The best Japanese food you will get around the Wiregrass area. The customer service is amazing. The facility is small but good for kids and family. The owner has his art collection through out the restaurant on display. His wife is the one that typically greets you she is always so kind and friendly. Clean and offers to go and dine in options. My favorite is their Yaki Soba noodles. I get the pork and it is always flavorful. read more

Absolutely loved my experience at Tonki! The pork katsudon was delicious; my daughter and her friend enjoyed the udon, curry cutlet, and gyoza -- pure comfort food done right. The atmosphere is cozy and full of personality, with the owner's own art hanging on the walls. Speaking with him was a highlight -- you can feel the passion he brings to everything. His wife was kind. A true hidden gem! read more

I love this place and the cook does all the drawings on the walls and stuff too! Definitely worth going in

Second time coming here and loved it again so decided to write a review. It's a small restaurant and all the drawings on the walls are done by the owner. The service was fantastic and the food was flavorful. Plus once you're finished eating you can walk right next door and grab yourself some Asian groceries. read more

Tonki Donkatsu - Curt cutlet, cheesy ramen - Japanese Near Me - Daleville, Alabama

I have no idea how this place has good reviews. I have been to Japan and grew up around Japanese culture, eating amazing foods etc. I know what Japanese food is supposed to look like and this wasn't it. First the tako yaki. They use the frozen kind, and that's ok. Except the actual tako/ octopus was still frozen in the center. Not cold, it was frozen. The "Pork Ramen" was terrible. THEY USED A $0.25 INSTANT RAMEN PACK!!!! I have never seen a restaurant use instant ramen packs... The broth had no flavor, there was barely anything in the the noodles, half an egg that was still cold and a few tiny pieces of pork/ tonkatsu. I've had better instant ramen... I will never be back. This isn't it. Service was fine. read more

Tonki Donkatsu - "Pork ramen" aka $0.25 instant ramen pack sold for $12. - Japanese Near Me - Daleville, Alabama

I was impressed with several elements of the food here. I loved my katsu curry. I ordered it level 4 spicy out of 5. It was flavorful but not too spicy. Next time I'm going to 5! It came with a miso soup, a salad, and some pickled radish. The soup was fine, and the radish was delicious. In my opinion the salad was pretty plain and it needed something, such as cucumbers or a few other toppings. I liked the ginger dressing. The curry was rich and cooked to a perfect consistency. The rice and cutlet was just the right amount of food to be full but not uncomfortable. The chef is also a fantastic artist. There is art all over the walls. Unique and beautiful. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

Pretty eclectic decor inside this restaurant. Beautiful etchings made by the chef are prominently displayed. Had the chicken tonkatsu, gyoza, and miso soup. The gyoza's outer shell was rock hard though. Will probably return to try other items. Service was fast as I was the only customer at 6:30 pm. read more

The food at Tonki was wonderful. The best Japanese food I've had since I moved back from Japan. I've had the Chicken Katsu and the Tempura Ramen. Both were very good. The menu used to be more extensive before the pandey and included a Mixed Tempura plate. I miss it and wish they brought it back. read more

This was our first time dining here for lunch and it was amazing! The gyoza was yummy and we tried takoyaki for the first time- it was very good! My husband and I ordered the spicy ramen, with pork for our entrees. The soup was hot and sooo delicious. The service was lovely and the atmosphere was cozy and comfortable. We will absolutely be back, it's a must to eat here if you're stationed at Ft. Rucker or are in the Daleville area!! GO! You won't be disappointed! read more

*edit* I appreciate the owner/manger clarifying what we ordered. My boyfriend did not order the regular pork cutlet which is very crispy. So that's our mistake. So keep in mind, I live in Atlanta and I've been to Japan. I rated it a 4 based on its location and availability. Coming here was pretty easy, we were coming down to Daleville, Al for a wedding. My boyfriend and I have been curious in trying this place because - my boyfriend grew up here and when there is something new, of course he is curious. And there is nothing like this before in the area. Japanese food that isn't your typical sushi and hibachi. That is fantastic they didn't because it is getting old. We got here on Thursday and they already have a few patrons in the building. I heard one saying that they have been craving this place for awhile - so that's a good sign. The art around the building was very cute. The owner/chef hand painted all of the art around. And I really like lighting accent. Each light fixture screen had various flowers on them. Location is very clean. The manager came and took our order. I got the pork ramen and my boyfriend got the pork cutlet. They were pretty fast in taking our order. I liked the taste of the miso soup that comes with the cutlet. The ramen overall was okay, but there was an issue in cooking the noodles and the manager came to apologize, because they forgot to fry the pork, which I really appreciate the honesty. It still tasted fine. My boyfriend's cutlet breading was actually soggy. So he was disappointed. We think the salad on the dish made the pork soggy, because it was very watery. Mine was in a soup - so I didn't have the issue, because I expected it. If the pork looks like a slight tint in color- don't worry about it, they said it is due to the cut of pork and that it is fully cooked. I liked the pickled radish. It was sweet. My soup was okay. I didn't get it spicy, so I feel like I missed out in flavors. After the meal, the owner came to greet us, which I think is sweet. I think overall, you should try this place. This gives you the most authentic Japanese food that isn't so Americanized, which I'm so tired of. Especially for the area, I think they will do very well. read more

