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. �
Love the cabbage with its dressings, best Tonkatsu in town, must try their Tonkatsu sauce and the meat together, oH myy😋! The set meal will make your tummy full and happy ! I love their matcha ice cream too. Must try their tenderloin katsu set! Yummiest 👍
My go to for good value and quality katsu. Katsu itself (I ordered the pork) is fried well and pork right amount of fat. The non curry “traditional” sauce is authentic (vs my expectation/experience). Cabbage and rice all you can which is a nice touch especially if you like the Japanese sauce, absolutely drowning the cabbage with the sauce seemed to be the norm looking around..... set lunch especially good value, service quick and courteous. Not sure what more you could ask for.
A great Japanese restaurant! The food is delicious and authentic, so full of flavour! The cheese tenderloin just oozes cheese and flavour with eaxh crunchy bite. The Tenderloin Katsu Don was cooked to perfection. And I have never had such delicious geen tea ice-cream. Every bite of the food here brings you back to Japan!
Amazing tonkatsu! Crust is excellent and love the tonkatsu fatty corners that melts in mouth. Went there during weekday lunch and enjoyed the set lunch promotions. Free flow rice, veg and green tea. Option to top up one dollar for chawanmushi or ice cream. Must visit for tonkatsu lovers
Excellent japanese food at Tanjong Pagar. They have good lunch time set deals. You can try their ice cream if you top up an additional $1. Same for drinks and chawanmushi. There is a lunch crowd so make sure that you are early.
This place is famous for its deep fried pork and depending on the season, deep fried oyster.
I had the pleasure of enjoying the oyster which was towards the end of the season.
The food is consistent across the outlets, in Japan or in Singapore.
Recommended to all to try.
In my second time dining here, I ordered oysters and tenderloin katsu. Oysters were ok, served steaming hot with mayonaise sauce. This time the tenderloin won my heart as I got fed up with the fattiness of the loin meat in my previous dine-in. Overall, the food was good and filling. Staff are nice and attentive.
The wagyu beef is Super nice!! If you add some of their customised plum sauce on it, it is an ultimate indulgence! The rice, miso and salad is refillable
