I think I just found a hidden gem in Langford! We stopped by on a weekday evening for some Japanese-style tonkatsu, and wow—it did not disappoint. The place is small but super clean and cozy, with pictures of the food on the walls and menu, which made picking our dishes so much easier (thank you!). After some back-and-forth, we decided on the cheese menchi katsu and curry, and both were AMAZING! It’s not your usual tonkatsu—it felt more like a perfectly seasoned croquette fried to crispy perfection. Everything that came with it was fresh, tasty, and served in generous portions. Oh, and the warm tea? A lifesaver on a cold day—such a thoughtful touch. If I’m ever back in Langford, I’m 100% coming here again to explore more of the menu. If you’re craving a hot, delicious Japanese meal that’s not sushi, this spot is an absolute must. You’ll love it!

T, 15 October 2024 I had been meaning to come back for a while now and I’m glad I did. I got the cheese menchi curry rice again. It’s so warming and filling, perfect for fall weather (or anytime really!). They are very generous with their portions. Customer service is very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend! 🍛 Sat, 19 October 2024 Back again on a rainy Saturday to try their udon. I got the Nikutama Udon ($15.90) which is marinated beef slices, tempura crumbs, arugula, green onion, onsen tamago. As always, friendly servings and generous portions. Delicious and comforting for this weather. The onsen tamago is always perfectly made.

Come and support this amazing restaurant please guys! Their food is definitely top 3 on my list and here’s what you can get for under 20 bucks: - Cute restaurant decorations and chill atmosphere. With its Japanese-style plating, you can create many insta-worthy photos here. - Handmade and specially seasoned menchi katsu. Crispy outside and tender juicy inside, quite an authentic Asian flavor. - The portions are large to satisfy your big appetite. - Their cabbage salad is so so delicious, you must try it! Really like the light yuzu sauce as it goes well with kasu. - Japanese curry is another highlight. It’s hard to find in Victoria. - Somemore they still manage to surprise every customer with their attention to detail, such as garlic flakes, onsen tamago, tartar sauce, and free hot tea. We visited 30 mins before their break time, yet the server still welcome us warmly. So good that we found this restaurant!

Named after their beloved cat (you can find photos of the feline in the establishment), this tiny eatery that packs big flavors and perfectly crisp yet light deep fried goodness. According to the owner it's only been about 5 months since they've opened. We're just tourists staying in the area and hoping social media could direct us to a decent place in Langford. Well we found one... the establishment is super clean with cheerful jazz background music. The curry is made from scratch, you could taste the subtle yet earthy notes. The menchi is the highlight, juicy yet packs a crunch and not oily at all... now that takes skill at the right temperature The udon reminds me of Korean style jam bons... noodle soup with flavors appearing to be wok/pan fried first, then added to the noodles and broth bringing out stronger seared flavors. All in all an enjoyable experience with lots of food for the money. Worth a visit.

It’s crazy to me this place isn’t busy. I kinda judge by the pictures online; the pictures really don’t do this place justice. I felt like keeping this hidden gem to myself cause it’s a pretty small spot but I’m worried they wont stay open if more people aren’t coming through. Food: so good I went back to back days to try out different food items. Everything taste fresh and full of flavor. I only wish they had a better egg. I had their cheese menchi curry dish the first day. Never had Japanese curry before. So good. Second day I had the chicken katsu don. It had a dill taste and is served with some slices of pickle which was different than what I was expecting but the flavor combo was amazing. Service is very good, complimentary tea. Owners are very proud of the food Atmosphere is simple and relaxing. Price: for the cost of a coffee and some donuts at think you can have yourself a soul food type meal. Makes no sense why it’s not packed. Im assuming people just judged by the pictures like I did initially. So glad we have this in the hood. Cant wait to come back. One of the top hidden gems in Victoria if you like Japanese style food

Complimentary tea is the best and the staff makes the place very inviting. The door is almost like vacuumed shut so pull hard to get in the restaurant especially on a gusty day when I came in to visit. I think the server thought I was crazy for wanting to try two dishes and I see why. Their portions are huge and generous; you definitely get the value. But I proved to her after polishing the first dish that I could final order the second dish What can I say? The Menchi Katsu was very cheesy. I think it took anywhere from 10-14 pulls until the stringy cheese breaks off. All I could feel is the warmth and savory taste which I can't get enough out of. The sauces were flavorful and I really like the plating. The Japanese curry was simply delicious 🤤 Overall a stellar visit. Definitely will need to come back here again with friends.

