Midoh - Sawtelle

Went for a late dinner on a Saturday night. No wait. We ordered the Mentai Saefood Udon, Nabeyyaki udon, Hamburg Steak with cheese & shrimp with the demi glace and Chicken Nanban. All with the corn soup. The food was good and also good size portions.

*Delayed post from April ‘25 After traveling Japan for a month earlier in the year, I was craving Japanese food, so we checked out this spot off Sawtelle. 1 hour of parking is complimentary in the underground lot, but the attendant will charge you for any additional time. The restaurant is on the 2nd floor on the right side of the complex. The atmosphere of the place was nice and I enjoyed the booth seating, but the service was very minimal. We had to ask for drink refills and wave down our server for everything from initial ordering to the check. The udon I ordered was actually really tasty and came out super hot. It was on the sweeter side and the tempura shrimp on top was well cooked, but was lacking salt. I'd recommend taking it out of the bowl to eat little by little so it doesn't get immediately soggy. Unfortunately the egg inside was cooked weird and still had shell bits on it. The Carbonara was very creamy, but needed more seasoning. The ham added some saltiness, but it needed more. Maybe they could add dried seaweed flakes on top? Overall however, this meal was too heavy and too large a portion. If the dish had more elements to it that balanced out the heaviness, perhaps half the amount of noodles and sauce and a side salad instead, it would have been a more enjoyable meal.

Midoh is a hidden gem with a great selection of authentic Japanese diner classics. Had the Hamburg steak and it was epic with the teriyaki sauce. Super filling and yummy. The service was fast and friendly and the prices were very reasonable. Would definitely go back.

Authentic Japanese meals, delightful to indulge. The dinning room is large, peaceful, Japanese music is always playing. Sake bottles are used as decor which makes it feel a little bland, so a suggestion to find something stylish or plants. There is a small outdoor seating area which usually feels chilly. Drink selection seems decent, teas are good. Starting off our meal with miso soup which tasted authentic and a small three greens salad with the signature orange sauce. I am aware a few years back it was made/sold in house, I forgot to ask on my recent visit. *When ordering please be aware of specifying which type of tempura you would prefer* The Hamburg steak is a mix of pork + beef, found out they are freshly made and will sell out although I do not recommend to a picky eater. I have ordered the Curry with an add on of chicken as pictured below. The amount of protein for 8.50 does not feel fulling. My favorite go to dish is the Omurice, recent picture with demi glaze although I highly recommend asking for curry sauce.

Hidden gem on Sawtelle - on the second floor above Nikita Authentic Japanese-style western cuisine, and a great value too. We got the takoyaki which was solid, and the side soup and salad were good as well. The star of the show was the Hamburg steak with the demi-glace, deep flavor that pairs well with everything else on their menu as well. The seafood soup uding was excellent and garlicky without being too rich. Service was fast and helpful

TLDR great home cook style meals with amazing staff. This is our new go to restaurant. Looking forward to trying all the new dishes. Located on the second floor in the same plaza as Nijiya and Beard Papa, it's not hard to spit from the road. There is underground self/valet parking in the plaza and metered parking on the street. My boyfriend and I love Midoh and used to drive from LA to rowland heights to their original location, so when we heard a new Midoh was moving into the Curry House spot, we couldn't think of a better replacement. The restaurant has seating available outside on their balcony as well as in front of the restaurant. I prefer the balcony as it has a nice view of the street. Service as always is exceptional. The chef is super accommodating if you have any issues and the waitresses are kind and patient. As for food, I don't think you can go wrong with any dish, they all have a unique homecook flavor. Something to note, the dishes are a few dollars more at this location than in Rowland Heights. It is not unexpected given the location, but something to keep in mind. Almost every dish comes with soup and salad. My favorite dish is the Vongole udon; the soup is light and flavorful and the panna cotta is the dessert that ties everything together. My boyfriend loves their Katsu Sando and Omurice. However, if you are a regular Rowland Heights Midoh fan, there are some changes to note. The Katsu Sando does not come with a soup and salad (but you can add the soup for $2 and salad for $1!) and you will have to ask for the tartar sauce. For the omurice, the rice is curry rice instead of a ketchup base, which was an unexpected surprise. They also have a few new items on the menu. We haven't gotten around to trying everything, but we greatly enjoyed the red bean cheesecake. For those who have a food allergy, please make sure the kitchen knows. The curry has peanut as an ingredient.

