Katsu-ya

If you choose the pork loin cutlet, its texture is worth noting. One diner who ordered the set meal praised the crisp coating and just-right frying. The menu lists the pork loin cutlet set meal at ¥1,100; for a thicker cut, the premium pork loin cutlet set meal is also available at ¥1,300. A diner who ordered the premium version described it as thick, juicy and pleasantly rich, with sweet-tasting fat. The fillet cutlet set meal is described on the menu as featuring a tender fillet cutlet, and comes with rice and miso soup. It offers a different cut from pork loin, and may appeal to those who value tenderness.

For a selection of fried dishes, there is a fillet and seafood set meal with a fillet cutlet, fried horse mackerel and fried squid, served with rice and miso soup. It pairs seafood with the pork cutlet rather than focusing on tonkatsu alone. One reviewer also enjoyed a service set meal piled with kushikatsu, croquettes, fried chicken and a mini hamburger steak. Another visit earned praise for the simmered cutlet set meal. If you are hoping to try one of these changing or special set meals, check what is available at the restaurant. The menu also lists curry, pork cutlet curry, prawn-fry curry and young chicken karaage curry, each served with salad and miso soup. They are options for combining fried dishes and curry in a different format from a set meal.

Alongside the lunchtime set meals, the evening drinks menu includes beer, sake and sour cocktails. Menu information lists one-go servings of Asahiyama and Ichinokura sake at ¥600 each, and Urakasumi at ¥650—a choice for enjoying a drink with fried dishes.
