A regular since last year ordered the special loin katsu again, refilled the myeongi namul (wild garlic leaves), green onion kimchi and beef radish soup several times, and ate at a window counter seat while gazing out at the greenery. With bright pink meat that's tender, not chewy, this is the writer's top pick for katsu in Jeonpo. ## Good to know - **Hours**: Daily 11:30-21:00 - **Last order**: 20:30 - **Parking**: Not available (Jeonpo Station parking lot recommended) - **Reservations**: Catch Table app or in-store tablet - **Ordered**: Special loin katsu - **Location**: 2-minute walk from Jeonpo Station Exit 2 *as written by the visitor on Sep 8, 2026* Today I'm finally writing about a tonkatsu place I go to REALLY often. Where's everyone's number one tonkatsu spot? I'm a total tonkatsu lover so I've eaten a lot of it by now.. but there's one place I go to unusually often out of all of them. I've been going steadily since last year — it's easy to get to, there's not a crazy wait, but you still get premium-level service for what you pay. This is a place I go to again and again and again and again — Katsu Kitchen!! It came to mind again so I went straight there. I think it's the number one tonkatsu spot (better than that other famous chain), so whenever I want tonkatsu, this is where I go haha. There are SO many tonkatsu places in Jeonpo, right?? A few of them are famous, but I confidently recommend this one haha. Where is it, you ask~~ ## Katsu Kitchen Jeonpo Main Branch hours and reservations - Hours: Daily 11:30-21:00 - Last order: 20:30 - No parking available - Reservations available via Catch Table ![Hours information for Katsu Kitchen Premium Jeonpo Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu-01-1woli-900.webp) ## Finding it from Jeonpo Station — the entrance is confusing Come out Exit 2 of Jeonpo Station and walk about 2 minutes and you're there. The streets are narrow here so I recommend parking at the Jeonpo Station parking lot! But that lot is super popular too, so you need to grab a spot early .. ★ ![Route to Katsu Kitchen near Jeonpo Station Exit 2](https://img.superchart.com/images/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu-02-135cj-900.webp) Here comes my dopamine. A lot of people can't find Katsu Kitchen's entrance, but if you go into the building right next to Kitoni, it's right there! (I was the one wandering around lost the first time I came..) ![Katsu Kitchen entrance in the building next to Kitoni](https://img.superchart.com/images/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu-03-hut0a-900.webp) Keep walking straight and you'll see Katsu Kitchen haha. There are several shops in a row so make sure you find the right one! ![Katsu Kitchen sign inside a passage lined with several shops](https://img.superchart.com/images/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu-04-1jp5o-900.webp) It's decorated in a Japanese style, so you can tell they're serious about tonkatsu lol. There's a tablet set up for Catch Table reservations too, so you can reserve in person or through the Catch Table app. ![Japanese-style storefront of Katsu Kitchen and the reservation tablet](https://img.superchart.com/images/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu-05-1pcqe-900.webp) Luckily there was no wait so we got seated right away haha. ![Inside Katsu Kitchen, seated without waiting](https://img.superchart.com/images/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu-06-1d3op-900.webp) ## The dish I order every time: special loin katsu Here's the menu. Every time I come here I order the special loin katsu*_* I haven't found anywhere else this good ㅠㅠ ![Katsu Kitchen's tonkatsu menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu-07-ma6q2-900.webp) ## Green onion kimchi and myeongi namul, the banchan lineup When we ordered, they brought out all the side dishes. ![Side dishes served with the special loin katsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu-08-15fou-900.webp) Up close you can see the myeongi namul (wild garlic leaves) finely chopped, so good to eat alongside the katsu. And their green onion kimchi is amazing … ♥ They give plenty of wasabi and salt too, which was nice haha. ![Plate of finely chopped myeongi namul and green onion kimchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu-09-12be2-900.webp) ## Beef radish soup I refilled more times than I can count One of the reasons I'm obsessed with Katsu Kitchen is the beef radish soup — it's really … really good. Honestly better than my mom's .. it's that good, so I refill it several times!! ![A bowl of beef radish soup that was refilled multiple times](https://img.superchart.com/images/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu-10-1nik4-900.webp) And once again, places that don't serve bottled water are always the good ones (?). The water tasted amazing too. ![A glass of house-served water, not bottled](https://img.superchart.com/images/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu-11-1l2en-900.webp) ## Zoning out at the window counter seat I sat at the window counter seat and ended up zoning out staring at the greenery outside lol. The view was really nice. ![Green scenery seen from the window counter seat](https://img.superchart.com/images/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu-12-1xcfa-609.webp) ## The sauce combo, with a spicy sauce as the kicker The owner picked out only the tasty dressing sauces. He knows his stuff. Especially this spicy sauce — that's the kicker .. drop in a bit of sesame oil if you want and it's heaven. ![Dressing sauce and spicy sauce served with the tonkatsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu-13-824n9-1200.webp) ## How was the special loin katsu meat quality? Ta-da!!! Do you see that pretty bright pink color? This is exactly why I love Katsu Kitchen ㅠㅠ Visual, texture, meat quality — all number one. Not chewy at all, just melts in your mouth🥲❤️ ![Special loin katsu with a bright pink cross-section visible](https://img.superchart.com/images/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu-14-1qyij-900.webp) ## An ice cream finish Another great thing about this place — once you look like you're done eating, the owner senses it and brings out ice cream. Tonkatsu is deep-fried no matter what, so depending on how you're feeling it can get a bit heavy, right? This wipes that right out .. even a small gesture like this really moves me ㅜㅋㅋ As always, it was so so good. Since it's already a place I keep going back to again and again, of course I'll be back. If you're looking for tonkatsu in Jeonpo, I recommend Katsu Kitchen! ## Where it is - Katsu Kitchen Premium Jeonpo Main Branch (카츠키친 프리미엄 전포 본점) - 27-6 Dongseong-ro 25beon-gil, Busanjin-gu, Busan, South Korea - 부산광역시 부산진구 동성로25번길 27-6 카츠키친 - 35.1524799, 129.0668491 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EC%B9%B4%EC%B8%A0%ED%82%A4%EC%B9%9C%20%ED%94%84%EB%A6%AC%EB%AF%B8%EC%97%84%20%EC%A0%84%ED%8F%AC%20%EB%B3%B8%EC%A0%90/@35.1524799,129.0668491,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@busan-pair-chopsticks/katsu-kitchen-jeonpo-teuk-loin-katsu/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
