This is a popular hamburger restaurant in Katsuragawa. I visited during late lunch time and had to wait for about 20 minutes because it was a holiday. The parking lot is quite spacious which is convenient. I had tried the spicy cod roe sauce before, so this time I opted for the cheese hamburger. The cheese hamburger comes with the restaurant's special hamburger sauce. When you stab the hamburger with your chopsticks, the juices overflow as usual. The hamburger sauce has a strong acidity from tomatoes and wine. It pairs well with the meat juices. The hamburger itself is delicious, so any sauce option would be a good choice.

This is Tokura-san‼️ a restaurant that often appears in the media✨ When you put your chopsticks into the plump hamburger, the meat juice flows out. This is the selling point‼️ It's famous, isn't it? The sauce is traditional and homey ketchup and Worcestershire sauce✨ It feels nostalgic and good, right?

Arrived at the restaurant 10 minutes before opening on a Sunday with my wife. Already, there were about 10 people waiting, indicating it's a popular place. There is a spacious waiting area next to the restaurant, which is interesting. We were soon seated. The floor was oily and slippery, so be careful. We ordered two 300g hamburger Western sets. If there's only a 20g difference in price, 300g is the obvious choice. First, salad and soup arrived. The soup was tasty but lukewarm. It's recommended to drink it quickly. Next, the hamburgers and bread arrived. When you cut into the hamburger, the juices overflow. It was fluffy and juicy, and tasted great with the bread. The lukewarm carrots were disappointing, but we finished our meal in no time. I noticed that despite having less than 30 seats, there were 5 staff members. They seemed idle. Only the person with glasses was working decently, the rest were chatting. 2 or at most 3 staff members would suffice to run the place. When customers left, we didn't hear any "thank you" or "please come again." Even when we said "it was delicious, thank you," they completely ignored us. All 5 staff members seemed idle and were just chatting. Even the person at the cash register didn't respond. I wonder about the service at a restaurant like this. If it's a place you frequent, you might be able to evaluate based solely on taste, but as a place you visit while traveling, the satisfaction, including service, at this price point feels high. They may be cutting corners by using pre-made dishes or not warming the plates properly, resulting in lukewarm food served by everyone except the person with glasses. However, the hamburger at Tokura was delicious. If I come to Kyoto again, I would like to eat it again, but at a different location. It was delicious. Thank you.

I arrived around 10:50 and parked my car in the parking lot, where I wrote my name and number of people to wait in line (there is a waiting room next to the restaurant). After the restaurant opened at 11:00, we were called in one by one. I was called in about 5 minutes after opening and managed to get a seat on the first round... It's a popular place. Due to its location, which is not easily accessible without a car, there are 13 parking spaces in two parking lots. I ordered the Original Hamburg Lunch 300g (1210 yen tax included). The overflowing meat juice made me hungry! I finished it all in no time (^^).

I visited Tokura in Katsura, Kyoto ^ ^ It's a must-visit restaurant for me whenever I go back to my hometown in Kyoto ^ ^ Highly recommended ^ ^ lol But be prepared to wait in line on weekdays and weekends because it's so popular! You can't make reservations for lunch, so I recommend going before they open! There is a main store in Katsura, and also branches in Fushimi and Osaka's Lucua! They are always crowded lol. This time, I went for lunch on a Saturday and even 10 minutes before opening, there were already about 10 groups waiting... (ｉ_ｉ) So I waited for about 30 minutes and finally got in! The menu I ordered today was: Daily Special Hamburger for 930 yen, and Hamburger and Shrimp Fry Lunch for 1320 yen with 150 grams. All hamburger lunches come with rice, miso soup, salad, and pickles. Today's daily special was fried horse mackerel! Tokura's hamburgers are famous for their juiciness! When you cut the hamburger with chopsticks, a huge amount of juice comes out! I've been here countless times, but it's always impressive! You can choose the size of the hamburger, so I think 180 grams is enough for women! The shrimp fry and daily special come with a side dish, so the hamburger is a bit smaller! It was very delicious ^ ^

I arrived at the restaurant parking lot around 12 o'clock and luckily found an empty space! I waited in line with 12 other groups, but was called in after about 30 minutes. The restaurant had 6 counter seats and some table seats. I was able to place my order while waiting, so I was seated as soon as I sat down!

