- Another busy Mitsuwa vendor during Sunday lunch, specializing in katsu options - They offer mobile ordering for pickup at the same prices as the in-person menu, with orders freshly prepared and conveniently packaged to-go - Lively and bustling, typical of the Mitsuwa food court; expect a steady crowd and a ton of background noise - Pickup is smooth and straightforward--simply wait for your ticket number to be called - The food was made fresh, packed with flavor, and generously portioned--both filling and satisfying
I've gotten food here a few times over the years and I still don't understand the hype over the Mitsuwa food court. I had a beef/rice bowl and hubby had a beef/udon bowl. The beef/rice bowl had very little beef in it and of the beef there was, half of it was fat. The beef/udon bowl was advertised as a dry noodle bowl, but it actually came with broth and a bunch of random soggy tempura flakes on top. Again, the beef situation here was the same as the beef/rice bowl. We really only ate here because it was lunchtime, and this spot had menu items that my toddler would actually eat. But if I had to choose one thing to get for lunch at Mitsuwa, I'd rather just get the bento boxes from the supermarket side. Those are actually pretty decent.
I've ordered from here before, and I'd say their curries are pretty solid. I wanted to try something new and opted for their miso pork cutlet bowl. The difference between the miso pork cutlet bowl and the plate is that the plate comes with miso soup. The meat was quite dry, but it was battered pretty well. The miso itself had a relatively one dimensional flavor. The rest of the dish was white rice, and the meat to rice ratio was not great. Giving 3 stars bc again, the curries are good.
THE GOOD ---------------- + Like any of the Japanese food stalls at Mitsuwa, there are PLENTY of options to choose from. ++++ Menu consist of Japanese rice plates with proteins (e.g., pork cutlet, chicken cutlet, grilled salmon, karaage, etc.), udon with misc. proteins and curry rice plates. + Pork Cutlet Curry was solid. Nothing spectacular, but was still very good. Plenty of curry to mix your large chopped pork cutlet into. It hit the spot and the portion was fair. + Pricing of all of their food is on par with most of the other Mitsuwa vendors, ranging from $9 - $15. THE NOT SO GOOD ---------------------------- - Wish they served ramen too, but I guess they have their own niche and there's enough ramen being served at Hokkaido Ramen Santouka. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = The lines are never super long at this vendor, like Omusubi Gonbei or Hokkaido Ramen Santouka, but the food is just as good.
Thank goodness for Mitsuwa Marketplace and their Japanese food stalls! Wateishoku Kaneda offers comfort food like curry, udon, katsu, and chicken karaage. They also have some specialty items like stuffed buns, corn dogs, and yakitori. The menu is simple with reasonable prices. You can choose from: -curry: rice + your choice of protein + curry -plate set: your choice of protein + rice + miso soup + fries -bowl: your choice of protein + rice -udon: noodles + your choice of toppings You order on the self-service touch screen and wait for your order number to be called. We each got the Pork Cutlet Curry ($13.48) which includes a deep-fried breaded pork cutlet, Japanese curry, sliced hard-boiled egg, and white rice. Service was quick - our food came out in 5 minutes or so. There was a good portion of meat. The pork was tender with a crispy panko-breaded outer texture. It was deep fried to a golden-brown color with a nice crunch! The curry was thick and aromatic with a blend of sweet and savory flavors. Very mild with the spices, so if you're looking for something spicy, this might not be up your alley. I wish they added more curry to mix with the rice. Not the most memorable curry and katsu I've had, but it was still a satisfying meal. I would come back to try their udon bowls next time!
I have been here a few times, always had a solid meal here. My last meal I got was the chicken cutlet curry ($13.31). The chicken was thighs and it was juicy and breading/panko was still crispy even when drenched with curry. The curry was solid and the sliced hard boiled eggs were a nice touch. The food court has plenty of choices and I would recommend this place if you want chicken or pork cutlet.
Wow, I can't believe during all my visits to Mitsuwa I have never tried this place in the food court! I ordered the beef udon that comes with an onsen egg (nikutameten udon) on their touchscreen tablet. I wandered around the food court and supermarket as I waited for my food to be prepared before my number was called. All I can say is wow! The flavor of the soup was so simple but also slightly sweet, I'm not sure what exactly the flavor was but it was so good. One order was definitely filling enough. A few beef slices with lots of grated yam or radish on the side. The udon noodles also tasted quite fresh as it didn't have an alkaline taste to it. My brother got the chicken cutlet curry rice and it was a quite a generous portion. The curry spice tasted just mild to me so not spicy at all. The chicken cutlet was crispy outside and tender on the inside.
First time having this. It was chicken with cheese and some salad. Was awesome. Fast friendly service. Hot food..... amazing
I ordered Curry Udon With a pork cutlet and it was $20. Good curry flavor and the udon was perfectly cooked. The pork katsu was crispy on the outside.
Another hit at Mitsuwa--we ordered 2 udon bowls, a beef curry and a nikutamaten. Big bowls with thick delicious noodles on a weekday afternoon with plenty of seating--10/10 quick no-fuss lunch. Make sure to tip the sweet ladies cleaning up around you!
Food was incredibly delicious. Super fast and extremely authentic!! Service was wonderful and I can't wait to go back and try this place again.
It was a cold cloudy day when I had lunch. Was always craving curry udon. I wish they had larger bowl size for more noodle portion. Ordered the beef curry udon noodles soup. Delish as always. I usually go next door to the ramen place to get a spoon of their togarashi spice and add it to the curry udon. It makes it better. I wish they offer it here as well... My husband decided to try the mackerel as it looked great in the display. There was a sign that stated fresh grilled fish can take up to 20min or so- there is a wait but worth it. My husband loved it.
Located in Mitsuwa marketplace. On weekends, may need to go around multiple times for a parking spot, so better on weekdays. Only one main seating area for the whole food court so a lot of patience needed waiting for a table. We usually pick this place - we like their cheese pork cutlet, mackerel and other plates. It's food-court food but it takes time to get your order (they announce your number; use the time looking for a place to sit); and servings also didn't look like before and not as much like with the sides.

