Guru Katsu - Mountain View

Delicious authentic catsu, generous portions and very reasonable prices! the rosu katsu is the best I had in the bay area and the katsu sauce is for dying. they close at 9 o'clock.

The curry was very good, with just a hint of spiciness. I preferred the pork over the chicken, but overall, the quality of the food was great for the price. The restaurant had a lovely sweet aroma from the Katsu.

Absolutely exceptional Japanese curry! I highly recommend trying the classic katsu with either rice or spaghetti, but I'd suggest skipping the mozzarella-filled loin, as the cheese doesn’t add much besides extra calories. If you’re a fan of Japanese curry, you won't be let down. The manager (who is also the owner) was very attentive to us and even brought extra pickles for my friend. Highly recommended!

Sometimes I crave tonkatsu, which is delicious fried pork. However, it's difficult to find a good tonkatsu place in the Bay Area. This restaurant is great for enjoying pork dishes! The presentation of the food is beautiful, although the place wasn’t very crowded when I visited. The staff were friendly and very helpful when I had questions about the menu. I went there for lunch, but I'm looking forward to returning in the evening next time!

I was excited to find out there was a restaurant specialized in katsu near my new apartment, so I went with high hopes. The restaurant looks neat and modern, with a black wall full of icons and words related to the katsu world. I was excited and ordered a katsudon and a katsucurry. The food was below our expectations of what a place specializing in katsu would serve. If this was an average Japanese restaurant with lower prices, I'd find it suitable. The issue with my katsudon was too many onions and too little egg, and super hard katsu. The meat was thick, which is great, but only if it's been smothered, but it hadnt, it was just really hard to bite it off. The curry also had katsu, cut a bit thinner, but still too hard (the meat just wasnt worked well). Additionnaly, the curry sauce didnt taste very special or different from a regular packed curry. In conclusion, while the place looks hip and there is a good option of menu items, the katsu, the protagonist, wasnt good. It was edible, but not enjoyable.
