I was on my way home when I realized I'd fully missed lunch and was absolutely starving. Luckily I saw this place and decided to pull over. The waiter and waitress who were serving were super awesome, very attentive and gave good recommendations. The King Katsu Cutlet came out fast and was absolutely massive and had large portions of rice, coleslaw slaw, and macaroni salad on top of the little sides and bowl of miso soup that were served right as I sat down. Honestly a really good price for everything I got. I definitely want to come back soon. read more

Wow, the King Katsu entrée is HUGE! It's easily enough for 2-3 meals. The pork was tender and juicy with a perfectly crispy breading, served with generous sides of coleslaw and mac salad. The service was friendly, and our food came out quickly. My friends and I enjoyed a delicious meal and chatted for over three hours! A great spot to meet up with friends, enjoy good food, and catch up! read more

King Katsu Land - Original King Katsu with curry sauce on the side - Asian Fusion Near Me - Newark, California

First time trying this place and decided to do a pick up order Ordered the King Katsu which was ready for me when I got there. I'll go over each item and rate. Miso soup- 3.5 stars. Not bad, just had seaweed and green onions, no tofu. Not salty and a light flavor. Cole slaw salad- 4 stars. Good size serving. Not sure how to describe the taste. Maybe a bit of apple/pear flavoring Macaroni- 2 stars. Small portion but not the best macaroni I've had. Katsu cutlet - 5 stars. Huge pork cutlet. Size was one that could be shared with 2 people. I liked the thin, crunchiness of it. Spicy tonkatsu sauce- 3 stars. So I have to agree with other yelp review that their sauce isn't that great. I've had better. Has a ketchup taste to it. I did like the kick of spiciness but wasn't the best. Price - 5 stars. For $19.95. I feel that's a fair price Service- 4 stars. Though I didn't sit and take a table, the lady who greeted me and got my order was nice. I deducted 1 star because there was no Utensils inside! Since I was traveling, I had to go buy Utensils at Safeway so I can actually eat this on the go. Would I go back. Yes. Would do a sit down and if I was to do a pickup, I'd ask for utensils to be put in. read more

We came here on a Saturday evening when the crowds barely came in. Fortunately, we were able to snag a table as a party of two. The restaurant was fairly crowded and there were only 2 to 3 tables left after that if you wanted to sit down and eat, then you would be waiting for quite a bit as it seems. The environment was not only crowded, but very loud, which I'm not sure why I'm so surprised of, but it wasn't exactly my cup of tea. That is something I know the restaurant cannot fully control though, but they do serve alcohol so that was a factor to consider. We ordered King Katsu and Chicken Katsu with cheese corn. Everything was a lot sweeter than I had anticipated granted this is a Korean style Katsu restaurant so I should have anticipated on the sweetness. Everything except the Katsu itself and the rice were not sweet, which wasn't my biggest preference but if you have a sweet tooth and this might be your cup of tea. What's stood out to me was the fact that the curry was not only sweet, but it tasted like tomato sauce, almost so it was interesting to try a more acidic version of curry. The mac & cheese and coleslaw did not help with the sweetness of curry as they were both just as sweet and creamy. This is just a personal preference though as I'm someone who has a more savory palate. The cheese corn was absolutely delicious but at this point, I was getting tired of the creamy and sweetness from my chicken Katsu. All of the portions were ginormous and we had to put everything in to-go boxes. read more

King Katsu Land - Chicken Katsu - Asian Fusion Near Me - Newark, California

King Katsu has been the new craze in the Newark/Fremont are and it's been going viral on TikTok for having huge portions so of course I had to try them. I love katsu and for me it's been hard to find a place that does it perfect. I've been here twice already and every time it's been packed so I have opted to get my food to go. I have tried the katsu chicken kid's meal (with curry), the portion for the kid's meal is HUGE!! It's actually perfect for me as a regular chicken katsu would probably be way too much food. The chicken katsu is fried to perfection while the still being juicy and not too oily. It tasted like the chicken katsu I know and love. The curry went great with the chicken katsu, normally I would opt for a katsu sauce but this was better. The katsu came with a few sides that include steamed rice, macaroni salad, cabbage salad and pickled veggies. The macaroni salad is very good and not too heavy. The cabbage salad was the star of the sides, the cabbage was shredded so fine and the miso dressing was so delicious. I could eat that alone!! I definitely will be back as this will be my new katsu spot. read more

