This is a place in Kita-no-4-jyo 5-chome, Atsubetsu/Takino Park Street in Kiyota-ku. It's best to check the exact location on the map on Tabelog as usual. Sapporo is experiencing a cold wave with temperatures dropping to minus 10 degrees Celsius even during the day. Feeling like having hot noodles, I noticed the sign of Katsuya and decided to have Katsudon instead. I visited this restaurant this time. I parked my car in the front parking lot, entered the restaurant, and sat at the available counter seat. I quickly ordered the Katsudon and waited for it to be served. It arrived in about 3-4 minutes, with fewer shiso leaves than before. I checked the thickness of the tonkatsu, which was as expected. I then tasted the tonkatsu, which was surprisingly tender with a sweet and salty sauce-infused crust. I also tried the rice in the bowl, which had absorbed the sauce nicely. This time, there was no miso soup, which made me feel a bit lonely. Next time, I would like to try the "tonjiru set meal" which comes with a hearty miso soup.

On a certain weekday, during lunchtime, I visited Katsuya, which was quite popular due to a recent campaign they were running at their Kiyota store. The parking lot seemed to have enough space for parking. The interior of the restaurant was relatively spacious, with an L-shaped counter and table seating. The background music was light and reminiscent of a supermarket. I decided to order the "Katsudon Take" (759 yen) and, at the recommendation of the waitress, also got the "Tonjiru Small" (154 yen). Taking the first bite... The pork cutlet seemed to be deep-fried after ordering. The meat was thick but leaned towards being a bit tough, with almost no fatty parts. The sauce used was quite standard, giving a somewhat subtle impression. I noticed that the egg on top was unevenly distributed, which may have affected the overall balance. The ingredients included firm onions and flavorful green onions. Moving on to the tonjiru... The miso soup seemed to have a hint of koji. The ingredients included leeks, radish, carrots, onions, konjac, and pork. I confirmed the thickness of the pork cutlet once again. However, personally, I felt that the presence of the egg could have been more pronounced. Oh, I should compare this to the Katsudon at Seicomart next time! Thank you for the meal.

This time, I visited the restaurant for lunch before my discount coupon expired, which I had used for takeout before. The restaurant is located in Kitano 4-jo 5-chome, along the Atsubetsu-Takino Park Street in Kiyota-ku. I parked my car in the front parking lot and entered the restaurant. I sat at an available counter seat, looked at the menu, and ordered the "Katsudon" with less rice. It arrived in about 5-6 minutes, and the portion of katsu was a bit smaller due to less rice. The tonkatsu was of decent thickness with a little fat. It was surprisingly tender and had a sweet and salty taste. The rice, being less in quantity, absorbed the broth and became a bit moist. I finished the meal after enjoying the pickled radish on the table. I only had water to drink this time, but I would like to try the "Small Pork Soup" next time for a refreshing drink.

I visited the restaurant right after it opened. The breakfast was a bit heavy... I made a mistake choosing the shredded pork cutlet... The breading became soggy and it was disappointing... Even the cabbage side dish was soggy... I guess cutlets need to be crispy... I ordered extra shrimp, but it didn't come with tartar sauce... Did they forget it? Or is it an option? The miso soup was delicious!

Katsuya is offering a special lunch called "Adult Lunch" for a limited time. I, a child at heart, really want to try it (laughs). I happened to be near Katsuya Sapporo Kiyota store at lunchtime, so I decided to stop by! The limited-time adult-oriented child's lunch "Adult Lunch" costs 759 yen (tax included) and is not limited to adults (laughs). It was ready in just under 10 minutes. Wow, I love this kind of presentation! Now, let's dig in! The meal includes omurice curry, chicken katsu, shrimp fry, and a fried red wiener. The chicken katsu is generously topped with tartar sauce. Katsuya's curry is a bit spicy for me, but the creamy egg makes it milder. The red wiener might be better without the breading. The chicken katsu is quite filling! The shrimp fry has a crispy coating and is delicious. It's a satisfying adult lunch. Thank you for the delicious meal! I hope it becomes a regular menu item, not just a limited-time offer (laughs).

