I got their handmade cutlet pork with the omlette on rice. I'm not sure what the difference is between the handmade pork vs the regular cutlet pork but it was more expensive. Taste was good but I feel like it is much tastier and also not as piping hot like in Japan. QR code to order but they also give wifi which is good for tourists.

I first saw Coco when I was in Taiwan, but for some reason I never tried it. But once I saw it here, I definitely had to go for it. I ordered the omelette rice curry with sliced beef, and it was everything I wanted and more. The curry was delicious and flavourful, the beef was super tender, and there was a cream sauce that gave it a nice tangy flavour. I can honestly say every bite was delicious, and I am already making plans to go back. With all the different options and combinations available, this is definitely the place to go for great curry.

I came here with a friend during lunch peak hours and we didn't have to wait at all. The food quality if very similar to other Izumi Curry locations. A good comparison is to CoCo Ichibanya. The tonkatsu is definitely better than CoCo, but I like the fact that you can choose the spicy level of your curry at CoCo. For fast food Japanese restaurant, it's worth a 4 star rating. However, this is not Tonkichi Tonkatsu, the price is quite different too.

Let me give this place a 3 stars. First, there is this hype for eating Japanese, and Japanese curry…read moreplus meat and nice cool tiger logo design is just so cool. I have wanted to come here for a while. It happened I am alone tonight and wandered around here. This is a good type of food to even eat alone. And they did design the place to serve some lone wolf, or lone tiger in this case. I have to say, the menu is not easy to understand. But soon when you figured out, it is actually not bad. I have picked the recommended Hungry Tiger to feed myself of my hunger. It looked kind of small, but it actually pretty filling. The Japanese rice is round and soft. Curry well cooked like he usual curry sauce, different from want the Sama curry at central, this is the traditional Japanese curry. Surprised that they did not ask for spicy level, probably not adjustable. The hungry tiger was actually only so so, I trusted that individually order would have been better. The problem with the dish is that they put fries on top. The fries are nothing special, but it fills you up, mob your rice and meat of the curry sauce and making it hard to navigate the food around. Chicken tastes good. Beef burger meat is ok. Pork was nothing special. The sausage taste okay but too little too few. And way add a bone back when sausage is designed to remove the bone. They serve beers and wine and sake. Probably best to avoid it. Don't think the environment is that targeted for alcohol. If you really want to drink, beer is okay, but standard Japanese draft is expected. Service is so so. Efficiency oriented. However, the food took longer than expected to arrive. Overall, I might come back but not too amazing.

Easy to order: the menu is basically a Curry/Tomato Sauce Choice + Protein/Vegetable + Sides Combo. They give you a LOT of sauce, so your rice will be swimming in the sauce, which is awesome actually, versus other more delicate ahem* stingier, Japanese curry places. The tonkatsu is solid and portions generous, the other meats are decent as well and you can add some vegetables (cabbage, corn etc) as sides if you are looking for fiber. There are full salads on offer, and full vegetarian curry is also possible, as my Indian friend found out (and liked); the fries are nothing special, save space for other stuff. I find the flavors heavier, tangier and slightly sweeter than the usual Japanese curry, which I like. I've tried all the other Japanese curry spots in Causeway Bay, and this is now the only spot I hit up if I'm craving for Japanese curry. A meal with a drink will set you back a bit less than HKD 200, not a bad deal for lunch/dinner in Causeway Bay.

Having just returned from Japan and craving curry, I knew it was about time that I try SAMA. After…read morea rigorous yoga session, we climbed up the steep steps to SAMA and to our delight, there were many tables available. Immediately after being seated, I took a look around the the interior, and spotted a Hitachino Nest Owl T-shirt! I asked and it costs HK$120. Quite pricey, hmm... But back to the food! You have option to choose your spice level, your curry soup base, and your meat / vegetable accompaniment. I ordered the level 5 coconut marathon chicken curry while my friend ordered a level 10 tomato-based hungry bear (with hamburger patty) curry. Both were SAMA-licious! I didn't need to order any extra veggies because the pepper, okra, eggplant, broccoli, carrot and half egg were pretty sufficient for me (a girl). If you're looking for quality curry, go to SAMA!

