About this place
Some diners return to Tonsui again and again for its katsudon. The egg-bound pork cutlet bowl is said to stand out for its sweet-and-savoury sauce, making it a classic set-meal-style dish to enjoy with rice. Another diner praised the flavour of the cutlet and its seasoning, and enjoyed it with white-miso soup.
For fried dishes, the choices include loin and fillet cutlet set meals, as well as cheese katsu and minced-pork cutlet set meals. One diner described the cheese katsu as having a light, crisp coating and a juicy centre. Some diners find the main dish portion just right; if you would like something extra, consider adding a side such as grated daikon with nameko mushrooms, blanched spinach or chilled tofu.
The à la carte menu also offers easy-going choices such as Japanese-style omelette, meat and tofu simmered together, and stir-fried garlic chives. They pair well with beer or sake for a leisurely evening meal. Choose a set meal, or have katsudon with a small side: the wide selection of set meals and accompanying dishes makes it easy to follow your appetite that day.