I was not particularly impressed with my curry. Don't get me wrong, it's fine. It's Japanese curry and most places are about the same. The hamburger steak was ok. I have had much better ones which was more moist. This one seems tough. As hamburger you can imagine. The seafood doria was excellent. It's because of the curry fried rice. And if you like cheese, it's covered with lots of cheese and cream when it was baked. It's excellent. If I ever come back here, that's what I would crave for. So 3 stars for curry burger, 4.5 stars for

I enjoy eating Midoh restaurant. The first time I came there was that I have the Tonkotsu Loin and Filet which is really good. But this time yesterday I tried the Hamburger Steak with Cheese and Fried Shrimp which is really delicious. You can choose which sauce you want on the Hamburger Steak which is either Demi Glance, Onions, Teriyaki’s, and Ponzu. You can have a second sauce which cost $1.50. They also have dessert and you can pick which cake you want to take either eating in the restaurant or take out and enjoy eating the cake with your family and friends. So I would definitely come back there to tried different foods at Midoh.

INCREDIBLE!!!! Best katsu I've had since I visited Japan. Crispy, tasty, fresh, balanced. The corn soup was amazing and I hope you all try it! The Tonkatsu Filet and Loin meals were so juicy and tender. Server was incredibly kind and attentive. It was quiet on a Tuesday night, but don't let the quietness mislead you on its quality. Clean and very cozy interior. I might have to put this on my regular list! Parking is paid within the plaza, but FREE with $10 purchase in said plaza.I think it was like $5 for every half hour after. I'll be back!!!!

The food is okay. We went on a Saturday afternoon and the restaurant was pretty empty. No wait times. Ambiance just feels like an old Japanese restaurant. They have different options such as hamburger steak, katsu, and udon! Love the curry rice with the cheese on top! Definitely recommend this for comfort food. The service is just "ok". Not the friendliest servers. There was only 2 server. Located in a plaza where we paid for parking for about 2 hours = $4. Must becareful around this area they tend to give tickets often so the plaza is good in this busy area!

Solid authentic japanese place with great curry hamburg and other options. The curry is not boring, sometimes it's light but here's it's rich and flavorful. Seating feels weird since there's a lot of space but in that sense it mirrors the Midoh in RH. TBH if you've been to the RH one, you're going to get the same experience here and I think vice versa? Parking is underground and they have a valet, not too bad, when it's busy just be careful with lots of traffic etc. Fish and Chips was something I ordered but actually didn't like it unfortunately due to the fish being... too fishy? TLDR: go for the specific dishes that they're good for but otherwise I might pick something else. Cozy and somewhat casual feeling inside! You can see pictures.

Stopped by late on a Sunday with a few friends. We were seated right away, although the restaurant was super busy so service was a tad bit slower than would probably be but our poor server also looked a bit frazzled so I felt for her. We all got a different version of the spicy curry combo with corn soup. I got it mild, and it was the perfect kick of spice without being overwhelming. Very laid back place. Parking looked a bit tough but we parked on the side streets and walked. Would come again!

Perfect place to get authentic japanese cuisine that's not sushi. We got the Omrice, Nabeyaki udon with beef and Mentai seafood udon. Each item was delicious and tasted like grandma made it. Portions and prices were perfect imo. The salad and corn soup were such a hit and I could honestly eat 3 more servings of them! Service was good, fast and efficient. The restaurant itself is very casual with lots of seating and bathrooms.

