Toshima City, Tokyo, Japan｜Shimizuya

The restaurant I went to for the first time in Japan, the taste is superb! The old lady in the store is very kind, the proprietress is very enthusiastic, and the business is booming. Go early at noon, or you will have to queue. The pork chops are fried just right, and the sauce becomes delicious! Don't miss it if you want to experience authentic Japanese tonkatsu!

A hidden gem near ikebukuro station. Huge portions, great taste, and warm hospitality. Come hungry.

Excellent tonkatsu in a retro atmosphere. The portion is massive and the cutlet itself is succulent. The tonjiru side is also delicious.
