Gyukatsu Kyoto Katsugyu @ One Holland Village - Bringing Its Signature Japanese Beef Cutlet to the West

Fans of Gyukatsu Kyoto Katsugyu can now rejoice, as the famed Japanese beef cutlet specialist opens its second outlet at One Holland Village. Regulars no longer have to brave the perpetual queue at its first Singapore outpost in Raffles City. At this new location, Gyukatsu Kyoto Katsugyu – Japan’s largest gyukatsu speciality restaurant, continues to serve up the same authentic flavours and premium beef cuts that have made it so popular.

Sirloin & Tenderloin Gyukatsu Zen 4/5

Sirloin & Beef Tongue Gyukatsu Zen 4/5

During our visit, we sampled the Sirloin & Tenderloin Gyukatsu Zen ($29) and Sirloin & Beef Tongue Gyukatsu Zen ($32). Each steak is carefully selected from choice cuts of prime beef, coated in a koromo batter made from a secret golden ratio of breadcrumbs, flour and egg wash, then deep-fried to medium-rare perfection in fresh oil that’s changed daily. The result is a clean, crisp crust encasing juicy, tender beef within.

Each set is thoughtfully presented with a selection of condiments to complement the flavours of the gyukatsu, alongside rice, miso soup and cabbage salad. The Sirloin offers a balanced cut with just the right amount of marbling, delivering a rich, beefy flavour and satisfying tenderness. The Tenderloin provides a leaner and more delicate bite, while the Beef Tongue impresses with its thick-cut buttery texture and pleasant chew, a treat for those who enjoy something more uncommon. Diners can also sear the beef further on a personal konro (traditional Japanese earthenware grill) to their preferred doneness.

Miyazaki A5 Sirloin ½ portion 4/5

For those seeking an indulgent upgrade, the Miyazaki A5 Sirloin ½ portion ($25) is a must-try. This prized wagyu, hailing from Japan’s award-winning Miyazaki prefecture, boasts exceptional marbling and a melt-in-the-mouth tenderness that epitomises the pinnacle of gyukatsu dining. Lightly crisp on the outside and luxuriously buttery within, every bite reveals the natural richness and umami depth of top-grade wagyu beef.

Whether you’re a returning fan or new to the brand, Gyukatsu Kyoto Katsugyu at One Holland Village offers an authentic and satisfying gyukatsu experience that truly lives up to its name.
