Kanojo - Chicken katsu curry and rice - Japanese Near Me - Madera, California

I have been here a handful of times and feel this is a fair assessment based on all of my visits. The establishment is cozy with limited seating. The mural artwork on the wall is definitely a vibe. Food can be ordered at the counter and all of the service staff I have interacted with have all been pleasant. I have tried their korean corn dogs, which are pretty good, I like that they offer an assortment of ingredients to make your own. I have ordered their prepackaged chicken and sticky rice a couple of times, which is usually pretty good. Although during my recent visit the chicken was good and moist. The sticky rice tasted over-cooked and was crunchy on the bottom. read more

Ordered the teriyaki chicken bowl. It came with rice, chicken, and 2 gyozas. The chicken was very dry. There was lots of sauce on the food but still very dry. I wouldn't recommend. The gyoza was good though. read more

Food was good quality and tasty. Especially liked the bulgogi bowl and cucumber salad. The fries and chicken were good with the right amount of crunch. Wasn't totally sold on the curry flavor but it was pretty good. Desserts looked awesome but we were too full to try them. Portions were good size for the price and appreciated all the sauces alongside the meals. Would stop here again if I was coming through town. read more

I came during there supposed hours and they were close. I travel 30 min to try this place out. I came on a Saturday at 4:40, so disappointing. read more

Food was delicious! Elote style Korean dog has great flavor! We also ordered a teriyaki chicken bowl & a katsu bowl to go. The Oreo croffle was my favorite over the Reese's. But I'm not a big fan of peanut butter. read more

I was lucky to find this place while scrolling for a good lunch place in Madera, and this is one gem you won't want to miss! The sign outside advertises the place as having Korean & Japanese comfort foods. My friends and I visited in on a Tuesday afternoon, and there was only two other people in the dining room. Upon walking in, we were met with kind service in a timely manner, and the worker offered to answer any questions that may arise. They also have Hot-N-Ready meals such a chicken with sticky rice next to the register if you're looking for a quick meal to-go. The main dish that drew me to this restaurant was their chicken katsu sando. I haven't heard of any other places in the area with something like that, and it did not disappoint The toast of the chicken katsu sando is wonderfully crunchy and pairs nicely with the cucumber salad. It also comes with a side of spicy kewpie mayo, but it's definitely drenched in enough of the katsu & teriyaki sauces on its own. If you're just in the mood for a light lunch, I would definitely recommend splitting the sandwich with someone else, as it comes in a pretty big portion. We also tried the Biscoff croffle, a delicate combination of two of the best pastries. They make the croffles fresh in store, so you can expect a warm, cozy treat that exudes Biscoff goodness. Overall, we left this establishment with full bellies (and happy souls!) :) read more

Yelp to the rescue once again! Had thought about checking Kanojo out in a previous trip but didn't make it, a colleague did and liked it. So decided to go for lunch. One word- delicious! I opted to get one of the specials - beef bulgogi ($12.99). The meat was nice and tender. It came with two dumplings and some kimchi all atop rice. It was a great price and portion size was really good. I would definitely go back. read more

Great food even our picky kids liked it! We will be back to try the desserts! Looks like we found a cool mid day date place

Great hidden gem in Madera! I have come here several times now and I have not been disappointed with the quality. I've ordered during their lunch rush and always received my food promptly. I love the prints on the wall and how welcoming the workers are when you arrive. I've had the chicken katsu bowl, curry bowl, and egg sando which were excellent. I don't have much of a sweet tooth but my coworkers enjoy the croffle as they describe it as fluffy and warm. If your coming off the 99 or need a quick bite I recommend this place. read more

Food is good. I'd go back for the Egg Sando; it had a savory taste to it and was unique. They don't skimp on the filling, and the bread was buttery and toasted just right. The spicy mayo sauce complimented the egg very well. Also had the katsu chicken sando, wish there was more sauce in it, but overall, good. It had a decent size piece of chicken in it. The Corn Cheese Fritters were good too if you're into that kind of thing. You could customize the sauce you want drizzled on it; it comes with spicy mayo..I should've added something sweet like sweet chili sauce as well! Small seating area, good for 2-3 people. I took my order to-go. Food came out rather quickly: 15 minutes. Not too bad. Overall if I'm in the area, I'd check them out again just for the egg sando alone! read more

