They show that they sell Overice the do not. So if you are coming here for that, you'll be disappointed. But the Katsu was decent. We had both the pork and chicken deluxe meals and we were satisfied.

My friends kept telling me about this place and I've always had it bookmarked but we never went. Finally decided to check it out on our first night in town and I was able to make reservations...

A little overhyped for my taste but maybe I ordered the wrong thing. It's easy to make a reservation on their website and we were quickly seated on a weekday for dinner. Kurobota Pork Loin Katsu...

I still think about this meal! The tonkatsu is so delicious and for being fried, doesn't leave you feeling heavy after the meal. It comes with rice, cabbage salad, and a couple of sides. I think...
