    Chicken katsu
    Michelle N.

    Pretty good Korean katsu place in the neighborhood. Feels like a good casual neighborhood spot to grab a meal since it is quite cozy inside with inviting decor. The katsu we tried, chicken and pork, were crispy and tender, but not as juicy as other katsu we've had before. Still good though. I wasn't a fan of the shrimp katsu since it was over-breaded and very little shrimp. On previous occasions we went, we thought the dipping sauce portion was really skimpy, so I hope that will change. I also would've preferred the salad dressing to be more tart to refresh my palate in between bites of katsu because it was more like a sweet citrus dressing rather than a vinaigrette. Overall, pretty good katsu spot in the neighborhood that also offers curry, noodles, and rice cakes.

    Parking can be hit or miss depending on time of arrival but if you park far enough, You'll find parking in this plan. Very very clean inside. Staffs were very attentive. Love the self ordering system. Chicken katsu was amazing, much better than the pork katsu which I felt was way too dry. The sides were really small

    Topokki Katsu.
    Dat N.

    We came around lunchtime on a weekend. It wasn't too busy, so we were seated quickly. We ordered the Topokki Katsu and a Chicken Katsu with a mini udon. The katsu for both were crispy, but a bit on the drier side. The topokki was okay; serviceable, but not noteworthy. The sides complimented the heaviness of the katsu quite well. The portions are large, here! It's not far fetched to have a little bit left over for later.

    I'm on a mission: try every katsu place in the Bay Area, so I had to hit up Yumee Katsu (pronounced You-Mee). This is a Korean/Japanese fusion spot; they serve a shoyu flavored miso, kimchi, radish, and cabbage + lemon dressing to accompany your dish. FOOD: Chicken Curry Katsu (4/5) - I honestly expected more curry, given that it's a curry katsu. It feels like the curry is just there for presentation because there wasn't much. The chicken was nicely battered and crisped. It was $23, on the pricier end for curry katsu yet still enjoyable. I'm assuming there is an up charge for the side dishes. Yumee Donkatsu (5/5) - So good! Personally I'm not big on pork katsu, but the meat was juicy and lightly fried. By itself it was decent but the katsu sauce and wasabi enhanced every bite. Honestly I didn't even need rice for this because it filled me up. SERVICE: The waitresses are nice and quick. They give you a menu, but you order using an iPad. You pay at the counter when you're done. I have no complaints about this place other than the location they chose. This plaza is infamous for its parking....It's out of the way for me but if I'm in the area I'd definitely come back to this place!

    Good!

    Great food! The pork katsu was crispy and juicy, and the curry was delicious. Everything was fresh and delicious. Would definitely come back!

    Great food, great service, and the restaurant has ample seating! Would recommend if you're in the area.

    New katsu spot opened up in the Ranch 99 plaza on Hostetter, taking over Vons Chickens. The interior looks pretty much the same, except maybe with more tables. Came here for an early dinner. The restaurant already had a few patrons dining and there was a wait by the time we left. Since it's in a plaza, there's plenty of parking but it gets extremely busy since there are other popular stores here. There's an iPad connected to the table where you can order your food. They have katsu dishes of all kinds. We ordered the katsu with ramen and dry noodles. The portions are huge, which makes sense because the price point is a bit higher for a meal around here (around $18-25 w/o tax and tip) but it's comparable to other katsu places around. You get side dishes with your dish. The katsu was well fried and not too oily. The ramen was pretty standard and so were the dry noodles. Service was good, as the waiters were very attentive and brought us water often. Food came out quickly as well. Would come back here!

    Yumee Katsu is a new restaurant that opened up and took the space of where Von's Chicken used to be in this mall. The parking is horrendous on the weekends. If you are lucky to find a spot, you will see the restaurant by Paris Baguette and Venus Cafe. The interior is nicely decorated and modern. The service is friendly and attentive. Donkatsu Spicy Chewy Noodle - first off, the noodles are cold like a salad. Don't get me wrong, it was a flavorful, hint of spiciness, and thick chewy noodles. The katsu was fried to a golden brown. Assorted Katsu - pork katsu, shrimp katsu, and cheese katsu. A good entree if you are undecided on what to get or just want to try a variety of fried choices. Support your local business.

