I ordered it because I wanted to try the pork cutlet. It arrived safely without thawing!

It has the least smell and tastes the best among all the pork cutlets.
K.......
This is my second purchase, and this is the best pork cutlet. The meat inside is a bit small, but it was cooked just right, so I really enjoyed it.

I like that the portion looks bigger than I expected.

Air fried vs. deep fried. I think you know which one was deep fried
Ling
I hope it tastes good.

The pork cutlet is fried perfectly and tastes great.

I bought this because the reviews were good. Eating out has gone up so much lately that a pork cutlet usually costs $16 plus a tip, making it about $20, but for $10, two people had a very satisfying meal. I tried frying it in both an air fryer and in oil; the oil-fried version was crispier, but the air fryer one was tender and good. I would repurchase this.
Ukey
The package contained 3 pieces of pork cutlets. They were covered with big fresh bread crumbs- better than store bought bread crumbs. I would buy again- fyi bread crumbs are easy to make but what type of bread we use is important to make good Tonkatsu.

The Korean tonkatsu sauce was sold out, so I bought it instead.
Pumpkin4ny
I thought Otafuku Sauce was an okonomiyaki sauce, so I didn't know they also made tonkatsu sauce, so this was my first purchase. It's a relatively light sauce, but has a fruity and mild flavor. I thought it was helpful that there were instructions on how to make tonkatsu on the back of the package.
