01 / ABOUT THE PLACE
About this place
Tucked into a residential pocket of Akatsuka, Itabashi Ward, Takamatsu welcomes diners behind its traditional noren curtains for crisp fried specialties, fresh sashimi, and eel dishes in a calm, welcoming atmosphere. Counter seats and raised tatami seating lend the dining room a gentle sense of nostalgia, making it just as fitting for an unhurried solo meal as it is for a relaxed family dinner.
Thick-cut pork cutlets are the mainstay of the menu, led by rich loin cutlets with a sweet ribbon of fat and tender fillet cutlets. Each set comes rounded out with rice, miso soup, and pickles. At midday, the restaurant also serves affordable options like weekday-only katsudon and a mixed-fry platter that brings together prawn, croquette, and fillet katsu in a single spread.
Beyond deep-fried dishes, the selection extends to fresh sashimi sets, fluffy grilled unaju (eel on rice), and multi-course meals available by advance reservation. Free on-site parking adds convenience, making it an easy and reliable stop when exploring the neighborhood or heading home from local events.
