Kyatchi - Saint Paul

Only place in town that has Japanese style bread/sandwiches! Yakisoba Dog tastes great, especially the rich Mayo. Tonkatsu uses pork shoulder and is very flavorful. Great service too! So no nice. They don't accept tips, that is a plus too. Their service is on point.

Very cute place and the food was good but portions are really small for the price. the yakisoba was too salty for me and the portion was way too small, probably the size of a man's fist. the ebi maki roll was just too small for the price.

The ramen was particularly tasty and the tea was delicious too. I liked how the pork in the ramen had a good char to it. Definitely added to the ramen's flavor complexity!

Paid $17 for a a finger of whisky but it was definitely more like a teaspoon of whisky. Had sushi and onigiri and the rice was dry and hardly seasoned at all. Paid $13 for a 6 piece maki roll that Target could've done just as well. Everything was way too expensive and the food was not nearly worth the price.

If you're wondering whether not not to go to the Minneapolis or St. Paul location--don't go to the St. Paul location. We walked into a half filled restaurant at 6:30 and were told it would be a 45 min wait at first and then an hour and a half. We sucked it up and made an online reservation for later and returned. We're regulars at the MPLS location so expected a similar experience but it was worlds apart. The menus were not up to date, the staff was inattentive and at times rude, and there were many menu items unavailable. Our party of four felt like a huge inconvenience to the staff the entire time. Major fail.
