Katchar Batchar

You can tell that chef did his own interpretation of Indian curry - I’m not saying he changed it, but there is a Japanese touch and it’s good. Some dishes are less biting-spicy but still have all the nice curry aroma. The curry sour soup is very tasty and goes well with rice. Tandoori chicken is tender and juicy. My friend really liked their cheese nan. We polished every dish on the table. It’s great food and very comforting in a cold and rainy night like tonight.

Absolutely delicious! Portion are big (especially the Naan!!), food is fresh, service is impeccable (very good English as well)! I was craving some Indian food and this place delivered 🥰

From the moment I stepped into Katchar Batchar, I was no longer in Tokyo but transported to a vibrant, bustling corner of India. This wasn't just a meal; it was a transcendent, mind-altering journey for my taste buds. To call it "good" is an insult to the sheer genius happening in that kitchen. It's a culinary masterpiece. The butter chicken is not just a dish, it's an emotion. A silky, rich, and ridiculously deep flavor that proves every other butter chicken I've ever had was a pale imitation. The spicy mutton curry? A revelation. I've never tasted such a tender, perfectly spiced explosion of flavor that left me wanting to lick the platter clean. Seriously. I almost did. Every spice, every ingredient, every single morsel is handled with a level of artistry and respect that is rarely seen. The naan is an ethereal cloud of perfection, the tandoori chicken is a smoky, juicy triumph, and the house-made chai is a warm, aromatic hug in a cup. This is a religious experience for curry lovers. The staff are so warm and welcoming, they feel like long-lost family. If you haven't been here, you haven't lived. Stop reading this and go. Now. Your life will be better for it. Katchar Batchar isn't just the best Indian food in Tokyo, it's the best Indian food on the planet.

Butter Chicken Curry was so good! Probably the best in my life! A little bit sweet so our 2 years old daughter could eat it too. No strange spice taste, it’s just yummy! If you visit here from JR Otsuka station, you cannot see the restaurant’s sign. You have to see the door sign from the Sin-Otsuka station side.

Amazing Indian restaurant. This is definitely a hidden gem. We had 4 different appetizers and each one was better than the others. For the main we did butter chicken which was mild in spice with amazing flavor. The achary chicken was great, way different than any other i had, spicy and great flavors. We had large naan and huge portions. 10/10

I was researching for best Indian restaurants in Tokyo and this one came up. The food was delicious! Service was wonderful. We had mutton curry and butter chicken curry (recommended for those who don’t want hot spicy foods), naan and mango lassi. For some reason, we got lost looking for the place, relying on Google maps and photos posted online of the facade. Note to self and to others, the restaurant is on the 2nd(?) floor (you need to go up a flight of stairs) and there’s a small signage by the stairs entrance which is beside a shoe shop, iirc.

Very delicious Indian food. The butter chicken is rather sweet but there are also more spicy dishes available. Will definitely come back again. Reservation is recommended, even for two people.

My partner and I have been here twice now and it is amazing! The service is great, the staff are really friendly, and the atmosphere is really pleasant. But most of all the food is 10/10. While I don't know what most of it is in English, their cheesy nan is to die for. It's chewy and savoury and delicious. Not to say that their curry isn't the star of the show, just all their dishes I've tried so far are amazingly flavourful. I would recommend for those who don't speak Japanese to look up their menu beforehand online. Happy eating!
