Curry House CoCo Ichibanya, KOREATOWN

The food is good, but literally always get food poisoning from their chicken. What's the point of bringing out food fast if you throw food safety out the window. I haven't had a problem with their other locations; just this one.

I absolutely love this place! I will always keep coming back. Amazing, delicious food! And excellent service. ♡

Good enough. Big difference from Japan. Place is ok and food too. The pork cutlet was a bit rubbery.

My friend brought me here and ordered for us. I didn’t know the name of the restaurant or the plate we shared. I just remember really enjoying the food, and taking a photo of it.

I had forgotten about this place until I saw the photos. I asked my friend for the name of this restaurant so I could leave this review.

Atmosphere was clean and quiet, kinda trendy. And service was excellent. I hope to go back. 5 stars.

Ordered a Pork Cutlet Omelet Curry with regular rice and regular spice. This is a nice warm comfort meal. The regular amount of spice is good even for those with a sensitive spice palate. You can go for more spice if you’d like and if you think your order wasn’t spicy enough, there are little spice shakers to add some more spice though it may not be as great if you ordered the exact spice ahead of time. The pork cutlet was a nice size and cut into good portions; I would have preferred it to be more crispier on the outside fresh from frying but the outer fried part was still nice. The pork inside was firm but has a nice qq to bite into. The omelet was the right consistency between soft and firm, cut apart very nicely every time. And the curry was nice and savory, served the right amount to be finished off between the cutlet, omelet and rice. Altogether, the presentation of this dish was very pleasing and simple in a way that made it feel like home. This location is in one of the most populated parts of Koreatown. It’s highly recommended to find other means of transport to get here. There is parking validation but I’m unsure where exactly to park as there are multiple lots and the validation only works for one. But the traffic is enough to deter people from driving here. If you’re able to walk to this location, it’s a great choice in the area. The interior is decorated with spices and signage of curry. The staff are quick on their feet and even at peak dinner time on a weekend, it wasn’t too hard to be seated but the place was nearly full.

Parking: Hard to consider parking. More likely to use public transit or walk here.

It's not like Japan's, however it's still good. My daughter and I love the pork katsu, I like it spicy level 5, and she'll get hers mild. My wife gets the chicken stew also mild, and you can forget the Naan, makes it even better. Highly recommend.

Parking: They do validate if you park in the parking structure next door.

This is the first place I went to when settling down after arriving. Cocoichi always hits the spot and never disappoints :)

I ordered take out. The food was just okay, a bit sparse on the curry sauce. But I will probably order again when I want Japanese curry.

Parking: Bad location for parking, there's not much.

This was my first stop after arriving to LA. I've had Cocoichi in Japan multiple times. This was a pretty close experience. I ordered it to go and it was packed very well. The curry was starting to separate after my short drive. I actually tried 2 other locations and this was my least favorite experience. It's still good, so I still recommend trying it out!

+editing review: Yoooooooo this must be a joke! I ordered fried chicken and minced beef cutlet... I am upset! The chicken pieces are ridiculously small, and it's just fried crumbles, not chicken! The beef cutlet is way smaller than before. So disappointed!!! Look at this, this is not chicken 💀

I eat their spicy to relieve my stress

Probably the worst customer service I’ve had in years. Found a clump of curry powder in the meal, so told a server and was met with a DGAF attitude and a “so what?” I don’t think it would be that difficult to own up to a mistake—also everyone working seemed miserable, stressed and unfriendly. I normally don’t write reviews but I absolutely felt like I had to after this experience, hope management does a better job with their staff, because this kind of customer service is simply unacceptable.

We had take out, and my friend said, “If I dined in, the quality of the food would have been better. The cutlet could have been crispier.”
