That’s $70 for our meal. Prepared fresh, absolutely delicious and paired with extremely gracious hospitality. Crazy good ambience, making you feel right at home. Just fun times, good food and fantastic company to surround yourself with. Please do yourself a favour and dine here. The 4.9 ratings is the truest representation. To the owners and people who work here: Change absolutely nothing. You’re nailing your job! ❤️

I recently visited Donkatsu restaurant, and I must say, their Combo Chicken Katsu is absolutely the best! The chicken is perfectly crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and the accompanying sauces and sides complement the dish wonderfully. The service was efficient, and the staff were friendly and attentive, which made the dining experience even more enjoyable. If you’re a fan of katsu or just looking to try something delicious, I highly recommend this place. I’ll definitely be coming back for more!

Amazing service and food. Went here with my friend, the staff is very friendly and polite. We were served fairly quick after ordering, and the food was amazing. I’ve gone here before and I will definitely still frequently visit as the food portion sizes are a lot and a great deal. Me and my friend shared a Carbo Curry Katsu and Corn Cheese. It was delicious and was filling, even with sharing a meal. The staff know that the portions are a great size so don’t mind asking for a takeout box lol.

Came in here with my family and we were instantly treated with great hospitality. The Food is AMAZING. The Katsu is very tasty with tons of flavour and the servings are massive. They come back to refill your rice/cabbage/and corn! I will definitely would recommend coming here. It’s super tasty for an insane value :)

I visited because I was craving proper Korean food for the first time in a while while living in Canada, and my wife cried after her first bite because it was so delicious. Its better than the Gyeongyang-style pork cutlet Ive had in Korea. The price was a little expensive, but not at all considering the quantity and taste. Ill go again. May you prosper..!

Best fried chicken cutlet in Toronto. Be warned, the serving sizes are huge. Could easily split between two people. Vegetarian options: Basically none other than the fried cheese. Parking: Closest free parking is across the street, 2 min walk. Wheelchair accessibility: Not wheelchair accessible at all. Stairs to get in, walkway too narrow to fit, no space behind seating. With such a small space its unavoidable.

Its been a while since I had it delivered. I felt it every time, the pork cutlet was still delicious, but it was rice. I think real rice needs improvement. I understand scooping it up with a scoop, but the rice is all crushed up, and for environmental reasons, I understand serving it on one side of the tray unless you order more, but its not coated, so it all sticks together. Rice is rice

Ive ordered number of times, always amazed at the amount of protein they provide. However, why is the rice always stale? Todays takeout order had 3 Katsu sets, but all 3 had like really hard rice. Feels like they were either leftover from yesterday or frozen rice being reheated. Please improve on this, Im still hoping to return but this stale rice is so difficult to eat.

October 22, 2024

Brown pork cutlet is a big restaurant in Jumba, even in Korea, but its really delicious here. It was the best quality pork cutlet I had in Toronto. You can control the amount of pork cutlet, the thickness of the meat, and the spiciness of the sauce, so eating it spicy makes it less spicy and more delicious. Its enough to fill an adult mans stomach, and those who dont have much food may be able to leave half of it. The service is really friendly for a Korean restaurant.

★★★★★
October 22, 2024

This place was amazing! The cheese filled Katsu was an overflow of cheese! It was really a cheese bomb. If youre looking for something simple and traditional, the original brown katsu is always the way to go! Excellent customer service, and billingual staff. !

I really loved Brown Tonkatsu (menu) here. It tasted exactly the tonkatsu I used to eat back in Korea when I was a kid, a Korean-ized tonkatsu I may say (which is a little different from the typical Japanese tonkatsu). It reminded me of my childhood memory. If you miss that tonkatsu, you should definitely try this!

Went with my friends for dinner. For the price the portions are HUGE I thought we were getting a second meal for free. Kenny, our server, was so kind and attentive. Amazing service. The atmosphere was great too. It is a smaller space but people are close enough to hear us spill our tea and deepest darkest secrets as this dinner was actually a low stakes intervention in disguise for one of our troubled friends. Hes completely free from his issues now. Thanks, Brown Donkatsu!

I usually dont write reviews, but today I was surprised by the kindness of the two glasses-wearing male employees who served at the counter, so I thought about it before leaving a review. Ive lived in Canada for a really long time, but its been a really, really long time since Ive had a meal out where I didnt mind tipping. As I was leaving my meal with my partner, I kept praising the service. Of course, the food was very delicious I guess there is a reason why the rating is close to 5.0 even though there are close to 2000 reviews. I really enjoyed it!

