Minato City, Tokyo, Japan｜Masamune

Nice tonkatsu place. I like the atmosphere very casual local spot feeling. Counter seating is available I ordered the premium set which was a bit of a mistake because it was huge and probably 2000 calories. I thought the meal was going to be huge when the chef put it on the drying rack until he gave that to another customer and put my one on which was even bigger 🗿. Tasted good though I recommend not getting the most premium cut unless you're very hungry though. Was able to get seated right away at opening time on a Monday night, line built up quickly though.

Very kind staff with English menu accommodations. We opted for the thinner pork, as many other options sold out for the day. I was pleasantly surprised at how unbelievably tender the katsu was. They served us right before close and it was the perfect end to a wonderful day. Thank you for your hospitality!

This has always been my go to tonkatsu place whenever I’m in Tokyo. The meat patty is hand prep instead of frozen ones. Meat is juicy on the inside and usually you will expect a queue. But the queue is worth the wait because patrons will not take too long to finish a meal. Highly recommend while traveling in Tokyo at Akasaka area.
