    Mochi
    Brandon D.

    Amazing snowballs and mochis. Remember cash only!!!!!!!! ...................... ...........BD ...........

    Jtown spicy katsu
    Leslie F.

    Order online before you go! There were about 15-20 people there when I arrived. The outside window pulls double duty with snow cones ordered on site and anything from the kitchen ordered o line or in person. Sandos did not disappoint! The katsu was crispy outside and still wonderfully juicy. The pickles were delicious. The very short operating hours make it tough to catch them, but worth planning to stop by. My niece had the BLT and said she would definitely be back for more!

    A cute new establishment inside the iconic Osaka Ya. I've been excited to try it! And wow, is the hype real. You can order online or on a screen inside the establishment, but the orders are provided out the window facing the street. There is a slight discount if you use cash, but card and tap are accepted. The only decor elements is the bright pink, purple, and teal pastels in their marketing materials, but it is super cute nonetheless. There are exactly three tables outside on the sidewalk with several chairs. The staff seem like they're working hard but there is still a bit of a wait for orders. We ordered the Cluckin Katsu Sando and were thoroughly impressed. The sandwich was so perfectly well balanced in terms of flavors and textures. Honestly, one of the best chicken sandwiches in Sacramento. It you're an aficionado, you must try and let me know your thoughts. The Loco Moco was also incredible. I picked the mushroom sauce over the curry and it was so unctuous and flavorful. Also, an incredible offering. You won't get wonderful service or a particularly cute Instagram photo, but if you're just looking for good food, this is it!

    This place just continues to push out some of the best food in Sacramento. It's such a special place with heart and hearty foods!! I have gotten almost everything on the menu and will 100% rave to everyone about every piece of food sold here. The jsut started doing Scallion Pakecake breakfast burritos and wow bomb.com status. Unreal flavors, umami beyond believe.

    This has been in my bookmarks for a while and I finally had the chance to go try it. I don't live too far from here so it wasn't hard to get to the place. It's in downtown and shares the same kitchen/shop/building as Osaka-Ya. Parking can be in the neighborhoods or surrounding streets. No dedicated parking lot. There are a few spots right in front, but those are usually taken. I ordered online for pick up and was 30 minutes late to pick up (thanks work), but the gentleman assisting me was nice and has great customer service. I did get my food to go. The sandwich itself was nice. I would say above average. Maybe next time I'll try it fresh, but it did lose it's crunchy texture due to my late pick up. I got the Jtown sando and it does come with chili oil, which will pool at the bottom of the paper wrapping if left for too long. I also got the cookie, which was thin, but huge. The edges were crispy while the center was gooey. So good. Overall, good food and great service. I'll try to come back.

    loco mucho hambagu katsu, golden curry: gravy, kraft, fried egg, scallion

    This egg salad sandwich was almost EGG-celent. The texture was amazing! Soft bread, creamy inside. BUT super bland! I wish they would add a little bit of salt or spices to give it some flavor. It tasted like nothing. The furikake added a little saltly flavor, but enough wasn't provided for my taste. We also tried the loco mucho (hambagu katsu, golden curry: gravy, kraft, fried egg, scallion). Honestly the katsu hamburger patty wasn't my favorite. It wasn't even crispy under all the gravy. So I think it would've been the same if it was a regular hamburger patty. It was still pretty tasty though. Service was quick! We got our order in about 15 minutes on a Saturday. We used a QR code to order through their website. Theres no inside seating, just a window. A few tables outside!

    I've been craving sandos for so long so when I found this place, I had to check it out. What I didn't realize was that it shares the same store next to Osaka-Ya, where they sell the shaved ice! While waiting for the sandos, it was easy to just walk into the store next door to buy some onigiri and mochi I ordered a Cluckin Katsu Sandwich and my friend ordered a J-Town Hot Chicken Sando. I wanted to order the Tamago and seasonal fruit sando, but they were sold out by the time I got there. It turned out that the Cluckin Katsu Sandwich was more than enough for me too haha. I ended up saving the other half of the sandwich for dinner. As others have mentioned, the chicken is HUGE and the egg salad is a great complement to the softness of the meat. Bread was soft and the sauce they used was so gooood. I think it's worth the price! Be aware that there isn't a lot of seating outside though so maybe worth ordering to-go.

    Finally found a scallion pancakes here in Sac! This is My absolute fave. Miss this when i was in taiwan and now got to taste their breakfast scallion pancakes. They have a variety of choices you wanted to put. They only have pick up every friday since it sells fast! Its a huge servings so you will really get full or you can share it as well. Will come back and try their other menus.

    Takoyaki Fries
    Sara W.

    I'm so glad I stopped by! They are serving out of a window attached to Osaka-ya. You can order off of your phone and then they have a few tables out there where you can wait. I got their Takoyaki Fries ($14) and J-Town Hot Chicken sandwich ($16). The fries were loaded with flavor and were a huge portion! The Chicken sandwich was also huge! They give you a huge piece of chicken and the flavors were so good. The chicken was nice a juicy and can easily be split between two people. I will say, I think they use a hot chili oil to make it a little spicy and so it is pretty messy. I felt like it was a little too much oil for me but totally personal preference. I would definitely still get it again even with all the oil. They're open Wednesday - Saturday 11am-2pm or until they sell out. I would definitely recommend stopping by and I want to go back to try more of their sandwiches.

    Cluckin Katsu
    Rachelle P.