Came here with a couple friends and really enjoyed our experience here. The manager and server were both attentive to check on our food and even gave us some free curry. Best way to describe the food is Japanese inspiration with a Korean twist in fusion which were all super flavourful and tasty. We especially enjoyed the katsu and the curry. Portion, texture and flavour were all very unique and the prices for portion was quite reasonable. The restaurant does not have that much seating but their decorations were super cool like their photographs from Japan and Korea. Love the cat theme! We will definitely be back to eat again ☺️

Really cute little restaurant with nice servings of good food for reasonable prices and friendly service. It has very good vibes Ive gotten the bulgogi bowl both times Ive been, the chicken katsu looks good but the sauce has dill which I dislike. The menchi katsu are also quite good. Also they give you free tea, which so few places do anymore! Its the little things.

Very impressed by the quality of food at Kazumi. Everything was perfectly seasoned and tasted really fresh.

Walked by this restaurant several times and decided to pull the trigger and have it delivered. First off the restaurant logo and atmosphere is great clean and fun. The food was stellar, I had the udon and my wife had cheese katsu.( which I finished as the portions where quite large) The udon blew me away very flavourful and had a taste I couldn t get enough of complex and interesting. The katsu was so crunchy and I could eat it all day the sauces were totally different from anything else I have had but I loved them. And honestly a great touch but the katsu holds its own even without sauce. The instructions on the box were great too and a fun way to hear the makers favourite way to enjoy the meal. This place is on my short list of must go locations to eat.

Came here for lunch and there was no line. I ordered the nikutama udon, bulgolgi don, and spicy menchi katsu. The chef gave us a small complimentary bowl of curry to try. He mentioned it was stewed for over 3 hours. Tea was brought to the table and it was very light. I m used to strong teas but I really enjoyed this light tea and would definitely get it again. The udon was absolutely delicious. The broth was light, udon was firm, and beef was savoury. The don was so springing and full of flavour. The spicy menchi katsu was different to anything I have experience in fusion food. The meat tasted like steamed pork buns (not the char siu kind). Accompanied sauces matched the flavour. I loved the idea it could all be a sandwich. Now the curry, you cannot miss out. I dumped a lot of the curry into the udon and it enhanced the flavour. I am certain the curry udon tastes absolutely delicious based on the small sample. Tasted great with the rice and an amazing dip for the menchi katsu. I would order everything I ordered again. This is not a place to skip.

I ordered take-out: Salmon and tuna sashimi, Negitoro roll, Vegetable tempura and, Miso soup. As an experienced sushi eater from the lower mainland, I found the quality of the sushi to be in the upper rankings and a fair price. The crisp tempura on the optimally ripe vegetables gave excellent mouth feel and superb taste! The salmon and tuna was melt-in-the-mouth, served on freshly grated daikon radish. Negitoro roll hit the mark. Miso soup was ok. 3 stars for atmosphere - not geared towards dine-in. Will return.

Surprisingly fantastic, this is a hidden gem in Langford. The sushi is really high quality, with delicious new creations, and trusted familiar standards. The Japanese non-sushi dishes are great too, authentic and balanced flavours made by people in the kitchen who clearly love Japanese food. I want to point out in particular the Peatt Roll (named after the Langford street name) which is original and subtle, I was genuinely surprised! Finally I want to point out how good the service is here. My elderly mother had a few requests which were gracefully accommodated, the server was smiling and pleasant the whole time, and the cooks were clearly busy but took time to make their presentations great. Top marks for this great local restaurant!

I d say it s pretty middle of the road sushi. I got a bc cone and kamikaze tuna roll. The tuna roll was probably one of the smallest sized rolls I ve seen in a while. A little bigger than a hosomaki. For $12.90 you d think it d be bigger. The sauce was pretty good. The bc cone was just okay. The salmon skin itself was quite dry and hard to swallow.