I came in with low expectations and was willing to check this place out simply because I was surprised to see vegan options on their online menu. If I had the capacity for a big meal, I would have ordered the Tomato Sauce Udon. But I wanted something light on this particular day and had the Tofu Salad. This salad was pretty impressive! On top of a bed of mixed greens, there was thinly shredded cabbage, and a thinly shaved white vegetable that I couldn't quite identify...maybe radish? The culinary presentation alone let me know they put thought and care into a simple salad. The sesame dressing added great flavor to the fresh produce and tofu. https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/midoh-sawtelle-west-los-angeles-2?select=dTKK2OWCGiZ4_Kg3Qwnckw Edamame is good! https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/midoh-sawtelle-west-los-angeles-2?select=pNVtT6SlU7BNrgcMLl88qQ Fries are good! https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/midoh-sawtelle-west-los-angeles-2?select=tY1LecgXN4tdXENvWRV95Q The vegan markings on the online menu don't exactly match the markings on the hard copy menus in the restaurant. I had to ask staff for clarification. Would I go out of my way for this place? Probably not. But good to know this is a solid option on Sawtelle.

delicious food and decently priced for the area. I had a curry udon and loved every drop of it. My friends also enjoyed the tofu curry and katsu with curry. I'll be back next time I'm in this part of town.

A Japanese family restaurant in the center of Little Osaka. The menu has everything from katsu sandwiches to omurice to ebi fry. The presentation of these simple items is skillfully designed making you long for a trip to Japan. The service was great, although I came during lunch. The seating is very comfortable and inviting with some cool outdoor patio seats with a view of Sawtelle. It's a little pricey for family food but I wasn't disappointed by the quality.

Came here during the heat wave during early September. We were seated very quickly since the place only had 2 other tables occupied. We ordered a hamburg steak with demi-glace sauce and basil sauce udon (with no cheese); each dish came with a side of salad and we chose the side of corn soup. The salad was pretty average, and the corn soup was simple but tasty. The basil sauce udon didn't really have a strong taste of basil, and the bacon pieces were pretty tiny. The hamburg was not bad, but the sauce was very salty; I'm not sure if I just didn't like it personally, but I felt like the sauce ruined part of the dish for me. The handmade ground meat patty is very heavy, and something about it made me wish it was it was a bit more traditional. Overall, food was OK. One thing I do wish they told us ahead of time (even though we should've noticed based on the open doors everywhere) was that the AC wasn't working... when the outside temperature was 100+, it made the dining experience VERY unpleasant. I try not to base my rating based on the weather like this, but it does make me not want to return unfortunately. However, Midoh does have a decently sized menu and their food honestly was decent; there's bound to be something for everyone, so give it a try if you're craving Japanese food aside from the traditional sushi and ramen joints!

Loved this place. Very good service. Both udon and the curry was delicious. The katsu was so beautifully crispy. I would definitely come here again

Grabbed lunch with some friends and we decided on Midoh. It's been a very long time since I've been to Midoh but their location in SGV but it's Japanese curry so I was excited. The menu has very modular in the sense that you can add sides/ proteins to whatever flavor. I decided to mix it up with a fish curry vs the usual chicken or port katsu. It comes with a side salad and a choice of another side which I chose the corn soup. The corn soup was what you'd expect with a bit of sweetness and that smooth but creamy texture. Delish. The curry and fish were good. I think the curry could've packed a bigger PUNCH but it was what yours expect from Japanese curry. The fish was good but not as hearty as the chicken or pork katsu. If you want something lighter, this is the way to go. I think Midoh is better than the other curry places on Sawtelle so fully recommend this one over others. Service is solid and they at super cordial and friendly. For around $20, it does feel a bit steep for what you get tbh but also it's essentially the norm now for any meal (sadly). Make your way upstairs in the plaza. It's worth it!

A gem in the Sawtelle food scene! Overall would definitely come back to try other things on the menu. Came here on a Thursday night around 6:30pm with two friends and we waited for about 10 mins before getting seated inside. The restaurant itself was clean and spacious with plenty of seating. They gave us menus and each food item has its own picture and description which was so helpful to choose what food to eat. Service was fast even though only two servers were working! Food we ate - Chicken katsu was crunchy and tasty - Curry had a lot of spice and very savory - Miso soup was light and flavorful - Side salad was refreshing - Corn soup was my favorite item, it was so creamy but also light (not heavy at all)! Tasted like happiness - Seafood doria was soo cheesy and creamy! Good variety of seafood (shrimp, squid, scallop and had some curry rice hidden underneath too). I was full and ended up taking it home for leftovers Prices were reasonable, as each person's meal came out to be about $25 (including tip). Food was delicious and so worth it, as we loved everything that we got! Parking can be a hassle as it is located in a small plaza shared with other businesses. There are also a few parking structures available or street parking in the residential areas (just watch out for parking signs) if you're in the mood for walking!

