Got the chicken katsu curry with brown rice. The portion size was big, I couldn't finish the rice. The curry was good and had a good kick at spice level 2. Chicken katsu was cooked perfectly. Friendly staff.

Delicious chicken Katsu curry rice
Really yummy, good portions that justify the price, and great variety of Japanese dishes. Also a good selections of add ones for most dishes and al la carte options. Not a lot of restaurants like this anymore and hope this place sticks around in Public Market. I highly suggest the Katsu Chicken Curry Udon w/Sunny Up egg. I think it’s one of the better value dishes.

I ordered Tegone Cheese in Hamburg Steak Curry Rice.
Maybe the steak was too chilled, it took them 23-24 mins to cook.
The staff noticed my long waiting time so I am not complaining about the service.
However, when it was already.... Who took my cheese? It's not even half a slice of cheese inside. (See pictures)
I can accept the size of the steak; I can accept no Fukujinzuke; I can accept zero side.
But I cannot accept no cheesy filling in my steak for $20!
I ate other dishes in other locations and they were good.
Stay away from Cheese in Hamburg Steak Curry Rice. I made the mistake so that you don't need to order it. Absolutely not worth.
At last, the video (3 weeks ago) shows cheesy filling coming out is NOT true! Otherwise I won't leave this not so happy review.

I got the karaage chicken curry with 3 of 3 spice level and it was amazing. Savory curry, juicy chicken and the spice was a slow building burn that I very much enjoyed!

Ordered curbside and they never came out. Also asked for utensils and napkins, they didn’t give me any.

Restaurantji Recommends
We have been there couple times since it opened.
I really like Teishoku (Japanese set meal) in general but I always had hard time to find an authentic Teishoku place around East Bay.
Demiya not only has very authentic Teishoku (I order Karaage) but Japanese curry.
I have also tried Omurice which is also very delicious and great portion.
The other reason I really like Demiya is that their dishes have a lot of details that you probably will not pay attention to but that’s the things make their dishes really close to authentic Japanese Yoshoku. (The salad, pickle, meat, and rice also how those were sorted…) It’s hard to run small business this day especially after pandemic. So when a lot of restaurants are trying to cutting things from their dishes, I’m glad Demiya tries to keeping those small things in their dishes.
I hope they can run the business long in public market.
If you get bored on Super Duper, Pig in a Pickle, or Koja Kitchen next time, please give Demiya a try.
