The restaurant specializes in Japanese style curry and is a quick and easy choice in the area! Love coming in to get a delicious plate of curry. The menu offers different sizes of entrees so anyone can find their perfect amount of food. Plus the different protein options help round out the whole meal. It tastes great too and is a step up from the boxed curry bricks that most people use at home. The pickles help with cutting through the curry flavour too. Highly recommend, this is a favourite spot in the area! read more

Oretachi Curry - Pork cutlet curry with extra shrimp cutlet - Ramen Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

Wanted to try this place that I have passed by a few times. Small place that has a decent amount of seating and even has a bar area for singles. I couldn't decide between two dishes so I ordered both. Tried the pork cutlet with rice and it was juicy, flavourful and crispy. I ordered the beef tendon curry and upgraded to a large portion. Not the best idea because I expected more tendon, but got a lot more sauce and rice instead. Ah well.....it became take-out. Saying this, the sauce was pretty good. The greatest thing about this place is that the staff is super friendly! Parking is limited to side street since it's Main. read more

Been wanting to go for years and this one in the hood is nicely located with free parking in front. I went with the classic katsu curry to get started. Ordered small and should have upsized it one notch. First bite was great. Nicely crunchy and meat quality is very good being lean. Not sure if it's Osaka style but I found the curry sauce thinner than "usual", and can use more taste. Still a good experience and the place was crowded at lunch. read more

This is the first restaurant I've been to in Vancouver that specializes in Japanese curry. There are a lot of protein/topping options to choose from and you can customize spice and portion size. I got the pork cutlet curry and it was quite good; it's a simple, but comforting and flavorful meal! Each table also comes with sauces and pickled radish to eat with your meal. I think the restaurant did a good job in decorating the place as it was cozy to dine in. I don't often crave Japanese curry, but it's nice to have the option in Vancouver. read more

Finally tried out Oretachi Curry, which specializes in Osaka style Japanese curry. They have a second location in Richmond. This branch is a few doors down from Nui. Most dishes are $16.50 to $22.00. You can upgrade to medium ($2.50) or large ($6.50). Portions lean towards the small side. Make sure to try their fukujinzuke (pickles). - Beef slice curry ($17.00) - beef was tender and flavourful. Curry itself was well balanced. More rice would be nice at this price point - Beef curry udon ($17.00 small) - broth had good depth. Same beef slices as the ones in the curry rice - Chicken cutlet ebi miso curry ramen ($21.00) read more

Hands down my FAVORITE food spot in Vancouver. I could not speak more highly of this restaurant. You do have to fill out a waitlist board if it's busy, but you usually get a seat quickly! The location is small, but I don't mind how cozy it feels. Service is great, people are kind, location is right next to the park... food is DELICIOUS - what more could you ask for? I highly recommend the chicken ramen curry - chicken is tender, broth is flavorful, all the ingredients tie together perfectly. If you're feeling rice, the chicken rice curry is amazing as well. For dessert my partner and I got the matcha cake - it was light, flavorful, just the right amount of dessert after a meal. You can tell all their food is made with love. Will not stop recommending this place to people if they're nearby! read more

Really good curry place. Flavour is really good, just right, not too light and not too strong. Hint: they let you upgrade the size but medium is enough. Hint2: add the pickles. I had chicken cutlet curry. Chicken is great - tender yet crispy. The curry is really great esp flavour. I added eggplant and LOVED the eggplant. Really really good. My wife got the eel ramen which was great too. Would definitely come back for this curry. read more

We tried the Oretachi curry in Steveston in the past. Now we have tried the one on Main Street. We were lucky dining in for dinner without lining up. We ordered the curry tonkatsu with rice and onsen egg. We enjoyed the food. If mwe go back to the restaurant, we will definitely try other dishes. The customer service was good. Servers were polite. They were Japanese. The ambience was same as the one in Steveston. read more

There's something so special about perfectly cooked Japanese rice that takes curry to the next level. This was exactly what happened on my plate of spinach curry from Oretachi Curry! Loved how rich and flavorful the curry was without being too heavy on the palate! read more

