I arrived at opening time for Kkot Gatsu and the daily limited special loin cutlet without waiting.

Along with pork cutlets, there are plenty of sides to try, including naengmomil (cold buckwheat noodles), hwa udon, café udon, and fried shrimp. Here’s my weekday dinner review of Kkot Gatsu Dongtan Main Branch, where properly crisp-outside, moist-inside pork cutlets are made with top-grade Korean pork ✔️ ## Kkot Gatsu Dongtan Main Branch location and parking ![Kkot Gatsu Dongtan Main Branch across from Wangbaesan Sports Park](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin-02-1pppc-900.webp) Kkot Gatsu Dongtan Main Branch is right across from Wangbaesan Sports Park in Mok-dong, Dongtan, near the dining area. It had been a few months since my last visit, so I came back at last! It usually has a lunch-time wait, so I arrived right at the 11 a.m. weekend opening and was seated immediately without waiting. If you hate waiting, I think arriving at opening is the way to go! You can park in the alley in front of the restaurant, but it is often full on weekends. Mok-dong Public Parking Lot is a better option, just a two- to three-minute walk away. There are EV chargers too, so we left our car charging while we ate haha. ## A clean, comfortable dining room ![Clean and comfortable interior at Kkot Gatsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin-03-1mtx3-900.webp) Every time I visit Kkot Gatsu, the first thing I notice is how clean the restaurant always is—and the tableware is super clean too. Hygiene is something I quietly pay attention to whenever I eat out, so this is one of the places I like even more because it feels clean and comfortable overall! ![Seating inside Kkot Gatsu Dongtan Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin-04-1an46-900.webp) ![Café-like interior design at Kkot Gatsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin-05-1k6tr-900.webp) ![Table area at Kkot Gatsu Dongtan Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin-06-1aasb-900.webp) There are tables for two to four people, and quite a few people come here to eat alone. We came in right at opening, but a few tables were already taken, as expected! From around noon, there is a wait, so keep that in mind. The café-like interior is pretty too, making Kkot Gatsu a nice place for a date meal ✨ You can also spot various certifications on one side, including an excellence award in the pork cutlet category from the Korea Consumer Industry Evaluation. There is a restroom inside the restaurant, so you do not have to go in and out, and there are even two types of high chair. I think that is why lots of families with children visit too! ## Pork cutlet and side-menu prices ![Kkot Gatsu pork cutlet and side-menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin-07-2h1jr-966.webp) ![Kkot Gatsu katsu set-menu board](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin-08-1mj04-966.webp) - Katsu options including Kkot Gatsu, loin katsu, cheese katsu, and chicken katsu: ₩14,000–₩21,500 - Sides including naengmomil, café udon, and Kkot fried shrimp: ₩5,000–₩12,000 - Katsu set menus, including pork cutlet with hwa udon or su udon: ₩17,000–₩26,000 ![Receipt review benefit notice](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin-09-1ti2r-900.webp) ✅ For a Naver receipt review, a regular review gets you a drink, while a photo review gets cheese balls or beer—just so you know! ## The Kkot Gatsu and special loin katsu we ordered My husband and I ordered one menu item each, then picked up side dishes from the self-service bar first. They come with the meal anyway, but we grabbed extra because we wanted more. ![Side dishes picked up from the self-service bar](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin-10-n9p5o-900.webp) ![Side-dish setting before the pork cutlet meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin-11-1klks-900.webp) ![Full meal set with Kkot Gatsu and special loin katsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin-12-uk1m7-966.webp) Top: Kkot Gatsu (tenderloin, 200 g), ₩15,000 / Bottom: special loin katsu (200 g), ₩16,000. About 20 minutes after ordering, both pork cutlet dishes came out almost at the same time. They arrived as such neat, appetizing-looking full set meals, right? ![Kkot Gatsu and special loin katsu dishes](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin-13-1qil2-900.webp) ![Neatly presented pork cutlet full meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin-14-kc8c7-900.webp) ![Pork cutlet meal at Kkot Gatsu Dongtan Main Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin-15-q3fs8-900.webp) ### Tender Kkot Gatsu tenderloin The Kkot Gatsu I ordered is Kkot Gatsu Dongtan Main Branch’s most basic menu item. Since it is a tenderloin pork cutlet, it is soft, so this is usually what I get. The slightly pink center and crisp-looking crust were so juicy, and it smelled wonderfully nutty from the start >< ![Kkot Gatsu made with tenderloin](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin-16-yxunn-900.webp) ![Crispy, moist cross-section of Kkot Gatsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin-17-1g55c-900.webp) Even without any sauce, the pork cutlet alone was so delicious: crispy on the outside, then moist and tender inside ㅠㅠ The cutlet itself is quite thick, so the portion is substantial too. ![Thick Kkot Gatsu pork cutlet](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin-18-b4quc-900.webp) ### The daily limited special loin katsu we aimed for in the morning This is the special loin katsu my husband ordered, which is only sold in limited quantities each day. If you visit early in the morning like this, you can try the limited special loin katsu too haha. Kkot Gatsu is delicious, but this one is even better—that’s what I’d say. ![Daily limited special loin katsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin-19-1v0vj-900.webp) ![Special loin katsu made with a whole piece of pork loin](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin-20-wyrai-900.webp) ![Rich and tender special loin katsu](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin-21-1cvao-900.webp) It is a pork cutlet made with a whole piece of loin, and the meat was truly amazing! It had nuttiness, tenderness, and a pleasant chew—all of it, literally, in its texture and flavor. There was just the right amount of fat around the edge, and it was not only rich but the loin itself was tender too. For both my husband and me, Kkot Gatsu’s undisputed number-one pork cutlet is the special loin katsu ⭐️ ![Special loin katsu with rice and soybean paste soup](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin-22-1gfa8-900.webp) The rice and doenjang-guk (soybean paste soup) eaten alongside the pork cutlet were reliably above average as well. Even though I can eat quite a lot, I always leave this place absolutely stuffed... haha. ![Rice and soybean paste soup served with the pork cutlet meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin-23-1drh0-900.webp) ![Dessert candies at the register](https://img.superchart.com/images/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin-24-ofphz-900.webp) On the way out, we made sure to pick up the candies by the register and enjoyed dessert too >< If you are looking for a good restaurant in Mok-dong, Dongtan—or a popular Dongtan spot that gets a wait—Kkot Gatsu Dongtan Main Branch is worth seeking out. If you want a truly good pork cutlet restaurant in Dongtan, I recommend it for a date or a family meal too, since the atmosphere is lovely. ## Where it is - Kkot Gatsu Dongtan Main Branch (꽃가츠 동탄본점) (꽃가츠 동탄본점) - 33 Wangbaesan 3-gil, Dongtan-gu, Hwaseong, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea - 경기도 화성시 동탄구 왕배산3길 33 1층 - 37.1810465, 127.1256887 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EA%BD%83%EA%B0%80%EC%B8%A0%20%EB%8F%99%ED%83%84%EB%B3%B8%EC%A0%90/@37.1810465,127.1256887,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@water-pitcher-meals/dongtan-mokdong-pork-cutlet-special-loin/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
