The existence of teeth is to return, do you need anything? Meat! My daughter and I stopped by Matsuya for our usual exchange, since we always go to Mitsukoshi. We were wandering around and found Wako, definitely meat. I bought a fillet cutlet sandwich for myself and a minced cutlet for my daughter. When you buy cutlets, you get cabbage as a service. I'm happy about this. When I go to Wako's restaurant, I always end up eating a lot of cabbage. There's something about the sauce and cabbage that just go well together. The minced cutlet was smooth and melted in my mouth.

Wow, it's the 60th anniversary of their founding! I often see "Tonkatsu Wako" in the restaurant area of department stores or in the basement. They have been loved for such a long time! The reliable deliciousness of a long-established restaurant. When in trouble, it's "Wako" to the rescue! Tonkatsu is great for summer fatigue and also perfect for cold weather when freshly fried. It's truly a wonderful food! I love the "Special Hire Katsu Bento" with its delicious hire katsu! When it has that special mark, the deliciousness is multiplied by 100! The crispy coating and tender meat really showcase the greatness of a long-established restaurant. I think I will continue to love it in the future!❣️⭐️ I'm on Instagram as well. 【y.catherine.y】⭐️

Tonkatsu Washou Matsuya Ginza store is located in the food section of GINZA Food Stage on the basement floor of Matsuya Ginza store. In front of the store, there are photos of bite-sized pork cutlet bento boxes and assorted bento boxes named "Tsutsuji," "Ayame," and "Kaede," all at reasonable prices. Inside the showcase, there are samples of slightly smaller rice bowl menu items such as Pork Cutlet Bowl, Pork Loin Cutlet Bowl, and Pork Cutlet and Shrimp Bowl. The Pork Cutlet Bowl comes with two pieces of bite-sized pork cutlet on top. They make the egg topping fresh after you place your order, so you can receive a warm bowl.

★Today, I ordered a freshly made hirakatsu donburi on the spot! I only had to wait 3 minutes, and I could enjoy a hot and fresh hirakatsu donburi, which made me very happy♪★I usually go for donburi dishes, but today I decided to try a bento box. The Yuribento set includes a bite-sized hirakatsu, fried squid, and menchikatsu, making it quite a luxurious bento box. Yet, it's priced at only 600 yen, which is very reasonable♪ I also purchased a 100 yen original black oolong tea from Wako. The waitress brought out the chilled items. The cabbage was fresh, and the dressing was refreshing with yuzu flavor. The fried items were slightly warm and crispy! I topped it generously with sweet tonkatsu sauce and had a satisfying lunch(^_^)★Today, I got a bento box from the department store basement! It was a cold day, so I wanted a warm bento box and went to Tonkatsu Wako. I ordered the Ebi-Hire donburi, a luxurious combination of shrimp fry and hirakatsu. They make it fresh after you order, so the egg was fluffy and hot! It's a simple and universally loved flavor! The dish contains one shrimp fry and plenty of hirakatsu. I was recommended to get a members card and ended up getting one. It costs 300 yen for one stamp, and you get 500 yen off after collecting 20 stamps. For reference, the takeout bento boxes are priced at 641 yen for the bite-sized hirakatsu bento, 609 yen for the pork cutlet bento, 914 yen for the hirakatsu shrimp bento, 536 yen for the hirakatsu donburi, 735 yen for the hirakatsu shrimp donburi, and 641 yen for the pork cutlet donburi. There are also many other options like hirakatsu sandwiches and side dishes available.

When you suddenly crave for a katsudon, you head to the department store basement and see the katsudon bento from Tonkatsu Wako! First, you're drawn in by the delicious smell, then you're captivated by the taste, and before you know it, you become a regular customer. When you want something rich and satisfying, this is highly recommended. The bento with pork cutlet and shrimp is quite luxurious! Plus, it still tastes delicious even when it's cold, which is rare for a bento. It can get quite crowded around lunchtime, so it's best to go early. Going early means you can enjoy it fresh, which is a delightful experience.

When you think of Ginza Wako, you might think of the most luxurious gift shop, but this is actually a tonkatsu (breaded pork cutlet) restaurant. Wako can be found in department store basements and station buildings all over the place, which is surprising. The Matsuya Ginza store is in a prime location, but the prices are the same as other restaurants. The katsudon (pork cutlet rice bowl) with fatty pork is excellent. The regular pork cutlet, fillet cutlet, and other options are also delicious. The rice is sticky and pairs perfectly with the cutlet. The generous serving of cabbage on the side is also very satisfying and a nice touch.

For dinner, I bought a bento box at GINZA Food Station on the ground floor of Matsuya Ginza store. I sometimes use "Tonkatsu Wako" for dining in the restaurant, but their bento boxes are also affordable, so I use them occasionally. This was my first time at this store. I got the "Special Hirekatsu Bento" and as a service, they gave me shredded cabbage with the "Menchikatsu". Even though I usually don't eat a lot of cabbage, when it's served with tonkatsu, I feel like eating a lot. They provided not only tonkatsu sauce but also yuzu dressing, so I could enjoy the cabbage with different flavors. The bento box is two-tiered, so the moisture from the rice doesn't transfer to the tonkatsu, which is great. In addition to black sesame seeds on the rice, there was also kelp tsukudani, which was a nice touch. The hirekatsu was cut into bite-sized pieces for easy eating. The rectangular "otemakase" was tightly packed with rice, and the square hirekatsu was neatly lined up. It may not be flashy, but it's a serious bento box that is "neatly arranged". I also bought the menchikatsu as an additional item, as they offer various items like croquettes and shrimp fry separately, which is great for adjusting the portion size. It was a reasonably priced and delicious hirekatsu bento. Thank you for the meal.

It's difficult to make fried food at home for dinner, so I'm grateful for places like this. Depending on what you buy, you can also get sauce, tartar sauce, and shredded cabbage, so it's nice that you can just buy and plate it to make it look like a restaurant.