The Midoh reminds me of Saizeriya which is my favorite place to go when I was in Japan. This place located at the second floor of the plaza in central Sawtelle. Very quiet, which I assumed that because people may not recognize that there is a good restaurant up here. I came here because I found that they have one of the dish I really like, that dish is called Doria. Doria is a backed curry rice topped with meat and bechamel sauce and cheese, here at Midoh have the dish I want and it didn't disappointed me. The flavored of the curry rice with seafood along with corn soup and the salad they gave me has fulfilled my day! I really wish more people visit this place because I really think this restaurant is worth to try out.

I've been to Midoh Sawtelle on two occasions now, each time for a weekend lunch. Midoh is located on the second floor of a small plaza with parking available for those eating there or visiting adjacent stores. We were always one of only two groups of patrons, so we never had to wait to be seated. It has very abundant natural lighting and offers a quiet escape the hustling and bustling Sawtelle downstairs. The menu has a lot of pictures to reference :) Once we ordered, we were served a cabbage salad appetizer. I have now tried their mentai seafood udon, seafood doria, and carbonara udon. All are very rich and creamy. The seafood doria does leave a coating of oil in your mouth though. Nothing to cut the oil either, but it's delicious otherwise. The udon dishes are both seasoned well! Overall, I would order all my dishes again. They were good, and I have not one but two friends who love coming here when they're in LA. Thanks Midoh!

This place is a hidden game, but stands out even among Sawtelle's many delicious restaurants. I honestly think its the cleanest, freshest spot you could go and get a great, filling meal in Sawtelle. The food came out quickly but did not lack in quality. I had the Nabeyaki Udon and my girlfriend had the Mentaiko Udon. The service was great and the environment was fun with great lighting. There's an option of outdoor seating that overlooks Sawtelle and offers a quiet but pleasant outdoor experience. 10/10 would come again.

Oh my! So good. You must try the Chicken Katsu with Spicy Curry Sauce and White Rice. 5/5. Absolutely amazing! Boyfriend had this for lunch, and I was jealous of his dish. However, I had the Udon with Chicken and a large Tempura Shrimp. It was wonderful. The broth was hot and very flavorful, and the noodles were soft and slurpy. Also 5/5. Our lunches came with a nice salad with a citrusy dressing, and boyfriend had a terrific creamy corn soup. This place is an overlooked gem on Sawtelle. It was not crowded at all, at 11:45 am on a Saturday. Super clean place with fast, friendly service. I'm coming back for the Katsu!

had the curry w/ Hamburg steak - came with a nice salad and yummy corn soup. this place is very cozy and the food tastes homey, hits the spot! :)

The mentai seafood udon is absolutely phenomenal!! I loved the shrimp and squid that complimented the noodles very well. The udon was cooked to perfection. The tofu salad was amazing too, the tofu blocks were super thick. The dressing was so tasty. 10/10!

The cozy ambiance, with Japanese music playing in the background, sets the perfect tone for your dining experience. Now, let's talk about the star of the show - the tonkatsu. From its golden, crispy exterior to its tender, juicy interior, every bite of MIDOH's tonkatsu is pure bliss. The pork cutlet is expertly breaded and fried to perfection, resulting in a delightful crunch with each bite. And the best part? It's not greasy at all, which speaks volumes about the chef's skill and attention to detail. But it's not just about the tonkatsu itself; it's the accompanying sides and sauces that elevate the dish to another level. The cabbage is fresh and crisp, providing a refreshing contrast to the richness of the tonkatsu. And let's not forget about the tangy tonkatsu sauce and the fragrant Japanese rice - they complement the tonkatsu flawlessly, creating a harmonious medley of flavors that dance on your palate. Comes with a bowl of miso soup too!

A great spot for some Asian food staples!! Friend and I came by after work for an early, casual dinner and it was practically empty. They do have parking in this plaza (for a small fee I believe) but I opted to park on the street just a block away. They have SO many options here that sound great but I opted for the Japanese Spicy Curry with Beef. The curry wasn't very spicy but was packed with flavor, and they did not skimp on the beef. It also came with additions like Corn Soup and a side salad. The Corn Soup was probably my favorite part of the meal -- so good and creamy! Overall, a pretty good amount of food for the cost.

