About this place
The choice here is between a jō-tendon piled with assorted tempura and a bowl centred on kakiage, a mixed-vegetable fritter. Tempura Tsuruhide serves tendon made with sesame oil, and some reviewers comment that the oil feels light and leaves them less prone to feeling heavy afterwards.
One takeaway order of jō-tendon included prawns, whiting, aubergine, shimeji mushrooms and capsicum, along with a small-prawn kakiage. The reviewer remembered the firm rice and oil whose sesame flavour was not overpowering. Another diner praised the texture of the prawns in the kakiage and how the sauce soaked into the batter and rice. Toppings vary between orders, so jō-tendon is a good way to see what tempura is served that day.
Some diners find the sauce on the kakiage tendon rather sharp, making it an alternative if you are after a different flavour from the jō-tendon.
Several reports mention takeaway, while others describe enjoying a standing meal inside. Information about the service format varies. Published listings give Wednesday hours as 11:00–14:00, starting at 11 hours and 45 minutes. One listing also says that payment is cash only, so it is worth checking the latest details before visiting.
