As a former resident of Japan, this curry really hit the spot. I was surprised how crowded it was when we arrived around 6:30 on a Sunday night, but it was worth the wait. Ordered at kiosks and waited for our names to be called. Ordered to-go. It took a really long time for our food to be ready and there were lots of other people waiting outside as well. Lots of toppings and sides to choose from. Spicy really does mean spicy at this place, so choose wisely. So happy to have found a CoCo’s curry in San Diego. So good!

First time at this place and it was awesome!! The wait staff is really helpful explaining the spices, but I do wish that they approached the table a little more. Definitely need to keep coming back. There’s definitely enough of a serving to fill you up or even take some home! Hopefully I can experience the world-famous ones from Japan someday!

We’ve been loyal Coco Ichibanya customers for a long time and usually dine in about once a week, which is why this is especially disappointing.

Recently, we’ve noticed a consistent drop in both quality and portion size when ordering takeout, compared to dining in. This time, the curry portion was noticeably much smaller than what is normally served in-restaurant (photos attached for reference). The meat in my order also tasted overly batter-heavy, undercooked, and stale, which made it really unpleasant to eat. Unfortunately, this isn’t the first time we’ve experienced this with takeout.

On top of that, the customer service has been frustrating. There is a younger female staff member who is often at the counter, and every time she handles our order, the experience is negative. For example, we once ordered pickup and waited over 30 minutes past the quoted time, and despite clearly seeing us waiting, she never acknowledged us or gave an update. Her attitude has consistently come across as dismissive and rude.

We don’t like leaving negative reviews, especially for a place we genuinely enjoy and support regularly. However, it’s upsetting to feel like takeout customers are treated differently — both in food quality and service. We’re hoping management sees this and addresses the inconsistency, because we want to continue supporting this location.

As a long-time fan of Japanese curry, I was thrilled to finally visit a Curry House CoCo Ichibanya – my first time at this particular chain, though I’m no stranger to the style, having frequented a beloved (and now sadly closed) Curry House in Westwood pre-pandemic. I was so happy to find the menus quite similar, with all my old favorites present and accounted for!
We started with the Garlic Cheese Naan, which was absolutely delicious fresh and hot, though it did lose a bit of its magic as it cooled – so definitely enjoy it quickly! It was also my boyfriend’s very first foray into Japanese curry, and I’m happy to report he absolutely loved it. He opted for the spicy teriyaki fried chicken, while I indulged in my classic chicken cutlet. Both dishes were just as rich and flavorful as I remembered, hitting all the right notes of comforting deliciousness.
My only minor disappointment was that they were out of iced coffee, which would have been a perfect complement. Nevertheless, the overall experience was fantastic, and I’m already planning my next visit to have my old favorite, the keema curry! I’ll definitely be back when I’m in San Diego.

Been here so many times, and I like coming here. I like the choices of the curry, the mix and match, and the spice level. Decent large size serving for quite the price of the food.
Honestly, I think the inside is a little too crowded the way the tables are set up but I don’t mind. I come here for the Japanese curry. Friendly staff and good service. They get super busy at times and line starts forming outside. Parking gets very difficult since it’s also located in a busy commercial area. But will definitely recommend.

A friend recommended this place to me, and I’m so glad they did! I really appreciate the variety on the menu, offering plenty of different options to mix and match. The curry was delicious with the option to customize the spiciness to your taste. The server was attentive, taking note of my special requests and fulfilling them perfectly. I’ll definitely be coming back.

Parking is ample during off-peak hours but can be challenging during meal times.

Visiting Coco’s always feels like I just teleported back to Japan! The staff is always so friendly and the service is fast! We had the chicken and pork cutlet dishes and a side of French fries. Pro tip, the curry makes the perfect dipping sauce for the fries!

The service is really good, everyone is so nice & the curry hits for anyone who lived in Japan before. I tear up the triple seafood curry every time.

My boyfriend and I, along with our three friends, have been regulars for a while. We used to come in the mornings, but recently switched to dinner after noticing the chicken is often chewier early in the day—our theory is the oil isn’t fully heated right after opening. In the evenings, everything’s cooked perfectly, and the vibe is just as inviting.

Here’s a quick rundown of our latest dinner picks:

* Chicken Curry with Spinach and Mushrooms – 4.8/5
The chicken was mostly tender, though one slice was a bit chewy. The spinach was fresh and flavorful, and the mushrooms were perfectly soft.

* Chicken Curry with Vegetable Croquettes (2) – 4/5
Absolute standout! The croquettes were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside—delicious and satisfying.

* Garlic Naan – 4/5
We love the flavor, but it arrived a bit too early and got cold before the rest of our food came. If it had been timed better, this easily would’ve been a 5.

* Chicken Curry with Thin-Sliced Beef – 4.5/5
Surprisingly juicy! The thin beef slices held their own and added a rich, savory layer to the curry.

What can I say about this place? When my cousin recommended it, I was skeptical about the taste since most Japanese cuisine I’ve tried tends to be on the sweeter side. However, after dining here and trying some of their top menu items, I was blown away by how good everything tasted. This spot also serves some incredible Indian dishes! If you’re craving savory food, this is the best place to try. Reservations are recommended because it gets busy quickly.
