" I ordered the beef teriyaki platter to go, and it was good but not great. The flavor was decent, and the portion was generous, but I found it to be a little bland. The service was efficient, and my order was ready on time, which I appreciated. I think this place has potential based on the reviews I've seen, so I'll give it another shot in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" I just had lunch at Katsuyaki and was absolutely blown away! Their spicy teriyaki chicken is mouth-watering! The staff was friendly and efficient, making my first experience there truly enjoyable. The atmosphere is laid-back and casual, which I find great for lunch breaks after work. I can't wait to come back and try their katsu burgers, which I've heard tons about! Highly recommend this place! " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic little spot! I tried their chicken teriyaki bowl on a whim, and it was fantastic! The chicken was tender, and the flavors were balanced well. Service was attentive as well, and I felt appreciated as a customer. On the downside, the ambiance felt a little too basic for my liking. Overall, I will be returning without a doubt! " (*Curated Review*)

" Katsuyaki is well-loved for its authentic Japanese cuisine. The teriyaki chicken and katsu are both scrumptious and generously portioned. The staff clearly takes pride in their food and hospitality, which creates a pleasant dining experience. I found it to be an excellent lunch spot for a quick bite without compromising quality. I’ll definitely return to see what else they might offer! " (*Curated Review*)

" I tried the chicken katsu plate, and it left a lasting impression! Between the juicy chicken and crispy exterior, every bite was satisfying. Login also gets a thumbs up for their service; everyone was welcoming and attentive. Just like the others, I felt that the interior could use a splash of color to liven it up. Despite this, the katsu plate alone makes it worth visiting again! " (*Curated Review*)

" Katsuyaki has quickly become my favorite lunch spot in Santa Clara! I can’t get enough of their chicken katsu burger. The breading is perfectly crispy while the chicken remains juicy. The spicy mayo they use adds an incredible kick. The staff is always friendly, and the service is quick even during lunchtime rushes. My only comment would be about the ambiance; while it's not the coziest place, the food more than makes up for it. I've tried a couple of different teriyaki dishes as well, and they never disappoint. Highly recommend giving this place a try! " (*Curated Review*)

" I discovered this place based on a friend's recommendation and it lived up to the hype! I found the teriyaki beef to be very tender and flavorful, while the portion was generous enough to fill me up without feeling sluggish afterward. The atmosphere is somewhat minimalist, which I like after a busy workday. The staff was friendly, attentive, and seem proud of their food. I’ll definitely return for another meal soon.
