Testimonials

"You order online and pay in store. The server was really helpful and polite. The food came out and was really yummy. Had the wagyu beef and pork curry udon. Oh and we also had the prawn katsu sando. All of it was really yummy. You get what you pay for and I was thoroughly impressed. Made me feel like I wasn’t in Vancouver for a quick second and I loved it. Haha. 👍🏼 The wagyu beef came out with a fun hot plate incase you want to have the meat more medium. The curry is flavorful and suited the udon which had a good texture. The soup wasn’t overly thick and coated the noodles nicely."

“I had the pork Katsu cheese curry. It was really dope. The curry was actually spicy(i find Japanese curry doesn’t have enough kick in butt if you know what I’m sayin) and thick. The pork was tender, juicy, and nicely breaded. The rice was perfect, and not over cooked. The cheese was gooey and rich. When i took a bite, i had a flavour explosion in my mouth. 10/10 would recommend again.”

“Our server (guy) was very accommodating and always checked on us. The food is great, their in house hot sauce is good on literally everything. I like the tenderness of the meat and the crispy ness of the katsu. Side cabbage with house dressing is superb”

“A superb Japanese curry fried pork chop shop in Richmond Aberdeen. The curry rice in this shop is very delicious. It is a little bit spicy. A friend who can't eat too hot can ask the boss to ask for it. Restaurant service is also very good. It is especially recommended with beef curry rice, which is very good for roasting and beef.”

- Trevor

“Came here without reading the reviews. The food was great. Prawn fry were nicely crisp and tender inside. The pork loin was a bit overcooked but the curry was delicious and much needed to go with the pork. The chicken Katsu was deliciously fried crispy outside and moist inside. The rice served was perfect texture. It’s tough to hear about the inconsistency from the reviews but with COVID business is tough. I’m just glad I was able to provide some business because the service here is awesome.”