    First time visiting this place for dinner, and it was a good experience. The environment is nice, and it was very easy to find parking. I ordered the shrimp with curry--the presentation was definitely impressive, and the shrimp was perfectly crispy. My friend ordered the fish, and it tasted really good as well. Because of that positive experience, I decided to revisit for lunch on a Monday. I was surprised to find that no one else was there. I ordered the fish katsu, but unfortunately, I was very disappointed. The fish had a strange smell and tasted a bit like hand soap. I mentioned this to the waitress, just so the kitchen could be aware and pay attention to the issue. Since the food quality seems to be pretty inconsistent between visits, I'm giving it 3 stars for now.

    I definitely prefer Japanese Katsu, but Yumee is a solid choice if I wanted something more unique. I tried three dishes here: Rose Topokki Katsu, Cheese Katsu, and Donkatsu Spicy Noodles. Rose Topokki was the star and everything else was so-so. The rose topokki was delicious and I liked the crunchy flakes. The Cheese Katsu was okay because I prefer more meat than cheese ratio. I did not like the DonKatsu Spicy Noodles because the noodles were cold and tasted like kimchi.. Overall, the katsu here is tender and fried well. I would only get the rose topokki next time. After trying three dishes, I defintely got flavor fatigue from the katsu and was tired of eating fried food. I also liked the little banchan and the soups!

    Chicken katsu udon and one with rice and rose rice cake

    New place finally opened next to Paris Baguette and it's so GOOD. You order from an iPad and the katsu itself is so crispy and BIG. It comes with miso soup, kimchi, radish, and salad. The Rose Rice cake is also delicious and nice and creamy. The servers are nice and fast and place of course is really clean. I do wish they gave more rice but that's just cause I eat too much.

    Assorted katsu + chicken katsu curry
    Iris H.

    Waited around 30 mins before getting seated. Quite a lot of people joining the waitlist during the dinner hour rush. We got the assorted katsu(pork, shrimp and cheese) and also the chicken katsu curry. I find the chicken katsu to be the least dry and juicer than most. Cheese katsu has a nice cheese pull. I like how there are the pickled radish and kimchi on the sides, along with salad. Presentation is a plus too. -**: fried shrimp katsu is not crispy. Outer layer is too thin, so texture is almost mushy(?). Also the price for the set is normal, but the add-on side dishes are out of place. Ex: The mini udon is $5.99 and probably the size of a small fist size. It's equivalent of 2 mouthful udons. Don't think I'll get it again.

    A new katsu place opened so I knew I had to try it. Since it was late dinner and they were about to close, I got take out. Rose Toppoki Katsu (4/5): Remember this is take-out! This dish comes with rose toppoki (so great if you can't handle spicy) and a katsu. The katsu tasted a bit dry and it didn't blend well with the bed crumbs. The toppoki was good, but couldn't taste much of the rose flavor. I would like to dine in at this place next time.

    Five amazing stars for Blue Pagoda and Chef Tetsuya!…read more ありがとう。おいしいです。 16 course Omakase which we have not had in a long time pre COVID in SF. Bae and I have not gone out alone for a long time and this night cap was long over due. I don't know where to begin. The ambiance and the staff are super kind and service on par. Paired our course with an Asahi glass of ice-cold beer which melted all our worries away. The smoked amberjack left notes of applewood. Melts me inside out.

