とんかつ和幸 匠庵 伊勢丹新宿

Tonkatsu Wako Takumian is the upmarket brand of the long-established Tonkatsu Wako chain, located on the 7th floor of the iconic Isetan Shinjuku department store within its Eat Paradise dining floor. The Takumian brand represents the chain's highest tier, focusing on premium pork sourced from specific farms across Japan, including the renowned Kurobuta and RYUKA brands. This commitment to ingredient provenance sets Takumian apart from standard tonkatsu restaurants in the Shinjuku area. Each cutlet is fried at precisely controlled temperatures to achieve a light, crisp batter that shatters cleanly while the pork inside remains juicy and tender. The menu features a range of fillet and loin options in various sizes, alongside set meals that include rice, miso soup, and finely shredded cabbage. The rice and cabbage are refillable, a generous touch that regulars appreciate. The tare sauce, developed over years of refinement, complements the pork without overwhelming it. The lunchtime queue can be substantial, a testament to the quality on offer. Isetan Shinjuku is a one-minute walk from Shinjuku-sanchome Station and five minutes from JR Shinjuku Station. The restaurant operates from 11:00 to 22:00 with last orders at 21:15, though hours may vary on irregular holidays. Being inside Isetan means the setting is polished and comfortable, ideal for a leisurely meal after shopping.
