138 Dundas St W, Toronto, ON M5G 1C3, Canada
Korean style Donkatsu Restaurant
One of the best katsu in Toronto. The portion size is generous and good for two people, or when you are super hungry. The staff is very nice and the place has been recently renovated.
Food: (pork curry katsu) portion was great, very big depending on your hunger. The sauce was good, little spicy like I said and it was perfect. Very kind stuff and attentive. The atmosphere was calm and cozy, the music wasn't that loud letting the customers communicate. Thank you for the experience!
Generous portions. Kind servers. Their signature brown sauce has a sweetness to it which I’m not a fan and made the food not enjoyable. It would be better to have the sauce on the side. Their chicken and pork taste good.
First time visit. The chicken cutlets are sooo good. They give a really big serving. I tried the combo original sauce and cream sauce. The brown sauce is really tasty. Also ordered thw snow cheese ( cutlets topped with mozzarella). We also tried the corn cheese and it was delicious!
Food is good, if you are not too hungry you can share a main with an appetizer. Service could be better, they serve the coke without glasses, no soy sauce for the gyoza, waiter added water into my coke glass because I had to use the water glass for the coke. No one wants to eat drinking coke from the can directly.
HUGE portions. Like reaaaally huge; I literally had to take out half of it. It was tasty, and the serving was great as well, the waitresses were really kind and helpful! The price is really good considering the amount of food you get, plus the water is free
Went for a stroll after work and stumbled upon this resto. The slideshow on the TV screen which can be seen from outside made us hungry! Great advertisement 🤣 Was not expecting the portion of the food would be big, that we had to take out half of it. For me, it can be shared by two person. The value for money to food ratio is valuable and reasonable. Presentation of the food was superb as well! You can choose the level of spiciness how you like it as well. It comes with rice, corn cheese, and coleslaw. Staff were so accommodating and answered all our questions regarding our options, they’re always smiling too! 🫶🏼 Atmosphere was good, small space but cozy. Would be back to try others on the menu. Will list what we got accordingly 1. Fried shrimp 2. Gyoza 3. Cheese bomb katsu 4. Grilled chashu 5. Half and half ( I actually forgot what it is 🤣)
Really great food - all of the meats were correctly tender and juicy with perfectly textured breading. The side items were all pretty decent as well. The portion sizes were quite large, and the prices were quite low. Usually restaurants downtown cost more, but this place was amazing value for what you get. Service and atmosphere were also fine.
Excellent services with amazing food! Cant wait to have another meal there again Food : 5/5
I am the person who just received hamburger steak and cheese chestnut pork cutlet delivery. Not only is the hamburger steak different from the pictures posted on Uber Eats, but did you know that if you burn the food and cleverly place it under the burnt part, you wont be able to see it? Dont play with your food. Its been a while since I received delivery food and I feel dirty.
Amazing value for money with the huge portion sizes. Had the combo chicken katsu with brown and cheese sauce and had a taste of the japanese curry as well. Everything was very good. Would come back again on a day when Im super hungry. One portion easily keeps me fed for more than 2 meals.
Delicious donkatsu and very generous portions! I got the lunch special which was truly great value and tasted delicious. The katsu was cooked perfectly and the sauce was delicious. Highly recommended to anyone in the area!
The only thing a vegan can eat is corn without the cheese but amazingly enough it was still somehow so delicious Vegetarian options: vegetarians can have the corn cheese dish.
I really do love this place and have been numerous times. Today is the first time I ordered to go and when I got home it was pre-cut but seemed to be from various pieces, not from one single one. And the size difference is inexcusable. They do this so you dont see how theyre giving you less (almost half) of what you get if you order in. This alone has made me decide to never go back. Im paying the same so why get less?
I went to Brown Donkatsu today with my friends and babies. The food was amazing as usual, and the server provided excellent service. Thank you for everything
Good quality. The pork tonkatsu was very crunchy and juicy, also the sauce was very good taste. Impressive! Worth for the money!
Meh. Pretty ordinary food in a busy fast place. Fast food-esque. Do not recommend
Boring food
Very attentive service and the food was amazing. Would absolutely go again!
Follow @bredgyeats for more food posts! Combo Katsu - Chicken thigh smashed thin for a tender texture, yet thick enough for a substantial, juicy bite thats contrasted with the light crispiness of the panko crust. Thankfully they also have the option of getting two sauces, a brown sauce thats slightly sweet, acidic and umami thats paired with indulgent, creamy carbonara.
We tried the classic Brown Don Katsu, was yumm, a bit expensive as it was 23$ for one, but enjoyed the food
Initially had low expectations, food was beyond expectation.
Like other reviews, its enough for two people. Toronto s first pork cutlet! I came here to eat alone and had a good meal. (Remaining items can be boxed)
Went on Halloween. The hambak steak tasted spooky. In a good and delicious way.
Delicious! It is super crispy and the brown suace is flavorful. The brown katsu comes with 2 pieces and can be shared.
Really good
Really great value, some of if not the best katsu Ive ever had. Nice service, couldnt ask for more. Cant wait to come back to Toronto to visit again
Very tasty. If you are craving katsu, you should try their food. 10/10 recommend!!!!!
This location has a phenomenal, welcoming staff providing the best service! They serve the most comforting Korean katsu in the area with generous portions. Although their katsus are fried and breaded very well, their brown sauce makes everything taste so much better. Highly recommend!
Well served, great prices and nice atmosphere! I asked for the donburi katsudon (fried pork), amazing!! Great place to have lunch, both by yourself or with friends!
Great place for lunch. Right in the heart of downtown.
The servers were extremely kind to give us a table for four although we were a couple, the food was fresh, crisp, tasty, umami and healthy! Will be back for more! Kid-friendliness: Kids allowed
Food is great, service is fast and proffesional
Good service and big portion of food
The food was amazing
very good service and fast serving.
My friends and I went for a lunch/dinner. We decided to try this place. The food was good. I would say they have a big portion. Most of my friends couldn t finished their meals. Overall, it was a good experience .
First time and it s perfect for me. The deserving was crazy, it s good for 2 people each serving.
We had a delightful experience with the katsu combo that included pork and chicken, and the hot and spicy katsu was quite flavorful. The service was superb.
Absolutely delicious! I got the pork katsu combo, the brown and white sauce were super tasty - I will say the brown sauce was a tad better but both outstanding. Service was quick and polite. As many mentioned the portion sizes are almost comically large, so come hungry!
portions were very big so ensure that you can finish before you start eating! tonkatsu was great curry was great service was great Food
Our waitress, Soyoung, was really helpful and polite. The food was amazing and definitely good bang for buck.
Great food, great service, one of our favourite restaurants
Great food and great service, would recommend
Great food and service! A lot of good, quality food for a decent price. Best Katsu I ve had in Toronto :) Will be back!

