I used to visit the curry house by Daeie Mall in Yokosuka, Japan. This place takes me back... Food is so good. There's a tiny hint of flavor that I think is missing.. but I think I'll just have to keep coming back to find out! 😜

I really like their omelette rice. Would recommend it to anyone. Actually I tried coco in Japan, it tastes more like instant ramen quality version of curry but it definitely tastes better in the U.S. Being a little bit greedy, for the price, I wish the cutlet is bigger. It’s my third time coming back and like their chicken katsu egg omelette.

I love this place. I went for the first time ever all the way from Florida. And Allison made my experience a 10/10. She was patient, helpful, understanding, and made sure I was confident with my order since it was my first time. She made sure my food and experience was perfect. I’ll definitely come back

Simple and delicious. They specialize in curry and it shows. You can customize it with different add ons, and even adjust how much rice. The seating is a bit crammed for the 2 person tables but the staff are very friendly and helpful. Food is great and very filling.

Hostess was great - made sure we knew how many parties ahead of us, asked if we wanted a booth or table and joked around with the kids. Helped pass the long wait time. We got the big booth in the back, probably large enough for 6-8 adults. Only drawback was the back door was open and a cold breeze could be felt in the booth. Hostess closed the door, but then it was opened again. Maybe for the kitchen staff? Food was as expected - lowkey and like home. Nothing fancy and we don’t get the “nice” stuff - curry with pork cutlet is our go to. The curry is nice and a touch spicy even at “regular” level. You can pay more for higher spice levels if desired. You can also get larger portions of rice for a little bit extra. If you’re looking for volume, the large is quite large. We ended up taking th
