WHY IT'S A MESHI MAP PICK
Locals keep coming back. That is the real proof.
地元の人が、通い続ける。それが何よりの証明。
In business since around 1988 and still following the same recipe — a week-long simmer of more than 30 spices and four kinds of fruit — this veteran Osaka curry shop defines the city's signature fruity heat.
Back-to-back wins at the Curry WEST Best 100 for 2023 and 2024 back up what regulars have long known: with a small bowl at 800 yen and a large at 1,300 yen, all 11 counter seats keep turning over without pause through lunch.

Fake reviews removed

5 minutes from Ebisucho Station. Selected for Tabelog Curry WEST Top 100 in 2023 and 2024. An Osaka curry institution since around 1988, maintaining the same recipe for 30+ years. Slow-cooked for a week with 30 spices and 4 types of fruit, creating a distinctively sweet-spicy fruity curry. Counter-only (11 seats), primarily lunch. Small size 800 yen, medium 900 yen.

Regulars praise the unchanged recipe spanning 30+ years. The fruity sweetness followed by a spicy punch is unique. Daily lunch queues at this tiny counter-only spot. Medium size is plenty filling.
