Popular Chicken to Try

chicken curry with green salad (to go)

$15.00

Japanese chicken curry served with a green salad.

“I came here a few years back and ordered the chicken curry. It was one of the best curries I’ve ever had. Tonight I came back and ordered everything that sounded good to me. The chicken curry was a 10/10 of course. The chicken Karage was so flavorful and perfectly fried. The beef skewers were packed with flavor and HELLA tender. Everyone here was really nice and you could tell even the people dining were here for a good time and good food. I didn’t take a picture of everything I ate, but here’s that beautiful Karage.”

Meatball

$4.75

Japanese chicken meatball made with ground chicken.

“Please visit for a great, laid back meal. Such a fun vibe in the restaurant. It's small with music playing (The Cure when I was there) and you're basically in the kitchen. It's all small plates so you can try everything. I recommend the scallops, beets, and chicken meatball.”

Thigh with Citrus Pepper

$4.50

Chicken thighs topped with yuzu kosho citrus-chile paste.

“OMG, this restaurant is an absolute treasure and HANDS DOWN my new favorite restaurant in Ventura County. Owner Yukari is very gracious and knowledgeable as all of her skewers (vegetable, chicken, and beef) and salads are not only seasoned/marinated to absolute perfection, but presented with artistry that only a true master chef is able to achieve. Please do not hesitate to give Gotetsu a try as it is an experience that you won't find anywhere else.”
