Coco Ichibanya

To start off. The service was just simply amazing. It was so quick and fast that after we checked in on Yelp, we were brought to our table in seconds. menu was on qr code, so everything went smoothly. They have the bell service which is one of my favorites because you'll be able to get a server to your table in seconds and don't have to waste time waving down a server. The food was also amazing! Came out in about 5-10 minutes which was perfect time foe us to settle down and just talk for a bit before devouring our curry. All of us got the omelet curry because the extra touch of egg just makes the experience so much tastier. The garlic Nan bread is also a must, by itself or dipped in the curry taste amazing and soft Defiantly a staple in OC everytime I come back!

You have to a reservation for This place as it gets really busy in the evenings. It’s been recommended by my family many times so had to give it a try when in the area. We tried chicken cutlet curry with omelet and spicy chicken teriyaki curry . Garlic naan with cheese was very very good. Spice level 7 was good for Indian palate.although I thought I could go until 8 or 9. May be next time . The fries were regular but fresh. The portions are quite good. Atmosphere was okay ish . Service was good. We definitely can’t have it regularly but once in a while definitely try it . It’s different than many other regular places.

Great flavors. Going there is pretty easy but the parking lot can get full. Once there, we had a small wait (high demand for the food) but once seated, everything went smoothly. Service was very good, even though the restaurant was busy. The setting is very casual but also very comfortable. Food was great. We split two pork cutlet curries with vegetables for myself, my wife, and daughter. We also got garlic naan and a small salad. Curry and salad (dressing) were fantastic; the garlic naan was good but not Indian restaurant good.

If you can handle the heat, go for 7 and above in spice levels. The curry tastes excellent, has delicious flavors, and you can add chicken, vegetables or an egg. The service is great, worth the wait, and definitely try Atleast once the spicy levels above 5. The fried chicken katsu also was great too.

Service was great and friendly, we we seated pretty quick was just a walk in before the dinner crowd. food was served at a decent time after we order. Chicken cheese cutlet was great just the aright amount cheese, chicken was crispy and juicy. The fries where nice and hot when served, each had there own unique taste. I like the chili cheese one. Portion for me was great very filling.

I tried Coco Ichibanya for the first time and it was an amazing experience!! We came around 11:30AM so it wasn’t super packed for lunch time yet. We ordered and within 10 minutes, our food was out! I got the korean fried chicken curry plate and it was amazing!!! The perfect amount of spicy and the chicken was so good with the curry. I would definitely get it again. We also got the cheese fries which were delicious. I would highly recommend this place if you like japanese curry!!
