Here at Gantetsu-Ya, we recreate the experience of an old-time Japanese eatery. It’s the kind of place that you might find tucked away in an alley in Showa era Tokyo. We use top quality ingredients and stay true to traditional techniques. Come and join us to enjoy the authentic taste of Japan and the nostalgic atmosphere of a vintage Tokyo.

We use thick-cut Purebred Kurobuta Berkshire pork for all of our tonkatsu. The production for this world-renowned gourmet pork, which is known for its rich flavor and tender texture, is limited in the US.
Unlike the ordinary dried breadcrumbs, we use fresh Panko, Japanese breadcrumbs. This imported fresh Panko is made with breads specifically made for this purpose.
To ensure great crispy bites, we fry our meat once at a lower temperature, rest, then fry with a higher temperature to finish. Using high quality rice oil, which has a high smoking point, allows us to achieve this great texture with clean flavor.
We have a few different kinds of sauce for your taste and mood for that day. They are all created with the chef's vision to enhance the flavors of tonkatsu.
（Chose your dipping sauce: Garlic Ponzu, Thai Red Curry Remoulade, Spicy Garlic Ponzu, Spicy Korean Gochu-jang）
Along with traditional Japanese seasonings like soy sauce and sake, we use apple puree to tenderize and add a hint of sweetness to the meat.
