I've been to Yumee Katsu a handful of times now, and it's become a solid go-to when I'm craving something crispy and comforting. Yumee Katsu is a modern-style katsu spot, and overall, the food is tasty even though I've definitely enjoyed some dishes more than others. My go-to order is the Assorted Katsu meal, and it's a winner for variety, flavor, and portion size. You get a couple of pieces of shrimp tempura, fish katsu, and pork & cheese katsu, plus the option to add a small side of udon or soba noodles. The fish katsu is light and flavorful, and the pork with cheese is a full-on cheese pull party. I also really enjoy their salad dressing and the dipping sauces that come with the donkatsu and fish katsu- they add a lot to the meal. The ambiance has a nice, modern vibe, and the service has always been friendly and welcoming. A small but thoughtful touch: they offer Asian candies for guests, which is a fun little refresher after your meal. Overall, Yumee Katsu is a great spot in Suwanee if you're in the mood for well-executed katsu in a cool, comfortable setting. Definitely worth checking out if you haven't already. read more

Not your traditional Japanese katsu. The menu definitely is Korean influenced katsu. Big space and lots of seating. Good service. We came in late on a weekend night (perhaps arrived around 9PM) and the place was mostly empty. Food came out fast. Our family really liking the taste and the variety. read more

We stopped in for an early lunch to take on more Katsu...this time, Korean-style Katsu! This is a Korean restaurant chain with their twist on the Japanese Katsu dishes. Frankly, I hated the website because it was strictly set in Korean...with too much busy Korean print. How is this going to be appealing to Americans? In any case, the place was sleek and stylish, but very casual at the same time. Their menu was also quite small...as this was a Katsu specialty restaurant. I tried their Tteokkbokki Katsu, and my husband got the standard Katsu plate. BTW, they had the Tonkatsu, Fish Katsu and Shrimp Katsu, but no Chicken Katsu...odd. We also added the Shrimp Katsu appetizer. Well, I personally loved it. The Katsu batter was SO crispy, and the meats were cut thin...just the way I liked it! Tteokbokki was a tad too spicy though. Not sure why they couldn't tone that down a bit? I had a hard time between 4 and 5 stars...but I'm going to drop 5 based on their stellar Katsu. I'm probably going to try them again in the future...but not the Tteokbokki plate. read more

Loved the convenient table ordering! I got the Yumee katsu with the udon! The katsu did come with lots of sides! I definitely enjoyed the cabbage salad the most. I thought the katsu was breaded well and it was crispy and the cuts were the perfect thickness. I do think their katsu sauce could've been more flavorful though. The udon with the set also could've been hotter. The soup was just lukewarm which I didn't enjoy as much. The service was friendly and they came to ask if we needed any refills! Overall, I would love to be back to try their other katsu dishes. read more

On the first visit, I ordered the curry udon set and the katsu is the freshest I've had in the area. Will be back to try other dishes because the food is delicious, quality, and the prices are affordable for me. Love those perfectly toothsome noodles! I've visited many other times, early for lunch before they get too crowded. Must say that this is the most tender, juicy, and flakey crispy dongas that I've had in Georgia so far. My favorite is the fried shrimp. Their citrus salad dressing is addictive. Their sides are unlimited so keep ordering as much as you like. Note that you can order a side of hot or cold soba, but it is difficult to find on the English menu. I love their cold soba. Cafe atmosphere. Can't wait for their 2nd location to open in Duluth on Old Norcross. read more

Delicious Katsu! The fry on the breading was top notch. The katsu shrimp were a first for me and definitely something I will go back for more of. The cheese katsu was not really my style, but was as well made as the rest. The service was a bit slower than I would have expected for having a tablet ordering system but they are still a newer restaurant and it was a relaxed meal anyway. The place was great looking as expected from a new restaurant and the modern vibes were a nice touch for the meal. The sauces were solid, the salad was ok, the soup was fish based so not for me, and the kimchi dikon was alright. I wil be going back. read more

Yumee Katsu - Katsu Sampler - Japanese Near Me - Suwanee, Georgia

Yumee is a chain from Korea that just opened in Suwanee, as a part of the katsu craze that's been going around in ATL. Interior is nice and ordering was convenient as you order via the tablet. We tried the soba, curry katsu, and topokki katsu. My favorite was the refreshing summer soba that had amazing flavors! As for the katsu, its more on the bland side but loved the clean, non-greasy, tender, and crispy bites. It definitely needs sauce, curry, etc to help with the flavor but was still solid for the texture. The side of cabbage is a bit lackluster as the sauce had no flavor and wished it had more of a vinegar kick but loved the kkakdugi and radish sides to cleanse your palate. Would come back again! read more

