Abiko Curry

This place mainly focuses on curry, and you can choose the base: rice (classic), udon (thick and chewy, really good), or pasta (didn’t try it this time but will next time). The price is very affordable, which makes it perfect for a quick lunch or dinner, especially if you’re working nearby. You can choose a regular curry or add different meats and vegetables. The fried items are all available as add-ons — the tonkatsu, chicken nuggets, sausage, and tempura shrimp are all very tasty. They also serve shredded cabbage with Thousand Island dressing on the side, which helps balance the richness. For example, if you order beef curry rice and add tonkatsu, you basically get two portions of meat. Definitely worth trying!

Was able to walk in and get a table quickly. The food was easy to order via a screen at the table. The food came quickly and was steaming hot. I got the medium spicy vegetable curry with rice with chicken katsu. The spice was enough for me. The chicken was crispy and a good accompaniment to the vegetable curry. Overall it was an easy quick meal with good service. You can pay with cash or card but the prices on the menu are for cash payment. It was $27 cash or $30 credit payment for the meal and a soda which is a bit pricey but there don’t seem to be many curry-only options in the area.

Abiko Curry in Manhattan is hands down my favorite curry spot, and I finally brought my fiancée—she gets the hype now. The curry here has a deep, rich flavor profile that’s totally different from other places. It’s bold, comforting, and tastes like it’s been built layer by layer, not just “spicy sauce over rice.” I ordered one of the hottest spice levels, and it honestly wasn’t unbearable at all—so if you love spicy food, don’t be scared to level up. You’ll get the heat, but it won’t ruin the flavor. Service is quick, the food comes out fast, and it’s super efficient. The space is small and straightforward—more of a “go in, eat, enjoy, and head out” type of spot rather than a loungey dinner destination. We didn’t wait and were seated right away. If you’re looking for Japanese curry in NYC that’s rich, satisfying, and consistent, Abiko is a must.

It's a good restaurant. I normally don't like curry much. But I came here with my friends and I was surprised I enjoyed the food. I ended up getting the beef curry noodles and enjoyed it a lot. I ordered it extra spicy which is their second highest spicy level. Unfortunately, I didn't think it was that spicy at all. I didn't enjoy the pork chops either. They were pricey. To be fair, I don't think most Korean restaurants get pork chops right. It is pretty bland and dry even when I dip it in the curry soup. For me, just the curry noodles are great. I wouldn't recommend the pork chop add ons.

The curry is very tasty. The service was good too. Overall, the main attraction of this place for me was the coziness. This is one of the places you can really come and have a meal alone. For South Asians, the curry is not like the curry from South Asia. It tastes similar to when Maggi masala is added to a curry.

Really delicious curry. I’m not a curry person and I will definitely come back here again. I shared the eggplant curry with melting cheese and chicken cutlet. Plenty of food, way too much for one person. Super flavorful, the curry does not make anything soggy. The eggplant was super soft and melted in my mouth. The pickled radish added a fresh crunch and I loved mixing the rice with the sauce and cheese. You sit down and order at the table on an iPad. The food comes out really quick. You press the call button to order receipt. Two bathrooms in the back. Plenty of empty tables at 7 on a Wednesday. This place seems like a hidden gem in k town, since other places have such long lines. I know other foodies who love this place as well. I will be back!

Great curry spot in K-Town. Even though we had a large group, we were able to find seating quickly during peak dinner time. The restaurant has a simple ambiance, nice and clean. We ordered a variety of dishes, including the vegetable curry and vegetable noodle. We picked medium spicy and it was perfect. Very filling and flavorful dishes overall. Service was great and pricing was quite reasonable.

I got the basic curry with a chicken cutlet, fried shrimp, extra garlic and scallion. I’ve been to Abiko Curry before in 2019 and I must say that the quality has dipped. The curry itself was not as flavorful as I remember it to be. However, the chicken cutlet is nice and crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. You also get a large portion of rice and it’s worth getting the cutlet if you’re very hungry because it’s definitely very large and filling. I will say, I miss their larger cubed pickled radish because it balanced the quantity of the curry much better.

