Served with rice and side salad. $11.95
Katana-Ya, San Francisco CA
The pork katsu was pretty tasty (on the verge of being over-fried perhaps), but I thought there would be more curry. The restaurant is really shady though.
Topped with Kewpie mayo, bonito flakes, scallions. $6.95
Katana-Ya, San Francisco CA
I actually really liked these. They tasted wonderful and had a pleasant aroma. Unfortunately, this restaurant is dishonest so I can’t support Katanaya.
Spicy salmon, tuna, butter fish, eel, seaweed. $13.95
Katana-Ya, San Francisco CA
This roll was ok, but I will never return to this place. They are deceptive and untrustworthy. Boo!
Spicy tuna and cucumber roll topped with more chili sauce, sesame and green onions. $6.50
Katana-Ya, San Francisco
Why are “spicy” rolls never really that spicy at Japanese restaurants? This roll was more sweet than spicy to me. I think it had some good flavors but lacked the spice. C’mon guys, gimme some heat!
Ramen in a soy broth with 4 pieces of BBQ pork, bamboo shoots, seaweed, and scallions. $11
Katana-Ya, San Francisco
This char siu ramen is on the 7×7 Big Eat List 2011, but frankly, I wasn’t impressed. Perhaps I’m just not a ramen expert, but the I didn’t find anything exceptional about it. My favorite part was the bamboo shoots and the pork was pretty tender, but I think the soup was too rich for my taste.
