About this place
At Waton, one well-loved way to finish salt chanko hot pot is to add ramen and butter to the broth, turning it into a rich salt-and-butter ramen. The hot pot is listed as a single serving, and the menu also offers plenty to tempt diners sharing dinner or choosing individual meat dishes. Reviews mention particularly thick tonkatsu, as well as portions so generous that some diners could not finish them. Pork steak, premium tonkatsu and the house salt chanko hot pot are among the options for a substantial evening meal.
Bento is popular at lunchtime, and diners can also eat in. Customers mention handmade hamburger steak, pork grilled with miso and grilled salted mackerel. One diner praised a hamburger-steak bento with a hand-shaped patty and house-made sauce; the menu also has fish dishes for those who would rather not choose meat. Another diner reported that a pork fillet cutlet bento came with 4 tender pieces, making it a tempting choice for a hearty lunch.
Evening drinks include draft beer, fresh lemon and fresh sudachi sours, Hoppy and warmed sake. Pair a sour or beer with charcoal-grilled tongue or skirt steak, or miso-marinated pork loin; if you are focusing on the hot pot or a meal, warmed sake and soft drinks are also among the choices.
