    Kimchi Butter Katsu Chicken
    Valerie C.

    Yas, Shootz in SJC. Located in the food hall of River street market, Shootz brings a different flavor to this town. Parking is free for the first 45 min in the parking lot. If you park on the street then you'll have to pay the meter. They usually don't have a staff at the front, so you have to push a button by the cash register to alert the staff in the back. I got the combo #1 with their signature spam brûlée musubi, kimchi butter chicken katsu and a drink. Everything tasted good, and the portion was fair. I usually love Hawaiian style macaroni salad, but I didn't love the Mac salad at Shootz. It almost tasted like it was going bad? Regardless, it was still a good experience and I would go back.

    I had tried their chicken katsu plate a couple of days ago, and I was really excited to see their incorporation with kimchi butter. The chicken had so much heightened flavor and crispiness. I wasn't a huge fan of the Mac salad. It seemed like it was a bit bland. Service is limited. I was the only person waiting for my order, and I don't think it took more than 10 minutes to receive my food. This was my first time visiting the River Street area, and I thought it was so cool to walk around and check out the stores and restaurants. There were a lot of people just spending time with friends and family. It has great vibes and energy to hang out around.

    Decided to grab Shootz for dinner since I saw they would be opening in The Canopy in Irvine soon! I'm really glad we tried it because everything tasted great! It was a really cute vibe inside the Rodeo! You have to press the button and order at the register if you want to order a bundle. We decided to get the chicken katsu kimchi butter bundle that comes with 2 spam musubi's and a soda! The bundle comes with 2 katsu cutlets vs. just 1 from the plate. It felt pretty worth it for the price (~$22). The kimchi butter tastes great and makes the katsu feel more nuanced! We got it spicy and it wasn't overwhelming but a nice tingle. The mac also had dehydrated kimchi powder on it! The spam musubi had a sweet sauce on top which made it feel more interesting!

    I can't recommend this spot enough! Everytime I go it's always better than the last. We signed up for the app for the ube desert promo and the store was about to close, but the manager was kind enough to get us two orders of the deep fried ube! Ten outta ten I will always come back to their locations for the kimchi butter katsu sandwich

    I've been to River Street a few times, but hadn't tried any of the spots in the food hall until tonight. It looks like a barn and the inside is light and bright with multiple food stalls. Since I'm from Hawaii I wanted to give Shootz a try. I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed the food. I got the katsu chicken sandwich and the musubi. The sandwich was a 10 out of 10. The musubi a 7. The service was quick and very friendly, especially since it was almost closing and they were still happy to help.

    First time through this River Street Marketplace "food hall" area near the train station. We decided to try the Shootz Hawaiian themed eatery. Ordered the "Kimchi Butter Kastu Chicken" using the counter kiosk. Within minutes the order was ready. There are very few tables in the hall but many, many tables and larger tables suitable for groups outside where most everyone sat enjoying their meals. The kimchi butter kastu chicken is a HIT! Savory, nice crunch and an enjoyable flavor new to me. The topping of sesame seeds and onions enhanced the butter crust. Also surprisingly was the Mac salad. It reminded me of Hawaii with the right balance (to me) of the smoothness of the dressing, texture of the macaroni and topped with a little paprika.

    Had lunch at the Shootz location in San Juan Capistrano yesterday. Had a Katsu Chicken Sando. There was the option of ordering one or two. One was enough food for me. Professional eaters will probably order two. It took me a few minutes to figure out you had to press a button near the cash register for service. The Katsu Chicken Sando at Shootz is Hawaiian style, so it is different than Japanese style Katsu Chicken Sandwiches. One of the differences is the little round pasta that on on the Katsu Chicken Sando. Shootz is in Rodeo River Street, a western barn style building that is part of the River Street Marketplace. The fast food places at River Street Marketplace are in Rodeo River Street. There is both indoor and outdoor seating. I sat outside.

    I cannot stress my love for this place more. We always get the chicken Katsu platter. One day we ordered it online and someone else must've taken it and they made another one for us. No problem AND gave us drinks while we waited. Truly cannot advertise them enough! Food is fire. Located in the newer food area on San Juan! Plenty of outside and inside seating but gets BUSY on the weekends.

    Combo plate with musubis
    Chanson Z.

    Rating: 6.5/10 First time trying the Shoots location in San Juan Capistrano. I've been to the Rodeo 39 location in Stanton before, and that one is noticeably better. This location is in Rodeo Plaza and has very limited seating. Not the most comfortable setup if you're planning to dine in. Service was a downside. Took about 25 minutes to get a single combo plate, which felt long for such a small order. Combo Plate (2 Musubis + Plate, Spicy) Very flavorful, but way too heavy. The first few bites were good, but it quickly became overwhelming. Extremely rich, very spicy, and felt like there was too much butter. Ended up not being able to finish it. Musubis Better than the plate. Solid overall, but nothing particularly standout. Overall, decent flavor but held back by long wait times and how heavy the food is. Not as good as the Stanton location.