King Katsu Land - First time here - Asian Fusion Near Me - Newark, California

Had them once through doordash and was thoroughly impressed so I came in to try it in person; even better! My friend and I shared the Chicken Katsu and Tteokbokki. They also start you off with some miso soup and pickles. It's quite a lot of food and we honestly could have done without the tteokbokki because of the portion. The chicken katsu was juicy and sooo crispy. It also came with two pretty big pieces so it's super shareable. We got the curry sauce hot and it's so so good and actually spicy! Has like a hint of acidity almost like hot sauce. I would personally swap out the mac salad with more rice though. The tteokbokki was very saucy and heavy in the gochujang; not too sweet which I appreciate. Again, a nice kick! Wish there was a bit more rice cakes. The Katsu itself was pretty flavorless so the sauce definitely carries. The place looks pretty casual but very clean. They have a wall of people who have attempted their king katsu challenge. Open decently late. Service was really nice and attentive. I'd be back! Overall: 4.4/5 read more

I really loved visiting King Katsu Land for my first time. The portion size is huge! I honestly didn't think that the portion was that big but it is. You get about 2 portions. Your leftovers can definitely be a lunch for tomorrow. Service was amazing and super friendly. They bring out your food on a cart since the plates are so big. The food quality is great. The meat was juicy and the outside was crispy. The slaw and macaroni was alright but the sauce and meat is what makes the dish delicious. read more

I stopped by after work to grab something to take home. I opted for the kids' meal. That was plenty of food. It's the perfect size if you're not too hungry. After I placed my order, the cashier said it would take about 10 min. Which is fine with me, fresh is worth waiting for. The restaurant is roomy and bright. Be sure to check out the ice cream freezer if you want something sweet. I saw that they have 2 types of katsu sauce (reg & spicy) I asked if I can have a little of both, which wasn't a problem. So I get my food and bring it out to my car. Knowing that the katsu is fried, I wanted to make sure that it doesn't get soggy on the way home. So I opened up and took the lid off the chicken and set it aside. I get home and am excited to try out the meal. Chicken stayed crisp, because I removed the lid . It was piping hot when I first got it. It came with plenty of rice, a shredded cabbage salad (dressing was yummy), miso soup, mac salad, pickles and sweet daikon. Although the cabbage salad was good, it had a bit too much dressing (next time I'll ask for either it on the side or less of it). The chicken was still warm and crisp. I tried the regular sauce and thought it was good. The spicy is good, but too spicy for me. I'll definitely be back! read more

My husband loves katsu so we are always on the lookout for new places, since good katsu is scant in the Bay. His favorite is the thick Japanese style tonkatsu and this is the more common Korean style one but the crispy fried fillets still hit the spot! Rating breakdown: 2/2 Stars for Taste -- Of course we ordered the King's combo so we could try a little bit of everything. The katsu was our favorite and you could smother it with their tangy sauce. Careful, their spicy sauce contains ethnic levels of spice -- it's on par with Shin ramyeon. The fish katsu is not bad, it reminds me of McDonald's filet-o-fish. We would give the hamburger steak a skip, it's a bit bland. My favorite was the cheese katsu -- they be real generous with the cheese. The cheese corn is also crazy cheesy and buttery, definitely worth the splurge. Just don't forget your lactase. The meals also come with miso (like the kind that comes from the soup dispensers in Asia), pickled radish/kimchi, mac salad, cabbage salad, and rice. 1/1 Stars for Value -- The King's Combo is $26 and it's enough to share between two people if you're not super hungry. Or order it for yourself and bring your leftovers home. Otherwise, expect to spend about $25pp with tax and tip. 1/1 Stars for Customer Service -- We've come at opening time twice on the weekend and beat the rush. The servers are super friendly and efficient. There are clean high chairs for the kiddos. Bonus star because it's a kid friendly place and we would definitely visit again when we are craving fried goodies. read more

