About this place
Choosing a particular pork brand is part of the appeal at Tonkatsu Mitani. The menu features loin and fillet from Miyazaki Brand Pork and certified Yamagata pork, with loin available in 150g and 200g portions. You might choose by origin, or decide between loin and fillet first. If it is your first visit, settling on a portion size before comparing the pork options may help you find the set meal that suits you.
Diners who tried the loin from Hosoya no Marubuta have praised its sweet, light fat and flavoursome lean meat; some also enjoyed it with salt. Some chose the 150g set, while others ordered 200g and were surprised by the size, so portion choice may make a difference to how satisfying the meal feels. One option is to try the meat with salt first, then move on to the sauce.
If you cannot settle on a single kind of cutlet, consider a set combining natural flower prawns fried in breadcrumbs with bite-sized fillet, or one that adds a menchi katsu, a minced-meat cutlet. There is also a set with 75g of Miyazaki Brand Pork loin, 1 bite-sized fillets and 30g of menchi katsu—a straightforward way to compare different pork cuts.
Counter seating is available, making the restaurant suitable for dining alone. The listing states that payment is cash only.
