What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

Founded 1926 — the originator of Kiryu-style Sauce Katsu-don. Thin, crispy Gunma pork fillet (hire) fried and glazed in a sweet-savory Worcestershire sauce over rice. No cabbage — that's the Kiryu way. Available in 4, 6, or 8 cutlets from ¥900. The soul food of Kiryu.

Tabelog 3.48 (359 reviews). 'Classic, unfussy taste you never tire of.' 'Affordable enough for weekly visits.' 'Always stop here when in Kiryu.' Official site confirmed updated July 2025 holiday schedule — currently operating normally.