Before attending a Consadole night game on a weekday, I stopped by this Katsuya restaurant, which is believed to be the closest to the Sapporo Dome. The highlight was the "Adult's Children's Lunch," also known as the "Adult's Lunch," which is currently a hot topic online. It was amazing. All the other customers who arrived later also ordered the Adult's Lunch (laughs).

Since I was going to Sapporo anyway, I decided to have a meal there as well. This place I visited recently opened in March. I had the Pork Cutlet Set Meal for 869 yen. I prefer set meals over rice bowls, so I always choose the Pork Cutlet Set Meal. It's cheap, good quality, and consistently delicious. They served me hot tea at the beginning, which was a nice touch. Despite being inexpensive, the service was also good. I appreciate that they open early in the morning. Overall, it was a satisfying meal.

I always wonder how the nationwide "Katsuya" restaurants feel about seeing their name prominently displayed everywhere. Today, I had lunch at this restaurant ( ´∀｀ ). Just like other branches, this place has a spacious parking lot, which is expected from a large chain. The interior is also spacious and easy to use, making it convenient for customers. I couldn't resist ordering the "Spicy Chicken Cutlet Bowl" (649 yen including tax) after seeing a big poster on the wall. The open kitchen allows you to see the chefs cooking seriously right in front of you, which made me appreciate their cooking and posture. The Spicy Chicken Cutlet Bowl arrived soon, with a large cutlet covered in a bright red sauce. It looked so appetizing! I picked up my chopsticks and took a bite. The crispy and spicy cutlet was delicious, and the rice complemented it perfectly. The chopped green onions sprinkled on top added even more flavor. As I ate, I started to sweat from the spiciness, but I enjoyed every bite. The heat, thickness, and spiciness of the dish made it truly satisfying. I finished the meal and it was delicious. Thank you for the meal!

My husband, who has completely fallen in love with katsu, wanted to go eat, which is unusual. So today we went to the Hirao location. It's still new, right? Since it's Sunday, I wonder if there will be a lot of families due to the location? We sat at a table and carefully looked at the menu, and the staff who served us seemed a bit nervous and new. Today we ordered the pork cutlet set and the pork fillet cutlet set. The set meals come with miso soup! When the dishes arrived, I was surprised again by how much cabbage there was! I was worried if we could finish it all. But wait, once we ate half, it disappeared in no time. The pork cutlet was tender and delicious, I devoured it. However, the pork fillet cutlet had too much batter and felt hard. As expected, the pork cutlet was delicious. For less than 1000 yen, the taste was amazing. Thank you for the meal.

I love katsudon. "Katsuya" primarily targets male customers and is usually located near train stations. Their boldness in terms of volume, price, and taste has attracted not only men but also families and female customers. I once attended a franchisee orientation for Katsuya's expansion into Hokkaido and was impressed by their automated fryer system. This system ensures consistent quality in their products, resulting in a katsudon that surpasses what other restaurants can offer. The meat has a natural texture and the sauce ties the dish together perfectly. The combination of crispy, juicy, and tender elements at this price point is truly impressive. However, the miso soup could use some improvement in terms of content and flavor.

In March 2022, a new branch of Katsuya opened in my neighborhood. I visited during lunchtime and it was very crowded. I ordered their famous Katsudon. It was served in less than 10 minutes, even though I ordered the smallest size, it was quite filling. The sauce was very sweet and light, covering the rice entirely. Adding the shichimi spice on the table gave a nice kick. The pork cutlet had almost no fat, which was great. The breading was crispy and not greasy, so I didn't feel heavy after eating.

