I've long searched for the best tonkatsu in Singapore. This is the best so far. Panko crumbs are delicious. The tonkatsu is the least oily I've had. The meat is very tender. Ma Maison or Saboten should learn a thing or two on how to make great tonkatsu. Update July 2018: menu changed, you're now sitting with the bar crowd. Loud environment, less menu options but same price. At $30 I shouldn't be putting up with bar surroundings. I couldn't get myself to order food. Management, what have you done?!

I would have given it a ‘Zero Star’ rating if it was available! My family used to like tonkichi katsu and had always visited tonkichi whenever we craved for tonkatsu. But today the restaurant has failed miserably in living up to its name. We ordered ebi fry and rosu katsu set, and hire and rosu katsu set. The prawns were small and tasted only thick flour layer. The worst was the pork katsu itself, it was stinky (クセ) on first bite, and the longer we chewed on the stronger the odd taste lingered in our mouth. We could hardly swallow the pork katsu, and finally had to leave the food unfinished. First time ever that happened with my family. What happened to the fragrant pork katsu that we used to enjoy at Tonkichi, with an aroma of sesame seeds and tenderness of pork? What happened to the pride of quality and tradition? Frankly quite a disappointment, and would never return again. The management is fully responsible for being down the restaurant! ガッカリ😞😡

Good quality pork, very tender and the service is great, might be a little more expensive for lunch, but definitely worth it for the quality.

Martin is a cheerful staff with genuine attitude & good PR. Reservations required especially on Friday evenings. Will like to try out the Asian fusion buffet on Sunday at 3pm (S $50.00 ++ per pax.)

Tonkichi was really great back when it was on B1, before the Suntec renovation. At the end of last year it newly opened on the 1st floor of Tower4, and I happened to drop by, but I'm so disappointed. I've been going to Tonkichi, including Taka Tonkichi, for almost 20 years, and not once has the rice ever been bad. Here at the Suntec branch, who knows how many days old the rice was, I could barely eat it, and judging by the size and condition of the fried shrimp, it's almost 100% certain they used frozen products. The tonkatsu was also in much worse shape than at other branches.... The prices seem to be about 10 - 15% cheaper than other branches, but if it were me, I'd pay full price and go to another branch, this place is really a no. It's been a long time since I felt upset after eating out, somehow it feels like I got scammed.