    I love Japanese Sandos so when I saw this shop I knew we had to check it out! We ordered the Kinokodon, Spam Musu Mi, Cluckin Katsu and Much-O-Fish. Hubby's don he shared with baby was incredibly flavorful and mouthwatering! So much so that I may have taken more than 1 bite lol! The popular fish sandwich is only available on select days, so he was excited to try it! My eldest didn't like the katsu, so we swapped sandos and she ended up loving my spam! I thought the katsu had a decent flavor and the chicken was nice and tender. Mecha Mucho is conveniently located inside Osaka Ya, next to Osaka Shaved Ice! Come early, place your order at the window and grab a seat before the line fills up! Nice staff! We'll be back to try more next time we're in Downtown Sac! 4/5 stars! SYOY! :-) *Song Credit: Secret Sauce by Jeff Kaale

    Yakisoba pan, egg sando and katsudon
    Jenica E.

    Great place to get a quick bite! We ordered the egg sandwiches, yakisoba pan which was stuffed with noodles, egg, and spam goodness! We also shared the katsudon which was flavorful. I also love that it's connected to a little convenience store that sells other Japanese goodies. Also fresh mochi!!! I definitely want to come back and try more of the mochi and get some shaved ice next to it.

    J town hot chicken sando
    Brian G.

    I wanted to try this place for awhile but their hours are pretty limited. Made it out on a Saturday morning. This spot is located inside Osaka Ya. J town hot chicken sando: A- I've only had sandos a couple times before and they were lacking in filling. This one however is PACKED with freshly fried up chicken katsu that is super tender, plus a good amount of veggies and sauce. It's wrapped tightly so it holds together pretty decently.

    Ordered at the window. Service was excellent. Poor tall guy had to bend down each time to take everyone's orders. I didn't order ahead, but the wait was reasonable. A couple of bistro tables out front to eat... pretty chill. Temperatures not too hot yet, so it was enjoyable outside. We ordered the Cluckin' Katsu and Tamago (Egg) sandwiches. Tamago was my fave, especially with the crunchy "pot furi" topping served separately to stay crunchy. I imagine the corners of the bread were a little chewy from being refrigerated. I was hoping they assembled it fresh. Minus a star for that. 3.75 star. Cluckin' Katsu sandwich taste was ok. The bulldog sauce must not be for me. Not bad, but not eye popping. Chicken portion was good, extended beyond the edges of the bread. Nice. Overall, worth a try!

TT stood out because it was fresh, tasty, and a good portion size. Some places make small pieces or use way too much rice. Not here. We started with the Special Scallops appetizer. Lots of fresh scallops in a little bit of chili oil with micro greens. The scallops were real scallops and not the small, chewy bay scallops. The texture was great and the scallops were fresh and the dab of chili oil brought out that yummy flavor. We ordered 4 rolls and were stuffed. We all thought they were a great value because of the size, the fish to rice ratio, sauce that accented the fish instead of replacing the flavors, and just a good value for the price. I really enjoyed them all but the soccer named CR7 and Very Messi rolls where my favorites. East Sac and Sunshine are refreshing with a touch of lemon. Of the two, I enjoyed East Sac more. The restaurant was packed even for a Saturday lunch. Good thing we made reservations. They are on the AMEX Resy app and it is definitely worth making the reservation if you get the credit. They don't take same-day reservations. They have a patio, dining room, and sushi bar. We all loved it and it was approved by my two high school daughters. We'll be heading back.

We couldn't get a table so we sat at the sushi bar, and there was plenty of room there. Plus watching all of the chefs put together the Omakase offerings was really cool. We opted for the Japanese cauliflower curried soup, the black cod special, the king Roll, the watermelon and mint salad and the shrimp and corn dumpling. Every single dish was FIRE!!! The flavors were delicate and nuanced and perfectly balanced. Even the frisée lettuce on the watermelon and mint salad was a flavor explosion. We found ourselves drinking the sauce out of the bowl from the shrimp and corn dumpling. The croutons in the curried cauliflower soup were crispy on the outside and buttery on the inside. The black cod was the texture of a scallop and the squash purée set it off just right. The king Roll was a marvel to see and absolutely a delight to eat. I loved that little hint of lemon that accented the crab and lobster flavors. 1000% recommend this restaurant to anyone who enjoys really damn good food. Craziest part of the meal was the cost, it was incredibly reasonably priced, not overpriced, like most restaurants of this caliber. We will definitely be back. Thank you Kru for making my special occasion even more special!

But today wasn't busy at all. We got in and sat at the bar. The AC was on blast which was lovely because outside was 100 degrees. There was 2 other tables, so it wasn't busy at all. It was happy hour which gave us $5 drafts and $2 Kumamoto oysters (6 piece minimum). The dry aged fish was on the specials board as well. Ordered: 6 oysters, dry aged tuna and dry aged salmon nigiri, Rainbow roll and Shima Aji Sashimi. Got the dry aged pieces first. Passed the smell test, no fishy smell at all. Bites were clean and tender. The salmon even had a bit of smokiness on it. Would definitely order again. Oysters and rainbow roll were also really good, solid all around. Asked the chef for a recommendation and he advised to try the Shima Aji (another board special). This go around we got this as sashimi. Another fresh and clean fish. Mild flavor with slight sweetness. We ordered pretty much everything through the chefs behind the bar and the service was solid. Needless to say this is a place I would come back to.
