Kobako Katsu — Restaurant in Austin

Amazing. Been looking for fried pork cutlet so was excited to try this place. Not disappointed! I had to take it to go so by the time I got home it was not fresh and yet still tasted amazing. Can only imagine what dining in would taste like. My only gripe is maybe the price is about a dollar or two higher than I feel it should be. I felt like I could have gotten a little more rice and pickled radish (cabbage?) Maybe I got less since it was to go because the way these were packaged they def packed all they could in. But it is what it is. Miso soup was amazing! The mac salad and jalapenos were new sides for me in regards to this dish and how other places serve it and they were great additions!

It's also thin like a schnitzel and the sauce was a tad fruitier than a Japanese katsu sauce. The amount of stares and wonder it brought to others was worth it. Ate a fifth of it and took...

I always wanted to try the king sized Texas katsu, so I got it to share with a friend. When I went up to get it, I was pleasantly surprised that there were actually two giant katsus waiting for us. Amongst the two of us and two others who took some as well, we only finished one katsu. They blew me away with the quantity. Now for the quality part. The curry sauce is pretty necessary to have since katsu in general needs a bit of sauce. It felt more like gravy so that was interesting. The rice, slaw, and mac were forgettable.

I think I’d come back for this again but share it amongst four people while they bring some...
