Kanda Ponchiken

Excellent pork katsu. Loved the ebi with their own delicious tartare sauce.
Their miso soup is so tasty with bits of meat

Shame we had to wait 1.30 hours to get in... wish they had been clearer with waiting time expectations!

Solid 8.5 out of 10. It’s delicious, fried to perfection. It’s the second best katsu I have had so far in Japan. Being able to have your katsu with various sauces and salt is pretty cool. Being able to order fried seafood ala cart is also a cool bonus. This restaurant is listed on the MICHELIN guide’s bib gourmand. Wouldn’t expect any less.

Ponchiken restaurant is an absolute delight, with savory, flavorful dishes bursting with freshness, served up in a cozy, welcoming atmosphere. The friendly staff and impeccable service make every visit a true pleasure, and the attention to detail throughout the menu and ambiance truly sets this eatery apart. Overall, Ponchiken restaurant is an exceptional dining destination that is sure to leave a lasting impression on diners of all tastes and preferences.
