Came here so I could compare the curry to Zen Curry~!!!
The place was totally empty but very cozy inside. Their menus are quite creative looking haha We got the lunch special curry ($9.99) with chicken katsu and hamburger steak.. And some Yuzu soda to wash it all down with.. The curry plates came with the soup of the day which was some creamy corn soup and a little side salad that was ice cold. I guess if you get the lunch special curry you can only go up to spicy level 3 but that was more than enough spice for me! The yuzu soda comes in a big mason jar it's more bitter than sweet but I liked it... Usually $5 but I used my 25% off check in offer ;]]] The server was very polite and attentive and he even brought out some hot sauce and pickled onions for us.. I think they are just a little bit more expensive than Zen but the complimentary side salad and soup make up for that difference..
Over all I think Zen curry is more pleasing to my palette. And I love how they have all the toppings at the table readily available to you. The chicken is also more tender at Zen. But if you like spicy definitely try out Cafe de Japon and also if you don't want to wait for a table because it was empty when we went there~!!! haha