I visited the restaurant around 8:00, just before closing time. The place was almost full, but luckily we were able to find seats right away. I usually only eat regular hamburgers or cheeseburgers when I go out with my mother, but this time we decided to be adventurous and ordered the Clam Chowder Hamburg to share. In the end, we both preferred the regular hamburgers, but the Clam Chowder sauce was delicious, with a rich clam flavor that complemented the hamburger well. We ended up ordering a total of 400g of hamburgers, along with a generous serving of rice, and an extra serving of rice. It was all very tasty and we enjoyed our meal without any trouble.

Overall rating: 3.8 Taste: 4.0 Service: 3.3 Atmosphere: 3.3 Cost performance: 4.5 Drinks: 4.0 Ordered items: Original 300g hamburger - 1,070 yen Japanese set - 220 yen Draft beer - 528 yen The hamburger was juicy and delicious, with the meat juice overflowing. It was clear that it was handmade with care, as the top and bottom were well cooked to seal in the juices. The staff also made an effort to remove air from the hamburger, which helped to enhance the juiciness. The only downside was that the miso soup tasted like instant soup.

Fluffy, juicy hamburg steak overflowing with meat juices~ About two months ago, I was thinking about how I would like to visit the main store in Kyoto if I had the chance. I had the opportunity to go to Kyoto and was able to visit this restaurant in a surprising turn of events. - Original Hamburg Steak Lunch 930 yen On top of the 180-gram hamburg steak is a generous amount of rich demi-glace sauce. When I gently split it with chopsticks, as expected, the meat juices flowed out. The hamburg steak is tender enough to be eaten with chopsticks, and the rice just kept disappearing. - Japanese-style Grated Hamburg Steak Lunch 1,260 yen I chose the 300-gram hamburg steak for this option. It has a refreshing taste. The lunch comes with rice, miso soup, and pickles. All prices are inclusive of tax. The waiting room next to the restaurant is air-conditioned and comfortable. Despite the restaurant's popularity, I only had to wait about 15 minutes to enter this time, which was very lucky.

It's always crowded. I think I waited in line for about 30 minutes. There are various types of hamburgers on the menu. Since it was my first time, I chose the standard one. A surprising amount of meat juice gushed out. The hamburger was very soft and fluffy. The sauce went well with the rice and it was delicious.

On Friday afternoon around 12 o'clock, I remembered that Tokura's lunch is a good deal on weekdays and decided to visit. The restaurant was quite full, so I had to wait for about 5-10 minutes. The waiting area was next to the dining area! I wonder if it gets crowded on weekends? I was seated at a table and ordered the hamburger and shrimp fry lunch set, feeling a bit extravagant. The waiter seemed like a seasoned older gentleman, while the kitchen staff preparing the hamburger appeared to be a veteran, and the person handling the salad seemed to be a part-time worker? It felt like the age group of the staff had become younger compared to my previous visit. There seemed to be enough staff, and the atmosphere was lively and pleasant. After a 10-minute wait, the eagerly awaited hamburger arrived. As soon as I put my chopsticks in, the juices from the meat overflowed. The tartar sauce for the shrimp fry also got drenched in the meat juices! Nevertheless, the hamburger was not greasy and had a fluffy texture. The shrimp fry was crispy and had a homemade feel to it. It's easy to see why this place is popular. I left feeling completely satisfied with the delicious lunch. Thank you for the meal ★

I was lucky to be able to get in easily around one o'clock on a weekday. There is a waiting area next to it, like a waiting room, so it seems to be crowded usually. It was my first visit, so I chose the standard hamburger. I could choose the size, so I went with the smaller one, which was plenty for a woman. As soon as I cut into it, the juices from the meat started to come out, making it a bit tricky to eat, but it was very delicious.

