Chiba, Japan｜Tonkatsu Shinjuku Saboten Perie Chiba

Solo lunch at this place was awesome. Not sure why there’s so many bad reviews. I had a really pleasant experience, there was a very short wait for the staff to clean the table and i was quickly served with the english menu. Waiters was always nearby to call for help if needed and they tried to accommodate me as best as they can. The oolong tea was served along with the sesame seeds. After some grinding the waitress brought over a huge fresh pile of salad that tasted really good with the dressing. After adding the tonkatsu sauce to the sesame the main highlight arrived. 150g of Sabo Red with a very light and not oily crust and crumbs that were poking the sky arrived. Each bite bursted with juice and flavor of the amazing meat. It tastes even better with the sauce and rice combined with the salad. The miso was delightful to wash the meal down and they were several pieces of mushrooms in it which is quite generous. One of the best i’ve had in a long time and highly recommend. Would go again with friends. If you have time to kill in the station or area, try this place out!

This place was super cute! The atmosphere is relaxing after riding the train. Food and service great. No English. Easy to understand menu Great photographic interior Relaxing atmosphere

Good quality katsu. Good for a quick bite as well as a quiet lunch.
