Small Order of Chicken Katsu Curry
Sulema P.

Hands down, the best chicken katsu curry ever! The chicken was moist, lightly breaded, and just perfect. The curry sauce was delicious too. I ordered a spice level of 3, which was a little too spicy for me, so next time I'll go with a 2. I can't wait to come back

Curry Fries with everything on the side.

I believe this is the latest Zen Curry, and it's my favorite location. The service is always quick and friendly. Less crowded and busy than the Spring Mountain location. Area is clean and spacious. Food always comes out quick.. we never have to wait for a table-

Tonkatsu plate, with salad and tofu.
Joe U.

Everything looks the part, almost smells the part, but the Tonkatsu and Chicken Katsu was overcooked, again. The service is great, and the restaurant overall is clean. I wouldn't recommend this location because it's not on par to the one in Chinatown.

Dear Zen Management My family and I have been loyal Zen customers since 2009. We usually went to the Spring Mountain location and started visiting Tropicana more often when it opened because it's closer to our home. Today, we had a party of four and ordered four plates and appetizers. As we normally do with curry, we asked for a small portion of raku (onion pickle) In the past, this was always complimentary. On our check today, we were charged $1.50 for it without being told in advance. My concern is not the amount, but the lack of communication from lady server . If there is a new policy, it should be clearly explained to the customer. Because of this experience, I've decided not to return to the Tropicana location, which is very disappointing after so many years of loyalty.

FLA-VOR-FUL. Limited parking in shared lot. Quaint inside. Try the chicken karage, honey bread and any of their curries. Service was good, a must try!

Chicken Katsu Curry

Super friendly service from their team! I got the Chicken Katsu Curry level 3 which was just enough spice. Unfortunately the chicken was way overcooked and tough. The Shoyu Ramen was good. The interior is cutely decorated a d inviting.

chicken curry - regular, miso soup, gyoza tonight

Zen Curry West has been one of my favorite spots for years. The curry is consistently delicious and always hits the spot. We also had the miso soup and gyoza this evening, and both were excellent. What keeps me coming back is the warm service and being met with friendly smiles each time. Carrie and Bex were so accommodating and lovely tonight, They're kind, attentive, and genuine, and I'm glad I came back tonight! Good luck Bex, and congrats on your second day working here! Thank you for another wonderful meal and experience! Kindly, Gen

I come here all the time. The food is great and the staff are always so kind. Usually it's never too busy and the food doesn't take long. I typically get a small chicken katsu curry with white rice.

beef curry
Rewina T.

Open spacing and very cute decor in the store. The booth seat were comfortable and service was really quick. Food was even quicker as well, they offer mostly curry but also have some sides like sushi rolls and ramen. And now they offer a Japanese style breakfast from 9-1pm I believe, I went too late in the day to try it but it did look good. I ordered my usual curry of beef with white rice and lvl 8 spice. It holds a kick but not enough to make me cry! a 10/10 as usual!

Peace L.

We had a satisfactory experience dining here being our first time. While our orders were good but the service could be improved.

Amazing as always! Staff is always friendly and the food comes out fast and hot! Definitely my go too Japanese curry place!

Never like Japanese curry. But this time I have changed my opinion. I had the curry ramen and it was delicious. The curry was added quite a bit of sweetness and it worked really well with the spiciness. Japanese curry usually doesn't have much kick nor aroma but this added a lot of flavor, also Japanese spicy ramen usually is simply spicy (even spicy curry ramen), it would have been so spicy that I would sweat but it was still just spicy. The chicken Katsu was over fried, would have been better with pork katsu.

Create Your Own Curry: large, with brown rice, spice level 5, and tofu katsu, for $17.70 from the dine-in menu
Ken M.

