What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

A tonkatsu specialty shop opened in 2022 by the team behind a popular Sendai izakaya. Uses Tohoku brand pork (Iwanaka from Iwate, Mochi-pork from Miyagi), slow-fried in a blend of lard and rice oil. U-shaped counter seating only. Queues form before opening. Google 4.6/268 reviews, ranked 2nd in Miyagi tonkatsu ranking (April 2025).

Google 4.6/268 reviews. Many say 'tender and rich in flavor' and 'you can tell the difference of Tohoku brand pork.' Even on weekdays expect a wait. Numerous personal SNS posts.
