Despite the hot weather, I was craving for spicy and stimulating food, and this restaurant hit the spot! It was Saturday, so maybe that's why the lunch menu I saw before when passing by was not available, so I opted for a simple lunch that came with rice. The butter chicken curry arrived quickly. With just one bite, I found it to be smooth and very easy for Japanese people to eat, not too spicy but just right. They can adjust the spiciness for you. The naan bread had a slight sweetness to it, and the rice was shiny and delicious, cooked freshly. The taste suited me well, and I'm thinking of coming back for a weekday lunch next time. Thank you for the meal.

I couldn't get into the restaurant I wanted to go to for lunch because it was crowded, so I ended up at this place where you order using a touch panel. The curry here comes in different levels of spiciness, but you can't adjust it. I ordered a cheese naan set with two types of curry that I had never heard of before. The cheese naan on its own was not that great, but when dipped in the curry, it was okay. Both curries turned out to be spicier than I expected, making me sweat a lot! However, the flavor was a bit weak, with the heat coming mostly from the chili itself. Lately, there are Indian and Nepalese restaurants everywhere, so in comparison, the value for money here might be slightly lacking.

As the reviews say, this Indian restaurant feels like a family restaurant with minimal staff. You don't choose the spiciness level for the curry, it's already determined. There are many types of curry like yogurt curry, mustard curry, tomato butter chicken, and shrimp lemon. The dosa was my main reason for coming, but they didn't have it. The all-you-can-eat option for 2400 yen that was mentioned doesn't exist, as they have reduced their menu due to price increases. If you want biryani, they have a good size for 550 yen. They use authentic rice and serve it quickly. It's a great place for affordable, quick, and delicious Indian food, and it's easy for a solo female diner to enjoy. My friend and I ate until we were full and it cost us 5800 yen.

Having a long lunchtime is great. You can relax, enjoy a delicious lassi, and have a blissful moment. The curry is also delicious, and the set with three different flavors allows you to enjoy the taste until the end without getting tired of it. It's recommended for dining alone as well.

I wanted to go to a café, but all the places in Namba were crowded on the weekend, so I decided to try an Indian restaurant that caught my eye. I was in the mood for naan bread, so I ordered a cheese naan set for 1300 yen with two curry choices - butter chicken and creamy shrimp. The food was ordered using a tablet, and the place was surprisingly empty and comfortable for a snack time. The curry plates arrived quickly, but the appearance wasn't very appealing. The creamy shrimp curry lacked the richness of cashew nuts and had a stew-like texture. The butter chicken had a hint of ketchup flavor and lacked creaminess. The naan bread was cheesy and easy to chew, while the rice was sticky Japanese rice. Overall, it was a Japanese-style Indian curry experience with a few shortcomings. The restaurant was offering a promotion for a free extra naan until mid-April, but I was already too full to take advantage of it.

There is a curry restaurant located at the end of the first floor of Namba CITY main building. Orders are placed using a tablet, and all the staff are foreigners. The portions are generous and the taste is good. You can enjoy a great deal on lunch menu on weekdays, which also comes with lassi.

I have never worked for money. If your choice is based on sales, what will happen if the movie doesn't do well? There will be nothing left. I watched the movie "Top Gun: Maverick" starring Tom Cruise. I couldn't help but question the actions of Pete and others, as they invade a military facility without a declaration of war based on a single word from a rogue nation. It may be the nature of the military, but I couldn't enjoy it wholeheartedly. Today, I visited several shops I had in mind, but all ended up being unsuccessful. With time running out, I decided to try "Spice Kingdam Namba CITY store," which seemed to have available seats. I ordered the Earl Keema Curry Set [Naan + Rice] for 990 yen using the tablet device on the table. The menu had changed since my last visit. The set came with turmeric rice and white rice. The naan was round and had a considerable kick to it. With two servings of rice, it was quite a filling meal. It was delicious. Thank you for the meal. I walked the path with diligence and ended without regret.

I went shopping in Namba and felt like having curry for lunch. I found a place still serving lunch until 2:30 PM. I ordered the A lunch set for 990 yen, which included three types of Indian curry that change weekly - Butter Chicken Curry, Street Dahl Curry, and Goan Egg Curry. It also came with a large size naan, a small size turmeric rice, papad, a small size salad, and a small size lassi. I've been really into this type of curry lately. The mild Butter Chicken Curry goes really well with the naan. The Street Dahl Curry is medium spicy and packed with spices. It tastes great poured over the rice. I really liked the slightly sweet carrot dressing on the salad. And the lassi at the end was a perfect way to cool down after finishing the meal. It was a very satisfying lunch. Thank you for the meal!

