I've eaten at restaurants all over the world. It isn't often I have the kind of food experience you can get at Tokizo. It's small menu take out, so it has to clear a high bar with its food, and Tokizo delivers. We had the karaage chicken and the pork and shrimp katsu combo. Folks, this was the most tender and flavorful chicken with a delicious side sauce, cucumber salad, and half crispy sushi roll on the side. It's a huge amount of food, and would leave the biggest eater satisfied. The combo featured crispy panko fried pork which was so juicy and tender, and several large panko fried shrimp. There was a nice katsu sauce and cucumber salad with that combo and half crispy roll. Both dishes came with rice. The presentation was beautiful and thoughtful, with fresh shredded cabbage, cherry tomatoes, and lemon wedges to brighten the heaviness of the fried foods. The owner was pleasant and cheerful, and gave us a loyalty card with a few stamps already filled in. Free karaage if you get 20 stamps! My family is going to try! We will sample the udon dishes, next time. Though it will be hard not to order one of the fried dishes again. They're just that good.
