Really liked it here, would definitely come back. I got the chicken katsu curry and it was great! Pleasant and quick service. Walking in, it was a casual and inviting dining ambience. It was a little past lunch hour and it was thankfully not too busy when I came in. I was seated right away and ordered at the tablet mounted to the table. There was also an option on the tablet to call for assistance or to get your check if you need it as well. I had the chicken katsu curry and it really satisfied my katsu craving. The chicken was super crispy but also light and wasn't dry. All the sides that came with it were standard including kimchi, pickled radish slices, cabbage, and miso soup. I'm picky with my miso soup but this one wasn't too salty and had a good balance of flavor. The crisps in the soup were already soggy when it came out, but it's to be expected I suppose. What surprised me most was the dressing over the cabbage. It wasn't to my taste because it was oddly sweet and I prefer mine plain. They mentioned after I asked that it was a sort of yuzu sauce but it missed the mark for me. The service was good and prompt. After placing my order I got my food within 10 - 15 minutes of waiting and my server checked on me once or twice during my meal. I asked for my check via the tablet and they handed it to me soon after, also answering my questions before heading out. I came in hungry and it was a perfect portion for me. I can eat a fair amount but if you're the type who devours food I reccommend getting another side, dessert, or a little something extra if you aren't as easily satiated. I'm not sure if or how they accomodate larger groups but I'd be a little wary because the space seemed a little small. I was sat behind someone and barely pulling out my chair I was already almost touching theirs. I just tried to be mindful but other diners did occasionally smack against my seat. read more

Yumee Katsu - Chicken Katsu Curry - Korean Near Me - San Jose, California

I was planning to eat at Paris Baguette next door, but something drew me in to this place. Maybe it was the large groups of people heading in. Maybe it was the welcoming and kind greetings from the staff. Inside, the place is small but comfortable and clean. Each table has it's own ipad for ordering. I got the chicken katsu with curry. Definitely loved it. Perfectly crispy and moist meet, not dry. Curry was delicious. read more

Pretty good Korean katsu place in the neighborhood. Feels like a good casual neighborhood spot to grab a meal since it is quite cozy inside with inviting decor. The katsu we tried, chicken and pork, were crispy and tender, but not as juicy as other katsu we've had before. Still good though. I wasn't a fan of the shrimp katsu since it was over-breaded and very little shrimp. On previous occasions we went, we thought the dipping sauce portion was really skimpy, so I hope that will change. I also would've preferred the salad dressing to be more tart to refresh my palate in between bites of katsu because it was more like a sweet citrus dressing rather than a vinaigrette. Overall, pretty good katsu spot in the neighborhood that also offers curry, noodles, and rice cakes. read more

I had a great experience dining here. The server was friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was taken care of throughout the meal. The food was also delicious. I ordered the Chicken Katsu Spicy Chewy Noodle & Cheese Katsu, and it was flavorful, well prepared, and very satisfying. Overall, it was a great dining experience, and I would definitely come back again. The chicken katsu really stood out. It was crispy on the outside, juicy and tender on the inside, and cooked perfectly. Every bite had a great crunch without being greasy, and it paired really well with the spicy chewy noodles and cheese. It was easily one of the best chicken katsu dishes I've had. read more

Yumee Katsu - Korean Near Me - San Jose, California

We came around lunchtime on a weekend. It wasn't too busy, so we were seated quickly. We ordered the Topokki Katsu and a Chicken Katsu with a mini udon. The katsu for both were crispy, but a bit on the drier side. The topokki was okay; serviceable, but not noteworthy. The sides complimented the heaviness of the katsu quite well. The portions are large, here! It's not far fetched to have a little bit left over for later. read more

