Amazing Katsu

This place is a hidden gem, serving truly amazing katsu! It's rare to find a katsu specialty spot in the Bay Area, so I'm thrilled to have discovered my new go-to.Keep in mind, this is a pick-up-only location with no dine-in options. While it's a bit disappointing--since katsu is best enjoyed fresh and hot--I can only imagine how incredible it would taste straight from the kitchen. Hopefully, they'll offer dine-in one day!I tried the Ebi Tempura, which came with tartar sauce, and it did not disappoint. The shrimp were huge, incredibly soft, with no sign of any chewiness! The batter was light, crispy, and fried to perfection.The Cheese Katsu is another hit! The gooey mozzarella cheese is wrapped in a thin layer of pork all coated in a light & flaky batter. The katsu sauce is tangy and savory, a perfect compliment to the dish.The service was warm and friendly, and I'll definitely be coming back whenever I'm craving katsu!

Amazing Katsu is a fun, pop-up style restaurant located in the Santa Clara Elite Event Center specializing in different styles of katsu. I was first introduced by attending a Yelp Elite event and was very impressed. Been back a few times since, primarily ordering the pork katsu or chicken katsu. The meal comes with miso soup, rice, katsu of your choice, potato salad and shredded cabbage salad. The katsu is always melt in your mouth tender and crispy and the sides are fresh and pair very well. My only small complaint is that the wait is usually pretty long, usually between 20 minutes to almost an hour. I highly recommend ordering ahead over the phone before heading over to pick up your food.

This place has basically only katsu dishes. I've delivered from here multiple times now and I'll say the service is super quick and the packaging is efficient. I will say their miso soup (which comes with all the main katsu orders) is super mild and borderline bland but that was the only nitpick I had with this place.I loveeeeee cheese katsu and I think this place did it well. We also got the chicken katsu and it was yummy. The chicken was super tender and so was the thin pork in the cheese katsu. The breading was perfect -- not too thick and scratchy and not too oily. The spam katsu was a bit weird -- it was a thick slice of spam in the katsu breading. I think if the spam was pre grilled or if it was thinner it would've been better

The katsu here is amazing indeed. Take-out only restaurant (pick-up or delivery). I ordered online for take-out around noon on a Friday and it was ready in ~20 mins. I got the pork loin katsu which came with rice, shredded cabbage, miso soup, katsu sauce, wasabi, and sauce for the cabbage. Miso soup was piping hot which was great! Katsu sauce was cold/refrigerated and I think I'd prefer if it were room temperature. The pork loin katsu itself was phenomenal. The batter was one of the flakiest I've had - super light with soft crunch. At first I thought 5 pieces of katsu wouldn't be enough but it ended up being very filling. The katsu was so good that I felt like it didn't even need the katsu sauce. Rice had sticky texture which I personally love. Would definitely come back in the future! I want to try the cheese katsu next time :)

Never tried a specialty katsu place, so I knew I had to try it. This restaurant is inside a food hall that looks like it used to be a banquet hall. They serves different a of katsus.Signature amazing katsu (3/5): This one caught be eye because I've never seen a katsu dish like this. It's pork filled with cheese and spices. Howeve I thought it was just too much different flavors that it hid the flavors of the katsu. In addition I thought the cheeses and pepper took took space from the pork in the katsu. This comes with rice and potato salad as well.

Amazing katsu is called "amazing" for a reason!It's not your typical restaurant, it's a pickup spot but it is definitely worth the grab and go! I got the cheese katsu and it was so delicious. If you're a cheese lover like me, it has the right amount of cheese, pork, and breading. For $13 it's a really good deal and the portions are big! Definitely check it out if you're in Santa Clara!

We were craving Katsu and came across.We tried their new item, Chicken Soboro Don. I know..we were craving katsu and picked something that isn't that, lol! I would give this dish a (3/5). Chicken was sadly dry but still had flavor which went well with the rice, lettuce and ginger. We do wish that we chose the katsu to try so we will be coming back! This dish came with miso soup.Price: $15 including tax.Staff: friendly and patient with us given we wanted to literally try everything but we were trying to be good about sharing a dish to start, haha!Location: it's right next to Simbongsa in the corner of the Event Center of the plaza. The area was clean and busy!

This is such a great find! Always love smiling faces--Super nice lady taking my order. This is a take out only place. They are utilizing the kitchen that is vacant for an event hall rented space.The portion is decent. You get a side of soup and a scoop of rice with the katsu. Orders were made fresh. I appreciated the texture and the meat was throughly cooked! I would definitely recommend! Thanks Yelpers for this great find!

Going into this restaurant was actually not a restaurant because they only do to go. We walked in and it was a huge empty space (probably used a venue) with two businesses at the register. One of them was amazing Katsu! Since it was me and 2 friends and we wanted to try a variety, we got three different options. We all had differing opinions but we all liked different ones which was perfect! My personal favorite was the signature amazing katsu because it was stuffed with so much stuff and was still crispy as a katsu should be. The regular chicken katsu is really thick which is good! These cheese katsu was great as well with great cheese pulls. This place is a bit pricey for the amount they give but it is definitely worth a try because the quality is great!

AMAZING FOR CHEESE LOVERS!!!! The food is just WOW, devoured within 1 minute. The cheese is so cheesy, super melty even after 5 mins of sitting there, and the best thing is there is A LOT OF FRIKING CHEESE. One bite into it and you get the most crispy outside and the cheese just oozes out. The pork gives it very good flavor and I would definitely come back for more.This place is located inside an event center though, so it was a bit interesting to find. There is no seating and to-go only. ORDER AHEAD, because I made the mistake not to, and waited 30 minutes because they get a lot of orders over call/online and they make every order as fresh as possible, so it comes out pipping hot!!!