Staffs were friendly. This is a great Japanese curry restaurant to eat in Koreantown. Ordered food to go. You can adjust spiciness to the curry. I chose the lowest level, it had a nice kick to it. Would recommend eating coming here again. Food: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambience: 5/5

it's alright... I've been here several times over the years. The food has gone down hill in my most recent visit. Staff was friendly and the wait time is always short at this restaurant which is nice to see in Ktown. The inside has several large tables which can be arranged to fit large groups or many small groups.

Came back here to give this place another try as I thought Abiko curry was more so the traditional curry but was a bit disappointed. No wait around 6pm on a Thursday night but it was still pretty packed. Sat down and toggled with the self service order. Quick and easy. When our dishes arrived, I expected spicy to actually be spicy but they either forgot to add spicy to my dish or this is just their standard spicy but I think Sriracha has more spice to it. Curry is also runnier than what I was used to and meat were sparse so.. not sure you really get a bang for your buck. Service was good though and location is convenient but this isn't on the top of my list to return to.

I always enjoy coming here to chow down on my favorite dish - Cheesy Pork Chop with Basic Curry Rice. The decor is nice and the service is great. Can't wait to come back for more!!

I got the regular curry with pork, the cutlet was really juice and juicy. The curry tasted very flavorful but it was not outstanding or extraordinary. It was still a good meal and I would definitely come back again

Easily one of my favorite spots to hang at with my friends. The vibes are chill and the food is great. Lots of noodle, rice, pasta, and curry dishes to choose from. I went with the rice and beef option, and it was very tasty and filling. The egg and onion bits made it better.

First off, I loved the rich spicy curry taste this dish had and in hindsight, I wished I ordered katsu with it. However, it was a very generous portion overall. The curry is more of a soup texture as opposed to thick. The restaurant was much bigger than I expected and had plenty of seating. It was also very convenient to order and get the bill using an ipad. Was worth it!

TLDR: terrible food. Even worse service. Go somewhere else!! Came here on a rainy Sunday night, around 8pm for dinner as a group of 6 people. This place has been on my list of places I've wanted to go to for a while and I was excited after reading all the positive reviews. Upon entering, there was no one to greet us and we stood near the door hoping to be seated. It was clear they were understaffed. After about 5 minutes, we were able to spot a staff member who could help us. I walk over to ask him how long the wait is for a table for 6 people. However, he immediately yells at us for water that's from our dripping umbrellas. This put us all in a bad mood like Hmm... sorry we can't control the weather. It rains. Water drips from umbrellas. It's nature. So he tells us to put our umbrellas on the floor by the front door before walking in. Clearly there are unspoken rules for people who aren't even sure if they're staying yet. And clearly they can't handle ten drops of water. With peace in mind, I put my umbrella down and then step in to ask again how long the wait would be for 6 people. He goes very rudely, "I don't know. Around 30 minutes or so. Do you want to wait?" I tell him, "One minute please. Let me ask my friends." So I go back to my friends who are still by the door. I quickly tell them about the interaction and the possible half hour wait. We were going to go somewhere else and I'm sure they caught on. So immediately they tell us they have a table ready. So strange that the table that was already clear, they told us it would be a half hour wait and then when we're ready to leave that they would offer it to us. It was a table all the way in the back of the restaurant and let me tell you... it smelled like absolute garbage. We were thinking it was the end of the night, they had garbage piled up in the back of the kitchen ready to be put out on the street or something. We try to ignore the smell and we order our food. I ordered the vegetable curry noodles as I love noodles and I wanted to try their highly rated curry. I chose spicy level 2. The food itself wasn't spicy and there was barely flavor in the curry. It was actually very bland and seemed watered down, despite the dark color of the flavor. There was a decent amount of vegetables in it- at least enough to be expected. But that's about it. Mind you, we were trying to eat with the garbage smelling table or area we were placed at. Besides the staff member who I encountered prior to being seated, the waiter who placed our orders and filled our waters for us was actually very nice. He was very efficient and very kind. If only the first guy could learn some manners from the waiter. Having bad weather or being short staffed is not a reason to take out your temper on potential customers since you work in a field that deals with other people and we were nothing but kind. After our meal that most of us didn't finish, we pretty much rushed out of there and once leaving the table, it was obvious that only that back portion of the restaurant had that terrible odor. Leaving the restaurant was a breath of fresh air, literally and figuratively. Would I come back? Would I recommend this establishment to anyone? No. At least not anytime soon. Please have your staff treat customers more nicely and if you know there's a table in an area with terrible odor, please leave it empty. Don't just sit people there just because they're about to leave. Also, add more flavor to your food. Would I give this place another try? It's a possibility to give it another try and hopefully have a better experience. But like I said, not anytime soon. There's so many other restaurants in Ktown where they have better mannered staff and where the food actually tastes great. Sadly, this was not a great experience even though I had heard great things about it here. Save your money and go elsewhere for better food and service.