Create Your Own Curry: large, with brown rice, spice level 5, and tofu katsu, was $17.70 from the dine-in menu. It was prepared with no vegetables, but could be added for an additional $3.50 ($21.20 total). The tofu katsu was good, but I could have eaten more, which is available for an additional $4.00 ($25.20). So, when you really get down to it, their pricing is expensive. Vegetables should be automatic, not an extra fee. This penalizes, rather than encourages, vegetable consumption from their menu. The curry is served with a surprising amount of sauce, which I think would be an extra amount for an additional price. I would rather have a regular amount of sauce with mushrooms or vegetables added to it with no extra price. I asked if the Spicy Miso Ramen was made with vegan broth, but our server didn't know the answer, and a manager wasn't available to get that information from. For dessert, we had sorbet, for $4 each. It was served in the plastic container, which we had to open ourselves. I could just go to the store, purchase that myself, and eat it at home. It doesn't make sense for a restaurant to serve a packaged food item directly from the store shelf. The food itself is very good. They are generous with the curry sauce. The dine-in service was great. The restaurant is casual, but lacks elegant decor to help justify the high pricing.

"You haven't tried Ton Ton yet?!?" And that's how we came to discover this cute little Japanese…read morerestaurant! My brother and sister-in-law took us here, and luckily, we arrived early enough to avoid the line and snag the last available table. Moments later, a long line was forming outside! Truth be told, I'm not usually a fan of katsu, although my entire family loves it. We ordered both the regular and thick-cut pork katsu sets to compare, along with oysters, a seafood mix, jumbo scallops, mushrooms, and Kumidashi cold tofu. My favorite was the scallops. Everything except the tofu was fried, and WOW! The katsu here is unlike what I've had elsewhere. Perfectly crispy, clean-tasting, not greasy, moist on the inside, and seasoned just right. I also enjoyed the ritual of grinding sesame seeds to mix into my katsu sauce. The iced green tea was wonderfully refreshing, and refills were included--a nice bonus! Service was friendly and attentive throughout our meal. Coming from someone who doesn't typically gravitate toward katsu, I thoroughly enjoyed every bite. Now I understand what all the hype is about!

Pro-tip: Expect there to be a wait! Order the thick cut pork loin - it's totally worth it…read more Highlights: If you're looking to be transported back to Japan or just for an authentic Katsu meal, you will not be disappointed. Everything from the menus, the decor, the dishware will really make you feel like you're in Japan. The food here is so delicious!! I would highly recommend the thick cut pork loin Katsu. The service is also very quick and polite. Lowlights: The restaurant is very small and they pack a lot of tables inside so they don't allow strollers. I imagine it would be hard to dine with a large group.

With calming music playing in the background, it honestly felt like we were in a spa about to get a massage--so much so that it felt like we couldn't make any noise. lol. We ordered the bento box with chicken katsu and the chicken katsu omurice. The miso soup stood out in a good way--it tasted rich and comforting, not powdery like some miso soups can be. The chicken katsu was thick, juicy, and well-cooked, which we enjoyed. That said, the curry itself was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it didn't really wow us. The omurice also wasn't very exciting in terms of flavor. Overall, Kare is a clean, peaceful spot with a welcoming atmosphere and friendly service. It's a good option for curry if you're already in the plaza, though it wouldn't be my first choice if I were specifically craving curry.

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.

Now I'm mad at myself for not coming sooner cuz apparently everyone knew except me. LOL! I ordered the organic chicken katsu curry at spice level 3 and it did not disappoint. The chicken was crispy on the outside and tender inside and the curry was rich, flavorful and had a nice lil kick without being too spicy. The portion was pretty generous too. Customer service was great and the whole food hall was nice and clean. This is only my second time eating at Cheongdam Food Hall so I still have a bunch of the other food spots to explore. Curry Ya definitely made a great impression though and I'll be back! My only complaint is that I wish there were more seats available. The tables are set up to be shared which I don't mind at all but it was a lil annoying seeing people put their belongings on empty chairs they weren't even using so nobody else could sit next to them. Especially when other people are looking for somewhere to sit-- like come on, y'all we gotta share! Other than the seating situation, I really enjoyed my food and totally understand why everyone kept raving about Curry Ya. I should've listened sooner!

