Today, I went to watch a baseball game at Jingu Stadium. Since Shinbashi Station is a transfer station, I decided to have lunch within walking distance of Shinbashi, so I came to "The KARI" restaurant. It is located about an 8-minute walk from the south exit of Shinbashi Station (Karasumoriguchi). I arrived around 1:00 PM on a Friday afternoon. The restaurant was full, with 4 customers waiting. Within 5 minutes, a seat became available and I was able to sit down. The restaurant has a counter with about 10 seats in an "L" shape. When I first visited, I was unsure whether I should wait inside or outside, but the staff kindly guided me inside to wait. The menu determines the type of curry based on spiciness - there is spicy beef curry and slightly spicy chicken curry, for example. I ordered what is likely the most popular dish, the "Spicy Beef Curry Large Size" for 1,160 yen including tax. You can choose from "2 types" of side dishes. It seemed like the most common choice among regulars was "pickled cabbage," but I chose the "spiced sautéed potatoes." It arrived in about 3 minutes. The curry looked dry with spices on top! The beef pieces were large, about the size of a piece of candy, and there were about 8 of them - very satisfying. On the other hand, ingredients like onions and carrots were not visible, so you can simply enjoy the curry as it is. I took a bite. Delicious! And quite spicy! But not just spicy, it has a good aroma of spices and umami. Once you start eating, you can't stop! It was the classic curry I had been looking for, rich in spices. Spicy yet delicious! Delicious yet spicy. There are no unnecessary ingredients, just curry, rice, meat, and occasionally the side dish of sautéed potatoes, making it a combination that I finished in about 7 minutes. A heartwarming moment was when a young staff member who mainly took orders noticed the napkin was about to fly away in the wind, and gently placed a weight from the order slip on it. This small gesture allowed me to focus on enjoying the delicious curry without worrying about the napkin flying away. Since it's within walking distance of Shinbashi, even if you don't have a specific reason, I highly recommend stopping by this wonderful curry restaurant on your way to transfer or for any other occasion. If it were closer, I would definitely become a regular customer.

Beef Curry (spicy) priced at 1000 yen is served only during weekday daytime at a curry restaurant in Hamamatsucho. The portion can be increased by 1.3 times for an additional charge. The curry has a soupy texture with a subtle yet rich flavor. It is not greasy and has a smooth texture. While eating, it doesn't feel too spicy, but the spiciness kicks in after finishing the meal. Mixing the potatoes with the curry enhances the taste. It is an Indian curry with a strong ethnic flavor.

It's been so long since I last ate in a restaurant. I arrived after 12 o'clock and there were 4 people waiting outside. The turnover was fast, so I was seated in about 10 minutes. Today, I decided to go with the beef curry. The curry had a thin sauce that was easy to drink, and the spiciness was sharp but didn't linger too much. I didn't feel heavy or bloated after eating, so it was refreshing. The cumin potatoes were also delicious. I think I prefer potatoes over cabbage when it comes to beef dishes. The location and opening hours may be a bit tricky, but I would like to come back again. Thank you for the meal! ★

I visited the restaurant around 12:30 on a weekday and was the fourth person waiting outside. After about 8 minutes, I was able to enter and was seated after waiting for 2 minutes inside. I ordered the slightly spicy chicken curry for 890 yen. It was a thin sauce curry with a strong spice flavor, and the chicken was tender and moist. The side dish provided was sautéed potatoes, but it seems you can also choose pickled cabbage. A regular customer ordered the large portion of chicken curry for 1050 yen with less rice and pickled cabbage. It seems like there are various ways to enjoy the meal, and I found that aspect interesting.

I had my first visit to this restaurant during a business trip to Tokyo. I waited a bit inside, but the turnover was quick and I was seated right away. I was indecisive about the menu, but I decided to order the beef curry at the top, which was recommended as the signature dish. It arrived quickly and I was satisfied. The beef was tender without any fat, and there were plenty of chunks of meat in the curry, which made me very happy. The curry had a simple and straightforward taste, but the spices were well-balanced and delicious.

