Without a doubt, the best meal we ate this week was the chicken katsu don rice bowl from Yuzu Kitchen. The dish features crispy, thin strips of chicken katsu drenched in a rich, flavorful curry sauce on a bed of fluffy white rice. The side slaw salad is the perfect cool and creamy companion to this fragrant, spicy dish.

In the heart of Downtown Pittsburgh, Yuzu Kitchen is making waves as a Japanese restaurant that boldly sticks to its roots - in both cuisine and sustainability. This restaurant puts its principles into practice through meticulous waste reduction and community-minded sourcing.