I'm on a mission: try every katsu place in the Bay Area, so I had to hit up Yumee Katsu (pronounced You-Mee). This is a Korean/Japanese fusion spot; they serve a shoyu flavored miso, kimchi, radish, and cabbage + lemon dressing to accompany your dish. FOOD: Chicken Curry Katsu (4/5) - I honestly expected more curry, given that it's a curry katsu. It feels like the curry is just there for presentation because there wasn't much. The chicken was nicely battered and crisped. It was $23, on the pricier end for curry katsu yet still enjoyable. I'm assuming there is an up charge for the side dishes. Yumee Donkatsu (5/5) - So good! Personally I'm not big on pork katsu, but the meat was juicy and lightly fried. By itself it was decent but the katsu sauce and wasabi enhanced every bite. Honestly I didn't even need rice for this because it filled me up. SERVICE: The waitresses are nice and quick. They give you a menu, but you order using an iPad. You pay at the counter when you're done. I have no complaints about this place other than the location they chose. This plaza is infamous for its parking....It's out of the way for me but if I'm in the area I'd definitely come back to this place! read more

New katsu spot opened up in the Ranch 99 plaza on Hostetter, taking over Vons Chickens. The interior looks pretty much the same, except maybe with more tables. Came here for an early dinner. The restaurant already had a few patrons dining and there was a wait by the time we left. Since it's in a plaza, there's plenty of parking but it gets extremely busy since there are other popular stores here. There's an iPad connected to the table where you can order your food. They have katsu dishes of all kinds. We ordered the katsu with ramen and dry noodles. The portions are huge, which makes sense because the price point is a bit higher for a meal around here (around $18-25 w/o tax and tip) but it's comparable to other katsu places around. You get side dishes with your dish. The katsu was well fried and not too oily. The ramen was pretty standard and so were the dry noodles. Service was good, as the waiters were very attentive and brought us water often. Food came out quickly as well. Would come back here! read more

I definitely prefer Japanese Katsu, but Yumee is a solid choice if I wanted something more unique. I tried three dishes here: Rose Topokki Katsu, Cheese Katsu, and Donkatsu Spicy Noodles. Rose Topokki was the star and everything else was so-so. The rose topokki was delicious and I liked the crunchy flakes. The Cheese Katsu was okay because I prefer more meat than cheese ratio. I did not like the DonKatsu Spicy Noodles because the noodles were cold and tasted like kimchi.. Overall, the katsu here is tender and fried well. I would only get the rose topokki next time. After trying three dishes, I defintely got flavor fatigue from the katsu and was tired of eating fried food. I also liked the little banchan and the soups! read more

Yumee Katsu is a new restaurant that opened up and took the space of where Von's Chicken used to be in this mall. The parking is horrendous on the weekends. If you are lucky to find a spot, you will see the restaurant by Paris Baguette and Venus Cafe. The interior is nicely decorated and modern. The service is friendly and attentive. Donkatsu Spicy Chewy Noodle - first off, the noodles are cold like a salad. Don't get me wrong, it was a flavorful, hint of spiciness, and thick chewy noodles. The katsu was fried to a golden brown. Assorted Katsu - pork katsu, shrimp katsu, and cheese katsu. A good entree if you are undecided on what to get or just want to try a variety of fried choices. Support your local business. read more

First time visiting this place for dinner, and it was a good experience. The environment is nice, and it was very easy to find parking. I ordered the shrimp with curry--the presentation was definitely impressive, and the shrimp was perfectly crispy. My friend ordered the fish, and it tasted really good as well. Because of that positive experience, I decided to revisit for lunch on a Monday. I was surprised to find that no one else was there. I ordered the fish katsu, but unfortunately, I was very disappointed. The fish had a strange smell and tasted a bit like hand soap. I mentioned this to the waitress, just so the kitchen could be aware and pay attention to the issue. Since the food quality seems to be pretty inconsistent between visits, I'm giving it 3 stars for now. read more

Waited around 30 mins before getting seated. Quite a lot of people joining the waitlist during the dinner hour rush. We got the assorted katsu(pork, shrimp and cheese) and also the chicken katsu curry. I find the chicken katsu to be the least dry and juicer than most. Cheese katsu has a nice cheese pull. I like how there are the pickled radish and kimchi on the sides, along with salad. Presentation is a plus too. -**: fried shrimp katsu is not crispy. Outer layer is too thin, so texture is almost mushy(?). Also the price for the set is normal, but the add-on side dishes are out of place. Ex: The mini udon is $5.99 and probably the size of a small fist size. It's equivalent of 2 mouthful udons. Don't think I'll get it again. read more