Got the curry katsu. cutlet was seasoned well, batter and breading was really good. Great service. The portions are ridiculous value.
Food serving is really big and very good. Very nice staff also.
Had the new brown hamburg and it was filling and loved it! Would go again
Great!
Great service and great food, had new hambak katsu and it was tasty! If you want seasoned meat in your katsu, would recommend :)
Crazy huge portions. Our meal was enough for two. Rare to get 3 Katsu in one curry! Im gunna explode!
Come prepared with an empty stomach. You get delicious food and a lot of it.
Great restaurant
Extremely large portions! We ordered the snowing cheese katsu (savoury and crunchy with melted cheese on top) and the cheese bomb katsu (every bite oozing with cheese, just like the commercials)... Overall a very good experience. Very attentive staff, crowded restaurant but good atmosphere.
Brown Donkatsu serves a well-executed donkatsu. It is crispy, and the pork is tender without being greasy. The sauce complements the dish well, and the portions are generous. A solid choice for donkatsu.
Very nice korean donkatsu. I love the spicy sauce! Very addictive. Highly recommended.
Great portions for a great price
Delicious food! So happy they opened a store Downtown!
This brown tonkatsu restaurant is amazing! The pork cutlet was crispy and tender, with generous portions. The side dishes were great, and the service was friendly. A perfect spot for delicious, authentic tonkatsu!
Far and away the most bang for your buck donkatsu I ve had in Toronto. Massive portions and good flavours, will most definitely be back!
Big servings! Love the cheese bomb katsu. Welcoming staff as well!
Very delicious and good servings
Delicious pork cutlet with crispy meat and rich sauce...

I love it so much I take the Chicken Katsudon ! It s was really good, really testy ! The mix with the sauce and touch of ginger was amazing I will comme back for sure
Food portion is generous and was tasty. Enjoyed overall experience. Will come back!
We ordered the brown donkatsu (pork) and corn cheese as an appetizer. The portion for donkatsu was really good and the spice level (1) was perfect for us. I would recommend spice level (2).
The food and service was really good
Very tasty. 10/10 would recommend.
Lovely place and food taste good
Good portion size, delicious rice
Taste good
Brown Donkatsu offers a delightful experience for fans of Japanese cuisine. Located in a cozy spot, the restaurant specializes in donkatsu, featuring perfectly breaded and fried pork cutlets. The menu boasts a variety of options, including classic tonkatsu and inventive twists with unique sauces. The standout dish is the signature brown sauce donkatsu, which combines a rich, savory flavor with the crispy texture of the pork. The accompanying sides, such as fluffy rice and tangy shredded cabbage, complement the meal beautifully. Service is friendly and attentive, enhancing the overall dining experience. The ambiance is casual yet inviting, making it a great spot for a quick lunch or a relaxed dinner. Overall, Brown Donkatsu is a must-visit for anyone craving authentic and delicious donkatsu in a welcoming setting
They were a delightful combination of crunchy and savory.
Great portions! Personally, I prefer the brown over the white sauce.
Food was great and huge portion but whoever decided to play radio should reconsider otherwise recommend!
Very good!
The katsu was very delicious, big portions!
The donkatsu was crispy, huge portions for the meat but the rice and salad were a bit small. Overall really good!
Really good cheese katsu!
The hambak was exactly what I needed. Pretty heavy but satisfying.
My kiddos love the cheese bomb! Could not have enough Kid-friendliness: Yes, they have high chairs Food : 5/5 |
Its a casual Korean-style pork cutlet spot. I tried their exclusive ham-bak steak cutlet. Its ground pork & chicken seasoned & deep fried. It was very tasty with their spicy sauce over it. Their portions are very generous; pack your appetite.