13:30 - One person in line ahead. The place seems crowded with office workers during the 12 o'clock hour. When ordering, they didn't mention that the beef curry is spicy as some people have written. They asked which side dish I wanted, but when I asked for both options, they said cabbage or potatoes, so I chose cabbage. Maybe they mistook me for a regular customer. It was my first time there. There were four people in the kitchen. It seems like they need this many during peak hours. Right now, they look idle. Served in 2-3 minutes. A bottomless huge plate. Kind of difficult to eat. The curry was the watery type, and the sweetness of the onions stood out. They said it was spicy, but it was moderately spicy. It didn't sting the tongue, but warmed the body from the inside. The beef was cut small and tender, surprisingly delicious. The pickled cabbage tasted a bit odd. Due to the location, it was a fast-paced restaurant with a turnover of about 10 minutes.

I unexpectedly visited this curry restaurant, which has been chosen as one of the top 100 restaurants multiple times, because "Kosho" nearby was closed due to a typhoon. I ordered the beef curry (1,000 yen), and it arrived in about 2 to 3 minutes. It was labeled as spicy, and it was quite hot. The sauce was a bit watery and had a nice spice to it, which made it delicious. I ordered a regular portion, but it was a bit small for me. Many customers seemed to order a large portion. The atmosphere was more like a quick stand-and-eat soba shop rather than a place to leisurely enjoy your meal. The staff members were somewhat unfriendly.

I arrived a little late for lunch. When I walked in, there were already four people inside, but about half of the seats were empty so I was able to sit down easily. At first, I ordered the "Beef" dish from the menu, but when they asked me, "It's quite spicy, are you okay with that?" I got scared and quickly changed my order to "Chicken". The food came out quickly since they worked in shifts. The potato shown in the picture can also be replaced with cabbage. I heard this from someone who came later, so it might be something for regular customers. The tender chicken was very delicious, and the extra large portion of rice disappeared in no time (*^^*). I felt like trying other dishes on the menu too.

It was delicious. I ordered the curry. It was a light curry with a good balance of spices. It was not a rich, thick curry, but one that you could easily eat. It was slightly different from my personal preference, so this is why I gave this score. Thank you for the meal!

I visited here for the first time in a long time between Shimbashi and Daimon. I usually go for the beef, but this time I tried the chicken curry. The rich and deep flavor of the curry was unchanged and I thoroughly enjoyed the flavorful chicken. The Indian person sitting next to me mentioned that they recently returned from India but found Japan to be much hotter. haha

Surely it must be a popular restaurant. I had to eat while feeling the presence of customers waiting behind the counter seats close to my back. Even though it was curry rice, my shoulders stiffened a little. The curry cost 1,000 yen for beef curry. There was a note inside the store mentioning 12 or 24 types (I forgot) of spices blended together. I personally prefer a bit less spice to have the flavor more balanced. There were also customers buying takeout from the window, so I will choose that option next time.

I visited a curry specialty shop located between Shinbashi and Onarimon for lunch on a weekday. The shop has an L-shaped counter with 9 seats, and there is also a take-out window. I ordered the spicy beef curry for 1000 yen, and it was brought to me in about 3 minutes. The light and smooth soup curry has a deep spice flavor, and you can feel a gradual spiciness afterwards. The potatoes on the side have a good cumin aroma, which helps balance out the spiciness. It's a popular shop with a line even inside, so I quietly enjoyed my meal, and as soon as I finished eating, I paid at the counter. In a competitive eating mood, my stomach was quickly filled up. Thank you for the meal.

I had been wanting to try this place for a while. I happened to pass by around lunchtime, so I decided to stop in. Luckily, there was one seat available and I was seated right away. It was my first time here, so I ordered the top menu item, the beef curry. The portion and spiciness were just right, and I could understand why it's so popular. I will definitely come back!

