Curry Hyuga in Burlingame is one of the best curry spots in the bay area We ordered the Beef Hayashi OmRice and the Katsu Curry, and both were delicious. The curry is rich, flavorful, and the katsu was crispy and juicy. The Beef Hayashi Om-Rice was also a nice balance. And the prices are really good for the quality and portions. You get a satisfying meal without breaking the bank. Definitely a spot I'd come back to. read more

Curry Hyuga - Chicken katsu came with rice, cabbage and potatoes salad to cleanse palette: $19. Corn soup w/croutons. - Japanese Curry Near Me - Burlingame, California

This place is so cute! Parking not too bad on the side streets. We were seated at a table for 6 quickly around 1:30pm. The service was amazing -- one super efficient waiter handled pretty much the whole room with a manager. Very attentive water refills and very accessible. The food came out so quickly and was delicious! Chicken katsu curry is $18 and generously portioned. I got the katsu rice plate (no curry sauce, but a sweet BBQ-ish katsu sauce) which came with a pile of cabbage salad, pickled cucumber salad, marinara spaghetti (somewhat inexplicably, but they do specialize in Japanese spaghetti here), rice, and miso soup for $19. A good deal! Chicken was tender and moist. The chicken katsu udon has a good amount of spice and flavor; just note it's on the spicy side. Also really appreciate the sesame seed grinder, the assortment of peppers and spices at the table you could add, and that there is a self-serve napkin dispenser. Those little things make a difference. read more

I'm a regular here now. This spot is one of the best curry places in the Bay. It's authentic, house made, and super delicious. The karaage appetizer is a must try, it's juicy, tender, and crispy perfection. The katsu curry is so comforting and rich. read more

Was visiting during a work trip and was craving some Katsu curry. Curry Hyuga is a wonderful place with great service and tasteful food. The Chicken Katsu was a large portion with some great flavor. The Teppangi chicken came out sizzling and packed with flavor. The spices they have are also a great touch if you want to add some additional heat. Would return again next time I'm visiting the area! read more

Curry Hyuga - Chicken Katsu Curry Rice - Japanese Curry Near Me - Burlingame, California

One of my favorite curry places in the Bay Area. They give you quite a bit of food for an affordable price, meaning it's good value here especially if you want leftovers. All dishes come with lots of curry and rice, along with your chosen protein and potato salad. I usually order the chicken cutlet/katsu dishes, but their omurice is also tasty, albeit slightly too buttery for me. Service is quick and helpful, although our server was a little impatient and gruff. There's seating inside for about 20-25 people, and I usually find I don't need to make reservations or arrive early to get seating. read more

Curry Hyuga - Double Menchi Katsu Curry Rice - Japanese Curry Near Me - Burlingame, California

I've frequented here on and off over the past decade and I've moved away and every time I visit San Francisco I make sure I get my curry fix here. The service, hospitality and food quality is always on point without fail. The interior has this old homey vibe that feels like an old diner that's good for groups or solo. My all time favorites are the chicken karaage curry, corn soup and potato croquette. Always delicious, always consistent and amazing until the very last bite. read more

Absolutely delicious Japanese curry. First off, the pork cutlet was tender on the inside with a nice crispy batter. The curry was very tasty without being salty and blended perfectly with the pork. The pork cut was generous and fresh. Garlic edamame was the ideal compliment. All in all, a very satisfying and enjoyable meal. read more

We usually go to the location in Cupertino since we're down in the South Bay most of the time. But this location is actually closer to where we live - right across the San Mateo bridge. Curry Hyuga is just our favorite Japanese Curry place to go to. This time we tried our curries with egg dome and it was delicious. I got the Pork Katsu Curry with added Fried Kaki and Egg dome and my partner for the Chicken Katsu Curry with egg dome! We came at a good time - it wasn't so busy so we sat down pretty quickly! Be careful about adding the extra spices. A little goes a long way. I like to add a dash of the Habanero and the Wiri Wiri spices to my curry sauce for that extra kick! read more

We came here after a card show in the area. This place was very clean and is located in downtown Burlingame. The food was really good and smelled good right when you walked in. We were seated pretty quickly and ordered right away. We got a signature katsu curry and a mental cream cheese udon. It took about 15 minutes to get the food. The curry was so flavorful and delicious. I liked the udon also, but the curry was the clear winner. The katsu was also cooked perfectly and it was very crispy. read more

The weather has been getting a lil cold and wanted something that will warm us. We got seated right away and you'll order to the server. They were super kind to explain the menu and very attentive. I was very surprised with the curry because the initial taste was sweet then it settled down into a delicious taste of Japanese curry. I've never really taste anything like this before in terms of curry and I very much enjoyed it. Also love it how they have 5 different spices that you can sprinkle in the curry - I tried level 1 which is good. Katsu was well made. Also ordered their new "cream cheese udon" - Wow! Indeed it was creamy, chewy, with the choice of bacon and mushroom, it made the dish wonderful. read more