Tasty Japanese curry place on Main near 33rd. Parking is available but limited on Main as well as the side streets. Inside looks pretty traditional themed, with the wooden panelling and trim. Staff are friendly. Tried their curry chicken cutlet and curry pork cutlets on rice. Nice and fluffy, and their signature curry is pretty tasty. The one complaint is that the rice dishes are listed as different sizes with corresponding amounts of what looks like a bowl of rice and a bowl of sauce(?). Buddy and I assumed that the "larger" sizes also meant more protein. Good thing we checked. Nope. The extra price just went towards rice and sauce, with the same sized cutlet. Why anybody would pay that much extra for curry sauce and rice is completely beyond me. So that's what they meant by "Toppings portion are the same for all sizes". Talk about disappointment. Knock 1 star off for lack of value. Buddy and I left hungry. Might be worth trying once, but for that price I'd rather go get pho or ramen. read more

Walked passed this place with a friend and heard so much about this place, so had to give it a try. Opened in September 2024 Oretchi Curry specializes in Japanese Curry Rice dishes along with an assortment of Japanese Curry Ramen. Place is cutely decorated in your typical Japanese mom and pop eatery you would see all over Japan. Me and my friend decided to order their small (200g rice + 180ml sauce) Regular Chicken Cutlet Curry Rice $16.50 and Hot Pork Cutlet Curry Rice $16.50. You can upgrade to a medium size (300g rice + 270ml sauce) for an extra $2.50 or large size (400g rice + 360 ml sauce) for $6.50 extra. *Pro tip, the medium and large upgrade does not increase the portion of your protein toppings.* The portions were quite small, the Cutlet Chicken and Pork Cutlet were pretty average as I've had better. Sauces were quite tasty and the order of hot offered just a little kick. It is of my opinion, to stay with the small order size as the upgrade fees does not translate to a good value addition of what you are getting. At the time of this review they only accept credit cards. Plenty of free parking along side streets of the restaurant. read more

YUM!!! This new joint popped up recently and we got so excited because there's nothing like it on Main! I've never actually had Japanese curry before and wow, what a perfect comfort food!! My husband and I stopped in for lunch at 1:30pm today - no line but still busy inside (we've noticed lines since its opening day!) the service was friendly and so fast! I ordered the Chicken Cutlet Oretachi Curry and my hubby got the Prawn Curry Ramen. My curry was filled with flavour and so savoury. The chicken cutlet was so juicy and batter crispy and light! The sauce, addicting!! The small was the perfect lunch size for me but they have medium and large if you're feeling hungrier! My hubby loved his ramen. It comes with big juicy battered prawns that go great with the curry broth. The value is there too, it's so hard to find lunch for under $20 per person and for $16 I got a lot of curry! Highly recommend this place especially on a cold day!! Warms your body and soul!! read more

Oretachi Curry is originally from Osaka, and apparently the curry here uses the same recipe. The restaurant is styled like a traditional Japanese shop and the service also meets the high standards of hospitality that you expect of Japanese restaurants. The menu is very helpful with pictures of all the curry toppings and icons to indicate meat, seafood, and vegetarian options. You can add toppings to the base curry to your liking, and in most cases it doesn't matter which one you choose as your base for the pricing. I ordered curry with natto and okra. I loved the natto and okra together and how the natto made the curry sauce almost creamy when mixed together. The curry itself was very tasty. I ordered regular spice level and at first thought it wasn't hot at all, but by the time I was finishing I noticed some heat had built up. If I wanted it spicy, I would try the hot, but I was happy with regular heat for just a hint of spice to give some edge to the flavour. Don't forget to add pickles from the condiment tray! The condiment tray also had curry powder and a brown sauce (maybe tonkatsu sauce), but I didn't feel like I needed to use either. I see that lots of other reviews mention small portions, but I thought there was plenty of both natto and okra on my plate, and the hefty amount of natto made the dish pretty filling even though I got the small size. I thought the $16.5 price was appropriate. I tried the sweet potato cake for dessert. I wasn't sure what to expect for dessert since I've been to some Japanese restaurants that have good food but then pull out those frozen convenience store cakes for dessert. I think this cake was previously frozen because they told me it would be 5 minutes and when it came out it was very cold (but not frozen), but it was definitely not a convenience store cake! It was pretty good! There was a cake layer and a pudding layer, and whipped cream around the edge, all dusted with cocoa powder which reminded me of tiramisu. The cake was light and a little earthy, not too sweet. From the food to the friendly service and atmosphere, I had an enjoyable experience here and would be happy to return. read more

