Tazumura

Tazumura (鶴群) at Daimaru Umeda is a standout spot for tonkatsu in Osaka, perfect for a satisfying meal before hopping on a train or after a day of shopping. I completely agree—it’s some of the best I’ve tried, too! A Cut Above the Rest Their menu is centered around high-quality pork. The star is the "Kirishima Black Pork" (霧島黒豚), a premium meat from Miyazaki Prefecture known for its fine marbling and sweet, rich flavor. Whether you choose the loin (rosu) or the leaner tenderloin (hire), you can expect a thick, juicy cutlet. It's generously coated in coarse panko breadcrumbs for an exceptionally crisp, airy crunch that doesn't feel heavy. The combination of premium ingredients, the fun DIY sauce, and the incredible value with free refills makes it a must-visit. It's the perfect place to fuel up authentically and deliciously in the heart of Umeda. I will absolutely be back!

In summary, if you are in the mood of pass for this kind of situations, this is the right place 👎🏼

Their katsu are nicely fried. Crispy on the outside and the meat is still moist and tender. The sides that comes with the set meal complement the main dishes well. Curry for the kids meal are also well thought of, making sure it’s not spicy and the portion are just nice. Staff are friendly and attentive. No worries if you do not understand Japanese as English menu are available.

We got the Katsu curry with pork tenderloin 100g and Katsudon. The pork loin tasted better than the tenderloin because it had more fat. Overall, the quality of the food isn’t as good as when I first tried it in 2023

Ordered the limited quantity tonkatsu. Thick cut, very tender, crispy. The meat looks pinkish and raw, but it is definitely cooked. I am used to eating the salad with sesame dressing, but they provided another seasoning, which is not to my liking. Overall, I would rate it 3.5/5.

A quick but sumptuous lunch in the restaurant when we wander around in Daimaru. Meet is tender, juicy, and yet crisp on the outside. Sauce or Salt ? I chose light salt, and it just enhanced the flavor. Sides are so nicely matched, too. Service is good.

Below average for the price. Ordered the curry katsu tenderloin, the curry was overly thick and harsh, the katsu was warm and a little soggy on the underside. Serving size was pretty filling and will do in a pinch as a meal but falls short of average.

Awesome tasting bit of pork with a light crispy coating with a great tasting curry. Great service with friendly staff and a nice atmosphere.