This store is so nostalgic☻♬ I usually come here for dinner, but this time I came for lunch for the first time◎▪️Cod roe mayonnaise hamburger▪️Western-style set The meat juice is overflowing and flowing out☻♬ The hamburger was very fluffy and the cod roe mayo did a great job, it was delicious. However, the bottom of the hamburger was burnt and tough, which was disappointing⤵︎ The sauce was less than before, so there wasn't much left. But because of the fluffy texture and meat juice that I can't easily replicate at home, I want to eat it again☻♬

I visited Tokura Katsura main store. This place is famous for its hamburgers. It is quite popular in Kyoto, and recently they have opened a store in Umeda's Lucua Osaka as well. There is a parking lot next to the restaurant. I visited around 12 pm on a Saturday, and there were about 10 groups waiting. There is a waiting room next to the restaurant, and benches outside, making it easy to wait. I ordered the Oroshi-so hamburger lunch with 300g, and the Ebi Fry hamburger lunch with cheese topping. They serve lunch on weekdays and Saturdays, which includes rice, miso soup, salad, and pickles. When you cut the hamburger with chopsticks, the meat juice overflows. The meat juice is amazing! It overflows the moment you cut it with chopsticks. This was the first time I've had a hamburger with so much meat juice overflowing. Thank you for the meal. (Visit rating 3.50, 457 reviews)

This is my third visit, and the hamburgers are still delicious as ever. I would definitely come back for more. There are many different types to choose from, so I want to try all the flavors. The staff is attentive, always refilling our water. It can get crowded during meal times, so it's best to go early or late!

I had the opportunity to go out on Saturday morning, so after finishing my errands, I decided to visit Tokura Honten, a restaurant that had caught my interest from a TV show. When I arrived a little after 12 o'clock, there were about 5 groups ahead of me waiting. I filled out a form and waited in the adjacent waiting room for about 10 minutes before being seated. The restaurant was not very spacious, with around 5 seats at the counter and 5 tables. In the kitchen, about 4 staff members were busy preparing and grilling hamburgers. I had pre-ordered the original 180g hamburger lunch set with a drink, so it arrived promptly. As rumored, when I squeezed it with chopsticks, the meat juice overflowed and spilled out of the plate. It was cooked thoroughly inside, tender, and delicious! It tasted like homemade hamburgers, but achieving this level of cooking at home can be quite challenging. I finished the 180g hamburger easily and had a hot coffee after the meal. The total cost was 1,095 yen.

I used this restaurant for the first time in years. It's a popular place, so I went early to get into the vibe. I tried the cheese hamburger for the first time and it was delicious. It seems like they have several locations, so I definitely want to go eat there again. I think it's a restaurant that lives up to expectations.

The food is delicious and the restaurant stays open late, which is appreciated. Due to being fully booked, we had to write our name and wait in a beautiful private waiting area for 5 minutes. We had already checked the menu beforehand and were soon escorted to our table. Tonight, we couldn't resist taking in all the meat juices that overflowed.

Hamburg Steak with grated daikon 300g for 1,150 yen, Japanese-style set for 250 yen, Mini salad for 330 yen, totaling 1,730 yen. The hamburg steak seems to have changed its recipe. There is a lot more pork in it now, and the juiciness when you cut into it has decreased. The dressing for the salad is still amazing. It's delicious, but that initial excitement seems to be missing. If you're in Osaka, they have opened up shops all over Kyoto, but I wonder if the quality has gone down?

I visited the handmade hamburger restaurant "Tekuzuki Hamburger" and the main store of "Tokura-san" in Katsura for the first time in about 3 years. As always, it was bustling and I managed to slip into a counter seat at the right time. I always order the "Hot Pepper Hamburger" with a "Fried Egg Topping" and a "Japanese-style Set". It is cooked right in front of you on a hot plate, and the staff's teamwork is amazing! Just watching them work is enjoyable. When the hamburger is served on a large plate, it overflows with meat juice when you cut into it. The hamburger is fluffy and tender, yet packed with the savory taste of meat. It is so delicious! The slightly spicy sauce adds an exciting kick, and the fried egg, when mixed in, is also amazing. It was a pleasure to enjoy this meal after a long time. It's convenient that there is a Tokura-san branch in Lucua, but for some reason, the taste is even better at the main store. I left the restaurant feeling very satisfied and full. It was incredibly delicious. Thank you for the meal.