Curry was so delicious here and service was good! The portions were large and the spice levels weren't crazy. The medium is tolerable which is my preference.

We were wandering around K-Town after visiting a spa and decided to go for lunch. We were little taken aback but they don't have a lunch menu but the aroma of the curry was so delicious. We had to stay. The staff here is very cordial. Inattentive, we both got the herb chicken curry and it was fantastic.It doesn't look like there's a lot in the plate but it is. I was stuffed after eating half. There was a was a little disappointment for the small quantity of onions, but the sliced garlic and scallion was a nice touch.

The presentation of the dish had me a little worried but it was actually very good to taste. Beef was not overdone and was good quality. Service was not the best but not bad and there's ample space to accommodate a larger group.

This is newly found gem for me in Korea-town-Went there on a rainy cold day and it was perfect. Their curries are amazing- Tried it with pasta and rice both and cant decide which one was better. Serving process is simple and efficient. You order over table kiosk and server brings it to you. Yes their spice levels are no joke so please dont experiment with spicey level cause i have seen people at other tables crying lol. We ordered their mild level whcih was great! Gravy was cheesy and rich. Everything was really flavor-ful.

Love this spot! Regularly come here with my friends whenever we're looking for some good curry. I usually order the Basic Curry Rice with the Cheese Pork Cutlet. So good and very filling. This place is fairly popular and in NYC's Koreatown so don't be surprised if you have to wait a bit to be seated. Definitely worth trying!

Came back here again for the second time, place is still just as fire Food was amazing and service was super fast!

I'm rating Abiko Curry 5 stars solely on the food and it being the best East Asian curry rice specialty restaurant in the Northeast. My experience has been ups and downs with this place, particularly the service over the years, but I keep coming back for the food and that means something, especially for a fan of curry rice. The style is Japanese, so you order a base sauce and order toppings to your liking. It's does slightly lean Korean-Japanese fusion, as you could tell with the curry pastas and some of the toppings. Should really be of no surprise that Koreans can make Japanese food though, as people seem to forget just how many Korean-Japanese people work in the food industry in Japan, probably because of issues I don't want to get into here. Some people mistaken Abiko as Korean curry, but Korean-style curry typically has more tumeric, meaning it looks more yellow and is a bit more naturally spicy that's different from capsaicin powder added to up the heat level, and Korean curry typically has stuff like vegetables and a choice of protein mixed in. In my latest visit, we ordered the Chicken Curry Set and an Eggplant Cream Curry Pasta. I had my doubts about the eggplant one, but it really works as long as you don't hate eggplant. Chicken Katsu was good, herb chicken curry was especially tasty with the garlic flakes, and croquettes are one of my favorite fried food. I ordered mine spicy level 3, but don't feel obligated to add any heat at all, since it tastes good regardless. Sadly, seems entrees no longer come with miso soup and radish kimchi, and ordering extra toppings doesn't come with shredded cabbage salad. Probably because people not understanding the culture kept complaining that it wasn't the best miso soup they've ever had or something, not realizing that the freebie is just served as a good, warm alternative to water for downing the food. Why can't we ever have nice things? Lastly, one thing I do wish for is for there to be more set options, such as the Cream Curry Pasta set having the choice to order different types of Cream Curry Pasta with an upcharge or being able to order the Couple's Set with Chicken Katsu instead of Pork Katsu. Or the egg being soft-boiled or poached.