Small place, with a few tables and vents still exist of what looks like an old kbbq restaurant. Not sure if venting still works. Served with water and some pickled veggies and kimchi. Service was a bit lacking where we had to call over the waiter or wave them down multiple times. First time at a Korean katsu place, overall the batter felt heavier and slightly more greasy because of it. 3.8/5 - Cheese Katsu - Wanted to try this as I never had a cheese katsu. Definitely tastes like a Korean corn dog if you ever have one. A block of cheese inside a crispy outer batter and meat. Lacking seasoning overall just tasted like a blob of cheese with meat. Careful spicy sauce is quite spicy compared to the normal sauce which is no spice and on the sweeter side. Sides review no score. Coleslaw uses a sesame dressing which is better than plain mayo. Mac salad is only carrots and macaroni which only tasted sweet no tang or other veggies in it read more

The portions here are HUGE! Each plate could easily feed two! This place is relatively new and I enjoyed the king katsu. I ordered a side curry and a had the regular katsu sauce. If you like Japanese curry, order the curry but I actually enjoyed their katsu sauce which was tomato based with a nice sourness to it. They serve you pickles and a miso soup in the beginning as you sit down which is nice touch. Honestly I can't say anything negative about this place. It's a great go-to spot which you need a hearty meal for an affordable price. No notes. read more

King Katsu Land - King Katsu - Asian Fusion Near Me - Newark, California

Here we go, another Katsu spot... but they say they're the King!? Well they did not disappoint, greeted, seated with a menu to read it. Ordered the King Katsu, Chicken and Ebi to round it all out. All was cooked well and had the right crunch to it. I feel like most Katsu is good, have you ever really had a not so good Katsu? Hopefully not! I do feel the sauce is da boss and that can be the biggest factor of flavor. I have had some not so good sauce in my time. There are 2 sauces here, spicy and regular. Both are good with a slight tang, although a bit on the thinner side. The cabbage slaw has that good ginger miso Japa dressing and the Mac salad falls a bit short on the flavor train. Overall a great spot to get your Katsu craving on! Large portions, good pricing, friendly staff and good eats. We will be back! read more

Tldr super value giant katsu Its hard to tell in the picture but the pork katsu is giant. As big as the average person's face! It wasn't amazing quality but its really good for the price and it was nice and thin so the meat was cooked nicely and consistently. The fish was surprisingly good too, flaky and not too fishy. I would definitely go back. We also ordered cold soba noodles and they were mid. The noodles were thicker and not very chewy but it did make it easier to eat lol. read more

Great place for casual dining with your friends. It is kid friendly. First time and probably won't be the last time I visit this establishment. The staff members are all so friendly! My plus 1 had the Tteobokki Chicken Katsu. The sauce was rich, slightly sweet, and very flavorful. Tasty standard tteobokki! I had to try the Fish Katsu that came with Mac salad, shredded salad with a delicious sesame seed dressing, white rice, and a side of miso soup. I'm not usually a Mac salad fan because most Mac salads are made slightly sweeter for my palate. This Mac salad was well balanced of creamy and sweet. The fish was fried to perfection! The fried batter was perfect and remained on the fish until the last bite. Some Fish and chips in other joints tend to fall apart real quick. The tartar sauce was a bit too sweet, but that's ok. I like my fish with plenty of lemon, anyways! I, also, really appreciate how the Fish Katsu was presented with the small wire rack to ensure crispiness of the fish! Excellent idea! For dessert, they have a little freezer fridge with variety choice of ice cream bars/cones. read more

We ordered the King Katsu with normal sauce and the Chicken Katsu with curry. The katsu is AMAZING AND CRISPY. I'd come back just for how fresh and crispy the katsu is. However, I did not like the sauces and the miso soup was definitely sitting in a metal pot for too long because there was a metallic taste. There was something off about the katsu sauce and the curry tasted like Goldman curry ): Service is great and ambiance is perfect for friends and family. read more