A new katsu place opened so I knew I had to try it. Since it was late dinner and they were about to close, I got take out. Rose Toppoki Katsu (4/5): Remember this is take-out! This dish comes with rose toppoki (so great if you can't handle spicy) and a katsu. The katsu tasted a bit dry and it didn't blend well with the bed crumbs. The toppoki was good, but couldn't taste much of the rose flavor. I would like to dine in at this place next time. read more

[Food] Takeout - Assorted Katsu ($25.99): Comes with rice, salad w/ dressing, sauce (katsu sauce & tartar), and soup. Also comes with pickled daikon and kimchi! I enjoyed the pork katsu and the shrimp, but I think the cheese one is a bit too heavy for me. You also have to eat the cheese one fast before it gets cold and hardens. - Extra Curry ($5.99): Yum! I'm glad I got extra to dip my katsu in or even with more rice. - Curry Katsu ($23.99): I feel like the takeout portion may be a tad smaller than if you were to dine-in. The tonkatsu is more on the lean side, but the curry has a nice flavor. Also comes with soup, salad, and some picked radish & kimchi. [Service] - Fast, friendly, helpful - Order via kiosk tablet [Ambiance] - Decent amount of seating indoors - Parking can get packed during peak dinner hours as it is in the plaza where 99 Ranch, Gen, Kura, Paris Baguette, Venus Cafe, etc are at. [Overall] - Would come back again to try other dishes! read more

Was pleasantly surprised to find Yumee Katsu as a new addition to the busy Pacific Rim Plaza on Hostetter Road. We stopped by for a late Friday lunch and the restaurant was initially empty but quickly filled up minutes after we were seated. Service was super friendly and informative when explaining the different menu options. Ordering is done on the iPads at each table- we ended up ordering the curry shrimp katsu udon and the regular Yumee pork katsu set. Food arrived piping hot in a few minutes with 2 small sides of kimchi and radish, dipping sauce, and soup. All the food was great- the pork katsu was tender and crispy and came with a good portion size while the curry shrimp katsu udon was also good but much smaller in portion. They exceeded my expectations and I'm excited to go back for more! read more

This place offers a variety of katsu dishes paired with different items such as curry, noodles, tteokbokki, and soft tofu. Each table has a tablet that you can use to place your order. I noticed a few reviews on here mention that the katsu was on the drier side so I decided to order the donkatsu ramen. It kinda reminds me of army stew but with katsu instead of spam and sausage. I can see how the katsu might be too dry, especially if you don't have something to dip it in like curry or soup. Overall, I enjoyed my dish but I also got tired of it halfway through eating it. The noodles started getting very soft and the katsu was getting soggy. My cousin ordered the rose toppokki katsu. I tried a piece of her tteokbokki and it tasted a bit undercooked. The tteokbokki was harder than it should be. We came right when they opened on a weekday so we were seated right away and our food came out pretty quick as well. I feel like they could've done a better job with checking in on us and refilling our water though because we finished the whole bottle of water on our table but no one ever refilled it. The meal came out to be about $30 per dish which I think is a bit pricy for the quality and amount of food you get. Not sure if I'd come back. read more

