Katsuya Yorkdale - North York

The chicken katsu was crispy and crunchy with the sauce on the side. I prefer it that way instead of being drenched in the sauce. I was pleasantly surprised by the presentation of the meal, and the portion size was decent. The only drawback I would say was that they were out of chicken karaage, and the menu is complicated since certain items are available at some locations. I would suggest creating a menu for your location for the items you serve. Why mix other location items in there and confuse your customers.

We ordered for delivery and we got the karage chicken wings and there was no indication that it was spicy and we even requested that the spice be mild at most but they were unbearable. Way too spicy. It was inedible. Such an utter waste of money. The takoyaki was not very good either.

I had high hopes for this place after the positive reviews. I went in August 2023. The food was fine. I didn’t have high expectations for service and it was fine too. But what grossed me out was the large number of flies in the establishment. We sat near the window and at one point there were 7 flies parked there and more flying around, and they kept going around our food. This just really killed my appetite. I don’t think I have ever gone to a place with that many flies.

We have been to many Katsuya but this was worst experience dirty table that is like months old stains which will stick to your skin and if you change the table they will be unhappy that we didn't ask before changing but they will not be sorry for dirty table or clean the new table (that was same sticky dirt but cleaner than first one) food is okay we enjoy katsuya staff deserves 0 star because we said we don't want pork in our orders even in sauces. She brings pork in our both orders (in sauces) and when we said we don't want pork because of allergy from the pork and the staff Jihee's response was ok It will take another 20 mins I will change it. She could be at least sorry for feeding us something makes us sick but no. Worst experience and please checked your table well before you get that dirt from table on your skin!!!

This place is AWESOME!!! The food was great, service friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere was casual but comfy! ABSOLUTELY recommended!!! My Fiancee and I got the japanese katsu and the gold and silver katsu and they were both so good! the honey fries were also a huge standout. we will definitely start coming here regularly after this meal!