King Katsu Land - King Katsu - Asian Fusion Near Me - Newark, California

King Katsu Land is the real deal. Came in for a casual lunch. What I had: - Number 1 king katsu (with choice of spicy sauce) Food impressions: Portion wise, wowowo the portion size is pretty generous. I would say that I can eat alot and for me this is a solid 2 lunches worth. The katsu itself is solid, no complaints. Not overly thin, nor overly thick cuts. Solid crunch. Pork quality tastes fine. Now the sides. The mac salad is what you'd expect- solid. But the cabbage salad is what actually stood out to me lol. AT most katsu spots the cabbage salad is basically an afterthought- few bites and you're done. Here, the dressing they put on it has this hint of orange/citrus that makes the salad genuinely easy to finish (surprising I know). The katsu sauce is solid. I opted for the spicy option and it definitely has a kick (my spice tolerance is a solid "medium" at Asian restaurants). Every bite I'd dunk it in the sauce and it built my spice up real quick. I ended up taking the sauce to go (obviously) but mixed it with my wife's regular sauce and the combo was perfect. Spice aside, the flavor was great. Lowkey like an Asian gravy- sweet/savory/spicy. Ambiance/Seating/Parking/Service: Service was really good and parking is ample. Easy in, easy out. This is definitely a casual lunch or dinner spot. Rating: Easy 5 stars! TLDR: King Katsu Land nails it on portion size, katsu quality, and surprisingly great sides. The cabbage salad dressing and the sauce alone are worth the visit. Would def come back for katsu :-) ---How I Rate on Yelp:--- (5 stars): Exceptional!! -- food, service, and atmosphere all outstanding. Worth going out of your way. (4 stars): Great! -- very good experience overall, minor flaws but nothing major. (3 stars): Good -- decent, acceptable, but there's room for clear improvement. (2 stars): Poor -- disappointing experience, multiple issues (food, service, or setting). (1 star): Terrible -- very bad experience, would not return or recommend. read more

Wow! Folks were not kidding about the portion sizes here. One King Katsu pork cutlet is more than enough for two people to share. The katsu itself was bigger than my face. I had a chance to try out both the curry sauce as well as the spicy sauce, and slightly preferred the spicy sauce. The sauce will make your mouth tingly, but is not overwhelming and has a good amount of sweetness to it as well. The curry sauce is thick and clings on well to the craggy exterior of the pork cutlet. The cutlet itself is pounded super thin, yet is not overcooked, nor dry. I really like the sweet and tangy pickles that are included. The pickles help cut through the the oilness of the katsu -- which is not even that oily. In addition to the katsu, I also had a chance to try out their corn cheese. As a to-go order, it's obviously not as good as enjoying it on a sizzling hot-plate in store, but I still really enjoyed the sweetness of the dish and the generous amounts of oozy mozzarella cheese melted on top. One portion is large enough for a group of four to enjoy. If you have a big appetite and are looking for an absolute steal of a meal that will leave you with a bunch of leftovers, I would highly recommend ordering a King Katsu from King Katsu Land. read more

My spouse said he really liked King Katsu so I tried it with him. Ironically I didn't get the katsu for myself because I actually don't like katsu all that much. I did try a few bites of his pork cutlet and thought it was fried quite nicely and went well with the curry sauce. I actually got the cold soba and quite liked it. It was very cold and full of flavor. The soba noodles were al dente (a little too hard for me but probably normal for most people). I would come back! read more

Gives off Korean and Japanese fusion vibes. As soon as we sat down they brought out banchan and miso soup. Servers were quick and attentive. Overall it was a nice and filling meal. King Katsu ($19.95 + $2.95 side curry) - Yes the pork cutlet is very thin! The katsu sauce is pretty spicy but tolerable. The salads that come with the dish have a sweetness to it that helps cut the spiciness. The curry sauce could be better. Fish Katsu ($20.95) - Nice and crispy fish. I liked the fish better than the thin katsu. But why was the tartar sauce sweet? Not my preference. read more

Appropriately named King Katsu as such bc the servings are seriously king sized! A kids meal would be ample serving for most adults. If you order the "regular" size, it's enough for two. My teen who can usually eat a couple entrees, tapped out! There is also accompanying shredded cabbage salad and a mac salad as well as rice. The rice is not proportionate to the regular entree, but plenty of sides or you can order more rice. The katsu sauce is not the Japanese kind. It's the brown Korean katsu sauce. I've had Korean Katsu sauce before but this one in particular has a bit of spice to it. We ordered a half and half of KFC which we really didnt need. Each of those entrees we ordered were already plenty. Service is prompt and attentive. read more