It's literally in the name... YUMEEEEEEEEE! The spicy tofu soup katsu was so delicious, service was great and you can easily order by clicking a few buttons on the tablet. I also got the assorted katsu (so I could try everything out) and the shrimp was surprisingly tasty and super CRISPY. I think this is an amazing in and out restaurant, quick food, good service all around 5/5!! read more

Yumee Katsu - Japanese Near Me - Suwanee, Georgia

As businesses begin to utilized social media, their customer base will be coming from whatever algorithm will afford. It did me because I saw this place on social media and since it's another katsu joint, it must be tried and suffice to say, it's not bad! This location is in the plaza that shares the new Sambong, Gopchang Salon, CowWow, and the BBQ Chicken place off L'ville-Suwanee Rd. If you hit the H-Mart, you've passed it as it's got one of the most unassuming signage you can create. Inside, is spacious. Looks to seat roughly 60-80 heads. It's well lit, has a very Japanese decor to the interior, yet still provides a decent amount of coziness to your table without it being too dark. Now for the food. Being that it's a katsu place, I had to go with their flagship entree, the Yumee Katsu and also pair it with a mini soba which let's me for real, I love how they do soba here. It's not dipping soba which I love. The soba sits in a cold broth of dashi, soy sauce, and mirin which they season with some cabbage and toasted sesame seeds. Now for the katsu itself. The katsu itself is thick. Thick and juicy which delivers an amazing porky flavor. It's also fried beautifully. The crust is crunchy, flaky, and evenly distributed over the pork meat. Yet the fried panko doesn't mask the flavor of the pork which some places tend to do so the panko pork ratio is simply perfect because you get the initial crunch but then the thick pork meat hits your teeth and it's a beautiful marriage of crunchy with the meaty tenderness of the pork protein. They give you their own katsu dipping sauce, some mini cubed radish, two cubes of radish kimchi, and on the plate, a heaping handful of sliced cabbage with a dressing drizzled on top which provides another textural dimension from the fried pork. The katsu plate is $15. Since I added the mini soba which was another $2 then tax and tip, you're looking at at about $20-$24 in order to eat here. Not bad. Definitely worth visiting for a casual hang or even a date and you don't want to do the normal Atlanta date scene and feel like grabbing something different. read more

Katsu didn't taste as good as some of the other Katsu places I've been to in the area but that's fine. If the quality was good it would've been worth the price but it wasn't. The service itself was fine though but overalls average when it comes to Katsu. read more

This is my new favorite Katsu place! The Pork Katsu is very juicy, not dry at all. The batter is very crispy, i guess because of the rack they use on the plate. The Kimchi Nabe is so spicy, I didn't expect that. read more

Food is great. Service absolutely sucks. Not once did anyone come by and asked if we needed anything. Not once. Had to constantly ask. I would suggest having a self service center where you can pick up utensils, water, and etc and get rid of the tip if it's going to be that way. Food is great tho. read more

Yumee Katsu - Japanese Near Me - Suwanee, Georgia

This is a fun spot. You are seated by a host but you order through a tablet at a table which is nice. This is a tonkatsu specialty place but they also have full size udon, soba and curry if you are not into the pork. If you are though... i highly recommend the cheese tonkatsu!! The cheese is ooey gooey and is inside a pork "bowl". The sauce served with it is very fresh and has a chunkier consistency the most tonkatsu sauce I have tried, texture reminded me of applesauce. The sauce is so good I wish they gave a little bit more. You can get a combo and the side choices are either a full or small size soba, udon or curry. I love the mini cold soba. Definitely a place added to my favorites rotation! read more

Best katsu in Georgia so far! Love how soft and tender the katsu was. Breading could have been a little firmer/crispier. I love the set I got which included topokki . I love the dressing that came with the cabbage. Also I like how they have the self ordering tablets. Convenient location in Suwanee. Would come again :) read more

Interior is clean and minimal! Katsu has thick cuts of meat and is cooked well. The katsu by itself can be a little heavy/greasy, but it pairs nicely with the citrusy side salad. Ordering is done via a tablet on the table, which is efficient. Servers walk around with a cart for refills on radish sides and sauces. read more

WOW Yumee Katsu blew me away!! The chicken was insanely good - juicy, moist, and perfectly crispy . But the real star for me? The spicy chewy noodles!! Served cold, chewy, and bursting with flavor - seriously addictive. We also tried the assorted katsu (so crunchy & delicious ) and the kimchi babe, which was an absolute flavor bomb . And can we talk about the people? The host and owner were beyond kind - you can feel how much love they put into this place. Plus, the restaurant is spotless and super welcoming . This spot is next-level good. If you haven't tried Yumee Katsu yet, RUN, don't walk ‍ because it's easily one of the best meals you'll have!! read more