Honestly an underrated gem in Ktown. The curry is delicious with some very appetizing spicier levels if you enjoy spice. Especially eating in the restaurant, the whole meal including the katsu comes out hot, crispy, and delicious. Service is non-existent, you order off a tablet but waiters bring water and your food to the table. Wait time for food is fast. Ambiance is fine, a bit meh but standard for the area.

The is place is amazingly delicious. Its been the second time Ive gone in to dine here. This time they had new ipads where you can order the food on right away. It makes the service quicker. The staff is nice. They came by to refill the water and ask of everything is going well. The place is nice clean and quiet. The ambiance can be romantic or have family gatherings. We got the pork curry with the sides of karaage, cheese pork katsu and cheese croquettes.we got it with a medium spice and it was gave a nice warm feeling the more the food was eaten. The meats cooked really well and the croquettes were fluffy and light. Once we finished our meal we checked out on the ipad and they brought over the check which can be paid in card and cash. Cash tip is preferred here.

Very casual curry joint. You self order via the tablets on every table and service is very quick as they really keep the line moving lol. I got the mushroom curry and added croquettes. Price was decent but felt like it was very average curry and rice. Nice option for a quick lunch but personally probably wouldnt come back

Level 3 if you want a challenge Level 2 if you want a kick Don't get the spiciest level unless you are a spice warrior

This has to be one of my favorite curry places ever. I discovered here about 5 years ago and forgotten where I had gone and was searching for it ever since. I went back yesterday and it was just as amazing if not better than the first time. They changed up the service a bit where you order on a iPad/ tablet as opposed to with a waiter, which is convenient and the establishment still looks as clean as it did the first time I went. The curry itself tastes so good. It's not like Caribbean curry which I'm used to, but there are levels of spicy that you can get. They also give really good portion sizes for the price too. If you are into Japanese curry, I 100% recommend you try this place.

The curry is light, flavorful, and delicious. The cutlet paired nicely with the curry. However, for $27 the portion was on the smaller side. Even though the curry and cutlet taste good, I don't think it's good for me because I got heartburn after :( I got medium spicy and it was the right amount.

Hands down my favorite Japanese curry place in the city. Eat here atleast once in 3 months- kinda my comfort food beat 33rd. The vegetarian curry with rice and garlic flakes, melted cheese is very appetizing and delicious. Add on the cream cheese croquettes if you're sharing a plate!

I tried Abiko Curry for the very first time last summer. This place has become my go-to for Japanese curry because of the consistently good food and the cozy atmosphere. They offer a variety of curry dishes with different spice levels. My usual order is the Beef Curry Rice with a side of pork katsu. The beef is tender and goes well with the thick curry sauce. The pork katsu is crispy and adds a nice crunch to the meal. The spice levels here are labeled in Korean, from "baby" for mild to extremely hot options. I usually pick the medium spice level, which has enough heat to add flavor without being overwhelming. Service has been streamlined with iPad ordering at the tables, making it quick to get what you need. It's efficient and ensures you don't have to wait long for anything. If you're in the mood for Japanese curry, Abiko is a solid choice. The food is great, the service is quick, and the environment is welcoming. Definitely worth a visit!

Love their creamy spaghetti curry. Just like it's called, love the creaminess of this curry, which matches so well with the pasta. My personal favorite is always with their beef (bugolgi type beef). A few of the toppings e.g. garlic flakes are free. This place is within Ktown so pretty convenient. Extra utensil, nakpins are available in the draw under each table. You order you food on the tablet and service is pretty quick. Already craving this place while writing this review. Haha.

Super flavorful dishes and large portions! Good amount of seating and speedy service! Pocha-like ambiance.

I've been here three times so far and loved it each time. They recently switched to a tablet ordering system. Having visuals of the food helps me to decide what to get even though it's one of two items- lol. I love that each table has a drawer with chopsticks, napkins, etc. You can even call over a waiter asking for the bill. As usual, the curry was hot (both temperature and spice), satisfying and fresh. My friends and I are already looking forward to go back!

