Katsu-hama

Outstanding, the Chicken Katsu Don was very good and a very large portion. The egg was done perfectly and the chicken was very tender with a perfect crunchy outside. The service was fast and couteous. I’ll definitely be returning. Water was refilled without asking and there was no wait to sit at around dinner time.

I went to the Katsu-Hama on 55th since I stayed at a hotel around that area. We went here for lunch one day and tried essentially everything on the menu. I really like the broth they use for their ramen. It's a very strong pork flavor soup that makes the experience so much better! Also had one of their signature Berkshire Pork Katsu. What amazed me was the sauce they gave you to mix yourself, I believe was sesame and katsu sauce. Add that one top of your Pork katsu and it was absolutely delicious! The place is not that pricey despite all the food that we ordered! Would definitely come again whenever I visit New York!

I like a good crusted tonkatsu every now and again, and that is exactly what you get. It's something that's hard to make at home since you need to use so much oil for the deep frying and it can be so hard to keep the right temperature too. They give you unlimited servings of cabbage too if you need something to lighten the meal up. Will come back again when I feel like a good tonkatsu again.

The name says it all -- this is a go-to for all things katsu!! While they have their "staple" menu, there is also a seasonal menu worth checking out. Katsu is always perfectly assembled. Come after 4pm and you will be rewarded with complimentary rice and cabbage slaw refills when ordering the set meal. Other non-katsu dishes include noodles and ramen.

Always wanna go back to eat Kaki Fry which is Fried Oyster, Ton Katsu which is breaded Pork and beef bowl. But for some reason the first time I went there the Oyster was delish just like I remembered and the tonkatsu was small and the next time went back they changed the Fried Oyster by making the outter part alot more fillimg than the Oyster inside which is weird texture and the Oyster got smaller. I wanna give a try again and see. It’s been half a year ago last time I went as of June 4th 2019.

This place has really good Katsu! They're pork loin is top notch and tasted amazing. Really tender and good bits of fat without being too much. They fried the Katsu to perfection. Nice and crisp without being too oily. The curry was just the right amount of spicy for Japanese curry. I ordered it with the "b set" which came with shredded cabbage and miso soup. Both really good. Their dressing is over of my favorites. A friend told me they give you free refills on soup, salad, and rice but I guess that's no longer the case? That's a real shame.