Curry Hyuga - Chicken Katsu Curry Rice - Japanese Curry Near Me - Burlingame, California

Food: 3.5-4.0 | Service: 4.95 | Ambiance: 3.75 CURRY HYUGA BURLINGAME was a long time in waiting to try. Japanese Curry, a sweet and mild curry, is very different from Indian and Chinese/Thai curry. Usually served w/crispy Tonkatsu and a cabbage salad, it can be hard to find. Finding good Japanese curry can be just as difficult. CHB satisfies on the Japanese curry savoriness front. While it's nothing fancy (that extends to their decor), it is housemade and delicious. Waitstaff was brisk and courteous. Was advised to not order more than what I had...he was right. Had leftovers to take home! Ordered the signature ORIGINAL KATSU CURRY w/pork. Other option is chicken. Steamed rice in a Japanese eatery is always top notch, always perfect and generous in portion here. The Tonkatsu was crispy but a tad short of tender, but tasty enough to dip in the accompanying Japanese curry sauce. I might ask for the curry sauce on the side next time. Cabbage salad, traditionally a huge portion was a small offering cushioning the Tonkatsu. Accompanied by a small scoop of house made potato salad and pickled veggies. The hot Tonkatsu, steamed rice and Japanese curry sauce was a great combo for me, a very filling and satisfying meal! CH offers a tabletop varied selection of chili peppers: Pequin, Wiri Wiri, Ichimi, Jalapẽno, Orange Habanero. I did a light sprinkling of the traditional Japanese Ichimi pepper to add a touch of heat and that was fine. Signature ORIGINAL KATSU CURRY was a great start to this menu tasting. I'll be back to try their DOUBLE MENCHI CURRY, KARAAGE CURRY, ASSORTED VEGGIE CURRY, KATSU CURRY UDON. CURRY HYUGA BURLINGAME is also one of the few places that has Omurice on its menu. A Japanese omelet w/rice or noodles inside. Their version is HAYASHI OM-RICE. I will definitely be back to try this! See you there! read more

I always have a great time coming to Curry Hyuga. I was pleasantly surprised that there was a wait on Saturday night, but I get that they are becoming more and more popular I always get the set with karaage. Their karaage is always moist and yummy and the sauce that comes with it is delicious. I love the powders available on the table too for spice. #2 and #5 are my favorites. The one thing that I wish they had for Japanese comfort food are crab cream croquettes. Usagi in San Mateo used to be the only place for Japanese comfort food near here and they had the best crab cream croquettes. No one else has them and I could totally see Curry Hyuga carrying them in the future because they are so innovative and unafraid of new items. Can't wait to come for lunch and try the sandos! read more

There is a reason Curry Hyuga was named one of Yelp's Top 100 Restaurants in the United States. It is one of those rare places that completely lives up to the hype. If you plan on visiting during the weekend, expect a wait. The line can get pretty long, but after eating here multiple times, I can confidently say it is worth every minute. Some restaurants are all hype, but Curry Hyuga earns every bit of the praise it receives. The katsu is consistently excellent. Whether you order the chicken or the pork, the breading is always perfectly crisp while the meat stays incredibly juicy and tender. That level of consistency is something I really appreciate because every visit has been just as good as the last. The curry is what keeps me coming back. It is rich, comforting, and packed with layers of flavor. Every bite has a depth and complexity that makes it stand out from your typical Japanese curry. It is the kind of meal that leaves you thinking about it long after you have finished. One thing I also really enjoy is the atmosphere. The restaurant strikes a great balance between being lively and comfortable. There is enough energy in the room that it feels welcoming and full of life, but it is still quiet enough to have an easy conversation without having to raise your voice. I often find myself stopping in for a solo meal when I am in the area, and it is the perfect place to enjoy a peaceful lunch or dinner by myself. At the same time, it works just as well when I bring friends and family. It is one of those rare restaurants that feels right no matter who you are dining with. The staff has also been nothing but friendly and welcoming every time I have visited. Even when the restaurant is packed, they stay attentive and keep things moving with a smile. If you have been debating whether to wait in line, take this as your sign. Curry Hyuga earned its place among the Top 100 Restaurants in the country for a reason, and it continues to prove why with every visit. I will happily keep coming back. read more

This location is great! Inside is so cute and service was amazing! All the servers were very friendly and attentive! The food was good (as expected). We tried the double menchi katsu, which was super tender and flavorful (will def get next time)!! And of course I had to add oysters (my favorite)! The shiso mentaiko cream spaghetti was amazing......such a good blend of flavors in a creamy (but light) sauce. So good!!! Will definitely be getting that again too! Overall, we love this chain and will continue to come back! read more