Spicy Pork Ramen and chicken Ramen was excellent. The gyoza was perfect. My wife and I had a truly enjoyable lunch experience

I hate giving a low review, especially for a small business where the owner/proprietor is so nice... so I won't . I will add a caveat that while it might seem like a Japanese place, this is Korean food. Donkatsu is a korean version of Tonkatsu. Their ramen is really ramyun. While Japanese ramen is usually handmade, Korean ramyun is nearly always instant, so Tonki is not doing anything strange by serving it that way. In fact, usually they'd just add egg and green onion, and that's it. The negatives I have are minor, when you consider what it's mean to be. First, I think the mark up on the ramen might be a bit much. I get it. A restaurant needs to make money to survive, and this is probably one of the more profitable dishes. I'd just like to see a little more value added and for them to get it back with increased traffic because they offer more value. Either jazz it up a bit more, or charge a bit less. At the very least, cook those eggs right. They always have a green ring. That's a sign you overcooked them. Cook them two minutes less and let them heat up in the broth. Second, I'd like for them to lean into the Korean nature a bit more. I'd love to see a place do a Budae Jjigae or Tteokbokki. I think people are getting confused and expecting something else when coming here. Korean food has many variants of Japanese dishes, and this place as far as I can tell is doing them exactly as you'd expect to see in Korea. read more

This place is AMAZING!! Not only is the price in a great range, it's an unbelievable value for the taste. I live in Atlanta, where there are tons of "authentic" Japanese places, but this little joint was a much better experience than a lot of those places. The curry was incredibly flavorful, the takoyaki was crispy & fluffy, the cutlet was perfectly fried, and the service was amazing. Would give 6 stars if I could!! read more

I had been wanting to try this place for awhile. There are about 6 or so tables available in here. I went with my family of two adults and one child. I order the spicy pork ramen for myself, my significant other ordered the katsudon and my little one had the yakisoba. I got to try all of these and I really could not pick a favorite they were all so well done. They have a smaller menu and I believe this to be because they are perfected the dishes they do have. Just absolutely delicious, I can't wait to go back and try all of the other dishes. read more

Nice folks, but if you're looking for authentic Japanese 豚カツ(tonkatsu) then this is not your place. Don't get me wrong the food was good, but I was hoping that this would be reminiscent of my years living in Japan, but it did not. read more

Great donkatsu in Enterprise! Our group had the katsudon, udon, and the curry donkatsu, both were great. I really enjoyed the curry donkatsu - the sauce was perfectly flavored and the pork cutlet had a perfectly crispy/crunchy exterior that was enveloped by the sauce. As soon as I took my first bite, I tasted the exact flavor that I imagine when I think of Japanese-style curry. Service was also fantastic - the only reason I didn't rate it five stars is because the sides were average and the appetizers were just decent; nothing mind-blowing. However, I would definitely come here purely for the donkatsu. Absolutely phenomenal! read more

This place is a Hidden Treasure with the best Food I was looking for a good Katsura curry since we came from hawaii not long ago it's hard to find.An even Greater Service from the owner who's an Absolute Angel !!!

Delicious food! Fast service and the couple managing the place seem genuinely interested in your satisfaction. They're polite, friendly and they check up on you regularly without being overbearing.

My friend and I went for lunch on Wednesday. We shared an order of meat dumplings. They were delicious. Then I had the Soba Noodles with chicken and he had the Ramen Noodle Bowl with chicken. I love that you get to choose your spice level on a scale of 1-5. I ordered a 2 and there was just a little lingering heat after a bite of noodles. Stephen ordered a level 3 spice. It was still in my spicy range, but I was happy I went with the 2. Everything tasted great except the soup that came with my noodles. It wasn't my favorite. I didn't ask if I could trade it out for a soup more preferable to me, but they might have let me. They were very nice and the owner's drawings which line the walls are amazing. read more

By far the best Japanese cuisine I've had in a long time. My only complaint is that I didn't discover this wonderful place sooner.
