An exquisite tonkatsu restaurant that evokes the charm of the Showa era
Founded in 1930, Isen Honten is a historic restaurant known for its tender tonkatsu that can be cut with chopsticks. The interior exudes a traditional Japanese atmosphere, allowing guests to feel as if they've traveled back in time to the Showa period. The softness of the hirekatsu and the delicious miso soup are particularly praised, making it a comfortable place for solo diners. The complimentary cabbage and rice are a delightful service, and many patrons vow to return to this renowned establishment.
