Japanese Curry Hyuga - Burlingame

Their food is awesome!But the staff isn’t friendly at all. We felt really uncomfortable about the staff who’s working to clean the table and check out the payment. He came to our table to clear the table several times even though we still had a lot of food on the plates, which was really annoying. He indeed only thinks about the efficiency of customers.Also, the toilet isn't cleaned. Careful if you're fastidious.

Came in on a busy Easter Sunday and decided to try something new. The beef hayashi om rice with a side of corn potage soup. Everything looked delicious. Sadly the rice was way too mushy (parts were starting to turn to pudding. I'm pretty sure it's not reheated rice. Maybe a bad rice cooker? I highly recommend that they use a scale 1cup of rice to 1 cup of water ratio. That's 1:1.2 ratio by weight.edit: everything else was very tasty. Katsu was breaded fried to perfection, 1st time trying the hayashi corn potage nicely seasoned.update: rice has been perfect the last 2 visits. so ?Parking: You can usually find free parking on the side streets.

Very quick friendly service, huge portion sizes, simple straightforward menu. 10/10!

This curry place worths the high reviews. It is hard to discern the extra-ordinariness of curry when you can buy those japanese curry blocks and cook them at home easily. The curry here is rich in flavors: sweet (I guess from onion), salty, umami, and even tangy (I guess from some fruit or vinegar). The pork katsu is also perfectly cooked. My friend likes karaage too. He said it is quite unique as well. The price is also reasonable compared to the quality of the food. The shop is quite small so please be ready to wait in line. It is not a crazy wait though. I would love to visit this place and try other dishes like Hayashi omurice as well.

Curry Hyuga had long been on my culinary radar, and today, I finally had the chance to experience it. The occasion arose as I needed to pick up my partner at SFO later, and given the mere 10-minute drive from the restaurant to the airport, it seemed like the perfect opportunity to satiate my appetite and make the most of my time, rather than aimlessly circling around the airport. Conveniently, there are numerous public parking lots scattered throughout the town.The restaurant opens its doors at 11:30 am, and I arrived promptly at 11:25 am, only to find a queue already forming outside, as depicted in the photo. The attentive server, Yuki promptly greeted each customer and kept my water glasses filled, setting a positive tone for the dining experience.Opting for their Signature Curry Rice Entree, which features their caramelized onion curry accompanied by shredded cabbage, creamy potato salad, and Fukujin pickles, I decided to elevate my meal by adding Chicken Cutlet Katsu Curry with Chicken Karaage as additional toppings. To my amazement, my order was delivered to my table in a mere 3 minutes, which left me thoroughly impressed. Curry Hyuga's standout feature is their incredibly tender meat, perfectly complemented by their mouthwatering curry—a true masterpiece with Kanazawa-style sweetness and richness that sets it apart.To further customize your dish, they offer a selection of five different spices: Ichimi Togarashi, Jalapeno Pepper, Pequin Pepper, Wiri Wiri Pepper, and Orange Habanero. I had the pleasure of sampling all of them, and personally, I found the Wiri Wiri Pepper and Orange Habanero powder to be standout choices. Their spiciness elevated the curry to a whole new level, complemented by the unique fragrance of the peppers.
