Epais Coup
An impossibly tiny 6-counter-seat tonkatsu restaurant, 1-min walk from JR Suita Station. Opened as a sister location of Kitashinchi's Michelin-listed 'epais,' it has been a beloved Suita institution for over 10 years. Carefully selected pork — including Koshu Fujizakura and Yamagata breeds — yields cutlets described as having 'unbelievable juiciness.' Tabelog 3.64/404 reviews, Yahoo! Maps 4.22. Consecutive selections for Tonkatsu 100 Best in 2022, 2024, and 2026.