My wife and I find the food quality and quantity more satisfying than other restaurants that specialize in katsu. Weve been to this location a few times, and each time the staff were friendly and catering. They also checked in with the diners if more side dishes were needed. The restaurant can become packed easily during dinner hours, but the staff do their best to contact you when tables become available. Always a great dining experience!

This is a nice and cozy Korean restaurant with less than 10 tables. I went there twice in the past 3 weeks, both times were around 6:20 pm. Quite a few items were deep fried but not greasy. We had chicken, pork and shrimp. Combo portions were big, especially for deep fried stuff, should easily feed 1- 1.5 person. There was a good selection of appetizers too. If you drive, parking could be challenging, I parked 70+ meters on the side street. Parking: I parked on Connaught past Fargo, about 3 minutes walk to Yonge Street.

Ordered a Katsudon, it was delicious as expected of the Brown Donkatsu chain. The owner was cool, friendly and accommodating vibes. Their ramen selection is more limited than their Markham counterpart, but if youre just here for Katsu that wont be an issue.

I came here with my family and ordered cheese bomb donkatsu. It was very delicious and the portion was very big. It was enough for two people to share. The atmosphere is very warm and the staff were very kind and welcoming. Definitely recommend this restaurant!

I liked that the pork cutlet sauce was moderately spicy! It was great because there was a lot of food for the price! The atmosphere of the restaurant was clean and comfortable, so I was able to have a pleasant meal. I want to visit again next time!

It is good value of money the cutlets are big, the sauce is good as well! A suggestion if for the stream rice if it can be drier it will be perfect!

I stumbled into this place called Brown Donkatsu in North York, and let me tell you, its not your typical Katsu joint. I went balls to the wall and ordered their Snow Cheese Katsu and Carbonara Curry Katsu. Now, Ive choked down my share of crappy food court slop, but this joint? Its like they took comfort food and jacked it up on steroids. The Snow Cheese Katsu is a beast. Picture this: a slab of pork, beaten thin and fried to a golden crisp, then drowned in melted cheese. Its like someone got a schnitzel drunk, hooked up with a grilled cheese, and this was their love child. The panko coating gives it this kickass crunch that reminds you of when food actually had some bite to it, you know? But the real mind-blower? The Carbonara Curry Katsu. Yeah, you heard that right. They took two completely different cuisines and mashed em together like it was no big deal. The katsu is your standard crispy pork cutlet, but then they smother it in this carbonara-curry sauce hybrid. Its creamy, its savory, its got a little heat - it shouldnt work, but damn if it doesnt. Youve got the Italian creaminess from the carbonara mixing with the Indian spices from the curry, all on top of a Japanese-style cutlet. Its like a UN meeting in your mouth, only way more productive. Both dishes come with this tangy slaw on the side. Its not just some afterthought - it actually does its job of cutting through all that richness. Its like they actually give a crap about the whole meal experience. What a concept. Look, Im not saying this place will solve world hunger or anything, but in a sea of bland chain restaurants and fusion spots that couldnt fuse their way out of a paper bag, Brown Donkatsu is a rare find. Its the kind of spot that reminds you why you bother dragging your ass out to eat in the first place. So if youre in North York and youre sick to death of the same old crap, give Brown Donkatsu a shot.

spontaneous visit after my sons hockey game.. we are a family that loves trying new food, and coming to Brown Donkatsu was perfect experience and tasted our taste buds. its not a big place nice a cozy, we where greeted by the onwer Greg, who helped us newbies with the menu and whats we should try.. Greg and his staff are very personable which was very refreshing in the resturant industry. now what we had.... fried shrimp yummy Takoyaki ( octopus fired balls) Nagasaki Ramen ( seafood spicy level one ) soooo much flavors ttekkochi ( spicy Rice CAke ) too spicy for us to finishes ***Cheese Stick Katsu with carnberries for dipping Combo with two sauces pork loin ( level 2 spicey ) very similar to Schnitzel with a twist. everything is made in house and fresh everything was great, we love the Cheese sticks the most because of the favour and freshness of the cheese, my son loved the cheese pull. until next visit

I came here because I really wanted to eat pork cutlet. I was surprised by the size and then by the taste! The pork cutlet is very crispy and the sauce is so delicious! The two of us came and ordered the basics and cheese sticks, and I think we did really well! Be sure to try both flavors! Next time, let s try a different menu!
