Saboten

This katsu restaraurant deserves a solid 5 stars! Visited on 26 May 2022, Thursday night. 5 stars for the food freshness, quality, portion, and taste. Enjoyed the matcha icecream which was not too strong flavoured. Ordered the katsu set for 2 pax and the dish was skillfully displayed. Could not finish the food so we asked to takeaway to which the waitress gladly assisted and packeted the leftovers nicely, she even placed chopsticks and the sauces inside the plastic bag for us. 5 stars for the service. Price was reasonable, about $30 per pax. Would visit again.

First time here after reading all the reviews as my friend said she wanted to eat Japanese deep fried thick pork. What was good? 1. Quick and attentive service 2. Clean table 3. Fast refill of cabbage as starters while u wait for the main dish to arrive 4. Nice sesame dressing for the cabbage 5. The deep fried not oily thick pork. 6. Ice cream though green is too milky for my liking. 7. The chawan mushi is just right.

This review is for Saboten, Orchard which is a pity that it's no longer open. The tonkatsu is one of the best in Singapore. Ordered multiple time both take out and dining in, never dissapoints. Tried both lean and fatty pork bento and they are awesome. When dining in, one gets unlimited refill of the thinly sliced cabbage, and the grind yourself condiment is great.

Go-to katsu place! Come in hungry and make sure to order their pork iberico katsu - super tender pork. Another favourite is the salmon katsu, nicely cooked and perfect tartar sauce. Sets come with refillable rice, chawamushi, miso soup, unli cabbage, and matcha ice cream. And I have to say, I'm not a bit matcha gal, but this one is pretty tasty. A meal here would set you back 35-40 SGD, but you have to be prepared to spend a bit for quality ingredients 👍
