Shinagawa City, Tokyo, Japan｜Gambari-tei

If you want tonkatsu, you should definitely come visit this place. The place is not big but is popular among local people. The restaurant pays a lot of attention to details and the food they present. For example: They use premium pork and the soup you get with set menu is 豚汁, which is an iconic dish for Japanese (radish, carrot, sliced pork and miso). Usually if you go to other tonkatsu place, the soup is ordinary miso soup with tofu inside. Their 豚汁 is really so delicious. And also they make their own sauce for cabbage and it is really impressive. The sauce is a little bit garlicky (versus most of the place use ready-to-eat salad sauce and it's a bit too sweet and have no soul). I will definitely come to this place again!

So popular with local customers due to their selected ingredients and the skillful cook even under Covid 19 epidemic. The taste deserves the price. Only cash is acceptable.

It's so delicious. Nothing special, just delicious. The staff are also kind. I didn't force myself to give it to him, but when I took it home, he kindly told me the temperature to give it to, the direction to cut it, etc. A store you'll be happy to have nearby.