I ordered the aburi cheese curry and added pork for take out. It was a good size portion, but the aburi cheese made it too salty. The cheese just tasted like regular cheese, I was unable to taste the char on the cheese. I would have liked a tiny bit more sauce. This place is very well priced. read more

Nice, casual, little Japanese curry restaurant with plenty of vegetarian (indeed, vegan) options. I showed up around 6:30pm on a Friday and was seated at the bar. All dishes are $13.50 for a small size, plus $2.50 for a medium or plus $6.50 for a large. You can also order additional toppings for a few dollars more. I got the natto curry (medium; $16) and added spinach ($3), selecting the hot option for spiciness. The food came out in under 10 minutes. You get a big portion of rice and curry, though not that much in the way of natto or spinach. Very tasty, moderately spicy curry with great depth. At the table, there's pickled cabbage and curry powder you can add to your dish, which is a nice touch. Super friendly service and a comfortable, no frills environment. Good food, decent value. Recommended. read more

Oretachi Curry - Natto curry rice with spinach added (vegetarian/vegan) - medium size - Ramen Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

I had the curry, and it was excellent. The waitress was also very friendly. Since I live nearby, I plan to come here often

Stepping into Oretachi Curry felt like stepping into a culinary time machine! The aroma alone teleported me back to my old favorite spot in LA--except this place has BETTER service and zero hipster waitstaff asking if I want oat milk in my curry. The curry? An emotional experience. Rich, savory, with just enough spice to remind me I still have taste buds. The katsu was so crispy it sounded like a symphony every time I took a bite. Honestly, if I had one last meal on earth, I'd request this curry and eat it while serenading the plate. The service was stellar too! The staff treated me like I just won the lottery and came to celebrate here. Quick, friendly, and they didn't even judge me when I licked the plate (don't pretend you wouldn't). Oretachi Curry, you've won my heart and my stomach. I'll be back soon--maybe too soon for my cardiologist's liking. Five stars and a standing ovation! read more

My partner and I decided to try this place since we were craving katsu curry and heard from friends that it's really good. The location is a bit out of the way and was quite a walk. Inside, the restaurant is very cute and small like any other ramen place. I liked that the menu had pictures. For myself, I ordered the small chicken katsu curry (regular spice) and my partner got the medium pork katsu curry (also reg. spice). Our meals came quickly, and we were so excited to eat since it had tons of curry sauce. I added some tonkatsu sauce on my chicken and my partner loaded his plate up with the pickles. The curry sauce itself was so creamy and rich, and the spice was a nice warm kick, nothing too intense! I loved how the sauce coated the rice nicely and the katsu stayed crispy throughout the entire meal. The flavours were spot on and katsu was juicy and crispy. I definitely think this is now my favourite place for katsu curry, I will return whenever I get my cravings! read more

Oretachi Curry - chicken katsu curry and pork katsu curry - Ramen Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

Good food, good service, nice ambiance. It only opened recently, so it's quite busy. We showed up at 5:30 with a group of 5, and probably waited 20 minutes, so not bad. Service was friendly and prompt. We all had curry rice, and between us tried the sliced beef, pork cutlet and friend prawn. All were good. Make sure you grab the pickles in the jar on the table, and def spend the extra $1 for a side of cabbage, as there are no veggies in the curry. The 'hot' isn't very hot, so don't be scared to go there. Not licensed. Very much in my neighbourhood, so a nice addition after losing a few restaurants recently. read more

Service is great, very friendly servers. I think they're still working through some kinks in the kitchen though. There was plastic wrap in one of our curry with rice dishes. Another plate had rice that was very undercooked (kinda crunchy and raw). Might just be a bad batch but when rice is half the menu, would be better to have that locked down. Hoping this location gets better over time as the Richmond spot is solid. read more

Tasty! Comparing this to coco ichibanya in Japan, this spot is certainly a contender. The curry had nice flavor, the katsu was crisp, and overall we all enjoyed our meal. Tad pricey when you do add-ons so I'd pick your top two options. read more
