the cheese so well. Rose tteokbokki- the sauce was a little runny but the flavors were still on par-- creamy, cheesy, and a lil spicy. Rice cakes were bouncy and chewy, and sausages were umami flavor bombs. Shrimp musubi- these surprised me by how good they were! The shrimp was perfectly seasoned with a great crunch. Yummm Spam musubi- spam... you can't go wrong with spam. This was good, as expected! But if you're looking for a musubi with more pizazz, try the shrimp musubi Already thinking about the next time I can come here. Highly recommend! read more

Mama Katsu is a hidden gem! I'm not sure how long they've been open, but wow--this place completely exceeded my expectations. Everything we ordered was delicious. The California roll was fresh and flavorful, my kimbap was vibrant and really well seasoned, and the shrimp tempura was amazing--super fresh, fluffy, and not greasy at all. We also ordered the spam musubi, which had great flavor and is always one of our favorites. The service was great, the place was clean, and it's also really convenient for takeout. We placed our order online through their website and it was ready quickly. When we arrived, the parking attendant helped direct us to double park on the red for a quick pickup, which made it SO convenient. If I could rate this place a 10, I would! Definitely come give it a try--you won't be disappointed. We'll absolutely be back. read more

I work at the happiest place on earth so I finally got to give this a try to bring lunch to work. I ordered the chicken katsu and it was so delicious and was still crunchy an hour later after clocking in for work. There was a lot of food to my surprise for $22. It is nice they give you a gyoza and shrimp tempura with your chicken katsu. The coleslaw I didn't care for but the pickles and rice I enjoyed a lot. I will go back again to try the other things on the menu. There is a kiosk to order so I didn't talk to anymore except when I got my food. Lady was nice who served me. I didn't have to wait long, only 15 min or so. There's plenty of seating outside no sitting inside since it's a small area other than a few chairs as a waiting area. read more

We just finished a long day at Disneyland and were craving Japanese food. We found this spot in a plaza with a bunch of interesting combos and stopped in around 9-10pm. The place was empty, but they have three easy-to-use tablets for ordering, which made it super seamless. Our food was ready in under 10 minutes! The portion sizes are massive--the katsu was great, and it came with unexpected sides like tempura and gyoza that were actually delicious. It was the perfect, quick, and filling meal to end a Disney day. read more

This place is absolutely fantastic! We found it on Yelp after leaving Disneyland and wanted something to take with us back to the hotel. The stellar reviews are all very accurate and this place is amazing! The portions are huge compared to what you pay for your food and everything is so fresh and delicious. I also love their different dessert options. They are perfect for walking to your hotel after Disneyland if you need a snack. My husband and I both got the Katsu chicken meal +10 dumplings and it was more than enough food for the two of us. I highly recommend this place if you are staying in a hotel near Disneyland. read more

"Wow this is so good" was what I told my husband after my first bite into the Katsu chicken. So crispy and freshly made, was so good! I really enjoyed the spicy Jalapeno dipping sauce (not sure the name) but was so tasty it went perfectly with the meal. Great service and near Disney so it was our post Disney meal. Yum yum yum! Go check it out for yourself. read more

Small spot just outside the disney gates. There's tables outside but this is mostly for carry out. Unsure if they do delivery (maybe doordash or ubereats?) We went with the chicken katsu meal and added extra rice. Once we got back to hotel, we were pleasantly surprised at how big the portion of food was. Good enough to feed 2 adults and a toddler. It also came with 2 gyoza and 1 shrimp tempura. Everything tasted great. Would definitely come back if we were staying close by. read more

Mama Katsu - Chicken Katsu - Korean Near Me - Anaheim, California

I was looking around for food outside of Disneyland and happened to see this spot. I enjoy a good katsu, and this place hit the spot with its cost and taste. It was a walkable distance after leaving the park, which was also a plus. The place itself is pretty small - more of a takeout place than a sit-down restaurant. They only have a few chairs available inside to sit down while you wait for your order. There are seats and tables available outside. We ordered the Pork Katsu and were able to share the box between two people. It included a lot! There was the katsu, a piece of gyoza, a piece of shrimp tempura, rice, pickles, and coleslaw. It was pretty worth it, especially when comparing it to the prices and portions of Disneyland. read more

My flight landed late and I was famished. I searched Yelp for a less fast-food-oriented restaurant and Mama Katsu caught my eye due to its positive reviews. It's nestled in the heart of a small shopping center, a cozy carry-out restaurant with no dining space. The interior is charming and nicely decorated. When I walked in, a lady came out from the back and greeted me with very friendly energy. I ordered both the chicken and fish Katsu from the ordering kiosk by the counter. The food came out pretty fast and the packaging was very impressive, with each meal in a nice paper box. This and the service was the highlight of my experience from this establishment. I had the fish Katsu and found it to be ... okay. I like that the meals came with rice, two dumplings, and two small sides: coleslaw and pickled radish. However, the fried fish was quite oily and too heavily battered for my liking and left me feeling as though I had consumed more batter than actual fish. As a result, I didn't revisit during the rest of my stay and probably won't visit again when I'm in town next. If it's late and you're in the area, AND absolutely in the mood for Katsu, I would say give this place a try. Other than that, there are healthier options than here. Note: There's a charge for paying with a credit card. read more