Off the hook, Madera! It is outstanding. I've never eaten food like this. They call them K-dogs. You pick a batter and a filling. They look like corn dogs. If you like district fair food...omg... This is the place for you. I felt like I was in deep fried heaven. I got the one full of mozzarella and it was like a giant cheese stick. The batter/coating is the bomb. I got the original sugar batter. Their spicy mayo is perfect with this. My friend got the elote one. We also ordered their fries and dumplings (goyza). Every single thing was outrageously yummy. I've been looking for food and fries like this for years!!! You've got to try them!! #fatteningfun #DeliciousEats read more

This place is great. My son loves the ramen corn dog. I myself enjoy the sandwich and fries. Love pickles, so the sando always hits the spot. read more

Very tasteful food! Ordered pick up and it was done in a good timing, when we brought it home (5 mins away) everything was fresh and my Katsu chicken still gave a good crunch to it. Didn't get a chance to take photos but will be going back to try other items. Today's order was. Chicken Katsu bowl, chicken Katsu fry's and beef fry's. All with so much flavor. read more

4/20/24 Getting lunch! Chicken Katsu Sando ordered. The worker was Great and said it would be ready in 10 minutes. I went in to get it. Greeted upon entering. Cute little restaurant with nice music playing. Order was ready. Paid for it and the workers were kind. Happy to bag it and hand it over. Lunchtime! Sandwich split. Perfect size to split! My half was Really Delicious & nice change from the normal! Great sauce with the fresh cucumber and everything else in it! Tasty!! Mother said her half was Great too! Great service & Great Chicken Katsu Sando! Highly recommended! read more

I've ate at their restaurant a couple of times now and I must say that their food is stellar! I've had their Katsu Curry Bowls (mostly their pork bowls and most recently their Chicken) and I must say that they are fantastic! The service was rather quick and the ambience of the restaurant was pretty good too! read more

They literally closed the door on us as we were getting down and it was 7:30. I really wanted to give this place a try. Very disappointing. I won't be trying again ‍ no wonder they felt they could close early, no business! read more

Ya'll! Run don't walk to try this place! I don't know how I've gone this long without knowing it was here! Great service and super tasty food! My personal favorite was the Chicken Katsusando :)! Such a delicious meld of flavors! Can't wait to go back! read more

The Elote Style corndog with hot link was very tasty. It is a lot larger than I thought it would be. The sunomono salad was flavorful and the perfect appetizer. I have ordered the teriyaki chicken fries multiple times now; and they are still my favorite. Definitely great for sharing. I can't wait to try more things on the menu. Staff have been super friendly and polite. I have ordered take out from them now; and the food has been delicious still when I got home. The restaurant is clean and organized. read more

Clean Business Good food Very personable people with a smile. We tried the Elote Corndog 1/2 cheese and dog. It was super yummy. The cheese 1/2 seemed even better than the dog part. Chicken Katsu Sandwich is really Good. It will not disappoint and is very filling. The person with the sweet tooth WILL LOVE the Croffles. The Chicken Teriyaki to me needed a some sort of Kick. Missing something but some ppl really like it. Katsu, Croffles, and Corn Dogs are the GO TO read more

The people that work here are always very nice.they have good options for food and are fun and always tasty.

Love Kanojo's. Small place, sort of hard to get a table but they do takeout and have excellent food and drink variety. Would recommend the egg sando or the hot link, hot cheeto corndogs they do. That said, have tried most of the menu and everything is worth it. Rice runs a bit dry if you seal it up and take it with you, and katsu just isn't made for takeout (gets soggy), but nothing a bit of soy/katsu sauce doesn't fix. read more

Overall place is not bad. Their Korean corn dog are not bad for a place in Madera. The popcorn chick was dry however..