Yumee Katsu - Donkatsu ramen - Korean Near Me - San Jose, California

I'm so glad to try this location of Yumee Katsu, I am glad to not have to drive all the way to Dublin! The staff will direct you to a table. You order on a table at the table and they bring it out. There's not too much interaction. The restaurant is cute and clean. It was not overwhelmingly loud when we went, as the Dublin location is sometimes. I wanted to try something different from my usual order of spicy noodle with tonkatsu, so I got the tkeobokki today. The portion was a little smaller than I was expecting, but a ok size for one person. I got the pork katsu and it was great. It was soft and juicy and crispy on the outside. The tkeobokki was chewy and spicy and sweet. I would prefer the tkeobokki to be a little less cooked and there to be more sauce personally, but it was still good. The citrus salad dressing was very good and refreshing. The kimchi was very fermented. The king katsu was soo crispy, and yet still not too dry for how thin it was. We go the sauce on the side and that makes it easier to eat and crispy for longer. It is a completely different mouthfeel to the other katsu. The only negative was that the rice was very mushy. I loved it, and would come back! read more

Came here for the soft opening, and was very surprised at how good it was! The Yumee Katsu is a pork Katsu (and does come with rice ). The batter was very crispy and the meat was tender! Not dry at all. The curry Katsu was the Yumee Katsu with curry, and was also plentiful and well cooked. What stood out to us was that we got a mini udon for our toddler, but it came with spicy sauce. The waitress noticed it was for our baby, and proactively took it back and removed the spice! Such service! I liked the decorations as well with a wooden interior. We both agreed that we would definitely come back again!! read more

Saw they were soft opening in the neighborhood so wanted to given them a try and got some take out. I ordered the Rose Toppokki Katsu. Price is a bit steep, almost $30 after tax and the portion was small... as seen in the picture. Maybe it's because I got to-go and not eating it fresh but the katsu was not crispy and was actually quite tough. For tteokbokki part, it tasted like regular instead of rose. Color also doesn't look the same as their online picture for rose as well so I am unsure if they gave me the wrong order or not but they definitely charged for a rose toppokki. They're still soft opening so maybe still figuring things out but overall not impressed with the taste and price. Cashier was nice though. If I come back, I'll have a sit down meal since to-go didnt seem like the way to go. read more

No wait for a weekday dinner! Service is minimal, after getting seated they bring water, then you order on tablet and wait. I was excited for a katsu place so close to my house but it was kind of just ok. Katsu meat was good and crunchy, but cheese katsu had basically no meat in it, only cheese. Side dishes and soup were sooo little and the salad was the most disappointing of all. Since it's just cabbage you'd expect more but portions are little and doesn't taste fresh. Poorly cut and dirty :( Really wished I liked it more or sides were refillable! read more

Always excited to try out new restaurants in our neighborhood. We ordered 2 dishes, which was enough to feed 3 people. Shrimp Curry Katsu - was our favorite because the curry sauce was the BOM. There was plenty of rice to soak up the yummy sauce. Assorted Katsu - included 2 cheese katsu, 2 shrimp tempura, and a bunch of chicken katsu over noodles. The cheese katsu was a new thing for me, love the complementary textures. It was a good meal. I would come back again. read more

So glad to see another Katsu curry spot open up in North side SJ. The food was so perfect for the weather as it was raining and cold. Since it was still their soft opening, there weren't many people in the restaurant. The interior of the restaurant was very aesthetic as it replicates a lot of Japanese designs to go with the food. I like that the waitress also let us choose where to sit. Service was also fast and east as everything you order is through a tablet. I ordered the Shrimp Katsu Curry, Pork Katsu, and Rose Tteboki. All were delicious and you can tell that they made with fresh ingredients! They also had a bunch of banchans on the side that were also really tasty! I will be coming back! read more

A bit pricey compared to other katsu places but still good and I would go if I was in the area and didn't want to drive anywhere else.

We went on a Tuesday for lunch so the ambiance was nice and it wasn't super crowded. read more

Having this place close to home makes it a great go to. Been here twice already in a short period of time. The parking is not great but can always find one near by. If the place is busy, you would have to put your name on the waitlist. Both times We ordered similar dishes. The first was the Tteokbokki Katsu chicken, the spicy level on this is no joke. Comes with a side salad, soup, and toppings. The katsu chicken is tender. The 2nd time we came I opt for the less spicy version, Rose. This is a much creamier sauce and almost tastes very cheesy, which my daughter loves. It seems she is on a mission for the best tteokbokki. The staff is friendly and it gets really busy. The wait is never too long, the place is kinda small inside. Would def come back. read more

