01 / ABOUT THE PLACE

About this place

Choose katsu on its own or pair it with curry. Ars serves chicken katsu and chicken nanban set meals, as well as chicken katsu curry and loin katsu curry, with several ways to enjoy its fried dishes. Curry choices range from a plain curry rice to versions topped with chicken katsu or loin katsu, and a fried-chicken nanban curry. Some dishes are listed with a large rice option, making them worth considering if you want a substantial lunch.

For a rice bowl, the katsu, miso katsu and tare katsu bowls are all listed with a large rice option. The menu makes it easy to choose between a set meal and a bowl according to your appetite and mood. Diners describe Ars as a school-cafeteria-style spot centred on fried dishes such as katsu and fried chicken; some also mention the generous serving of shredded cabbage. One diner praised the miso soup, too, which could make a welcome addition to a set meal.

Dine-in is available, and the restaurant is described as suitable for solo meals. The listed weekday lunch hours are 11:30–13:30, so it is worth checking the menu when considering Ars for lunch.
