The food in this Chinatown Point outlet is not very cleaned. My whole family got a severe diarrhea after eating the food here. My father ended up visiting a doctor and paid for the hefty sum of medical fees. The pork cutlets are very stale and not cooked at all. I recommend others diners not to eat at this restaurant.

The kaisendon had very different sized pieces and barely covered the rice; it was quite sad.
The cherry on top was the karaage which was clearly frozen, under seasoned and chewy.
The tenderloin curry was alright though. I suppose this place is known for its pork cuts but the hope is to have its supporting characters as good as its mains.
This place is great for a fast meal but that’s it. There are definitely better places out there for similar food.

Very tender, quite fatty. Not bad for $13.07 but somewhere else probably better price quality ratio

They only have one or two kinds of Ramen but the taste was great. All of their foods really like authentic Japanese foods. It's really worth it the price of every meal on their menu. We may come back here again to taste other dishes.
Fast serving also. We are surprised how fast they prepare your order. Good service. Enjoyed our food dine in here.

I recently visited Gochi-So Shokudo Japanese Restaurant to try their new launch, the JAPANESE IBERICO CHAR SIEW FEAST, and it was a delightful experience. The star of the show was their Japanese Iberico Char Siew Don, priced at just $8.80 from Monday to Thursday, a fantastic deal for such quality. The char siew was tender and flavorful, with a perfect balance of sweet and savory notes, paired beautifully an onsen egg on top of the fluffy Japanese rice.
We also tried the Iberico Char Siew & Iberico Loin Katsu Set, which is an incredible value at only $10.80. The Iberico loin katsu was crispy on the outside while remaining juicy and succulent on the inside, making every bite satisfying.
From their usual menu, we indulged in the Iberico Sirloin Katsu Curry. The rich, aromatic curry paired with the tender sirloin katsu was a match made in heaven—comforting and full of flavor. The Iberico Pork Leg Ham Katsu Soba Noodles offered a delightful contrast with its light, refreshing broth and crispy katsu, providing a perfect balance of textures.
Lastly, the Kami Nabe Shabu Shabu was a heartwarming dish, with thin slices of Iberico pork cooked in a delicate broth that allowed the natural sweetness of the pork to shine through.