Saw someone post about this new tonkatsu place on Instagram, so I had to check it out. I went for my favorite -- tonkatsu curry udon -- and it totally hit the spot. The cutlet was perfectly crispy, the meat tender, and the curry rich and flavorful. I also enjoyed the side dishes. It's a franchise from Korea with a simple, straightforward menu. You order right from a tablet, which makes it super easy. Overall, a great first visit -- I'll definitely be back to try more dishes! read more

Since the Duluth location doesn't have a yelp, I'm posting this review here to find clarity. On 11/06/2025 we arrived at the Yumee Katsu location at 8:05. Upon entering, there were two occupied tables and nobody at the kiosk. As we were browsing the kiosk. One of the workers grabbed my attention to let me know they were cleaning the kitchen at the moment and would not be able to take our order for another 20 minutes. Odd... since they close at 9 and it was only 8:05. We said okay and sat down. As we were waiting for maybe around 5 minutes, the same worker told me that the kitchen was now closed. I was in confusion... you asked me to wait 20 minutes to order, but 5 minutes later your kitchen is closed? When I had asked why their kitchen was closed since online they close at 9, she told me that the kitchen closes at 8:15 (45 minutes before the posted hours of the store closing). So for clarity, I had asked why she would ask us to order 20 minutes later, but then close the kitchen at 8:10, she told me I could order now but they will close at 9. We told her we would be leaving and not coming back. Whoever the owner is needs to clarify kitchen closing times and restaurant closing times with the wait staff and kitchen crew. We will not be going back. There's other katsu places around the area who have an idea what time they close. read more

It was my first time at this restaurant. There's a kiosk in the front if you want to order take-out. Each table has a tablet that you can order. I was confused whether I should pay now or after I get my food (usually after in most restaurants except BBMyun). I clicked on the check button to see if there's a pay option and ended up calling a waitress over. She told me to pay now so I did but it was my first time having someone asking me for a tip when I did not receive the food yet. I was flabbergasted and thought should I just do a take out instead. The food came out in less than 15 min. The waitress apologized for the miscommunication. It was also my fault for not asking and just go straight for the tablet. Anyway, I ordered the donkatsu curry udon ($18). The pork cutlet was perfectly fried -- super crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, without being greasy. The portion was generous, and the presentation was clean and appetizing. The curry sauce had a rich flavor that paired so well with the udon. I also loved the salad and soup that came with the meal -- everything tasted fresh and well-balanced. The restaurant itself was cozy and spotless- perfect for casual lunch. If you're craving authentic, high-quality donkatsu, this place definitely hits the spot! read more

I got the huge king donkatsu plate to try it, and I liked the soup side dish and the cabbage but the katsu itself was pretty oily and heavy. I would probably come by to try other dishes though. They gave free melona pops after we finished eating, which was so nice! read more

Was there during vacation. We ordered King katsu,Assorted,Curry katsu,Tokkboki katsu. All dishes were great and not greasy. The King katsu was massive and tasty. The chef came out and checked on us which was admirable. As far as Katsu goes,consider yourselves lucky to have this place in your area. read more

This is their second location and I honestly love this one. Some of... if not the BEST kastu you will find in Suwanee. Just amazing! We had a bit of an issue with one of the debit cards and the owner was so kind to us even with me insisting on making it right. Large restaurant with alot of seating. Will definitely be coming back to express my gratitude for his kindness. Seriously flood this place and make sure they stay here long and do really well. read more

Visited Yumee Katsu with family and really enjoyed the experience. The space was clean and comfortable, and I liked the relaxed vibe.

The portions were just right, the dishes were tasty and nicely prepared, and it made for a lovely spot to share a meal. read more

-came here twice in a row because I know they're working thru some things but second time was worse -first time I came everything was pretty fresh but the wait time was 35+ min and staff didn't come by to check on us which was somewhat understandable because they were packed -service overall was subpar, we noticed other larger parties who came later got served first -donkatsu breading was a little bland for my liking and it did come a little pink so if you're not used to that just a warning lol -noodles were bouncy and curry flavor was perfect the first time coming -second time I came it seemed like they were trying to makeup for the longer wait times by prepping food in advance but the donkatsu was very soggy and oily and EXTREMELY salty; udon soup was salty, curry sauce was salty -since it's a new restaurant it feels clean but bathroom could use some work -trying to give them more credit, but for a place where the customer orders on a tablet, it doesn't really make sense for the tip options to start at 18% -if water or kimchi is self serve my party didn't see a station anywhere and were not notified, otherwise both times no one came to check up on water or how the food was -not entirely willing to try again read more
