I visited Saboten at 313 Somerset outlet on 16 March 2017 for dinner, overall the staff's attitude and their customer service is positive while their quality of food is fresh.
I would like to compliment a few staff, one of them named Alan.
1. I was coughing badly while looking at the menu at the entrance. He suggested to offer me a glass of water.
2. He went extra mile to find ointment for burn as I accidentally scalded my thumb.
3. A senior female staff was also helpful by giving recommendation treatment to the scald and initiated to offer refill tea and cabbage.
4. Another female staff was very patient during clearing the table as I was having the last bit.
5. A young male staff was polite when he was asking permission to remove the sauces for top up.
Do keep up the standard of service and food quality.
Today was the first time my best friend and I dined at Saboten at 313Somerset, but it definitely won't be the last time. We ordered a 'Mix and Match' set meal each, with mini tenderloin and cheese tenderloin. The meat was juicy and the cheese was savoury, oozing out with every bite. While fried food tends to be greasy and heavy, the tenderloin patties were delicious! I also loved the fluffy steamed rice and refreshing cold shredded cabbage which I drizzled with sesame sauce, as well as the complimentary warm green tea (free flow, no less! �). Kudos to the service staff on duty who were very attentive and took the initiative to refill our tea, and were friendly and approachable throughout. �
Did lunch here and it was great value. With lunch menu ordered, I get to order a coke and a chawanmushi at just 1 dollar each. Happy that the $1coke is a full can!!! The $1 chawanmushi has corn in it, delicious. My lunch set is nice of cos, with free flow cabbage and rice. The place is also super clean, the sauces bottles are well maintained,service is OK to me as I was busy talking to my friend. Will come back again. 😊
My pictures don't do it justice. I absolutely love this place. Love the cabbage with goma dressing!!!! And guess what, free refills for miso soup, rice and cabbage. We ordered the grilled chicken and the Pork Tonkatsu. It was both great - meat is tender, juicy and crispy on the outside. So yummy! The service was excellent as well. Do visit this place if you're around here. You def won't regret it
Excellent food and service. Their specialty is the tonkatsu and it's a must-try if you're visiting. The meat was crisp on the outside and tender on the inside, while not being too unpleasantly tough.
The sets offered during lunch hours give the food great value as most of them are actually the same items on the menu minus one or two sides but you save more than $5.
Service was top-notch too, and justifies the higher price you're paying as this restaurant is considered upscale. Waiters were attentive, fast with service, and extremely polite.
Highly recommended for great Japanese Tonkatsu!!
Free flow of salad and rice, crispy fried pork loin with 2 delicious sides. Even though the food is a little pricey, it was really delicious and we thoroughly enjoyed our meal here.

Dependably consistent tonkatsu. For a healthier alternative to the heavy tonkatsu sauce, try the gozen.... The cool grated daikon is a wonderful counterpoint to the crispy tonkatsu batter.
The pork here is soft, seasoned with balance, and always wrapped in dependably crispy panko crust. We've found the flavours here much more consistent than ma maison.
This meal nearly did me in! 😝
I usually order the pork loin but this time decided to go for the Iberico pork. Feeling greedy so went for the ‘variety’ set. The pork was more tender. The different fried items (prawn and cream croquette) also made the meal un-boring. I held back on getting a 2nd helping of rice (😔), instead filled up on the crisp cabbage. In hindsight I shouldn’t have - coz the (v addictive) sesame dressing might had had equal or more calories.... 🤷♀️
Have alway love their pork tonkatsu , that comes with free flow cabbage (cold) . I love their cabbage too because it is shredded so thinly n served ice cold... so delicious, i would at least have 2 serving everytime.
Price is reasonable too .
Unlimited salad, soup and rice if u order main.
I like salad sauce(sesami).
Staff act very fast.
