Try this little hidden gem! Everything was hot, fresh, delicious! They make their own broth. They make their own bread and then their own breadcrumbs from that for the Katsu. The portions are HUGE! We had great service and fair prices. Support this business! You won't be disappointed!

Where has this place been all my life. I came across this gem just driving by. I tried a few things off the menu and I couldn't stop eating it all. Their chicken sandwich is to die for and it's so different and unique. There's nothing to compare to, give this place a try you'll thank me later

We were shopping in the area and we were lured in by the display of food models in the front, reminiscent of many restaurants in Japan. As we entered, we saw a large news article pasted on the wall describing the store and how it specializes in katsu, a pretty rare sight in Metro Detroit. The restaurant is run by a South Korean husband and wife team and K-pop plays softly in the background, giving a homey feel as you eat. We were greeted warmly and, although the restaurant was decently busy, the proprietress was very friendly and prompt. We opted to get two dishes - one with their special katsu, and one ramen, their namesake. Tonkatsu Curry Donburi ($16.95) - The donburi first comes with a small bowl of miso soup. The soup is a savory umami bomb. It's pretty simple, with only a couple of pieces of wakame and green onion inside. For the donburi (not sure why they call this a donburi since this isn't really one), they give a good amount of short grain rice, filling half the bowl. It's cooked to a good consistency, allowing a chewy al dente bite, and each individual grain to be felt on the tongue. I think they might let it sit out too long (maybe they leave their rice cooker lid open?), though, because while the grains themselves are good, between the grains is a little on the drier side. The curry has a nice strong curry flavor, with a bit of sweetness and quite a bit of salt added (too salty). It doesn't taste like Golden Curry, perhaps the flavor profile resembles more of a Java Curry with added ingredients? They have quite a bit of sliced onion, small potato chunks, and a small amount of tender diced beef mixed in. The curry doesn't come with any fukujinzuke (daikon pickles) which is strange - I guess a sign that's it's not a true Japanese curry. Lastly, the start of the show here is the tonkatsu. It's relatively lean piece of pork, seasoned simply with a bit of salt and black pepper, then breaded with a light, crispy, kind of jagged mixture of home-made bread crumbs. If you fixate on the texture, it reminds me of the landscape in "Wanderer above the Sea of Fog". The texture is pretty similar to tempura but the breadcrumbs gives a slight extra crunch. Even after sitting out for a bit, the pork still retains a crunch, even the side touching the rice. The tonkatsu is easily a 5/5, but unfortunately the saltiness of the curry and the less-than-ideal dryness of the rice brings my rating down just a tad. (4/5) Tonkotsu Ramen ($14.95) - The ramen first comes with a side salad that consists of predominantly shredded green cabbage with a few shreds of red cabbage. It's mixed with a dressing that's quite nutty from sesame, and sweet and tangy. The cabbage imparts a good crispness. The ramen they use is of a thinner, paler variety, but it's cooked well, giving a bit of a bounciness in the chew. The broth here is a bit better than the typical ramen shop in Metro Detroit - you can tell that there's a bit more richness than the powder broth base some of the other shops around use. They honestly might still use a powder base, but it's enhanced a bit by a nice porkiness from pork broth and the strong taste of aromatics (garlic in particular). It is on the saltier side. The toppings on this ramen includes corn, a half soft boiled egg with a somewhat jammy center, a pile of sliced scallions, marinated shiitake mushrooms, a slice of naruto, and a rectangular slice of their chashu. The chashu here isn't the best; it could stand to be more tender, as the fat layer isn't rendered all the well and still has a distinctive fatty chew. The slice is generous, and maybe could have been sliced in half thickness wise to make it more tender. They torch one side of the chashu so that it imparts another layer of flavor to the meat. The shiitake is marinated in a heavily sweet and salty broth. Some slices are thicker cut than the others. It's a welcome departure from the normal kikurage (wood ear fungus) that a lot of other places use in ramen. (4/5) Ginza Ramen is a solid Japanese-ish restaurant. Their ramen is honestly better than much of the ramen you can find around Metro Detroit - even better than some of the more lauded places in Novi. The katsu here is top tier for the region and is a draw just by itself. Bathrooms - Two individual rooms, one for men, one for women. Overall rating of the food this visit: 4/5

It will be hard not to come back every week! Wow! Amazing flavors and quality and such nice service! Everything we had was excellent and the restaurant was quiet and clean. The curry flavors were complex and authentic, the chicken Katsu was thick and crunchy. We will be back to explore more of the menu for sure!!

such an amazing ramen spot! Authentic flavors, friendly staff, and clean atmosphere. I really enjoyed the vegetable ramen and cabbage salad! I will definitely be back whenever i'm in the area

Amazing meal! They have an extensive menu with all kinds of fun things to try, but I was feeling like sticking to a classic ramen today. I got the Ginza Ramen (signature) which comes with marinated egg, fish cake, chashu, green onion, corn, mushroom, fried tofu, and a spicy sauce. They also had a ramen combo option to add katsu for another $4.95 - a no brainer. I got the pork katsu. The meal came with a small salad that paired really nicely with the katsu. AND my friend and I split another order of pork chashu because it's that good. The ramen was delicious, so savory and warming. The noodles were perfectly chewy, egg perfectly soft boiled, chashu rich, corn sweet. It all worked really well together and had a great depth of flavor. The katsu was so fun to try too! I felt like the katsu itself was a little underseasoned but then dunked in the sauce was delicious. Friendly service and nice environment. Would come here for lunch or dinner, with friends, family, or on a date! Easy and ample parking.

The pork katsu breading was so crispy and delicious! The meat itself was a little dry but it was still good. The yellow sauce is a honey mustard sauce and I cant really pinpoint what the brown sauce is! Service was quick and nice. It comes with two katsus so I was pretty full just from the pork katsu itself! Would recommend if you want japanese style katsu!

I looked up, sushi places near me, and this came up. It turns out that it's not exactly a sushi place. But, that's not exactly a problem. There's a lot to like here. Even though I was in the mood for sushi, there were a lot of things on the menu that looked great. Ramen and udon noodles. Katsu burgers, which are deep-fried, chicken, fish, shrimp, or pork patties. Donburi, a dish with meat and vegetables on rice. They have chicken wings, white oysters, calamari, spring rolls. The only thing there didn't seem to be was... Sushi. Then, I realized that the "katsu rolls" were the same thing as sushi. The katsu rolls and had with shrimp, chicken, pork, or vegetables. And, you can have a mild or spicy sauce drizzled on it. I went with the shrimp and the spicy sauce. Unlike some milder spicy mayo, this had some heat to it. These are larger than most sushi... about the diameter of a silver dollar. They put shredded cabbage in the middle, which makes it chewier than most sushi. The katsu roll comes out the a bowl of miso soup. It's cloudy bowl of salty goodness that's served before the main dish. And, it was very soon after the soup that the food arrived. This is a great place to go when you're in a rush. I only wish I hadn't been fixated on sushi when I walked in the door. The guy at another table ordered a katsu burger, which looked amazing. And, he had a basket of tater tots. Tater tots! They did say "fusion" on the sign, after all. I definitely want to come back and try that. This place is small, and doesn't stand out, since it's part of a strip mall. But, that also means it's not likely to be busy. It wasn't when I went there. That, plus the quick service, plus the variety mean there are a lot of reasons to come back.
