About

This casual Japanese curry chain lets you choose rice portions, spice level and toppings, and reviews describe quick tablet or QR-code ordering with English menus. A vegetarian curry base and vegetable toppings can make a vegan meal, but several diners report meat or seafood in dishes they expected to be vegetarian, so confirm the base and preparation with staff.
