Restaurant had about 10 ish tables, each seating ~ 4 people. Entrees took around 15 minutes to come out (again, not that big of a deal because of the time to make the house made soba and time to fry the tempura) - Got the Ten Zaru -- soba on the texture was nice and bouncy. Tempura batter was light, crispy, not too thick. Love that fact that I can get fresh hand made soba outside of Japan

I would love to try it with cold udon noodles next time, and would come back again. The tables fill up quickly and like the other reviews mentioned, there's usually a wait. We didn't wait too long for our table, but for all of food to arrive was upwards of an hour, which the owner has mentioned taking longer to make food during rush hour in their business bio because they make everything to order.

Cheese tonkatsu - fried but airy, not too greasy, cheese compliments the pork loin without being to overpowering, pork loin was juicy, sesame sauce was delicious, cabbage salad had ample yet flavorful dressing, miso soup and rice were great pairings aging with the pickled veggies. I would get this again and again

But again nothing wow. Not sure why there's such hype. Always a long line. Service is good, but there's a big rush to turn over the table because of the long wait and lines so I felt super rushed to eat and gtfo. I went here 4 years ago. Forgot why I never returned and came back yesterday with same experience. Now I remember why I didn't return :(

Hey Beautiful People!…read more So you know how no 2 shops are alike, even if they are owned by the same person? Well, I learned my lesson! This Cream Pan is nothing like their FV location, which is sad because Tustin is actually the original. Inside is dingy and messy, which should have been a sign for me to walk out, but I really wanted a strawberry croissant. Big mistake! It was soggy--as if it was made yesterday. The strawberry was already going bad. Will never set foot in this location ever again and learned my lesson to stick to the Fountain Valley one. Thanks for reading!

Nothing like a hot curry on a hot day!…read more Japanese curry is my favorite type of curry, and Coco does it great! Served piping hot, I had it with crispy fried chicken and a heaping portion of rice. Service was quick, from your table, you can both order and pay. Inside was crowded as with all spots at Diamond Jamboree. Parking is also horrible as always, park in the structure at the back!

First time at Coco Ichibanya and the food definitely did not disappoint. The portions are huge and…read morethe price is great. I ordered 2X Garlic Naan, Curry Udon & Chicken Cutlet Omelet. For three, this was more than enough and we had leftover. The curry itself tasted great. The omelet was alright; I would just get the regular Chicken Cutlet next time. The curry udon was simple yet very hearty & filling. The food came out within 10 minutes so pretty quick despite how busy it was. We didn't get checked up on at all but understandable since it was busy and late in the evening. The reason why I'm giving it a 1* is the service. One of the workers (pink or red/black hair) asked us if Garlic Cheese Naan was ours and we said yes since she was speaking very fast. As soon as we realized it wasn't order, we corrected ourselves and exchanged with the server for our Garlic Naan. Not sure she was upset that we accepted the wrong order on accident, but she gave us an attitude the rest of the night. She placed our plate on the edge of the table and walked away. About 10 minutes into our meal, she places the bill at the edge of the table, which we thought was odd. Not sure why is she running away and rushing us After we paid, she took it away without saying anything, like asking for a to-go, etc. The other workers were very nice -- placing our food in front of us, asking if we needed to-go, etc. Her interaction just ruined the dining experience for us and I noticed other reviews had similar issues with other servers as well.

Delcious curry at Curry Do! Came during lunch on a weekend and the restaurant was pretty empty…read more Don't know why because their curry is fantastic! Pricing is on the higher side for a regular size curry ($17.50). You can get a smaller portion for $14.50. I have a healthy appetite and got the regular with tonkatsu. The pork was a leaner than I prefer, so I would probably get the chicken the next time. The sauce was great and I cleaned my plate. My husband got the curry udon with shrimp and devoured his as well. During the week Tue-Fri 11:30am-3pm, they have lunch combos where you can get a small bowl of curry and an appetizer for $13.50. What a deal! I'm somewhere between four and five stars but will give five since service was great! Parking in the lot.

Located next to Anjin and Afuri, it's easy to find parking…read more When we arrived it was kinda full, but there was only one server. We waited quite some time until we got a qr code to scan. Inside is clean, and minimally furnished. The tap water tastes very bad, tried a sip and didn't want to touch it again. Food is mediocre, curry is fine, no acidic aftertaste which is a plus, katsus are very bland. One of the takoyaki is even cold inside. All in all if you are craving for katsu curry and is close by, it's an ok lunch place.

I thought it was weird you didn't get to pick a spice level, but they give you togarashi on the side. Beef belly: 7/10. Good flavor but really oily Pork belly: 7/10. Also decent but also really oily That said, I appreciate that everything was separated out, including the add ons. Would I come here again? Not if I were looking for the best. But is it convenient and decent portions and decent price? Yeah. For some reason, the system wouldn't let us email receipts because there was no @ button. Not a big deal, but something to note.

I got the standard spice and it had a nice kick but nothing too crazy. It was on a self burning pot so it kept it nice and hot throughout the meal. There was a good amount of beef and the soup flavor was unique and worth it! They also include a cheesy rice ball which you add into your soup at the end to make a porridge. Would definitely recommend ordering this one!