We had a party of 9 people and decided on katsu for a dinner on Saturday. This place is conveniently located close to disneyland and anaheim garden walk. There are 3 kiosks to order from. Seems like a mom and pop katsu and korean restaurant. The owner came out to talk to us after we got our food, she was so sweet and asked us where we were visiting from. The food came out so fast too, only took about 10 minutes. The portions were humongous, I wish I shared with someone but since it came in a takeout box, it was easy to pack up. We ate outside, plenty of outdoor seating. I got the chicken katsu and original kimbap. My friends got either chicken or pork tonkatsu and they were both delicious. Our katsu also came with some cole slaw, gyoza, shrimp tempura, katsu sauce, and pickled jalapeño sauce. Large portions for a great price. Thanks Mama Katsu! read more

Mama Katsu - Chicken Katsu - Korean Near Me - Anaheim, California

Craving some asian food similar to what you get in Hawaii? This is the place, tonkatsu, Spam Musubi, California rolls, teri chicken teokbokki, gimbap, ice cream, ramen, udon plus more. Cashless and contactless ordering and payment. Everything made when you order. Mobile ordering available so you can order on your way to Disneyland or on your way back to your hotel. Outside seating shares by the stores in this little complex. Nice. depending on the weather. Sadly they lost a couple of customers because no one was at the counter to explain the ordering process or ask any questions when the counter person was in the back getting my ordet. Serving size enough for my husband and I to share for a quick lunch. read more

Not much to say really. Small place with a few good options. Tried the spam and the shrimp musubi and the gyoza. It's a bit pricey, but then again this could be normal pricing for California, it's just I can't really justify the price for what I'm getting knowing I've eaten the same thing only better and cheaper at quite a few places. Some outdoor seating which is nice. I would eat there again but wouldn't seek it out. read more

Pro: close to hotel, potion size. Con: price, limited seating. After a day of Disneyland outing it was close to dinner time and decide to give this place a try since it was only less than a 10 minute walk from our hotel. I ordered the pork katsu and when I open the box I was surprise at the portion size. My meal box came with dumplings, shrimp tempura, and pork katsu with sauces. The dumpling and the tempura were ok while the katsu itself was a bit bland. I dip the katsu in the sauce and that did help it a bit. All in all, it was an ok meal to get you full but nothing special that would scream come back soon. read more

Is there even fish in this or is it all fryer scraping? Also...their ramen is top ramen noodles with whatever broth they think makes it ok to sell for more than 2 dollars (a 100% increase from RETAIL even might i add..not to mention if they got it wholesale). Going to bed hungry after 10 hours at the park. I'm so incredibly disappointed. Do BETTER Mama Katsu. read more

Very good katsu. Probably one of the better katsu places I've been to. (Not the best one tho but really good still). Good price for a lot of food! You get the katsu, some tempura, rice, gyoza, and cole slaw with your meal! I got the pork cheese katsu at like 11 pm and they close at 12am. I also tried their chicken katsu and it tasted very light (not heavy on the oils and stuff). Super fresh and good! Not a big fan of their katsu sauce though. I think L&L has the best katsu SAUCE. Owner was very kind and helpful! I also liked their kimbap. read more

After a long day at Disneyland, we were still famished from the small, expensive bites at the park. Lo and behold, Mama Katsu waiting outside the east gates of Disneyland. The menu had a lot of options including pork Katsu, chicken katsu, sushi, musubi. It may seem pricey but you're paying for quality and quantity. The pork katsu is large as other yelpers have mentioned and is tender and juicy. It's well worth the price! Would definitely recommend read more

What a wonderful gem located near Disneyland. Happened upon this spot after a long day of mediocre food at the theme park. Everything I got there was delicious and very reasonably priced (Not Disney prices). Pork Katsu comes with rice, a dumpling, a shrimp tempura, and some banchan. The flavor of everything was on point, even the panko crumbs on the katsu tasted light and fresh. All that and it was only $18. As a Korean, I had to try to Gimbab and it did not disappoint. One of the better ones Ive tried in SoCal. I talked to the Korean Ajuma who owns the store before leaving and she said she makes most things in house, even the panko. You can really taste it in the quality of her dishes. Excited to come back to try other dishes like the Udon and Tteok-bokki. read more