3.5/5 rounded down Chicken Spicy Chewy Noodles - 4/5 The Spicy is probably an overstatement but I also take spice really well so won't dock them for that. This does come out as a cold dish which knocks down 0.5 points. The Chicken Katsu also came out barely room temperature which also sucked for another -0.5. With that said, the noodles themselves were the highlight of the dish, with the chicken bringing it down. And again, will point out that I really do think this would be better off as a "hot" dish. Above, I put "hot" in quotes, because even the curry katsu dishes came out pretty room temperature which is a huge disappointment. When you're paying $21-26 pre-tax/tip per person I'm expecting made to order, not room temperature dishes. Furthermore, if they are coming out room temperature, is there really an point in a waiting time for dishes. I do want to come back to try out their other options such as the ramen and cheese katsu, but overall, this is a weak contender in the curry-space when you look at the pricing, serving size, and quality as a whole. Slightly would also recommend checking in with their hours when they grand open since I came at 2:57 when they were "suppose to be open" but they said they would be taking a lunch that day at 3 pm for an hour, which really sucked as none of their hours were stating that. read more

There aren't many katsu places here in the bay so I was super excited to try this! We had the rose tteokbokki which had a lot of fish cake and chewy rice cake to share. My sister got the Yumee katsu which was good but we expected more sauce and she said usually they give curry sauce as well. I got the Korean katsu and it came with a sweet tomato sauce which was good. And my dad go the curry katsu. Something I noticed was the meat was a bit dry and they don't give much sauce (Korean sauce, katsu sauce, curry sauce) so towards the end it was super dry. Service was good you just order on a tablet. It's a quick bite vibe. If they gave more sauce and made the katsu crispier or juicier I would come back. read more

Decent place for Katsu if you don't want to go to Milpitas (yes, that one is better). This is more like a 3.5 stars. Not bad for plan B King Pork Katsu (3.5/5): It looks bigger than it is. It is so thin. If you are into thick katsu, this is not it, and you will be disappointed. Topokki Katsu: 3.5/5. The pork Katsu is still relatively thin, but it as thin as the King Pork Katsu. Not a lot of topokki either. It is mild spicy. Spicy pork and pork katsu (3/5): it comes with little sauce for the katsu. Spicy pork is decent. There is not enough rice. read more

Portions are large and it's a good value for the money. I had enough left over that I needed a box. It wasn't crowded on a Friday night. You order on an iPad and they're super nice and attentive.

New and hot katsu place in town! This place is YUMEEEE! My friends and I got here around 7:30pm on a Saturday and it was really busy. We had to wait about 30 minutes at most after waitlisting in person. Since the place isn't too big and there are a lot of tables, it's pretty cramped. Also the parking lot in this area sucks too since its in a plaza with popular food/drink options.   They have a lot to choose from on their menu ranging from their different katsus, curry katsus, special menu katsus, and their normal noodle dishes.   I got their katsu curry udon and it was so good! The curry is flavorful but I asked if I could make it spicy and they gave me some sriracha with chili powder. The katsu was fried nicely and was crunchy but of course sitting in the curry made the crunchiness go away. They also give side dishes such as kimchi, pickled radish, soup and a salad which made the entire email even tastier! The only thing I thought could be better was how cooked the udon noodles were. They were too soft for my liking and felt a bit overcooked which is why im giving it stars.   The service is standard for soft opening but I understand that it was super busy. I will definitely be coming back to try their other dishes on their special menu. THey have a rose topokki katsu and that sounds so good! read more

This parking lot can get crowded and it can be hard to find parking. There's a decent amount of seating inside and you order through the kiosk. This place can get busy as well. The workers are friendly and the service was good. The canned watermelon soda was really sweet and okay. All the food items we ordered was enjoyable and high quality from the rose Tteok-bokki to the assorted katsu itself. The side dishes that came with the meal were good too. The food didn't really take too long to come out either. Definitely would come here again. This might be my favorite katsu spot in the area. read more

