Ha DiemSeptember 26, 2014One of the best Japanese curry places I've been to. Huge portions, awesome staff and great food. I love the omu curry and green tea parfait.
Super cozy, super Japanese spot that only serves Japanese comfort food (don't come here looking for sushi!). Love the Omu Rice (fried rice wrapped in omelette) or Omu Curry, plus the peach aloe drink!
嘉豪 徐July 10, 2015Excellent homey feel! Japanese comfort food at its best with a sweet home environment! Go for the omurice and relax with some friends! A great Far-East treat in SoHo!
Simon HSeptember 1, 2014I love this little place. Chill with some Japanese katei (home style) cooking, courtesy of hiroko's kitchen. Try a Japanese classic combo: katsu curry with melon soda.. Delish!
Betty TNovember 22, 2012A homey place with SUPER friendly staff serving Japanese comfort foods. I highly recommend the gratin dishes and napalitan spaghetti. Try the fruit ice cream with coffee jelly too!
Monica YeungJuly 4, 2012It was really hot today, so we decided to go in without knowing what to expect. The decor was homey; service was quick and nice; and they make one of the best omelette rice dishes in town.
Sherry LiMarch 18, 2015Japanese style western food. Love the gratin and dorias here. Desserts are yummy too. Cute decor and you can read manga too!
stephiedooSeptember 23, 2012The casseroles and omu rice are pretty good, but come for the comfortable atmosphere and delicious coffee/teas/desserts!
Jo 🔑October 17, 2012Everything we had was great! Their Katsu Curry is a pork katsu, but if you ask they may have chicken!
Justin KalifowitzOctober 11, 2013Low key alternate Japanese universe. Katsu curry. Tea. J Pop tunes + art. For fans of Tokyo's A to Z Cafe.
Cute Japanese cafe with home cooked dishes. Love the Tarako spaghetti, sandwhiches and omu rice! And they have royal milk tea!

Wen FuJune 10, 2014Typical Japanese cafe food, lovely lovely interior, makes me want to stay there the whole morning. (I went for brunch.)
Tasty curry, interesting drink and smoothie selection, siphon coffee. Nice and cozy.
j kirklandOctober 11, 2014Tonkatsu curry is amazing and a wonderful quiet spot in soho. Great for cheap dates.
Steven YMarch 3, 2014They serve legit coffee - all brewed with a syphon drip; also, their omurice is solid
Quick and solid home style Japanese cooking. Cute atmosphere, nice spot to eat and hang out/read!
Lori LuoAugust 10, 2014Find homey, American-inspired Japanese dishes, including a curry omurice, casseroles, and pasta with hot dogs.
Hoshi M.August 10, 2013Green tea parfait was good but it melted way too quickly, making me have to wolf it down. Ambience is quiet and friendly :)
Joonseok OhMay 10, 2013Can't go wrong with any of the dishes here but Hamburg Curry Doria was a real treat
Curry Omu Rice and Hamburg Doria are my favorites! Try either one or both!
Lauren SantiagoMarch 2, 2013Crab shumai to start and curry omu rice that hits the spot. Will def be back!
Joshua BerkowiczDecember 7, 2012Siphon coffee. One of the only places in NYC. Worth a trip just for that.
Jeffrey KaoAugust 14, 2015If I had a Japanese grandmother named Hiroko, this is probably what the place would look like. Homey vibes.
I love "hamburg curry" or "hamburg curry Doria" here - today I'm having Spaghetti Napolitan for a change.

Ava LuApril 24, 2011I got the Curry Omu :) and the green tea ice cream parfait... They are pretty big size so take your time!
Kat EganFebruary 4, 2011Love the Katsu pork curry over rice. Matcha green tea latte and custard for desert.
Josh RhodeNovember 7, 2014"What are you doing?" — Waiting for a table.. — "You cannot bring outside drink in" — It's...coffee. I'm going to order food and drinks at the table. — "No, we take your coffee then." — Yeah. I left.- Amazing comfort homestyle Japanese food. Must try the curry katsu.
