Nippon Curry San Jose is a popular spot known for its authentic Japanese curry and crispy Katsu dishes. Customers appreciate the careful packaging, with curry kept separate from rice and Katsu, which helps maintain their crispness and juicy texture. The Pork Katsu Curry stands out as a favorite, featuring generous curry portions that cover the rice completely, along with tasty pickles. The curry is thick, fresh, and slightly spicy, reminding some visitors of their time in Japan. The potato croquettes are also well-liked and add to the meal’s appeal.
While the food quality and flavor are highly praised, some reviewers feel that the portions are small for the price, especially considering it operates as a ghost kitchen with no service staff. Extra charges for takeout are noted by some as unusual, but overall, the prices are considered reasonable given the quality. The atmosphere is minimal, with a small dining area, making it more suitable for quick meals or online orders. The staff is friendly and enthusiastic, contributing to a positive experience.
Overall, Nippon Curry San Jose is highly recommended as one of the best Japanese curry places in the Bay Area, especially for those seeking flavorful, authentic dishes and good value for money. Visitors look forward to trying more menu items and returning for repeat visits.