3.5 stars, rounded up, because prices are pretty reasonable. The milk tea was way too sweet (it's more like condensed milk with a splash of assam). The breading on katsu seem more dense than I remember. This was my go to curry place but I think they're more similar to other curry places around the area these days. Friendly service and very responsive to the service button on each table. Comfortable booth seating. I got the oyster katsu curry, a winter special item. It hit the spot. I do feel like I could get similar fried oysters elsewhere though. I'm sure I'll come back but expectations will be tempered. read more

My boyfriend and I tried this place on a whim after seeing good reviews, and it definitely did not disappoint! We went around 5 PM on a Tuesday, and it was nice and quiet, so we were seated right away. We started with the teppanji and then ordered the katsu curry and karaage curry. The curry was rich, flavorful, and honestly reminded us of our trip to Japan. Portions were generous, and I liked that you can customize with extra meat, veggies, or even add an egg. The real standout, though, was the teppanji chicken--it was so good that we'd come back just for that alone. Overall, great food, good service, and a clean space. Definitely a spot we'll be returning to! read more

Curry Hyuga has been on our must try list for a long time (years) and a chilly night in the Peninsula was a perfect opportunity for something cozy and filling! They are located on Broadway in Burlingame in the heart of a ton of local shopping and dining; there is a good amount of metered street parking but it's often busy. If you go a block or two away from Broadway, there are a few lots (also metered) and some free street parking-just be mindful of people's driveways. Curry Hyuga is definitely a cozy spot-there are around 5-6 alcoves with two tables each, and can seat groups of 2 to ~10 in one of these areas. We didn't have to wait long to be seated, but they were decently busy with in-person patrons and takeaway orders on a Monday evening. As usual, the #YEShusband and I had perused the menu and went in with a plan to share and try as many things as possible! I hadn't really had Japanese curry, so I was particularly intrigued by the description of it being more of an umami gravy-like sauce. Here's what we ordered: - Corn Pottage Soup (super rich sweet corn, spice, milk, and chicken consomme): Super creamy and flavorful. This was a reasonable size to share between two people. - Teppanji (sizzling chicken with onion infused namban sauce): WOW! We knew we were in for something delicious after reading the description, but this one exceeded our expectations. This karaage style chicken is served topped with a hot (temperature-wise) green onion oil on top. The flavor is next level! - Signature Katsu Curry (hand breaded pork loin): Iconic dish and Curry Hyuga executes it perfectly. Their curry sauce is savory, just the right balance of saucy and gravy-like consistency, and goes well with everything! I should have ordered an extra side of the curry-rookie mistake! This comes with a half plate of rice, a side of their potato salad and fukujin pickles which provide a cool contrast. - Karaage Curry (Japanese shio-dashi marinated fried chicken with house blended crust): It was nice to try their karaage on its own-the breading is flavorful and not too thick. It's served with a creamy, aioli type sauce which was a nice option to dip the chicken in. This also comes with a half plate of rice, a side of their potato salad and fukujin pickles. - Potato Korokke (side): this is similar to a potato croquette: a mashed potato ball mixed with corn and onion, coated in panko, and fried. It was so yummy and had a great flavor. Great side to dip in extra curry sauce! I highly recommend coming to Curry Hyuga for a hearty, homestyle meal that is also reasonably priced! Huge thank you to the Curry Hyuga team for a tasty first visit- can't wait to come back for more! IG: @waitingtoeat read more

Yum! Big portions and sweet staff. Our party was able to walk in on a Sunday and get seated right away. I went with the chicken katsu curry and added on a potato croquette. The curry is savory and I love that the katsu comes over a bed of shredded cabbage as sometimes you need a little veggie. The katsu itself was juicy, and the batter was perfect not too thick and clung well to the meat. Would recommend the croquette, it's like a fried mashed potato ball with corn inside. Definitely come here for a warm and hearty meal! I was even able to bring come leftovers :) read more

Curry Hyuga, 1204 Broadway, Burlingame, CA94010. Japanese curry, comfort food. This eatery had 4.6* rating out of 1,099 reviews at the time of writing. That speaks volume. The restaurant is small, nothing fancy. It was packed the whole time that we were there. Patrons came in and out quickly as the food were served quickly without compromising on quality. Servers were friendly and attentive. The breaded meat (karage chicken etc) were crispy on the outside while juicy on the inside. The curry sauce was savoury, flavorful and well balanced. It's different than other Japanese curry from my past experience which were usually sweet. I would come again when I'm in the area. read more