Thank you for the 5 stars, Gambit L. ! We’re incredibly grateful you…
This restaurant is located in the dining hall of Mitsua. Right next to the ordering area, they had a beautiful display shelf stacked with most of their popular dishes. We stopped by the store as they had Japanese curry in the menu. I used the self ordering kiosk to put in order for Karage chicken curry and beef bowl. They also had udon and other rice plates on the menu as well. The prices of the items were decent relative to their size, all between $12-$16. It took them little over 5 minutes to prepare both dishes. The beef bowl had some thin shredded beef mixed with caramelized onions, some cabbage and ginger. I felt the amount of beef was little low. The rice was fine. For the curry, chicken seemed over fried to me. The curry itself also had small chunks, not the smoother kind that I like. Though we ate our lunch just fine, overall quality and quantity fell short to my expectations. read more

Fast service, great tasting food. The Miso Pork Cutlet plate was savory and delicious. We came all the way from DC to partake. Highly recommended! read more
Came back to try the katsu curry. I had the pork cutlet curry rice and added on a potato mozzarella kdog. I've had better curry rice with cutlet, but this place still satisfies and it is very filling. The kdog was pretty good too. I saw to-go orders coming out for Tsujita, a new hand roll sushi place, but I didn't see a sign if we could order that from this vendor also. It was showing up on a big TV screen next to the pickup counter. I am curious to try it, but wherever it is, it needs more signage. read more
Extemely below average food. We were very surprised to find bad food inside a well-renowned japanese supermarket. We got the cheese katsu set and the curry udon noodles. The cheese katsu had too much cheese and not enough meat. Even when I separated out the cheese from the meat, it was still quite tasteless and bland. The curry udon had a tasty broth but was very very thin like water which was not to our liking. Service was attentive and fast at least. And the ambiance was food court style but on a slightly nicer end of the spectrum. Next time we come back to the japanese supermarket, we'll be trying other food places. read more

The worst food in the Mitsuwa food court. Pork cutlet was stiff and cold inside. Its exterior was warmed over. Rice was on the cold side too. Food is definitely made hours ago and the staff doesn't do a good job reheating it. Or maybe the pork cutlet's rigor mortis is due to being reheated several times. My food was literally handed to me 3 minutes after I placed the order. How is that possible unless it's just reheated? Stay away from here. Literally anything at Mitsuwa tastes better. If you can't find this place, it's because the "W" from the sign is missing as is its pride. I hope this review is read and improvements are made. But reading the handful of 1 star reviews, the owner only makes excuses and asks you to give them another chance (The same response was given to a reviewer who got food poisoning). read more

Yesterday I used the self-service kiosk at Wateishoku Kaneda and ordered a chicken cutlet bowl. I grabbed my paper receipt and waited for my number to be called (the wait wasn't long). It was towards the end of the day about an hour from closing, so I found a table to sit. 4 stars - The bowl hit the spot! That rice with the sauce was delish! Great comfort food. Definitely a repeat order :) read more

Stopped in at Mitsuwa for lunch on Sunday. And of course the difficult decision of where to eat as all of the spots at Mitsuwa are delicious! We finally decided to order from Wateishoku Kaneda. We had placed our order at the self service kiosk and waited for our number to be called. The wait wasn't too bad for a Sunday afternoon. We had ordered the chicken karaage and the chicken karaage with curry. The food was excellent! I loved the curry! It was sweet with a hint of spiciness. And the karaage was cooked perfectly. The karaage came with a cabbage salad and the most delicious sesame dressing-- my sister really liked it! We had enjoyed our food and can't wait to come back again. read more