I checked out at 11:00 because the restaurant was near the hotel I stayed at and waited for it to open. It was supposed to open at 11:30, but it remained closed even at 11:32. When I gently opened the door, a young male staff member rudely said, "Not yet." I waited, and the restaurant finally opened 2 minutes later. I ordered beef curry and chicken curry with a friend, but unfortunately, they were disappointing. The curry was very watery, which some people might like, but I prefer a more European-style curry. Both the beef and chicken were tender, but the flavor seemed to be lacking. The chicken became dry and flaky towards the end of chewing. It was just spicy without much umami or depth. Also, my friend realized they had forgotten their phone about 3 minutes after leaving the restaurant. When we went back to retrieve it, the older female staff member angrily asked, "What is it?" When we explained the situation, the young male staff member handed us the phone grumpily, saying, "Be more careful." The female staff member also said, "Be more careful." It was a very disappointing lunch, regardless of the taste. I regretted wasting my money and decided never to go back. I should have gone to "Nasu Oyaji" in Shitamachi instead.

Today, I visited The Curry, a popular curry restaurant in Onarimon. I arrived around 11:35 am on a Friday and there were already 6-7 people waiting outside. The restaurant opened at 12:00 pm and we were seated. I ordered the beef curry and was asked by the staff if I was okay with it being quite spicy. I agreed, as I have a decent tolerance for spicy food. The curry was served in about 5 minutes and it looked quite spicy. I took a bite and indeed, it was quite spicy as warned by the staff. Those who are not fond of spicy food may want to choose a different option. The curry was not heavy like Western-style curries, but had a nice kick from the spices and was delicious. The restaurant had a good turnover of customers, with people coming and going quickly, so it may not be ideal for those looking for a leisurely meal. Thank you for the meal.

It was located about a 10-minute walk south from Shinbashi Station. I ordered the chicken curry, which was more like soup curry and not very spicy, so it was quite easy to eat. It wasn't too crowded even during lunchtime, so I was able to sit right away. I would like to go again.

I went a little further on my bike and ended up at a curry restaurant, which is rare for me since I usually go to ramen shops. I searched for a place with high ratings on Tabelog and found one with hardly any people waiting outside, but inside there were five people lined up. I didn't hesitate with the limited menu options and ordered the beef curry in a large serving, with fried potatoes on the side. The curry was flavorful and not too spicy, which made it easy to eat. The beef was tender and almost fell apart. Even though it was a large serving, it seemed like the restaurant held back a bit, maybe because they saw me. Next time I'll try the chicken curry. Overall, it was delicious.

After visiting the hospital, I decided to have lunch on my way back. I stumbled upon The Curry, a small shop with only counter seating available. I was lucky to find an open seat. I ordered the second spiciest chicken curry for ¥890, with less rice. The curry was more like a soup, with chunks of chicken and no other ingredients. It came with cumin-flavored potatoes on the side, which paired well with the curry. The curry was spicy and flavorful, with a thin soup-like consistency. It was different from typical soup curry but still delicious.

This is a curry ladder. After having lunch at "Ganji" in Toranomon, I decided to go to this restaurant only available on weekdays for lunch as well. I visited on Tuesday at 11:56. I entered the restaurant quickly and sat at the counter in the back. I ordered the menu I had decided on in advance: Beef Curry (spicy) for 1,000 yen. The dish arrived in less than a minute. The curry sauce was a thin type. I am not very good with spicy food, but I found it to be less spicy than I expected and enjoyed it. The spiciness gradually builds up. The aroma of the spices was nice! The beef was tender and well-cooked. The potatoes next to the rice were soft and moist. I believe they could stand as a dish on their own. I finished the meal in no time. Thank you for the meal.

After finishing the night shift at 1 PM, it was still not time to go home. Feeling like getting some curry to energize myself, I walked for about 10 minutes under the scorching sun to visit this restaurant for the first time. I ordered the classic Beef Curry (spicy) and unknowingly got the large serving. A few minutes later, the dish arrived. As I took a few bites, I felt the light and slightly sour taste, followed by a gradual kick of spiciness. It was tasty. The pickled cabbage on the side was a great match, and quite spicy too. I started sweating. After finishing the meal, I left the restaurant feeling satisfied and refreshed. Drinking plenty of water, as I walked in the shade, the cool breeze felt comforting on my curry-sweated scalp.

Despite the ongoing pandemic, I visited this restaurant for lunch after a long time. As usual, there was a long line outside the shop. I ordered the Chicken Curry (extra large). The curry was thin and packed with spices, and it was really delicious. I feel like this curry is the most effective when I have a hangover (lol).
