While Singapore is home to many Tonkatsu eateries, Gyu Katsu remains a rather unique offering in the local dining scene. It came as a pleasant surprise that GyuSei is already well-known among the Muslim community, as the steakhouse gradually filled up not long after our arrival. The steady crowd speaks for itself, highlighting its growing popularity, especially for those seeking a halal-friendly wagyu katsu experience.

We went for the A5 Ribeye Set, which comes as a well-rounded meal with free-flow rice, shredded cabbage salad, and miso soup. It also includes an umami-rich onsen egg that adds an extra layer of indulgence to the experience, making the set both satisfying and complete.

I was amazed by the presentation the A5 Striploin Beef Cutlet beautifully arranged on a palette, accompanied by shredded cabbage, potato salad, and 12 condiments thoughtfully placed around it for a complete tasting experience.

We enjoyed grilling the cut on the hot stone, lightly searing it to our preferred doneness while the fats slowly melted, enhancing its rich flavour.

The A5 ribeye beef was presented in a similar style, with evenly sliced pieces that were noticeably longer than the cutlet, offering a more generous bite.

The ribeye beef katsu was impressively long almost matching the length of the square sizzling plate on the stove, making it a standout both in portion and presentation.

Agedashi tofu, lightly battered and crisp on the outside, paired with ponzu radish, bonito flakes, negi, and nori for a delicate balance of savoury and umami flavours.
