Japanese cutlet restaurant debuts Jan. 29 in Los Angeles, featuring wagyu beef katsu served Kyoto-style. Ten no Meshi, a Kyoto-born restaurant specializing in tonkatsu and gyu-katsu, will open its doors Thursday in the Sawtelle neighborhood, introducing its Japanese cutlet-focused menu to Los Angeles. Ten no Meshi brings a style of Japanese dining rooted in Kyoto, featuring breaded and fried pork and wagyu beef cutlets served with traditional accompaniments. Ten no Meshi’s menu centers on tonkatsu and gyu-katsu, including wagyu beef served on a heated stone that allows diners to finish cooking the meat at the table. The Sawtelle opening marks the restaurant’s first location in Southern California.