Great food! Japanese comfort food is the best way to describe the food here. I ordered corn fritters (amazing!!) waffle fries and ramen noodles corn dog with a hot link instead of hot dog inside. Really makes the different!! Great food and fast service. The staff even shot a video of my food as they gave it to me. This is a must try if you are in the area. I recommend going back to this place. read more

The service was great! Friendly and helpful. Ambiance was fun! Unfortunately the food left a lot to be desired. We ordered the Katsu Chicken bowl and the chicken was incredibly dry and there was barely any sauce. A Tofu Katsu Curry Bowl which had no breading on the tofu, was lacking in salt, and the curry had a texture of sandy gravy (and we love curry normally). We thought the Croffle would be the saving grace... it wasn't :(. It was so tough that we had a hard time cutting through it to share it. We came from out of town and used Yelp to find a restaurant close by and were disappointed in the quality of the food based off previous reviews we were expecting more. read more

A friend suggested we go here for lunch & recommended the Katsu Sandwich. The set-up is fast casual, so order & pay at the counter. Server was pleasant & friendly. My buddy had the pork Katsu; I had the chicken. Seemed like a long wait (15 minutes +)... but my sandwich was excellent, ingredients very evenly distributed & balanced for moisture & crunch. Each table (3 total) has a napkin dispenser, but the napkins are too lightweight to handle the sticky Korean BBQ sauce - wet wipes would be a welcome addition. The 80s pop soundtrack was a bit loud for relaxed dining, but fit the overall theme. read more

Food is amazingly awesome, service was quick and dining is relaxing. Very clean hear and well ventilated.

Last time I was there the chicken was a little to dry and tough like if it was old maybe plus make sure u food is fresh daily I had the teriyaki chicken bowl read more

I did not get a photo of the Korean Corn Dog I had. Because I devoured it so fast. I got it crusted with potato, with half mozzarella and half sausage. It was absolutely delectable. Perfectly crunchy even after I drove it home and there were sauces on it. The service was great, the owners are a delight and the people they hired are great too. The mural behind my photo is very aesthetically pleasing. It's not huge inside but it gets the job done. read more

Discovered this spot through Good Eats Drew. We ordered three meals, cream sodas, and a sweet treat. The kdogs are unique and filling - not to be fooled as a side dish. The croffle was the a perfect dessert and is definitely my new guilty pleasure. To top off our experience, owner was kind enough to gift us with a free cream soda! 10/10 We will are very excited to have this refreshing menu in Madera and will enjoy ourselves exploring it with each visit. read more

Casual dining with pretty small area for eating at the restaurant but all orders we saw while eating there were to go. The menu is small but interesting. Both people working were friendly (and assuming the chef is the owner). He asked how our food was as we were eating. Two of us had the chicken katsu sando and it was really good! Loved the cucumber salad that came in the sando. Chicken teriyaki bowl and katsu chicken bowls were good. Ordered the corn fritters and they were really good. We had a Korean corn dog with original batter and mozzarella inside and it was okay. Fountain drinks are not an option. Wanted to try dessert but we were too full. All in the party were happy with their meal and will be returning. Dinner for 4 was $73 but we brought food home. read more

I invited some friends to enjoy the Teriyaki chicken bowl, but my friend had phobia of cats in restaurants and as she looked around she seen Cats!! I visited last Friday evening the 11th and I asked for extra teriyaki sauce and I couldn't tell if the chicken was dry? On Friday the 13th, my friend ordered the chicken rice bowl and she didn't like the teriyaki chicken bowl because the chicken was too dry and she left it unfinished. The chicken breast must have dried out under heat lamps or on a warm grill, but regardless I'll get my teriyaki chicken at the Panda restaurant because they use chicken thighs! read more

The food is very good. I have enjoyed everything that I have tried. Nice small quiet atmosphere. The customer service is outstanding.

Saw their ad on Instagram and we checked it out because my girls love the chicken and sticky rice! And we live in Madera so Fresno is far for us! Glad we have this option close now! But the trick is that you have to go early for the chicken and sticky rice. After lunch, it will be sold out! The chilly paste it comes with is a bit on the sweet side for me. That's just preference though, but the day I went, they gave me another kind of hot chili paste that I did enjoy very much. Also, the pork belly was amazing delicious too. Chicken katstu is also a must try. read more

My coworkers and I ordered lunch from Konojo on 2/7/2025, and I chose a teriyaki bowl with grilled chicken. Unfortunately, the chicken was dry, hard, and rubbery, making it difficult to eat. The rice was just plain white rice, and the sauce was average at best. Overall, the meal was disappointing and felt like a waste of money. I ultimately had to throw it away, as the chicken was too tough to eat safely. read more
