Date and time of your visit: 3, 2019 Lunch

Closed on weekends and holidays, no reservations. The restaurant is a maximal difficulty restaurant to visit, where you cannot get curry without making a reservation, which starts at 10:00 a.m. for lunch and at 4:00 p.m. for dinner. I bought a retort curry under the supervision of Rokko and got hooked on it, so even though I took a paid vacation, I took the same train to Okubo that I use for commuting. On this day, I arrived at around 9:15 a.m. and got in the back of the line of about 20 people. 9:45 a.m. I finished my bookkeeping and went to the restaurant at the designated time of 12:10 p.m. Roka plate (950 yen) This popular menu item offers two kinds of dishes: roka rice and curry, and as some of you may have noticed, roka rice and coffee is called "roko" in Japanese. I had decided to order this on my first visit a few days in advance. I was told that I could choose my favorite curry, so I chose the lamb curry. Suddenly I realized that this is the first time in my life that I've had roast rice. I don't know how to describe it, but it was so delicious that I could have eaten it by itself. The lamb curry has a large piece of meat in it, but it is delicious without the distinctive smell of lamb. After I had eaten some of it, I mixed the curry with the owner's recommendation of lamb rice. This miraculous fusion of Taiwanese and Indian cuisine is just delicious. I was so excited that I said to myself, "Now, I'm going to eat a full meal! I was just about to eat my fill, when unfortunately, I had to finish. If I have a chance to visit next time, I definitely want to have a big bowl of rice, but I have to work hard and rest first.

SPICY CURRY Roo Coffee in Okubo, Japan An amazing score of 3.89 on the food log in one year: ‼️ Arrived an hour before opening and was the first one to get in 💞A little later, there was a long line... even though it was a weekday 😰. Ordered the "Roka Plate" that I had longed for! Your choice of curry (roka chicken curry) and roka rice. Topped with an egg 🐥1,050 yen. The first bite of the curry was not that spicy, but it gradually warmed me up and I was sweating by the end 😹 I wonder how many spices they use in this curry...it is really delicious 🍛 and addictive. Eat half of it and then mix it with the roasted rice. The gentle sweetness of the roasted rice matches the curry in a perfect balance👍💞. A must-try curry for spiced curry lovers. A young woman runs the restaurant by herself and accepts orders for bento boxes for 500 yen. She is busy, but she serves her customers quickly and with a smile, which makes a good impression 😢💗. No wonder why this is so popular. They also have other limited edition curries and you can order just the roux so I want to try many different curries 😻I want to eat curry 🍛 even if I have to wait in line! Will definitely revisit again 😁✨✨✨

spicy curry☆! Spicy curry from Roka, which is rumored to be the best curry restaurant in Japan! Since it was my first time, I decided to go for the Roka plate, which they recommend the most. I had the standard chicken curry, rou ro rice, and a variety of other dishes. I mixed them all up on the way out, just like you said. By the time I left, my body rather than my mouth was super spicy 🔥. It was a big change to get to this one. On this day, when I asked him to go to the bookkeeping in the morning, he was finished. I went back in the evening and finally got it. I just went to eat. Thanks a lot 😭✨ They've been getting a lot of media exposure lately. The cute lady owner runs the place by herself. The restaurant is run by a single owner, and there are 8 people in a 30 minute changeover. The rest of us were regulars of the professional staff. A spicy and precious experience in Okubo✨!

I went to book before 10am and finally got in at 1:30pm! It's a very popular restaurant and I rarely get to come here, so I'm glad... By the way, it has roe on top. It was so good that I also bought the retort! Thank you for the food.

It is now a famous restaurant that is hard to get into! When I went there, I was able to get in right away probably because it had just opened, but recently it seems to have become a curry shop with a long line of customers. I think I ordered the rokko plate, but I could enjoy various tastes and it was a good value for money. The female manager was doing her best to make the curry, but now she seems to have become a celebrity, and I feel that both the restaurant and the manager have become distant from each other. Congratulations on the prosperity and success of your restaurant! And thank you for the food!