Came here with a friend. We each ordered the King's Combo which came with pork or chicken katsu, fish katsu, and hamburger steak. I ordered the pork katsu and my friend ordered the chicken katsu. We both chose the Regular (versus Spicy). The portion was huge! The fish katsu was good - nice, moist, flaky on the inside, and nice, light breading on the outside. The hamburger steak was small in comparison to the other katsus, but it was good with the rice and sauce. Reminded me of a loco moco! The pork katsu was big! The outside breading was nice and light like the fish katsu. The pork wasn't dry in the inside, but was okay. I tried my friend's chicken katsu and it was super moist inside. I think I would prefer the chicken next time. The King's Combo also came with macaroni salad and a cabbage salad. The macaroni salad was good. The cabbage salad was yummy with the shredded cabbage and the dressing ! read more

Came in for lunch and it was busy! But we were able to snag a table with no wait. They brought out soup, banchan and water right away after seating us. The service was friendly and they were great with questions. The portions here are huge! We shared and still over ordered but we don't regret it! Everything was delicious. We got the King's Combo which was great to try a bit of everything. Then added on a side of the shrimp tempura and curry sauce. All the katsu and fried dishes were perfectly fried and still very moist and tender inside. The crunch when you bite in is so satisfying. Loved both the katsu sauce and the curry sauce, we got both and I don't think I'd be able to pick just one. The price for the portion and quality here is amazing. It's better for me that this place is further away from me or I'd end up here at least once a week! read more

Came here on a friend's recommendation. The portions are HUGE. The Signature King Katsu was enormous, with a super crispy, crunchy coating. The fried chicken came in smaller pieces but somehow didn't feel greasy at all. For our family of three, we ordered the King Katsu, spicy cold noodles, teokbokki and corn cheese. Was it too much food? Absolutely. Did we know that while ordering? Yep, but the staff didn't shame us (we did that ourselves). But when you have choice anxiety, "Just order it and justify it with the mantra we'll have lunch tomorrow" Also agree with the other Yelp reviewers--the staff was amazing and really added to the experience. Go hungry and enjoy. We definitely did...then maybe save some time for the treadmill later. Highly recommend! read more

I've been wanting to try King Katsu Land for a while now, so I am happy that they finally opened one near me. We came here on a Thursday evening. They were not busy anymore since it was close to their closing time; we got seated pretty quickly. The staff was nice and welcoming, and the service was fast. Inside was clean and spacious. I ordered the King Katsu, Tteok-bo-ki, and Sikhye. The King Katsu was big. Honestly, two to four people can eat this since it was humongous. We were pretty amazed at how big and generous the serving was. The katsu was crispy, and the breading-to-meat ratio was spot on. The katsu had good flavor, but it was dry. I enjoyed the tteok-bo-ki. The rice cakes were chewy, and the sauce had the right amount of sweetness and heat. Lastly, it was my first time drinking sikhye. It was sweet and a great drink to pair with the katsu and tteok-bo-ki. Overall, I enjoyed our visit to King Katsu Land. The portion was generous, and the prices were reasonable. I will come back here again. read more

Love the HUGE katsu portion sizes at this place! I ordered the king katsu, and I severely underestimated how big it would be. The katsu itself was nice and crispy, and I appreciated how they didn't skimp on the vegetable salad and macaroni salad that came with it. The sauce that comes with the katsu is more on the sweet side rather than savory, but you can get curry sauce instead if you want for an additional $2. The staff were all very welcoming and friendly, and the servers brought us miso soup and some banchan before our order came out. There is also plenty of parking in the plaza that this restaurant is located in. I thought that the prices were very reasonable considering the amount of food that we were given. Would love to come back to try more of their dishes in the near future! read more

Service: very bright and warm staff! They are very helpful and welcoming. Enjoyed a great time there thanks to them. Food: very crispy and the breading is not too thick. Definitely recommend to try their King's combo if you're here for the first time because you'll be able to try all kinds of katsu they offer. The Korean fired chicken also comes with a good portion even it's a small size. Overall it tastes really good but a bit pity that the dressings are quite sweet (salad, honey garlic, macaroni) and the spicy sauce for katsu is not spicy curry. Ambiance: clean and bright!

