    Dec 2025 menu

    Kare is a hidden gem in China Town Las Vegas! Everything restaurant in this plaza is always packed. So finding parking will be tough but it's still worth coming to check out! The service is so amazing. The server was friendly and greeted us with a smile. He was patient while we were deciding what to order and also stopped by to help us with anything we need. The restaurant isn't too big but can still hold a large party of 9 or 10 at most. Every entree we ordered was very good. Good portion size to share so you can try several dishes and the prices are very reasonable. The entrees all came out hot and the wait time was very reasonable. The curry sauce can also be mild so my son was able to enjoy it! I highly recommend the Katsu curry bento box, chicken katsu, and fish katsu. Made fresh and all the protein were tender.

    Chicken katsu
    Doriee L.

    Stopped by this past Sunday for a late lunch, at around 145PM or so. There were no other tables besides ours so it wasn't busy at all. Came here mainly to try their curry omurice so I decided to go for their chicken katsu curry omurice while my husband went with their tonkatsu curry omurice. The chicken katsu was huge! It was thick, juicy, and tender. I really enjoyed this. The tonkatsu, however, was tough. It was not as good as the chicken in my opinion. Unfortunately, there was no option to choose how spicy you want your curry like many other curry places but they do have pepper powder at each table for you to use. My friend and I drowned our curry in pepper powder since we like it spicy. The curry was OK -- it ran on the sweeter side and doesn't carry as much depth as some places. There was a ton of rice with each plate. The omurice is just egg on top of white rice -- it's not really omurice. The rice had a good texture though, it was fluffy and plump. But since there was so much rice, there wasn't enough curry. By the time I was halfway through my meal, I barely had any curry left for the rest of my giant mountain of rice. Overall, it was decent. I don't think KARE would be our first choice if we want Japanese curry though.

    Stopped by this place earlier this year. I said I would come back and I have! The service was good. I was immediately seated and given time to look at the menu. I ordered a chicken katsu curry bento box. This box comes with gyoza, salted edamame, miso, omurice, curry and then you get to pick your protein. The miso was nice and light and very quickly came after I placed my order. The gyoza was crispy on the edges and juicy. The katsu was crispy, tender and the cutlet was thick. The omurice was a little firmer than I'm used to but still silky. The curry has great flavor and there was a good amount. Honestly, so good and I had leftovers to take home. I was definitely satisfied!

    Came in expecting a decent meal, left wondering why this place isn't packed like a BTS concert. First off, the host? 10/10 -- super friendly, didn't judge me for being overly excited about curry. Respect. Now the food: that katsu was crispier than my Wi-Fi at 3am. The curry sauce? Smooth, rich, and lowkey made me emotional. The omelette? So fluffy it could be a pillow -- but like, one you wanna eat. Only weird part? The place was empty. I was mentally prepared to elbow my way through a crowd, but nope -- just me, my meal, and some peaceful curry enlightenment. Go here before everyone else finds out.

    Katsu curry spot in shanghai plaza that offers assorted katsu options such as pork and tempura with egg and curry! The servers are attentive and kind, and their shop is clen. For the katsu, sometimes the texture is a bit chewy. And the unagi is good but sometimes it's a bit mush. Overall, the flavors are nice.

    This is a cute, quaint, little eatery located in Shanghai Plaza. Parking as a whole in this complex is gonna be rough whenever you go on a Friday night or the weekend... And we went on a Saturday night! Haha But onto the food rating. It's 5 Stars. Stop reading. You're done. Get here. No but seriously, if you're into curry flavors and fried proteins served over a bed of rice, this is the spot. Yes, we went when there was a grand opening special pricing for the curry plates, but I'd absolutely return to pay full retail ($5 more).

    Chicken Katsu Omurice

    One of the better curry spots in town! The inside was cutely decorated and very calm music was playing - definitely very comfy vibes. The staff were super attentive and kept checking in from time to time. The curry was very flavorful and the katsu was super crispy! I think the curry to rice ratio could be a little better though. Our whole table had so much rice left over on their plates with no more curry. The unagi don was in a nice little bento and was worth getting. It was so juicy and the sauce over the rice just hits really good.

    Pork Katsu and Chicken Katsu curry

    There are few meals more comforting than Japanese Curry. And man, did this place have a good ass curry. Like the restaurant itself; the menu is small. However, that doesn't mean that this place doesn't have anything to offer. For picky kids, there are still items like fries and chicken karaage on the menu. For curry lovers, though, you're in for a treat. You can select a protein, and the meal comes with a full plate of curry and a lovely egg atop a bed of rice. My partner was so into this curry that he'd take a bite, say "god damn," and then go in for his next bite. He LOVED this curry. I liked the variation of flavors and textures in each part of the dish, coalescing into a satisfying meal. The restaurant was very small, and despite it being moderately full at dinner time, it was never too loud. The servers were attentive and ensured our waters were kept nice and full. The price was decent too, practically ensuring a repeat visit. I'm certain i'll be returning.