    When I parked in the lot and got a glimpse of the area, I was wondering could this be the wrong…read morearea because this mall is janky but I ended up having a superb omakase dinner at Blue Pagoda. The inside is nicely decorated as if you're in an outdoor Japanese garden. They have a large sake cellar right in front. They do three meal services on the weekends and we choose the middle one at 6pm I think. The entire restaurant is served the same menu whether a table or at the sushi bar, but the bar costs a little more since you're watching the chefs. They change the menu monthly I believe. It's finely crafted so you taste and experience the meal in a specific way. See my pics for the menu. We paired the meal with a flight of sake each. Each dish was decadent and a joy. From watching the chef prepare to the food tasting great. And it's really fun! I was so anxious to taste the next dish each time. After your sweet dishes are complete, you may order more ala carte. Of course we did! The service was all around tip top. The chef, the host, the waiter, and the helper. Fast, helpful, and friendly. Ames of you want to be sorted by guild dust you need to sit at the bar. Haha It's a little pricey all-in. The omakase meal alone is expensive but then add in the sake flights and ala carte sashimi, plus tax and tip, and I promise it'll add up. However, it was quite a great experience which I will someday do again.

    Food: Ume Bowl with Ochazuke Set Price: $26 + $4.5…read moreOverall: I came here with my boyfriend to celebrate our anniversary back in April! It is in the general area with Cere Tea and Koi Palace. We arrived around 6PM and were seated immediately. We came for the seafood don and both got the UME with an addition of the ochazuke set. For $26 + 4.5 for the set, I think it's really worth the price and you get a good amount of fresh fish. Each bite felt like I was transported to Japan and eating a Kaisendon. Although we had to wait for a bit for the dashi soup to arrive , it was a delicious end to our meal. So comforting and hearty.

Came with al dente Udon noodles, fatty beef slices, soft poached egg, seaweed and thinly sliced fried burdock root, and yuzu skin strips. The fried burdock root tasted like mushroom but with a bitter aftertaste. The yuzu added a lemon rind citrus flavor. Mixing the poached egg in the broth made it slightly creamy. The slices of fatty beef was a bit chewy. Overall, good broth but the dish itself as a whole was just ok. The Mentaiko Udon tasted like pasta with creamy Alfredo sauce flavored with shrimp. The calamari had a thin batter and fried crispy. A bit too fishy for me. Both dishes were not worth the price charging. Food came out pretty quickly. Staff had a more professional than warm approach.

It's a QR code to order your meal and the service was very quick. Our water cup was also kept full. It's very bright and welcoming inside and comfortable seating throughout. Onto the food, my friend and I ate with our eyes, lol. The Kaisen box was so delicious and the assortment of fish and crab tasted fresh. The star of the show was the Love Tray. The rolls came out first and each one was delectable. Good portion of rice to fish ratio. The nigiri and the sashimi came next and the beautiful range of fish was too pretty to eat! We finished off with the tempura ice cream which is pre-cut for you. The meal was absolutely amazing and I'll be back!

    I had Yoshi Sushi saved for some time, so I was excited to visit here this past June. Walking in,…read morethe decor was nice, but the booth/table that we were sat at didn't seem permanently affixed in its place, which was odd. Regarding the menu, which was accessible via QR code, we noticed that you cannot order more than 1 order of nigiri and there was no option for hot tea. I mean, seriously, what kind of sushi place doesn't serve hot tea? When I went to the restroom to wash my hands, the floors were ever so slightly slippery, which was off-putting. When our food arrived, the sushi rice was room temperature and everything had very americanized flavors. The udon was both too sweet and too salty, while the tempura batter was under salted (and so was most of everything else). We ordered edamame that never arrived, and they refunded us after we managed to flag someone to come over. Unfortunately because of the QR code online ordering, the servers (if you could call them that) did not pay much attention to us, not even to refill water. We asked about their happy hour after 9pm, which boasted 10% off food, but was not automatically applied online and had to be manually added when we went to pay. Yoshi Sushi was absolutely not worth what we were charged, and we didn't bother taking leftovers because of the subpar quality, which is a rare stance for me.

I do see myself coming back to try some of their other curious bites and more specifically for that sparkling drink.
