About this spot
Hasegawa elevates tonkatsu into an art form with its legendary God Harami and the rare, melt-in-your-mouth God Tongue cutlet. While the standard GENJI set offers a solid entry point, the ultra-premium ISE course showcases the chef's mastery over every inch of the pig. This Ryogoku institution demands patience for its counter seating but rewards diners with crispy, golden-brown crusts that shatter under the knife.
π‘ Tips before you go
- Book well in advance as the limited counter seats fill up quickly, especially for the high-end ISE and HEIKE courses.
- Order the God Tongue if you want to experience a texture unlike any other cutlet, noting it is significantly pricier than the standard options.
- Ask the chef to slice your cutlet tableside to ensure the perfect ratio of crispy skin to tender meat on every bite.
