About this spot
Tonkyu delivers a crispy, golden pork cutlet experience that cuts through the noise of Ikebukuro with its single-minded focus on quality. While the menu highlights an extensive drink list including Draft Beer and Cold Sake, the real star is the thick-cut tonkatsu served with their signature tartare sauce. Locals flock here for the satisfying crunch that pairs perfectly with a small draft beer or a glass of cold sake.
š” Tips before you go
- Order the Single Menu Menti (1 piece) if you want to sample the cutlet without committing to a full set meal.
- Pair your pork cutlet with their Draft Beer, which is priced affordably at 530 yen for a refreshing contrast to the rich meat.
- Try the Fried Shrimp (1 tail) as a side dish if you want to test the kitchen's frying technique beyond just the pork.