Midoh is Japanese comfort food! We decided to just walk around the complex and I was fascinated by the fake food. The portions here are generous and nothing has left us unsatisfied yet. Our first time trying Midoh we got the mixed katsu set and the omurice. I personally like the sweet savory flavors of the Omurice even the rice itself was mixed with curry seasoning. I got it with the demi-glacé sauce which I was surprisingly obsessed with! Can't wait to go back and try the Hamburg with the demi-glacé sauce. Of all the katsu types, we enjoyed the pork katsu best. I was also pleasantly surprised by the corn potage soup!! My lactose intolerance does not agree with it but I wish I could order a large serving of the corn potage every time haha The inside of the shop is surprisingly large and was mostly empty for a weekday lunch or early weekend dinner. It's filling, cozy, and scrumptious if that's what you're looking for!

We love their Mentai Seafood Udon! The sauce is so creamy and flavorful. It is also a good portion for the price. It comes with their house salad (delicious dressing) and soup (miso or corn). We always get their corn soup and it is so good! Their chicken karaage is also very good - crunchy and flavorful. They also have curry meals and other udon pasta dishes. Servers are nice but sometimes there is only one server and they do get busy so sometimes might take long to get their attention or to checkout.

Food: I ordered Curry rice with Hamburg Steak- It comes with salad and corn soup. I also ordered takoyaki. I really enjoyed the side dishes and takoyaki very much. The curry had good spice taste to it the meat however, was good but not Amazing. I would come back to try the other dishes as they all look delicious! Service : Excellent, friendly and quick. Ambiance : Dim lighting, casual and relaxing.

Food was great! I would say it's an authentic modern Japanese food restaurant. Only thing I want to mention is that all tasted strong. Nothing was mild. Although it's not a complain, I wanted to leave my comment for others.

Midoh is SO good but honestly underrated! We walked in for dinner on Sunday night and were seated immediately - there's never a wait here (which is great but also makes me sad since they deserve more customers). They also have a (paid) parking lot underneath the plaza. Service was very fast - our food and drinks came out quickly and were DELICIOUS! I loved their katsu loin, it was perfectly juicy and crispy, as well as well-priced for the amount of food you get (it comes with a soup, rice, sauce, cabbage salad, and potato salad). My boyfriend also enjoyed their udon, thinking it comparable to (if not better than) Marugame. Overall, I really enjoyed my experience here! Love the vibes and the casual atmosphere :))

Definitely eating here again!!! Ambiance: very casual. The tables are quite spaced out which I liked. They have booths, tables, and counter seating (like with the high chairs). Service: great! our server in particular was super nice. He answered all our questions, gave his opinions, and checked in on us. Food: Delicious! Being Japanese and having just come back from Japan, I've been craving some authentic Katsu. Despite the way the inside looks (Americanized), I was surprised by the food. They give you a bowl with sesame seeds which you grind yourself and mix with the tonkatsu sauce (exactly how it's like in Japan). Their miso soup was good but I definitely prefer the corn soup since it was very different and flavorful. Though traditional Katsu meals are with miso soup. We had the Mix Fried and Loin/Fillet Meals. Very reasonable price for the amount of food. The fillet was probably our least favorite (though not bad), just a little meaty since it was so thick and not as tender as the fillet. Not too much breading and very tender meats. We had a good amount of leftovers left! (You can eat them normally but I recommend making it into Katsudon [sweet egg bowl] on top of rice since it's a different way/flavor to eat Katsu). Couldn't upload all my photos but they also have a page of additional sides and dessert.

I had a fantastic experience at Midoh. The food was absolutely delicious, and the service was nice . The restaurant was impeccably clean, which added to the overall enjoyment of the meal. Plus, the huge selection on the menu ensured there was something for everyone. Highly recommend!

Parking is free 1 hr only. Not loud or crowded Salad and miso soup is good Corn soup is good. Menai udon creamy so too filling for Kim but good Great service Try bento deal Tuesday to Friday

Wow this place is so delicious! Every single dish we ordered was yummy. Restaurant was actually pretty busy for a Thursday night, and I can see why! The wait staff was nice. Great place in Sawtelle! Price was reasonable for the amount of food you are getting. Only thing is you gotta pay for parking if you stay for more than an hour.

