About this place
Imahana’s katsu curry is worth considering when you want a satisfying plate with the cutlet at its heart. Chicken katsu curry is listed at ¥780, while the medium portion costs ¥880 and comes with 2 times the usual amount of cutlet. One diner who chose the medium portion described curry poured over the cutlet; another likened the flavour of the 2-times katsu curry to Kanazawa-style curry. Opinions seem divided on how firm the breading is, so this is a distinctive take for anyone curious to try katsu curry with a particular texture.
Omurice is another option, served with either demi-glace sauce or curry. One diner who had the curry-topped version recalled that its simple sauce was delicious and that the dish disappeared in no time. Among the set meals, one diner described the chicken nanban as “crisp and juicy”, while others say they return for the ginger pork set. The chicken nanban set is offered with 1.5 or 2 times the usual amount of meat, making it easy to choose a portion to suit your appetite.
The atmosphere is quiet, and diners have mentioned eating lunch at the counter or sitting alone at a table. Imahana accepts cash only, so be sure to bring enough for your meal.
