About this spot
Tucked near Asakusa Station, Tonkatsu Yutaka serves up the neighborhood's crispiest pork cutlets without the tourist trap pretension. The Fillet Cutlet Set delivers a tender, golden-brown loin that melts in your mouth, while the seasonal Oyster Fritter Set offers a briny crunch if you visit between October and March. Locals pack this spot for its generous portions of shredded cabbage and pickled ginger that perfectly cut through the rich fried batter.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order the Pork Cutlet Set and request to swap your rice or cabbage once for free to customize your meal.
- Try the Shiozake (salted cod) as a starter if you want something lighter before diving into the heavy cutlets.
- Arrive early for lunch to avoid the rush, as the single-dish Shinshinko is a quick favorite among office workers.