    Peter T.

    Decent and quick. We stayed here for a weekend and I got the spam Masubi twice. The spam is cut in half vertically so it's super thin. There's too much rice but the green onion and sauce make it work. I wish there were more to the menu but the price to quality is present.

    Kimchi butter katsu chicken sando! Isn't it beautiful?

    The sandwich is so good I had to come here twice in one week! While service is very minimal at this take-out counter in a food court, the SANDWICH is mind-blowing! It's the crispiest, most tender chicken katsu topped with their everything mac salad, kimchi aioli, and awesome sauce between Hawaiian roll buns. It came out steaming hot and fresh. The chicken looked like it was begging to be eaten! One bite and I was hooked. I have also gotten a side of mac salad, which was good on its own, but I actually enjoyed it more in the sandwich. Probably wouldn't get it as a side again. Instead I'd go for the musubi because it looks tempting! Plenty of seating in the food court and in the cute outside area in river street marketplace. Parking is easy with 45 minutes free in the lot. I'm still dreaming of this katsu sandwich.

    A general view of the service at shoots. Literally every time I come here.
    Joe S.

    The food is good, but the service is nonexistent. It cracks me up when they ask you how much tip you want to leave and there's not a human in sight, just you and the ordering screen. Then eventually, some kid comes out of the back room with your food. Just doesn't sit right with me. Every time I come here it is like this. I like the food, though, hopefully nobody's spitting on it in the back room because I'm not tipping.

    Shootz offers a unique take on classic plate lunch dishes with an added twist! I first had seen them at Rodeo 39 years ago, but didn't get to try them out until now. This location is very cool and unique as it is in a cute food court setting along with other businesses. We opted for the number 1, which came with the kimchi butter katsu, spam brûlée musubi , rice and Mac salad, and your drink of choice. Our food came out in a timely manner, and everything tasted great! I think the only complaint I have, is the spam brûlée musubi not being equally cut, so one piece had more spam than the other . Other than that, I really enjoyed this meal. If you're looking for a meal that your tastebuds will thank you for, this is it! Try the kimchi butter katsu and spam brûlée musubi!

    Is it pet friendly?

    Shootz is in a food hall, not a restaurant. There were leashed pets in and around the outside eating areas. I'd say the River Street Marketplace is pet friendly.

    How's the parking?

The parking lot is extremely small, but there's plenty of street parking nearby, so we had no trouble finding a spot. Kawamata is a tiny operation where you order at the window and find a spot outside to eat. We ordered Salmon and Ahi bowls with various toppings, and I really liked how many options they give you. I enjoy poke both the simpler, more Hawaiian-style way and loaded with extra textures and flavors, and Kawamata gives you the option to do either. The poke itself was delicious, and the portions were very generous. I especially liked how all the toppings came together without taking away from the fish. Just keep in mind that the extras are individually priced, so your bowl can get a little expensive depending on how many you add. Overall, I really enjoyed Kawamata Seafood and can see why it gets so much love. The poke was fresh, filling, and flavorful, and I'm already looking forward to the next time I can come back.

It's a little more expensive than some other poke spots, but we think it's worth it. You can really taste the freshness of the fish, and the flavors are delicious. You can build your own bowl or choose from one of their preset options. It's a cute little hole-in-the-wall spot with a few picnic tables if you want to eat there, but we love taking ours to the park. If you're craving fresh, Hawaiian-style poke in Dana Point, definitely give this place a try!

Just very very casual and not totally comfortable. Food- 3.4/4 out of 5 - I got the Luau plate and LOVED the chicken!! Everyone else was right- that chicken thigh deserves its own plate. I also really enjoyed the coconut pudding/jello thing that came with it and the sausage link. The pulled pork was just okay, not very well seasoned but not bad. The side of "dressed greens" was just some lettuce without dressing on it, and I thought the macaroni salad was fine. The last thing that really disappointed me were the sautéed veggies :/ they were just soo oily and had no seasoning to them at all. I didn't eat any of them or the un-dressed 'salad'. My husband got the chicken katsu plate, he said the chicken katsu was fine but the fries on the side were cold and not crispy, they were kind of chalky in the mouth and didn't taste fresh. Some parts were definitely a 3/5 but my chicken thigh was so good and the portions are *huge* so I feel like they deserve a 4/5? All in all, I think I'd come back if I wanted to go out with someone but save some money and we'd split one of the plates (the portions really are huge).