A very nice place for Korean food across Disneyland. It's just a little walk from the entrance. I think it's worth it for the quality of food since I don't think you can find good Korean food inside Disneyland. But you might need to spend 30 mins walking. I'm not sure if they have parking though. There is a parking lot of the hotel at the back, and they might let you park if it's a to-go order. read more

Food was so good and hearty after a full day at Disney California Adventure. Chicken Katsu can feed 2 people! Small restaurant, outside seating. Nice lady brought our food to our table outside. Food is all made to order. The only thing is parking. Very limited and on a busy street. Overall, will come back again. read more

Came here to order takeout since it's not far from convention center and it wasn't too busy around 5:30p. Since they're short staffed, I ordered and paid on their order station as you walk in. There are limited tables and seating inside. The food comes out in order and it's only the owner and a helper in the kitchen in the back. Apparently you can also order ahead and not have to wait so long. I'll try that next time :) FOOD WISE: - The rolls were freshly made and were decent along with spam musubi. However, if you don't finish and want to keep the food for next meal the rice is very hard to eat. - The (Not too rosy) Rose Ttkeokbokki was heavy on the bacon taste and more soupy than anything I've had before, but the rice cakes were good. - Chicken Katsu plate was also what you'd expect. Prices were decent for the area and not overpriced. Of course you can get more for your buck if you went for other fast food options but this was not bad. PARKING - you can turn into the hotel and tell the valet staff that you're there for Mama Katsu, and they allow you to park on site until you're all done since it's the hotel's private lot. read more

First of all, I 100% highly recommend getting the Katsu - big portion and crunchy, perfect amount of rice too. Take the Spam Musubi to go and bring it inside Disneyland! Three conveniently located self serve order kiosks inside with Apple Pay capability. Mama Katsu, the Korean lady, speaks: English, Korean, and Spanish - amazing! She's so sweet and just gives you that home feeling. read more

The parking attendees had us park in a "red zone" beside the row of restaurants.

A nice little spot in the business area a block away from Disneyland. Since we were staying in the area we decided to grab dinner here. They offer decent amount of options that you just order on your own at the self serve kiosk. They also have ice creams, mochi, and drinks available. We just ordered their katsu chicken dishes and they give you nice size portions of the food. We had plenty to eat as leftovers, or one order is enough to feed 2 people. Even though it was self serve, the lady still came out to each time we were inside to make sure we had everything we needed and was very friendly and eager to help if we needed anything. Very happy with our experience. read more

Mama Katsu is a quick service fast casual restaurant located in the shops in front of the Grand Legacy Hotel. The valet was super nice and allowed me to park there while I picked up my food. It's a walking distance to Disneyland. When you walk in you can order of the kisok and then the staff will call your name once the order it completed. There are a couple tables inside as well as outside if you like to dine in. I ordered the Pork Tonkatsu and a California Roll. The Tokatsu were cooked perfectly. I had the right about of panko to pork. The California Roll was made more of with sticky rice rather than Japanese rice, but it was still good. I would highly recommend you come by and try it out :) Definitely worth it after a long day of eating park food. sorry the food was soo good I forgot to take a photo.. Oops!

We're staying at the Best Western Plus (for Disneyland) near Mama Katsu! Saw the sign for tteokbokki so had to try it! First off it's a small little shop but there's plenty of seating outside. You have to order on the kiosk on your own. Service is fairly quick given that there were a lot of to go orders. I got the original tteokbokki in mild (tasted more like medium spicy) so proceed with caution if you can't handle a lot of heat. My husband got the chicken katsu box... good size portions and he said it's delicious and would order it again! The original kimbap is a good size portion too! It's a mouthful for sure. *update: (something to note): I don't eat beef/pork and asked to substitute the sausages for another egg instead in the tteokbokki but they said they don't do "modifications" on their orders. A bit disappointed in that they couldn't accommodate, especially since this is our 3rd night ordering from them. We'll be ordering more before we head home! read more

Great little spot next to Disneyland! We tried calling but because they get busy she said they typically prefer walk ins. It's on the Main Street next to a hotel and there isn't designated parking so I parked at a red curb like everyone else to place my order. They have a digital kisok to conveniently order and 1 small table inside to eat at. We ordered the kimbap, rose Tteokbokki and dumpling soup to go. Service was very friendly and quick. All dishes were so tasty, hot and fresh. I'd definitely come back if I was in the area! read more

Do not walk but run here. This little mom and pop place is amazing. They have a limited menu, however, it will rival many of the more expensive places. The Rose Tteokbokki was sooo good, we got the mild spicy and it still had a wonderful kick to it. We also ordered the 10 pc Pork & Veggie Gyoza which was excellent and the Spicy Ramen again excellent. These are the rare gems that are what makes eating out so fun. read more
