Niigata Katsu-don Tarekatsu Honten is a specialty restaurant located just a few minutes' walk from Suidobashi Station, spotlighting tarekatsu-don—a local specialty originating in Niigata City served without eggs. Thinly pounded pork cutlets are dipped in a sweet and savory soy-based sauce and layered over rice, earning continuous praise for the great combination of crispy breading and sauce-infused rice. The shop's identity also shines in its use of Niigata Prefecture rice and Waton Mochibuta pork, cooked slightly firm so it stays fluffy and never soggy even with sauce poured over it. Another highlight is the diverse selection of bowls, such as the colorful vegetable katsu-don topped with fried broccoli and pumpkin, the generous two-tiered katsu-don with extra cutlets tucked inside the rice, and combinations with fried shrimp served with tartar sauce. The interior features only 12 counter seats and is entirely non-smoking. With fast service dishing out bowls just a few minutes after ordering, it is an easy and convenient choice for dining alone. Bento takeout can also be reserved by phone, making it a great option for meals in the neighborhood.