Located on the corner roundabout on Gough, this Sheung Wan hot spot (#1) has attracted quite a following to an otherwise quiet area of the neighborhood. Like most places in the city, SAMA is tiny. There are only a handful of tables to accommodate groups (which likely seat 20 at most), so I wouldn't be surprised if there were waits during good weather nights. The decor has a modern edge to it, along with the consistent corporate urbanized graphics one would expect from a Japanese chain. The staff speak English decently, but Canto is the way to go here. How the curry portion of the menu works: 1) Choose A Spice Level: Baby Bear (0-5), Adult Bear (6-15), Crazy Bear (16-30). 2) Choose A Soup Base: Tomato, Coconut, Prawn (Seafood flavor) 3) Choose A Curry Entreé: Chicken, Pork, Seafood, Vegetarian Options ranging $78-128 One can also choose additional toppings from extra meats (+$30), veggies (+$10), tempura (+$30), and eggs (+$10). The menu is available in English, Chinese, and Japanese. There is a nice selection of Asian craft beers as well as nice variety of sides. My group and I enjoyed a variety of curry dishes, with the most notable being the Oink Oink ($96) spice level 10 and Ocean Trophy ($108) spice level 15. There was one with the Vegetarian Bear ($78) but with a solid spice level of 20. The flavors are extremely potent and the spice is definitely no joke. I thought SE Asian curries gave me trouble, but the veggie curry had me feeling the sweat beads. I like the punishment. Our array of sides were also tasty. I enjoyed the Tempura add on, as well as the Curry Fries ($28), Shishitou Brussel Sprouts ($58), Hokkaido Spinach ($72), and Garlic Prawns ($72). I wasn't super crazy about the Spiced Chicken Karaage ($68), Hokkaido Corn Croquettes ($18), or their Nagoya Style Curry Wings ($28). A slight eyeroll to the gimmicky t-shirt and recipe books on display but I'm sure there are some serious fanboys / girls out there. Parking is limited but doable in this part of HK. They accept all credit cards and are open till just before midnight. ______________ (#1) Literally. No pun intended.

The weekday lunch time menu differs from the weekend lunch menu (which includes salad), but you can still find your favorite slow-cooked pork ribs, roasted chicken, curry with rice or udon, gyudon or oyakodon, the fan favorite of 7-types of vegetables, topped with an onsen egg that's perfectly cooked every time.

Inside is a small Japanese restaurant with a few tables, a homey vibe, and excellent sushi. We were immediately greeted by the friendly waiter, who seemed to be a combo waiter/manager/(maybe owner?) type -- it was just him and the chef working on a Saturday early evening. Arriving around 6:30-7 or so, we were seated immediately and only the second table in the restaurant. Although things picked up a bit by the time we left at 8-8:30, it was nice to see that you have a good chance at a walk-in table on a Saturday night. We ordered the Seaweed Salad with Vinegar (not my thing, but my wife loved it), Salmon and Yellowtail Nigiri, one Spicy Tuna Roll, one Spicy Scallop Roll and two Asahis and prepared to dig in. I was truly surprised at how good the sushi was -- not because I expected it to be bad, but because I did not expect it to be that good. The Salmon Nigiri in particular was fresh and sweet, and the Spicy Scallop Roll was nothing short of fabulous. They are served as an inside-out roll with scallop, crunchy bits, and a nick kick accompanied by spicy mayo on the bottom. Slathering the roll in the spicy mayo and dipping it in soy sauce made for a magnificent mouthful. It was so good that we ordered a second. The Spicy Tuna Roll was also quite good, but the Spicy Scallop Roll was the star for me. The waiter was friendly, funny and attentive, and really made you feel like you were having a low-key dinner in his living room. It's exactly the kind of place that I'm thrilled to have in the neighborhood for when I want to go out for dinner but don't really feel like making a big production of it. Excellent food, relaxed environment and a good value -- I'll be back, and often.