All hail to the king of katsu! Be prepared to feast like a royalty! Squeezed into a corner of a moderately sized shopping center in the fringes of Newark, King Katsu Land is cooking up some monster sized fried pork cutlets with sides of curry, rice, coleslaw and other fried goodies like cheese katsu. Infamously known for its novelty size, the taste and value are certainly other qualities to celebrate. This recent newcomer took over a seldomly visited spot and has definitely drawn the attention of hungry patrons looking to not only satisfy their stomaches but also to allow their eyes to feast on the golden crispy crusted pork patty the size of a giant dinner plate. Based on our experience, they seem to be primed to stay with excellent service, delicious food, and amazing value. We got a take out order with a variety of items and they all hit the spot and satisfied a craving or two. Their menu is quite simple with their katsu being the main attraction with each offering regular and spicy variations as well as the option to add on curry to go with the protein. King katsu - this monstrosity is a wonder to behold. All of its crispy goodness packed in a box comparable to a personal sized pizza box, ready to be cut into and dipped into a hot bowl of their curry. This is by far, a must get here, unless you opt for the super king combo that includes this and a fish katsu and hamburger steak. It comes in pork or chicken (halal). Definitely shareable - I'd gander for about 4 people or 2 really hungry ones. Cheese katsu - gooey, crispy and stretchy. This is a fun one to eat but it sneaks up on you and will certainly stuff you up. Consider sharing so you can save some space for that king katsu, but who am I kidding, you still won't finish in one sitting. Eat it while it's still warm! Curry - creamy and full of umami. Don't sit out on this curry as it'll elevate your katsu experience and give you something else to dunk your rice in! Definitely worth the extra charge. Overall, King Katsu Land will certainly pique your interest with the sheer size of their main dish but will have you coming back because of the effort they put into preparing each dish to provide rich flavors and complex textures in each bite. For those looking for something you likely won't be able to cook or have the desire to make at home, this unique eat will keep you full for at least two meals! Look no further than the King for your katsu cravings! read more

I went to King Katsu Land for the first time and returned less than a week later. The portions are huge, very shareable. Out of the fish, chicken and pork, the chicken is my fave. Don't get me wrong tho, they're all good. I've tried the curry, regular and spicy sauces. My favorite is the spicy. It was spicier than I expected and the heat builds. It also has a slightly sweet flavor to it. Love it. Cheese corn, rice cakes and fried chicken were all good. I'm definitely getting the cheese corn again next time I visit. The servers were nice and checked on us often both times I went. I'm a fan read more

Spacious restaurant in the Balentine Plaza. We ordered the King combo, cold soba, and fried shrimp to share. The king combo had pork, shrimp, burger patty and an egg. For the Korean style katsu, the pork is very very thin. Their wonton beef batter it was coated in is very crunchy, but be prepared to see a thin piece of pork. The burger patty was flavorful but small. And fried fish was crispy. It seems like they make the soba in house? When we originally placed the order, the server needed to go back to the kitchen to see if the soba machine was working? Nonetheless, the noodles were very chewy and perfect for a hot day. read more

My family and I came here shortly after leaving Valleyfair Mall. We recently ate, so we didn't come in very hungry. First of all the place is tucked away in a corner of a strip mall off of Stevenson. There is a good amount of parking. The vibe inside was lively and inviting. Our waiting was great in explaining the menu and all the options. We ordered two king katsu combo, one with pork and the other with chicken. The flavors were very good and the crunch and texture were spot on. Mac salad was the right doneness and not too soft. Cabbage slaw crunchy and well dressed. Corn cheese was ok not the best I've had. Lastly Soba noodle was cold refreshing and chewy. Overall I would I highly recommend this place and come back. My daughters loved it so much they wanted to buy merch and support them! read more

We got the King Katsu and the Cheese Katsu, and wow -- when the King Katsu hit the table, we were shocked at how huge it was. We even said we could've just shared that one dish and been totally satisfied, but ordering only one plate felt a little embarrassing. The katsu was super tender, super crispy, and the sides (mac salad, cabbage salad, and rice) were such a great combo. The Cheese Katsu was tasty but definitely on the heavier side. After a few pieces, it gets pretty rich. I loved that they have frozen drinks! We tried the Sikhye slush (Korean rice punch), and it was delicious -- cold, sweet, and perfect with fried food on a warm day. Service was awesome too. Right after ordering, they brought out miso soup and a trio of pickles: yellow radish, kimchi radish, and pickled cucumber. My only note is that all the pickles were a bit too sweet; a little more acidity would've balanced the meal perfectly. And seriously, the King Katsu set is gigantic. When I packed up my leftovers, it looked like I had an entire second meal. Such a great deal. Highly recommend! I'm definitely coming back to try the frozen lemonade and the fried chicken. read more