My friends and I came here after a stay at the spa nearby. The service was easy since we ordered on a tablet. The utensils and napkins were in a drawer at the table so it was convenient. We each got different dishes to try and they were all pretty good. It was standard Japanese curry and hit the spot after a day of traveling and being in the spa.

The curry was good! Very sweat but it can be more thick though instead of watery. Service was good, it was full but we were still able to get seated within 5min like they said. The ambiance was good similar to a feel of ramen restaurant but except it was curry! I would come back again to try other things on the menu like the curry noodles. I think the watery curry would be more suited for the curry noodle over the nice.

I first tried Abiko Curry in Korea, and that was also when I tried curry udon for the first time. I used to eat curry pretty often because my mom liked to make it at home, which eventually led to me getting tired of it. Abiko Curry changed curry for me completely! The noodles were al dente and were the coated with the perfect amount of flavor from the curry. The katsu I ordered on the side was crispy on the outside, but it didn't stand out as particularly juicy or tender to me. We ordered on the digital screen at our seats, and the food didn't take long to come out. It wasn't too loud or busy around lunchtime on a weekday, but I do suggest going about 10 minutes before noon if you want to be seated immediately for lunch.

Tasty and hearty food in ktown. Few years ago there always used to be a wait for this spot but the hype has since died down. Food is always pretty solid (a bit watery but still good) and the curry spice always hits. My favorite is the curry udon but my friends all love the curry + rice combo with any variety of katsu on top. Service is always a bit slow but at least the ordering system is through an iPad, so the food comes out pretty quickly. Would just recommend asking for the check much before you want to leave as that's a whole process. The past few times I've been, the shop has been ~80% capacity, so I've been able to easily get a spot, though I occasionally see a short line of people waiting.

Came in on a Thursday for lunch. There were plenty of tables available at the time. I just picked one and sat down. Ordered a basic curry with tonkatsu. The curry is thin. It would have been better if it was a little thicker. However, the flavor isn't bad. The rice wasn't cooked with enough water, but ultimately it didn't matter as much as long as you ate it with the curry. I wanted more green onion and garlic. Tonkatsu was good, nice crispy outside. Pork is a little dry, but again, just eat it with the curry. It is expensive for curry. It adds up if you choose a curry other than basic and if you want multiple toppings. I didn't appreciate the staff verbally telling me to pay with cash and having it written on the check. I realize that most businesses prefer cash, but if it's an option to pay with card, you shouldn't push your customers to pay in cash. They could also offer an incentive to pay with cash if they really wanted it like how other businesses do.

My friends and I had a very disappointing experience here. Our server asked us how many orders we had. We told him two because we thought he meant how many grouped orders we would be placing via the iPads. He proceeded to accuse us of staying here just to "hang out," even though we all planned to order our own dish. The food was okay, not as good as it was pre-renovations and for much higher prices. Medium spicy used to mean something at Abiko. If you want actual spicy, make sure to order a higher spice level.

My bf and I were craving something to eat in k-town Friday night but most spots were full and had lines. We decided to come here for some good comfort food but overall the food was okay but not worth the price. I ordered the pork curry rice that came with a few pieces of pork with decent spiciness since you get to pick the level spice you want. But I didn't find it worth it. If you want actual katsu you have to pay $8-10 extra for it in order for it to be filling meal. It would have been about $30 for my meal if I were to get that. Definitely I can get pork or chicken curry katsu for a much cheaper price elsewhere. But Overall the food was not bad, service was okay and can be a lively spot on weekends. Wouldn't go back only because of the much expensive but simple extras.

There was a line at around 8pm Friday night, but it moved quickly. He was already taking our orders while still in line so we did not wait long after we were seated. When you sit down, your knees will bump into a drawer under your table, where they keep the napkins and utensils. I got the Pork Cutlet Set, but next time I would just opt for the basic curry rice and pork cutlet. The curry itself had the right thickness and perfect spice (medium only for me), while the rice was sticky enough and soft with a delicious chew. I've been craving Japanese Curry these couple of months and I found Abiko closest to my curry preference. The staff here in this branch was quite capable of manning the line and the diners with swiftness and ease. I'll be back.