Great chicken cutlet curry! Good service, came out quick. Great taste, good flavor yes yes. read more
Always getting something here, they have a lot of nice choices of dishes. I really think they do a very good job with the beef udon. Lite broth and flavorful, good amount of meat and I like the pouched egg. Really nice blend. The beef bowl is very tasty and not overly salty. I like the extra sauce that is at the bottom, give the rice a nice chewy like texture. Today I tried an new item that they have now. A cheese pork katsu. I really like it. Not over fried and tender pork wrap with cheese. read more

I honestly didn't think anything of this place and thought the food would just taste okay. Ordered the pork cutlet bowl and 10/10! So much flavor, cooked perfectly and had the perfect amount for a very reasonable price. Ordered the bowl to go and drove 2 hours home. The food did not get too wet or mushy. Remained its texture and flavor and able to handle long distance. I would come back and order from here again! read more

Thank you so much for sharing your review and five stars. The port…
This restaurant in mitsuwa marketplace is my favorite spot to go and grab Japanese food. I just got back from a trip to japan and I miss the food there so I got my fix in here. I ordered the curry chicken cutlet with rice and it's absolutely delicious. I ordered one to eat there and one to take home. I love this spot and will definitely be coming back here for the food. I usually eat first and then go shopping in the supermarket. I highly recommend this place! read more

Tasty inexpensive food location in Mitsuwa. The food came out pretty quickly (~10min) just noting that the seating area is a bit chaotic and it is self serve if you're going on a weekend which is expected. This place seems to specialize in fried meats so it was no surprise the meat was cooked perfectly. I really enjoyed my pork curry cutlet dish it was flavorful and crunchy. The boiled pork dish was interesting, it was slightly sweet and since it's boiled the batter is moist. The only complaint I have is that I was they incorporated more veggies in their dishes but that's just personal preference. read more

Crispy karaage chicken on rich curry is a match made in heaven! The juicy meat and golden crust perfectly complement the savory, slightly spicy sauce. A simple but brilliant combination that satisfies every time. read more

Took me about 15 minutes to get into mitsuwa marketplace and around 4PM, there were still people lining up to get inside or to get food. People can sit inside and eat. Out of the food court options available, hokkaido ramen was the most popular. There were about 4 other people waiting at Wateishoku Kaneda so things went pretty fast. I was craving fried shrimp curry and none of the other spots had it. It was about $11 and it came with the fried shrimp, curry sauce, rice, egg, egg salad, and this red stuff that had the texture of octopus. I'm not sure if I was just hungry but it tasted a bit like gogo curry to me. I enjoyed the little side dishes and it made my meal more valuable than just the advertised egg + fried shrimp + rice. I recommend coming to mitsuwa marketplace and finding the restaraunt/shop that entices you. There's so many options. But more specifically I might try the beef curry noodles next time at Wateishoku Kaneda if i'm craving it. read more
3.5 rating. Tried their cheese pork katsu and although I thought it was good there was nothing special about it. Not sure if it's worth me struggling for parking on a weekend , waiting on the line over 20 mins and then eating it while standing up. read more

First time here at the restaurant. It is located within the Mitsuwa market. Lots of other eateries around. Busy Saturday dinner time. Barely found a spot to eat food. The food itself was good. #11 Boiled Chicken Cutlet, pretty decent size and tasty. I ordered it for TO Go, but I was not given a simple plastic bag so It wont spill. I guess it's their business practice. They asked to pay 50 cents, after I put $1 tipped. I should have not. Since, I wasn't given a plastic vegetable/fruit bag I ate it in. But it wasn't a pleasant experience since one must eat fast and not really taking the time to enjoy dish, because there are other people waiting for seats on the food court, like literally standing by your table/seat, lol. Perhaps my mistake coming in a busy Saturday. read more
Stopped by on a busy Saturday early afternoon; the wait to the ordering tablet was approximately 10 minutes, then from paid til food ready about 15 minutes. I got the Chicken cutlet curry ($11.98) and brother got the chicken cutlet bowl ($11.98), strangely, picking pork for all options would have been $1 extra- no idea why since usually pork and chicken are the same price, but doesn't affect us because we like chicken more generally. The egg that came with the curry wasn't too fresh; the rice in the cutlet bowl was way too salty (probably whoever was pouring the soy sauce slipped?), and both of us had stomach aches after- restrooms near entrance were clutch; hadn't eaten anything before this meal, so, not entirely sure what made us sick. read more
