I was on the way home from work and I was so hungry. The big sign on the wall with a picture of a pig holding a knife/sword was what made me decide to try Mr. Tonkatsu out.
I ordered the pork loin tonkatsu (comes with cabbage salad, miso soup, tonkatsu sauce and rice). I was amazed that the server gave me sesame seeds to crush so that I can use it to put on my green tea or pork loin tonkatsu.
Cabbage salad is just salad but I loved that salad dressing they had for it. The Miso soup did not taste as if it was microwaved and rice is just rice . So when I tried the pork loin tonkatsu it was pretty good. It was crunchy on the outside and tender on the inside. I had a good meal and the portion size was decent but kinda small for $16.00 that is including my green tea.
The service was ok but the staff did not check up on me and ask if everything was going well. Although the waitress who brought me food apologized for the wait for my food (8 minutes). I kind of felt ignored but there were 3 families in the restaurant.
So will be returning to Mr. Tonkatsu? The answer is no. It didn't really make a good impression on me. You can get cheaper tonkatsu meal options at Japanese restaurants. The only thing I liked was the plating and the decor at the restaurant. I mean it doesn't hurt to try it out but I thought I would just share my opinion . Thanks for reading.