I ordered the hamburg steak with shrimp and cheese. Then, being who I am, I got a scoop of potato salad and sausages... not too smart. I completely underestimated how much food the steak plate would be. (Came with fries and carrots) and the side salad and corn soup AND rice lol... it was all delicious. The demi glace was quite rich and complimented the hamburg perfectly. The potato wedges were hot and crispy. Pro tip: The bottom wedges have that extra crunch from the hot plate. The potato salad was so good. It was creamy and perfect textures. To be fair all the food was good lol. The service was cool. They did not overdo it on the check-ins, which I like. Gives me time to actually eat. Fast service and quick kitchen turnaround for us. The ambiance is definitely simple and yet artistic. The ceiling was super cool, and my friend geeked out over the anime figures that line the cieling lol. It's definitely a place to go for something filling, and you won't leave hungry, that's for sure.

Very yummy food at a very reasonable price! We somehow always go during the down times of this restaurant so we got to have the whole place to us.

i was looking for a casual but delicious spot to end a long day and curry sounded like just the thing to do that. we parked on the street and headed up the stairs to Midoh on an early Saturday evening. there weren't too many people inside so we got seated promptly I ordered the curry udon and we also got the pork katsu and curry with Hamburg steak. The curry udon was absolutely delectable - the chewiness of the noodles with the rich warmth of the broth fulfilled all my cravings and just made me feel so good inside! pork katsu was thick and the pork was moist with a thin crisp exterior. good to split but not something I would order just for myself. service was fast and prompt. i'm a fan // IG: @stephiesmunchiez

Midoh is my favorite restuarant in Sawtelle and I've been here countless times. It's such a reliable spot and a great place to introduce to friends. Even during peak dinner hours, the wait time is usually little to none because of its ample seating inside. If weather permits, I always choose to sit on the patio. My go-to order is their spicy curry with tonkatsu loin. Their house curry is so hearty and the perfect level of spice. I also love their omurice with demiglaze - it's just the perfect comfort meal. I've tried many other items on their menu but always find myself coming back to these two! Service is always fast and attentive, the food is very authentic and the restaurant is a relaxing space to dine. I always enjoy eating here and would recommend it to anyone in the area!

Potato Salad is so fresh $10 (5/5) Beef Tongue $38 (3.5/5) sweet and savory but not worth the cost

We went here for a weekday lunch with friends right around opening. They have both indoor and outdoor patio seating. It was not crowded during our visit. Service was attentive and our food came out pretty quickly after ordering. I ordered the weekday lunch bento box (~$18) which was a huge portion and very filling. It came with a variety of fried tempura (shrimp, fish and possible oyster?), small Hamburg steak, veggies, potato salad, potato wedges and rice. The box kept me full all day. My partner got the spicy curry with pork cutlet, which he also finished. It's a bit pricy but I think the quality and portion size are worth it. Parking available in the shared garage downstairs, free around lunch time but I think becomes paid or needs validation in the afternoon when the stores are busier.

Great food and service for the price. Plenty of seating and validated parking in the lot. The restaurant is on the second floor on the right side. Good for a chill lunch or dinner to talk with friends! Only issue I had was their booth seating which has no support and was difficult to sit on.

This is such a hidden gem in Sawtelle! The items are well fried and go well with the tokotsu sauce and curry sauce. The tartar salad and mash potato are refreshing, complimenting the oily food really well. It's my first time having to grind sesame seeds for my tonkatsu sauce in America, and I wish more restaurants do that to provide authentic experiences to diners. The service is ok. The ambiance is nice and cozy. One thing I have to point out is that the ingredients to the fried stuff are not exactly the right parts or fresh. The tonkatsu is more of a gray and dark pork meat inside instead of white meat. Maybe they didn't drain the blood completely. One or two oysters also tastes a little stale. However, overall it's a great place and I'll come back for different food

I was really excited to try omurice for the first time but this place let me down. The Koshikatsu has a weird taste and texture to it and the omurice was just ok. It might have been better if it came with more curry but it was at least pretty filling. The fries that came with it was surprisingly the best part but it was something that is just frozen and fried anyway. The serve was at least very friendly and very quick and it wasn't busy at all on a Saturday night. It's a very casual ambiance, nothing fancy as it has the feel of a food court.

