The food was good the curry they done a wonderful job. I will come back there again. The staff was amazing and friendly. Their service is amazing. I want the curry little bit spicy but the food was good when I was sitting there. It was really quiet and it is good to eat there and enjoy my meal 😊👍👍👍👍👍

“Best Katsu curry” in the GTA according to my son. He has tried a lot of katsu curry in the GTA and even in Japan. Right in the middle of J-Town. We loved everything that we tried and can’t wait to return to try other items from the menu.

Overall a lovely place tucked away in J-town.

The three of us was able to get a lovely seat by the large window near the back.

The portion sizing was great for us girlies. With a wide variety of tea and coffee options.

The staff was attentative and kind, and did not rush us to leave once we finished eating. We yapped and finished our drinks at our own leisure.

If you're in the area, I recommend swinging...
