5 ReviewsDiners love the rich, flavorful Japanese curry, especially the beef tendon and pork katsu, and appreciate the generous portions and reasonable prices. The cozy, retro atmosphere with rock music and friendly staff are also highlights, though the Japanese-only menu means you'll need Google Translate.