    It was my first time trying sweet curry rather than spicy and it's now one of my favorite foods. The food is simple, but delicious. Like others said it's never busy in there and I like how quiet and fast it is.

    Chicken Katsu Omelette Curry
    Treshia M.

    Had my eye on this for a while, been seeing their sign of their grand opening deal and decided to try it. It's a very quiet ambiance, I found myself whispering to talk to my table most of the time. It wasn't too busy when my group and I went to try this place, even when it was weekend dinner time. So we were seated pretty quickly. The service I think could be better, my group and I were waiting quite a while for our waiter to return back to our table so that we could order. There was another table that came in later than us and the waiter attended to that table for their order before us. For the food, it wasn't the best if I'm being honest. And I wasn't too happy with how the plate was presented. From the picture, this is how they served the plate to me, it's messy. Their katsu seems like it was pre-made and frozen, it didn't seem fresh. I'm glad I chose not to get the shrimp tempura because it seems like they use the pre-made frozen shrimp tempura and it doesn't look anything like the pictures that are on the menu. I don't have a problem with watery curry, but I didn't expect them to have two spice levels (which is mild and hot spicy, which they only had mild on this day). I got the mild curry and it was just very bland. The egg omelette was ok, nothing special about it. Overall, I think this place was ok. I don't think this would be the top of my reccommendations for Japanese curry places in Vegas but atleast I tried it.

    We came at 1:30PM on Friday, not busy at all. The parking lot is always busy though lol. We both got the C1, came with curry, rice, omurice. The rice was fluffy. The curry was slightly thinner than what you would expect at Curryzen. The egg was nicely cooked. For the both of us, price came out to $32, including taxes and convenience fee ($1.22). Price doesn't include tip. Overall I enjoyed the food 5/5. Service 4.5/5 (didn't ask for mild or spicy until I got my order).

    Fish Katsu Bento
    Michael V.

    What a nice little spot... a bit too quiet if that makes any sense... but the service was super friendly and the food is good! The fish Katsu Bento was wonderful! Curry hit the spot and the Katsu wasn't too greasy. Tasty.

    Beef Stew Curry Omurice
    Lance P.

    Japanese curry is one of those dishes I could eat everyday and not get tired of it. This place does it right! Simple menu, but they nailed what I look for in curry and what dishes surround them. I came here with friends and almost all of us ordered the chicken katsu curry omurice, with the exception of myself (I ordered the beef stew curry omurice). For about $15 a plate, it's great value and quality. Our table also ordered the corn milk soup and curry fries, both of which were quite nice as well. Service- on point, seated right away (no wait at the time), and attentive throughout. The space is quite small, so if you're planning to dine in I recommend checking in to see seating availability. Overall- 9/10 Will definitely come back. Just note curry is mostly served mild. Spicy option wasn't available when we visited.

Somehow we stumbled into Izakaya Go, and let me tell you... this place is legit. First off, they have happy hour after 10 PM, which already makes it a win for late-night Vegas wanderers like us. Everything we ordered hit the spot. The tonkotsu ramen was comforting, rich, and flavorful. Exactly what you want after a long night out. The deep-fried shrimp and tuna were fried perfectly with a nice crisp texture. If it wasn't so late, I probably would've kept ordering more. But the real star? The Otoro (bluefin tuna belly) sashimi. Absolute must order. It literally melts in your mouth and had zero fishy smell, just pure buttery goodness. My wife isn't usually a sushi person, but she ended up loving it and ate way more than I expected. That alone should tell you something. If you're in Vegas and looking for a late-night Japanese spot that actually delivers, put Izakaya Go in your Yelp bookmarks. Your future late-night self will thank you.

The ambiance is definitely one of the strongest parts of the experience -- stylish, moody, and it honestly feels like the perfect late-night spot to grab cocktails and listen to live music. I could absolutely see this being a great vibe later in the evening. We ordered the Thai jerky, takoyaki, spring rolls, pad see ew, chicken fried rice, and the uni pasta. The uni pasta was easily the star of the night -- rich, flavorful, and honestly the one dish I'd come back for. Everything else ranged from okay to forgettable. Unfortunately, the pad see ew was genuinely bad. The noodles and vegetables were undercooked to the point where we had to send it back. What really left a bad taste in our mouths though was the ending. When the bill came, we initially paid without checking too closely. Someone then reminded us about the pad see ew, so we went back in to ask for an itemized receipt. Before we even explained much, the waitress immediately said, "Oh my god, I forgot to take off the pad see ew." That response made it pretty obvious she already knew it was still on the bill and seemed to expect that we just wouldn't notice. The beautiful atmosphere and the uni pasta weren't enough to outweigh the mediocre food and disappointing service experience. Really wanted to love this place because the vibe is there, but overall it left us disappointed.
