A little confusion over the two identically named restaurants on opposite sides of the junction 😆 However, we had no regrets ending up in this one yesterday!

Beautiful food, with some of the most unique delicate 'batter' (if that's the right word, it was more like a flakey shell) around the chicken katsu. For an amazing ly good value of ~940 yen, the chicken katsu came with a Japanese salad starter, pickled vegetable side, a cloudy miso soup (very good flavour and texture), and some of my favourite sticky rice I've had on this trip! Large grains, clumps nicely on chopsticks, very shiny.

Service was very attentive, friendly, welcoming, and they had good English! Also a (simple) English menu was available. As we've been finding in Nagasaki, you don't see foreigners often, but this place was full of locals of all ages, a good sign that it was popular with Japanese people. I only gave 4 stars for atmosphere because it had some broken wallpaper, that's it! It seems a very functional restaurant that prioritises food quality over an overly impressive room. I would definitely come back for more katsu if I were staying in Nagasaki longer!