Craving Korean katsu and found this place! Their korean style giant katsu reminds me of the old days when I used to eat them in Korea :) It was a bit pricey in my own opinion but it does hit the spot! Loved spicy chewy noodle too! But donkatsu in donkatsu spicy chewy noodle did not have a katsu sauce at all. you have to order katsu sauce on the side for $2.99 if you want. They said it is because you can eat katsu with the spicy chewy noodle sauce. Service was fast and great! Servers were nice. read more

Soft opening for Yumee Katsu, came for dinner family style to try multiple dishes! The interior design is very aesthetic, you can tell everything is clean and brand new. They offer booth and table seating and ordering is done through a tablet installed into the table. Service was pretty good considering only 1 server working. Onto the food review! (PS loved the kimchi and the pickled radish) Big Katsu 10/10 Spicy Pork Katsu 10/10 Curry Udon Katsu 6.9/10 The big Katsu was enormous!! If you have a big appetite and can eat I would order this 110%. Very filling and a generous amount of portioning. The sauce provided for it was very delicious. This Katsu is flakier and crispier than the other two dishes. The spicy pork Katsu was also very scrumptious! The spicy pork had incredible flavor and if you're looking for the best of both worlds this is it!! I thoroughly enjoyed the flavors and was not expecting the spicy pork to be as good as it was; it lives up to the yummy name. The curry udon Katsu is a dish that fell flat. Did not really enjoy it and the portion sizing was very small compared to the other two dishes, and had barely any udon noodles. Definitely would not recommend it and would not order it again. The flavor was mild as well. Overall the experience was 4/5! Great experience, ambiance was good and 66% of the dishes ordered were magnificent. JD Big Back Tip: Avoid the noodle dishes because they don't give you the extra sides that come with the rice dishes! read more

So happy for another katsu place in South Bay! Our party of three tried the Rosé Tteokbokki katsu, rice curry katsu, and assorted katsu. While the food was good, I think the assorted katsu is the best value for what you're getting: 2 pieces of shrimp, 2 cheese katsu, and rest regular katsu pieces. I'm more appreciative of the wide selection of choices on their menu, from regular Tteokbokki to Rosé Tteokbokki, udon noodles, an entire separate selection for curry options, etc. I think this is a good spot for people who have a variety in tastes and want a lot of different options/preferences to choose from. The staff were also very nice and friendly! We order from the kiosk at the tables. It is located in a plaza so lots of parking spots available. One restroom in the restaurant and is pretty clean. read more

Was looking for a place to eat dinner with a friend and didn't know there was this new katsu place that appeared on yelp and did not have to drive all the way to Santa Clara for some katsu. I haven't had katsu in a long time as well. If I remember correctly it took over a Korean fried chicken spot, but anyways. Staff are friendly and great. Ordering is through tablets which is great which I totally prefer rather than calling a person for orders. I ordered the assorted katsu, it was good, I also ordered the ramen, totally forgot to take a picture that was good, as well but kinda spicy for me. Overall great food and experience, would definitely go again. read more

Been a little while since I've eaten in this plaza. I remember the countless times I came here to get Korean fried chicken, but alas.. a new katsu place has appeared! Was in the mood for some katsu and heard a few things about Yumee and their other locations. Came in and was greeted and was just told to sit anywhere. Each table has its own tablet that you can use to order from. The staff here were really friendly and gave us a physical menu as well just to be able to browse it all at a glance compared to navigating the tablet. My lady and I ordered the Topokki (tteokbokki) Katsu and the Cheese Katsu. The tteokbokki was nice, sweet, and spicy with it on the milder side for me. Just enough of a kick to be enjoyable but mouth burning at all. The soup is the same broth/dashi that you would get with udon, which they also serve. The salad is shredded cabbage with a light and bright dressing that's refreshing and can be a nice palette cleanser along with the pickled daikon radish. Overall, a nice and wonderful meal. read more