Would give around a 3.7 if I could, but rounding up for good measure:). This place is a solid place to come for a meal! The pork cutlet is super crispy and the rice is great as well. The portions are a little small for the price, but overall not bad. Overall okay but I'm a fan of katsu so this gets my vote!

Considering the curry was prepared for 100 hours... it was delicious! The consistency was soup-like and not as thick as others. The rice paired perfectly and had good texture. I got the Beef Curry Rice, which had stewed onions and thinly slice beef that was very fatty - similar to shabu shabu beef. I tried some of my friend's pork cutlet with cheese and this was AMAZING. Definitely the star on the menu. If you come here, get the cheese pork cutlet for sure. This is a Korean-owned Japanese curry spot. I liked that they described each spicy level in Korean. Mild was "baby" and perfect for me. They say the spiciest option is 2-3 times spicier than Buldak Fire Noodles.

Tip: pay in cash to avoid a surcharge I've been here 5-6 years ago and came back recently. I think they've lost their touch slightly. I tried my friend's beef curry rice at level 3 spice and it was not as spicy as it was before (I love spice but a level 2 was good for me while level 3 was slightly over my comfort level) and the taste was not as rich. The beef itself was tender and thin though. I got the seafood cream curry past for the first time here. The noodles were firm and the shrimp was not overcooked but the sauce itself was on blander than I'd like. I'd go elsewhere for my curry fix especially since the prices are on the higher side here.

I fully believe there can never be enough Japanese curry places, which is why I welcome a specialty spot like Abiko. Their food is solid and makes for a nice lunch option for those in Midtown and presents a nice alternative to Korean fare in KTown. It will likely be passable for the average Japanese curry enthusiast, but works for me in any casual meal setting. Like many spots in NYC / Japan, the interior is tight, somewhat cramped. Group meals are possible, but not without a combination of luck and timing. Solo dining or date dining is the most ideal, even if most of the conversation is eavesdropped by the adjacent dining party. Overall, I appreciate that they've kept the place looking modern and clean. Overall, I give a thumbs up for the presentation of most of the curry dishes. Portions are going to be average, such as the several strips of katsu from the basic curry. I like throwing in a few more items, such as their croquettes, eggs, and some extra protein, which will cost a few more dollars. Big ups to those who can handle the level 3 spice, which is most definitely hot. Customer service hasn't been the best experience for me, which has been marred by little slips ups, an occasional order mixup, and some apathy during their peak lunch hours. I understand it can be a little busy, so I normally focus on the food and usually try to surround myself in good company so that any experience can still be a relatively good one.

This Korean run place is listed as one of the best Japanese style curry places in NYC. For me, it was just average. The flavor of their curry is actually decent and they let you choose the spice level as well from a scale of 1 to 5. A 1 is mild, while a 5 is very spicy. I had the 2 and thought it was still fairly mild. However, their prices are high for the portion size. They do not give you enough rice, and they are very cheap with the amount of meat. I've been to a Manhattan location of the Japanese curry chain Go Go Curry! (which is actually from Japan) and they are much better than this place with a much lower price, larger portion and better quality curry.

Curry is on the watery side. Portions of your selected protein are small. I got the mushroom curry, but don't recommend it. Service was fine. We didn't have any issues except for when the check came and they told us to pay in cash. We were confused as they had accepted card previously and did not tell us before we were seated that they were taking cash-only. Thankfully the both of us had cash, but a warning beforehand definitely would have been appreciated. They surprisingly have a lot of seats inside. Most people finish within an hour so if there is a wait, I doubt it would be for too long. P.S. Yes, Go Go Curry is better

This is an OK spot for a quick lunch. IMHO, does not compared to the rich curry from Go Go Curry! And Curry House chain in Japan! They have my heart. It's kind of dark from the outside but once inside, it's spacious... enough for lunch crowd in Ktown. The curry is a little too sloppy (like too watery... ) and the pork cutlet is not thick enough... the set comes with thinly slicked pork in the curry sauce which has absolutely no purpose.... Except that it tasted like "boiled" sliced pork.. in curry.... the service is good, I mean I did come for an early lunch so only 1 table of patrons... but once I ordered my food - a few more tables of lunch goers popped in. But not packed. Food comes out quick. I also ate pretty fast. Hence a quick lunch. I got the pork cutlet combo/set with a coke. I added pork sausages! Love those! Overall - solid 3 lunch spot. #yelplife #midtownNYC

