Why Travelers Love Tokachi Butadon
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
Valued to eat once at Sapporo! If you’re visiting Sapporo, this place is absolutely worth a try. The food is delicious and the price is really good compared to the quality. You might need to wait in line for a while, but it’s worth. The menu has various language apart from Japanese (Chinese, English, Korean and Thai as well), so it’s easy to order even if you don’t speak their language. Highly recommend stopping by when you’re in town. Wanna go back to eat😋 Food was okay, nothing I’d go back for. I ordered the butadon 2 parts but honestly, I couldn’t determine which piece of meat is which part. The pork had a very basic and simple taste. It’s a very simple rice bowl. Pork had a bit of sweet and charred taste which wasn’t very overpowering. Pork wasn’t easy to bite into, I was expecting to be soft and juicy. a very popular dining place and always packed for lunch as well as dinner need to wait for at least 30mins no reservations but arrive and write name The meat was nicely cooked with charcoal and the burn taste / smoke taste make the meal so appetising i ordered regular meat and small rice just enough for mine lunch. I like belly as it has more fat. My hubby ordered the 2 part meat which is more lean Service is good and food served is fast The total sitting area very limited so can not accommodate too many people that is why there is always a long q

One of the most memorable meals I've had in Japan. Went here twice during our five-day stay in Sapporo. First night, we tried the Butadon with Two Parts (Loin & Belly) together with the Salad and Ume Tofu. Everything about the Butadon was perfect. The pork tastes so clean that I didn't feel satiated at all. Each grain of rice was perfectly plump, and it paired so well with the BBQ pork. Second time we came here, we had the 1.5x meat option, and we loved it! This Butadon doesn't have the pork belly, so I highly recommend it to people who like lean meat. We also shared amongst us the Pork Miso soup with boiled egg, which was also really good and I'll definitely order one for myself next time we come here. ♥️

The bbq pork is so tender and juicy. After 530pm you need to patiently wait for table, you have to write your name on waiting list first and sit at the side to wait. I here Sunday 6pm,queuing time around 20min.