I've been curious about when the Katsuya restaurant with the sign has been opening for a while, and it finally opened on the 4th! I went to eat there right away and tried the "Shrimp and Pork Cutlet Set" (869 yen). The pork cutlet is 80g and about 1cm thick. It doesn't taste too much like pork, but it is crispy and the meat is tender. The shrimp fry comes with 2 pieces, which is nice. The hearty miso soup is also a nice touch. I wish there was more tartar sauce though. My companion had the "Pork Cutlet Set" (759 yen), which comes with a 120g pork cutlet that is about 1.5cm thick. My companion said it was delicious. Next time, I want to try the fried chicken! Thank you, Katsuya restaurant in Kiyota!

The other day, I failed with the grated pork cutlet set meal, so I went for the classic pork cutlet set meal for revenge. The crispy texture is definitely good.

Pork cutlet bowl (bamboo) 690 yen

It's a location in Kita-no-4-jyo-5-chome, Chuo-ku, along the Atsubetsu and Takkino Park Street, but for the exact location, as always, please check the map on Tabelog. I went to this restaurant for takeout after a long time, picking up dinner for my companion. I arrived at the restaurant, parked my car in the front parking lot, and entered the shop. I looked at the menu inside and ordered the "Shrimp, Pork, and Menchi Katsu Bento" which includes a variety of fried items. I paid, received a number tag, and waited outside. After about 7-8 minutes, my number was called, and I picked up my order and headed straight home. Now, let's eat. I first pour tartar sauce over the shrimp fry, and sauce over the pork and menchi katsu before eating. The shrimp fry had thin shrimp meat and lacked the flavor of shrimp. The pork katsu had thick breading and thin meat. Lastly, the menchi katsu had a thinner breading and a strong flavor of menchi. I also enjoyed the shredded cabbage with sauce and pickled radish as a palate cleanser. Despite being about half the price of a bento from a Sapporo-based tonkatsu chain, I can't help but feel that I would prefer the Ebi Hire Bento from Tamafuji next time.

Katsu Curry Ume 650 yen for takeout in July 2022. I was craving katsu and ordered this dish to go for lunch and dinner. The portion was too big for one person, so it was perfect for two meals. The curry had a slightly bitter taste which added to its adult flavor. The katsu was moderately thick and came with shredded cabbage, which was a nice touch. I later found out that it contained 1317 calories, definitely a heavy meal! The price was cheap but the calorie count was high. Thank you for the meal!

Hello everyone, I'm in a bit of a dilemma (¬_¬) A new tonkatsu restaurant opened right next to the sports gym today, so I think I'll have tonkatsu and beer for dinner. Let's go to "Katsuya Sapporo Kiyota Store"! The pork cutlet bento is only 540 yen for the grand opening. It comes with a little cabbage underneath the cutlet, rice, and pickled radish on the side. I have some fried rice at home, so I'll enjoy it with some takeout conveyor belt sushi. Oh, the meat is surprisingly tender and delicious! Next time, I'll try the katsudon after my gym workout (＾ν＾) Thank you for the meal!

This place is located in Kita-no-4-jyo-5-chome, along Atsubetsu-Takino Park Street in Kiyota-ku. If you want to know the exact location, as always, please check the map on Tabelog. I heard that a new "Katsuya" has opened in Kiyota-ku, so I was curious and decided to visit the shop for takeout this time. When I arrived at the shop, there was a line of cars, so I waited in line for the parking lot. After about 4-5 minutes, I parked my car and entered the shop. I went to the register and ordered Katsu Curry and Katsu Don, then received a number tag and waited for my order. It was really crowded, so my number was called in about 10 minutes, and I received my order before heading back home. First, I tried the Katsu Curry. The rice, curry sauce, tonkatsu, and shredded cabbage were in separate containers. I heated them in the microwave and started eating. The curry sauce was spicy but not too hot, similar to a medium-spicy store-bought curry. Next, I tried the main dish, the tonkatsu, which was made with pork loin and tasted decent. This time, I tried the Katsu Curry for a reasonable price as it was the grand opening, but next time, I would like to try the "Katsu Don" in the store.
