Food exactly what I had before during my trips to Japan. A bit pricey but well worth the taste and experience.
The best curry house in the philippines mabilis yung service nila sa robinson manila :)
love their curry so much, but the naan bread is a bit expensive if we want more of it.
Best Japanese curry on the world.
I have to admit I'm a little biased here because I'm addicted to Coco curry. So when the first Coco Ichibanya opened, I had to check it out. Gladly the food is as delicious as its Japan counterparts but the ambiance is a little different.
Coco Ichibanya in Japan is more of a fast food than a proper restaurant. But here, it's a proper restaurant with proper restaurant service. The ambiance also feels a lot more posh than the ones in Japan, even more posh than other restaurants in the Philippines.
The price is just about the same in Japan which means it might be a little expensive for most Filipinos. Still though, it's a must try if you haven't had Japanese curry before.
We ordered:
- Shrimp curry rice gratin
- Pork cutlet curry
Taste was good, ambience was great, service was great, value for money, would come back again
This is one no fuzz meal. I think the price is on the expensive side for this kind of meal but taste wise, it is good. You can personalize the spice level and also the size.
The menu is extensive.. Might get you a while to read through the menu and choose if you really have no idea on what to eat.
They have kids menu too. Pretty good size for a 5 year old to finish by himself.
Curry and Katsu really work! I can’t really taste how different they claim their curry to be from other Japanese restaurants and what I can make out of a box though. I like that you can set how much rice you can eat because I don’t eat a lot of it.
I’m not a fan of japanese curry so it’s my first time to try it here. (S/O to my friends for forcing me to eat here lol)
When ordering your food you can choose your own level of spicyness. I thought it was a bit expensive for a curry but when they served the food it was a big plate serving good food. 👌🏻
What we had:
Beef Omelet Curry
Pork Cutlet Omelet Curry
Pork Cutlet Curry with Vegetables
If you guys love japanese curry then this restaurant will surely satisfy your cravings.

I have been wanting to eat in CoCo Ichibanya ever since a saw an outlet in Japan.. Unfortunately i haven’t tried it there.. So we went to Estancia Mall and tried it.. I tried their Pork Cutlet and Vegetable Curry and it is typical japanese Curry.. I should try their Curry Omelet next time.. I enjoyed their Ice Cream Dessert.. the Staff where very accomodating to my children and helpful..

I always go to Coco Ichibanya to satisfy my japanese curry cravings. First time to try the Estancia branch and it did not disappoint!
Pork Cutlet and Vegetables Curry Rice
The creamy consistency of the curry sauce is what makes Coco stand out among other restaurants. Unlike others who will serve you curry sauce that borders on being watery jello blobs, the curry sauce plays on your tongue and leaves you wanting for more (sensual much).
Just be mindful on the spiciness level... despite being a spice girl (yep!), i just stick to level 3. I tried level 4 once last year and it felt warm in my tummy (didn’t induce LBM despite the level 4 so good job!).
The pork cutlet was of the right crispiness yet soft on the inside. I just move them away from the curry seas to the rice land (hey the plating looks like an island/beach) to prevent the pork from being too soggy.
The rice is of the high quality. I can finish them all if I wasn’t controlling my rice consumption.
I usually alternate the veggie with the omelette version depending on my whim. Both are very good!
Chicken and Rice Curry Gratin
My first time to eat this. The server warned us that this will be dry since it’s baked. And true enough, the server was right! Masarap yung cheese, but could’ve been better if the curry was...er.. saucy? I’d still go for the classic curry rice for my curry fix.
Naan
Just had to order this. For what is curry sauce without naan? It’s fresh and warm and it feels good to eat with bare hands.
Chocolate Choux Crème
Promo item - came free with the pork and veggie curry rice. We thought it’s gonna have a warm rich choco feeling oozing out of the bread. But surprised to find out that the filling was some sort of chocolate ice cream! Also surprised that it was only half-filled vs the promo photos. Nonetheless, masarap pa rin sya with just the right amount of sweetness to satisfy your tito/tita tastebuds.
Overall, Coco Ichibanya is highly recommended! Kinda pricey but you get what you paid for. Will definitely return!
Whenever I crave for Japanese curry rice, Coco Ichibanya is the first thing that comes to my mind. This restaurant has obviously spent a good amount of time refining their recipes, and it shows. It's by far one of the best curry houses I've tried in Metro Manila, and it's a good thing that there's a branch near our office! :) For P300++ a plate, their curry dishes are a good deal. The sauces are properly rich and luxurious.
In several occasions during lunch, we've had their cheese hamburger curry, pork cutlet curry, shrimp cutlet curry, salads, and coffee.
Everything tastes brilliant, and the spiciness will make you reach for a glass of water. Not sure food is spicy enough, they offer the chili powder on the table so you can add and adjust heat according to your appetite.
This branch in Eastwood is almost always packed during lunch time so plan your visit ahead. While the original curries are the best reason to go, the pastas on the menu also look like they’re worth a try.
Coco made me cuckoo over Japanese curry. I love how fluffy their rice is. The hamburger curry is cooked very beautifully and so as the omu rice.
