What kind of place?
Fake reviews removed

Est. 1941. A nostalgic diner a 3-minute walk from JR Wakayama Station. Though technically a soba shop, the tonkatsu set meal ranks #1 on Google Reviews for Wakayama tonkatsu (4.4 stars / 549 reviews). The pork cutlet extends beyond the plate — a generous, old-school portion. Omurice, ramen, and fried rice round out the Showa-era retro menu.

'Shocked by the size for just ¥1,000.' 'Tonkatsu smothered in demi-glace sauce is incredible.' 'Been coming here for over 50 years.' 'A one-of-a-kind diner preserving the Showa atmosphere.' 'Topping Wakayama tonkatsu rankings is well-deserved.'