The portions were huge!! Very flavourful!
We ordered the cheese bomb katsu and curry katsu, and everything was absolutely delicious! The portions were generous, and the level 2 spicy option had just the right amount of heat. The flavors were so authentic, it felt like we were back in Japan. The service was great. We ll definitely be coming back!
It looks good and the portion is generous, but it tastes plain and cheap. Also the dining area is crowded. Food

Amazing food, huge portions and great service. The Hambak Katsu was 25% off as it was a new product and tasted on point.
Very yummy and the atmosphere is nice
Amazing cute restaurant near Dundas square. We had the chicken tteokbokki and the chicken hot n spicy Katsu with the spice level at 1. The food was genuinely one of the best Korean food I have eaten. Tteokbokki was a little chewy, but it was the first time I tried, so idk if it s supposed to be such. Overall experience: 8.5/10
They were so kind,I like the foods and i will come back one day.
My favorite Korean Donkatsu restaurant !
This is my 4th or 5th time and I will definitely come back. Its amazing and friendly staff as always. Thanks!
it is actually so good
We tried the cheese bomb donkatsu and the carbonara hambak steak and it was amazing

Really good food and amazing service
Good Food
Absolutely delicious food with huge servings.
A good experience overall. Meat portions are huge - very filling. The very hot curry was a good spice level for me. Salad is okay if you like creamy dressing. My daughter enjoyed the corn and cheese appetizer.
Just had to share - my little boy and I had an amazing lunch together while waiting for my husband to finish the waterfront marathon! It was bustling with runners and their families, but the staff did a fantastic job keeping everything organized and cheerful. I decided to try the original Donkatsu, and wow, it was one of the best Ive ever had outside of Japan and Korea! The portions were quite generous, and the flavor was just heavenly. My 4-year-old enjoyed it so much that he gobbled up almost half of my dish! To top it off, the staff was incredibly sweet to my little guy. If you love Donkatsu and have kids, you absolutely have to check this place out. Highly recommend! Kid-friendliness: They were so friendly with my little one, always smiling at him, and they even treated him to a complimentary drink!
This place is really good , and really good price as well
Good food, good portion, friendly staff
Very good. Excellent portions.

Great portions. Delicious food not only limited to donkatsu but also other various menus.
Good food and service!
Tonkatsu is crispy and delicious! The portion is so large that I think it would be enough for two people to eat. We enjoyed it :):)
Delicious food!! The cheese stick katsu is a must-have! Vegetarian options: Some options for vegetarians Food : 5/5 |
The service is very good and the portions are plentiful and delicious haha. I dont think there is a place like Bdon in Canada
Its really crispy and the portions are plentiful... Theres no pork cutlet restaurant as delicious as Bdon.
The serving was very big and tasted amazing would come back again!

Great food, reasonably priced and fast service!
Great food, awesome portion(shareable if youre not that hungry). Waited for a bit but it was worth it. Only bummed out about the experience was that the server spilled a little sauce on me when he was cleaning the table. Other than that, a good place for food!!!
Come enjoy!!!

Great for value! I never had Korean style tonkatsu before, but it was nice! Huge portion of Katsu!
Best Katsu!
Was so great!!
ordered cheese stick katsu and brown katsu (pork)! went on a weekday and it was very busy! the cheese was mozzarella and very cheesy, but you will easily get full. the portion for the brown katsu is huge so definitely share! the katsu sauce is really good: not too salty and not too sweet. Vegetarian options: theres fish and other options that arent katsu
Very nice!
very nice
I came in to grab some food after a long day. The restaurant wasn t busy, and there were plenty of open tables. I requested to be seated at a table near the entrance, especially since it was close to closing time, and the restaurant had space. However, the server, an Asian male around 5 9 with black hair, asked me to sit in the middle row where only two other people were seated. His attitude came across as inconsiderate and rude. As a result, I completely lost my appetite and will never return to this restaurant again. It was a horrible experience, and I strongly suggest hiring staff with better customer service skills.