Located upstairs in an unassuming strip mall. I was surprised that we were the only customers the entire time we were there on a Sunday night because the food was really good! I ordered the Spicy Curry with topping add-on of Tonkotsu Loin for around $21. The Curry was as expected for Japanese curry, really flavorful and with a little bit of a kick. Yoh have the option to go for mild spice but they don't have no spice as an option. The Tonkotsu was soo juicy and delicious! I've never had such a crispy yet oozing juices katsu before. Perfect to dip in the curry, and the rice was cooked well. The entree also came with a small salad and choice of miso soup or corn chowder. I opted for the corn chowder which had a strong corn flavor - I really enjoyed it! The service was great and really friendly, and I'd definitely come back if I were craving Japanese curry and katsu. Would love to try their omurice next time as well!

It's a nicely price set lunch, salad, miso soup, main entree and a few sides. I tried the curry and it was pretty good. service was quick and bathrooms were clean. I feel they get a steady stream of diners, but it's never packed. I wouldn't mind coming here again to try their extensive menu.

I ordered the curry udon and it was delicious! The udon noodles were yummy and the soup had a little bit of a kick to it. It stayed pretty warm the whole time too. The worker gave us leftover bread pudding and said it was on the house too! The bread pudding was delicious and had just the right amount of sweetness.

Ordered food to go for the first time and enjoyed the food so much we had to go again but this time dine in. The customer service there was great, we got the same Saw the menu and realized we had the same waitress from the day before. Love the space and relaxing ambiance this place has! I HIGHLY recommend the Menchi Katsu as a quick bite, the Gyu-Tan Steak goes well with thw Omrice. HIGHLY recommend corn soup over the miso. Usually dont like corn soups but this one is it. We ended up pouring it in with thw bowl of rice. 5/5 would recommend!

The curry was rich and flavorful. The staff was kind and the menu was large. I enjoyed the area to because there is so much to do. It's a shame that som people may never know this place excist because it's on the top floor of the plaza.

pork tonkatsu loin was super yummy and comes with a side of corn or miso soup. felt like good value too! they also have some outdoor seating on the balcony

I feel like Midoh often gets overlooked among the amazing options in Sawtelle. There's so much to like about it from the diverse menu to the lack of crowds and needing a reservation. It's a super casual spot perfect for small or large groups. The service is usually super friendly and quick. It's in a shopping center and kinda hidden so be sure to go out of your way to try it. Note that they are closed on Mondays. Now to the food, we started out with the monthly special gyozas which were so crispy and delicious. They came with a sauce and we're the perfect start to our meal. However I came for my favorite curry udon. There's so much flavor in the broth and the beef is nice and tender. The udon noodles are cooked perfectly and I just wanted to finish the entire thing including all of the broth. It's something I don't find everywhere and will happily order it every time I'm here. I do want to try more things so I'll be back. I would suggest avoiding the area for parking. Just find a spot in the adjacent neighborhoods and walk over as it gets super busy in the area.

I really like Midoh. The tonkatsu is better than other places around and the portions are good. I recommend the tonkatsu on their menu particularly as its most similar to stuff I've had in Japan. The service is also good although it gets hectic during peak hours. The only complaint I'd say is that the ambiance is a bit outdated and not so comfy. Could use a makeover.

Guess who still loves Midoh? It's this bish. The mentai seafood udon is so tasty and absolutely one of my favorite things on the menu. The balance of bouncy udon noodles and creamy seafood sauce along with a hefty portion of seafood? Perfect! Also tried their kaarage collab with anothe restaurant that was wonderfully tasty as well! Their backseat patio area has a great view and is a great place to dine!

I highly recommend the katsu here! It seems like it's their bread and butter. Others in my group got the udon pasta, but those dishes were subpar.

This is in the old Curry House space next to Nijiya Market. The food is kinda hit or miss. The pork katsu can be ordered lean or fatty. The lean was super dry the two times I had it. The cow tongue was good but expensive. I ordered it after watching Grand Maison Tokyo on Netflix and it didn't meet expectations. They have a large menu of Japanese dishes so worth a try