Really loved this spot! First, the portion sizes alone make it such a great value. You get so much food for the price. I ordered the signature curry with a hard-boiled egg, and everything about it was so good. The rice was cooked perfectly, the curry was rich and flavorful, and the katsu was super crispy. We also ordered the chicken karaage, and it was just as good. The portion size was also huge for an appetizer, and every piece was juicy and well-seasoned. The location is convenient, the service was friendly and efficient, and everything moved quickly. We were seated immediately, someone took our order immediately after sitting and the food arrived just as quickly. Would definitely recommend! read more

Curry Hyuga - Katsu with curry with a side of egg - Japanese Curry Near Me - Burlingame, California

I've been to Curry Hyuga in Burlingame about 4-5 times now, and every single visit has lived up to a 5-star experience. It's one of those spots that's just consistently dialed in, food, service, and overall vibe never miss! The ambiance is warm and casual with a cozy Japanese diner feel. Nothing overly fancy, but clean, comfortable, and perfect whether you're grabbing a quick meal or sitting down and taking your time. It always feels welcoming :D !! Signature Katsu Curry (with egg) This is my go-to every time. The curry is rich, savory, and has that deep slow-cooked flavor that just coats everything perfectly. Not too heavy, not too sweet--just balanced. The katsu itself is crispy on the outside and super juicy on the inside. The breading holds up even with the curry, which I appreciate because nothing's worse than soggy katsu. Adding the egg takes it up another level. Once you break it and mix it into the curry and rice, it makes everything creamier and even more indulgent. Rice & Sides The rice is always cooked perfectly and soaks up the curry really well. The pickles and potato salad on the side are small touches but add a nice contrast to the richness of the dish. What keeps me coming back is the consistency. It tastes just as good every single time, which is honestly rare. Service is always smooth, food comes out quickly, and the whole experience feels effortless, the elder couple who helps serves everyone always has smiles on their faces! Definitely one of my go-to comfort food spots in the area. If you're craving katsu curry, this is the place read more

Came here on a whim one day with family and was so happy I came. The interior is very clean and cozy with nice servers. I really love their pork katsu curry, their mentaiko cream udon, and honestly all of their signature lemonades.

If you love spice like me, I recommend habanero or spicier. read more

Got lucky and was able to find a parking spot in a lot nearby. The curry was really good! Solid curry to rice ratio. I also enjoyed the crispy chicken katsu.

This is my favorite Japanese curry restaurant in the entire bay area. The meat is so-so but the curry is amazing. It has the right amount of contrast with the meat and white rice. Too bad some of it spilled all over the plastic bag while I was transporting it. The food came out quick at around 4:30pm on a Sunday. Pork curry $17, karaage chicken appetizer $8.50 and potato salad $5.50 goes well together. Good job my friends at Curry Hyuga. read more

I am so happy to have found this place on Yelp! We were craving something along the lines of Coco Ichibanya from Tokyo and found Curry Hyuga. What they don't do is the vegetables like potato and carrots but they make up for it with the chicken cutlet and tasty curry sauce. We asked for the chicken katsu curry with extra pickles and a side of potato croquette. It was so frickin good and the service was so friendly! We've gone back two times now in the last week. The wait wasn't too bad and it's a decent space inside. The interior is nicely lit and gives off a very Asian feel.

It's hard to find a place these days that specializes in Japanese curry only that tastes just as delicious as here! I like how the order comes with potato salad and radish. For those that want the extra spice, there are different pepper powders you can add to your curry. I am definitely coming back and will continue bringing more friends and family here :) read more

Curry Hyuga - Pork Katsu Curry - Japanese Curry Near Me - Burlingame, California

Karage curry: Compared to other Japanese curries I have had, this may be an okay choice. Not to say it is not good, but I expected a Japanese curry with more umami tastes. However, this curry tasted more savory than typical curries. The flavor of the curry was strong however it was quite salty and dark. The chicken was great!!! I could eat it on its own. The salad and dressing complimented the dish well. It help to cut the salty flavor of the curry, it is quite refreshing. Service was phenomenal! There is a call button which helps with getting the waiters attention when things are busy. Food came relatively quick and tables are clean. I enjoyed that they offered 5 levels of spice powder on the table for customization. If you are looking for a quick bite and satisfy your curry craving, this is a good choice! read more

Curry Hyuga - Karage curry - Japanese Curry Near Me - Burlingame, California

Yummy Katsu Curry! My friend who goes to Japan kinda often said this place reminds him of the katsu from Japan! I also really enjoy the food from here. For the chicken karagage it just didn't hit the spot for me sadly (it would've enhanced the dish if they had lemon for us to add to that dish and I was just kind of disappointed with the chicken overall). I really liked the katsu curry from here though and would come again if I were in the area. As for parking-- it's street parking so you probably have to go around the block a few times. It's a cozy store, and they had a button for us to hit to call the servers which was convenient. read more
