Curry House (restaurant chain)
Curry House was a Japanese-style curry restaurant chain based in California, United States. The chain was known for its unique take on Japanese curry, offering a variety of curry dishes, including katsu curry, vegetable curry, and seafood curry. Curry House was a popular destination for those seeking authentic Japanese curry in the United States.
History[edit | edit source]
Curry House was established in 1983 by House Foods America Corporation, a subsidiary of House Foods Corporation, a major Japanese food manufacturer. The first Curry House restaurant opened in Los Angeles, California, and quickly gained popularity for its flavorful and customizable curry dishes.
Menu[edit | edit source]
The menu at Curry House featured a wide range of curry dishes, each served with a choice of rice or udon noodles. Customers could choose from various levels of spiciness and add toppings such as tonkatsu (breaded pork cutlet), chicken katsu, and shrimp tempura. In addition to curry, the menu also included other Japanese dishes such as omurice (omelette rice), hamburg steak, and spaghetti with Japanese-style sauces.
Locations[edit | edit source]
At its peak, Curry House operated multiple locations across California, including restaurants in Los Angeles, Torrance, Cypress, and San Diego. Each location maintained a consistent menu and atmosphere, providing a familiar dining experience for regular customers.
Closure[edit | edit source]
In February 2020, Curry House abruptly closed all of its locations. The sudden closure was attributed to financial difficulties faced by the parent company, House Foods America Corporation. The news of the closure was met with disappointment from loyal customers who had frequented the restaurant chain for decades.
Legacy[edit | edit source]
Despite its closure, Curry House remains fondly remembered by many for its contribution to popularizing Japanese curry in the United States. Former patrons often reminisce about their favorite dishes and the unique flavors that Curry House offered.