My friends and I wanted an inexpensive and casual place to eat so we stopped by Abiko curry. We got there at around 7:45pm on a Tuesday and it was pretty easy to walk in. They don't seat you unless the whole party is here so I'd keep that in mind. My friends got the chicken set and I got a pork set and a side of croquettes. The sets come with the curry, katsu, and a soda. I liked how you can choose your spice level and I was surprised at how spicy level 2 was. On the menu it said that level 2 spice is comparable to shin ramen but I think it was spicier than shin ramen. The curry is a little bit on the watery side. I thought the croquettes were good! Knocking down a star because of the price. Personally I think gogo curry has a better deal for the price. But, I think this place is a good spot in ktown if you don't feel like drinking, trying to find a spot at the food court, or want a quick bite! Bring cash if you want to save the service fee.

My friends and I came here on a Friday evening and there was no wait for a table. It definitely filled up a lot more after we were done. It was very spacious inside. First step is choosing if you would like curry rice, curry noodle, or curry cream pasta. There are also some other options as well like donburi. Second step is the spiciness level and lastly, choosing your additional toppings. The green onion and garlic flake are free. There are also some set options. I had the shrimp curry rice. This was a really good portion and there was a lot of sauce. I was able to smother the rice with the curry and it tasted really good. There was a good number of shrimp. Service was great and food came out soon after ordering. There is a cash discount if you pay in cash and a service fee for credit card transactions.

Solid!! I had this place in Korea and wanted to see if the quality would remain consistent in the states as well. It did! Very delicious curry katsu and good portions. Service was great and quick and the interior was spacious.

First time having curry pasta. While the flavor was good, it didn't feel too special. It is more soupy than expected--I think I would've enjoyed it more with rice as it was so watery. The food came out super hot. ~10 min wait for a group of 7 ~8pm Wednesday.

Ever since I discovered Abiko, I became possessed by it. I absolutely love Japanese Curry. I have eaten at Abiko over 20 times over the years. I go for the warm spicy comfort food, how filling it is, and how consistent the quality is. The service is normal, they will keep your glass of water full and come quickly when you need something. The tables have drawers with utensils and they have recently updated with ipads you can order and request service on. I always get the Basic Curry Rice with melting cheese, chicken cutlet, and cream cheese croquettes. There are four levels of spice and I get Level 4 because I have great spice tolerance. Level 2 is recommended if you want something a little spicy but manageable. I highly recommend Abiko, it's flavorful and filling.

The portion was satisfying, and all the options are curry-based with either rice or noodles. If you prefer a basic sauce without too many condiments then this is the place for you

After passing by Abiko countless times, I finally dropped by for some Japanese curry. Their menu has a ton of options for customizing your curry rice or noodle dish. If the customizations are too much, I suggest getting one of their set meals. I got the Noodle set which was really large and pretty good. Come hungry so you can finish if you go for the set option. Service was quick fast and smooth. As a side note, I love how their tables double as a storage area for chopsticks and napkins. That's some good practical and convenient furniture.

I have had this spot on my NYC bucket list for quite a while and was surprised by the flavor of the dishes. The curry tasted phenomenal, however, I did notice that it is a bit different than usual Japanese curry. The consistency is not as thick and stew-like, rather it is a bit thin but the flavor was definitely there. We ordered 3 entrees: Spicy pork curry rice, Basic curry noodle with shrimp and chicken tempura, and Seafood cream curry pasta. Abiko Curry does a great job with spice level. I wish the shrimp and chicken tempura were more crunchy, maybe next time I will ask for it on the side. The creaminess of the seafood cream curry pasta was decadent and the squid pieces were the perfect bite size. Overall, I would recommend Abiko Curry as a spot to try out when you are in the city!
