Absolutely the best place for Japanese curry in the city . This place serves the lesser know Japanese food , very authentic and has a friendly staff . Family owned and run. Expect a wait on weekends.

Kelly ????

Curry is good. Shrimp katsu curry is crazy huge. If you dare, get XXX spicy , but you're not going to enjoy it. I like my spice but it was overwhelming!

Lisa

Order the homemade hamburger with mushroom sauce . If you order the curry sauce , be careful of the spicyness. 2X = double spicy , not medium. It's REALLY hot.

Sherry Li

Japanese style western food , aka yoshoku. Love the curries and gratins . Japanese style pastas are fun too.

Brett

Spicy curry is delish, pizza is a great east/west blend and the owner is super nice. Has given us many thanks for repeat business

Joanie

mentaiko spaghetti for the win!! (+mushrooms are great too)

Jennifer Dame

Potato croquettes , chicken kara-age and gyoza were delicious. Service was pretty good for only having one server on duty.

Mehmet Orun

Curries , udon , donburi , cocktails , service, manga books

Spencer Holtaway

You've been out drinking 2 nights in a row and you're in your thirties? Have a chicken katsu don curry !

takishido neko

The mentaiko spaghetti is good but not great, kinda like the service. They're a sweet old couple running at a slower pace then most places. At least you can enjoy some anime or manga while you wait.

Margaret S

Only place I have been able toget mentaiko spaghetti ❤❤❤I bet it's great with shiso too! 美味い!

Rob Bullough

Great drinks. Slightly bonkers food selection

AJ Brustein

Go here if you'd like to experience the opposite of fast and friendly Japanese customer service.

DJ

Pork katsu curry don is okay. Wish they have more curry . Seafood udon is pretty solid

Benjamin Juang

Try the Chicken Karaage - Mmmm karage (via @Foodspotting)

Tim Albertson

Make sure you have a glass of milk if you're getting the xxx curry . It burns so much but tastes so good!

Sundai Sun

I came here for the anime , tofu mushroom and spinach curry is okay.

Samantha R.

The service can be kinda slow, but the curry pizza (with cheese and veggies , for me) is worth it.

Bernadette B.

I love the curry here! If you're planning to have dinner , arrive early. Seating is very limited.

Chicken katsu curry don is fantastic. Although I'm not sure about tomatoes in my curry .

There are so many excellent restaurants in Japantown. Eat at one of them instead of eating here. It's overpriced for a relatively low quality meal.