Japanese curry cravings? Say less…read more We came in past 11:40 AM on a Monday, and the moment we walked in, the ambiance was already giving "Welcome to Japan" vibes. The restaurant offers a variety of Katsu meals and Japanese curry, so naturally... we had to order TWO meals because apparently one person cannot be trusted around good food. We got the Hire Curry and Hire Katsu, and both were delicious! The breading on the hire was chef's kiss -- crispy, light, and perfectly done. But let me talk about that curry sauce. It was rich, flavorful, and seriously giving authentic Japanese curry vibes. I would honestly come back just for the curry sauce! The staff were super friendly, the restaurant was really clean, and there's plenty of parking, which is always a bonus because nobody wants their first adventure to be a parking-lot survival challenge. The lady was so quick to seat us, probably because we were among the first customers of the day. Monday morning VIP treatment! Overall, we absolutely enjoyed our meal and would 100% come back the next time we're in Vegas. Thank you for opening your doors and sharing your cooking with us! Definitely worth a visit if you're craving some good Japanese Katsu and curry!

In search of cold soba noodles, Tora Katsu & Curry came up in my search. We arrived on a Friday…read moreevening around 5:30 pm and the restaurant had only one party already dining. I was a bit disappointed with how empty the restaurant was honestly. Our initial waitress was friendly and personable. She initially seated up and took our orders. But there must have been a shift change because a different waitress took over. We thought the first one had left, but eventually did see she was still present. * Pork Rosu Katsu & Soba Combo $25.99 - We got two orders of this and it was just okay. When you order the combo, you don't get the rice or soup. The Little Gal ate the soba and I ate the katsu. It was okay, but just okay. They do give you sesame seeds to grind yourself like other katsu places in town. The Little Guy ate his dish and was fine with it. I did notice that my dish was missing something compared to my son's. I pointed out the missing potato croquette and they had to get me a new one. * Wagyu Katsu (new item) - The Husband had initially planned on ordering the Menchi Katsu but they were offering this new item instead to replace it. He thought it was only okay. They don't do refills on the salad or anything unfortunately. It's really hard to get the servers' attention as they are behind the counter and it appears to be blocked. (Unless they can see us, but we can't see them. Either way, we can't see if anyone is available.). No one noticed that I kept turning around and waiting for assistance when we needed more sauce, the check, etc. This was super frustrating considering there was were only two parties dining the whole time we there. Overall, the whole experience was underwhelming. The food and service were only okay. We ended up going to another Japanese restaurant after for more bites and dessert, and just a better experience overall to close out our evening.

Hey, y'all…read more Y'all... I guess I've been living under a rock because I'm just now finding out about Cheongdam Food Hall! Where have I been?! Anywhoddles I ordered from Eki Ramen, and when I tell y'all this ramen was RAMENING! Aka delicious. Aka... fire I ordered the Black Garlic Ramen, and as you can see from the menu, it was only $12.95. I added an extra egg, extra pork belly, and extra black garlic oil because... why not? Anywhoddles with the extra "trimmings" it came to $18 dollars. Let's get back to the review Now lean in so I can tell y'all about this broth. It tasted authentic to me. It was rich, velvety, silky smooth, creamy without being heavy, and bursting with savory goodness. Every sip had me closing my eyes The noodles had the perfect bite--not too soft and not too firm. The pork belly was tender, flavorful, and had just the right amount of char around the edges. And those eggs? Whew! Perfectly jammy with that beautiful golden yolk. So... if you're a ramen lover--or if you've been thinking about trying ramen for the first time--I highly recommend giving Eki Ramen a try. And while you're there, take your time and explore Cheongdam Food Hall because there are plenty of other restaurants waiting to be discovered. Until next time... y'all already know what time it is! I'll be doing a boomerang back to this spot because there are way too many restaurants in this food hall for me to stop at just one!