Located directly below Nankai Electric Railway Namba Station, not far from Namba Station on various lines. This Indian restaurant is located on the first floor of the main building of "Namba CITY," a large commercial facility operated by Nankai. I visited right after the opening at 11 o'clock. On my way to the Asahiya Bookstore on the second basement floor of "Namba CITY," I found this restaurant. I usually went to this bookstore through the basement, but this time I found this restaurant when I tried to take the escalator down from the first floor. As a curry enthusiast, I was intrigued by the word "Meals" when I saw the menu outside the restaurant. So, I decided to have an early lunch and put the bookstore on hold. The interior of the restaurant is mostly table seats, with over 50 seats. It is quite spacious and arranged like a family restaurant. The staff are Indian (I think) and the BGM is Hindi pop music, so it's not like a fast-food restaurant. The main menu items are various sets, and what's unique is that they are categorized as "North Indian" and "South Indian." "North Indian" includes items made from wheat such as naan, while "South Indian" can be roughly described as rice-based dishes. I already know what I want to order. I decided to go with the "Meals Set" (1,210 yen), which includes a choice of three South Indian curries, turmeric rice, basmati rice, coconut chutney, and papad. I selected "Shrimp Lemon Curry," "Kerala Chicken Curry," and "Cardamom Pork Curry" and sent the order. The restaurant uses a tablet for ordering, which is becoming more common, but I still find it a bit challenging to get used to. While waiting for the food, I thought about the name "Spice Kingdom." Kingdom... Spice Kingdom? I searched on my smartphone and found out that Spice Kingdom, an Indian curry restaurant chain based in Ehime Prefecture and expanding in the Chugoku and Kansai regions, opened this upscale brand in Namba in October last year (2021). The Meals on a round plate arrived without much wait. There were three curries on the back side of the round plate, turmeric rice in the middle, basmati rice in a bowl, coconut chutney in a small dish, and papad on the side. Although there was no specific explanation for each curry, the left one was Cardamom Pork, the middle one was Shrimp Lemon, and the right one was Kerala Chicken. The spicy aroma stimulates the nostrils. When I tried each one, the Cardamom Pork had a tingling sensation and a unique cardamom flavor, as the name suggests. The Shrimp Lemon had a refreshing taste not typical of curry, and the firm texture of the shrimp was enjoyable. The Kerala Chicken was a classic chicken curry. It's nice that all of them were packed with ingredients. The turmeric rice had a moderate stickiness, while the basmati rice had an excellent fluffy texture, which is perfect for Indian curry. After enjoying each flavor, mixing the curries and chutney randomly and eating them created a complex and delicious taste. Crushing the whole spices and chewing them brought out a unique flavor in the mouth, which was also enjoyable. Spice Kingdom is known for offering casual Indian curry, but this place seems a bit more authentic. I'm likely to come back for more.

This is an Indian restaurant that opened last year on the first floor of Namba CITY Main Building. I used it for lunch before work when I arrived in Osaka on a business trip. There are four categories of lunch specials: weekly specials, North Indian lunch, South Indian lunch, and Indian curry set, each with multiple menu options. It can be overwhelming with so many choices, but the best value seems to be the "weekly special lunch" (tax included 990 yen) which includes a drink for under 1,000 yen. There are four types of "weekly special lunch," and I chose the B lunch which includes Basmati rice. The three types of weekly Indian curry, Basmati rice, Turmeric rice, Coconut chutney, Papad, Salad, and a drink (lassi or iced masala chai) are included in this set. The three types of weekly Indian curry were "Shrimp Creamy," "Mirijuli Palak," and "Pepper Keema." The curries were all on the mild side, and the restaurant had a bright and clean atmosphere, giving off a family restaurant-like impression. The entrance to the restaurant, surrounded by an overwhelming menu, also gives off that kind of vibe.

A chain of Indian curry restaurants with over 30 locations in the Chugoku-Shikoku and Kansai regions. It has been open for about 5 months. The interior is very clean and well-maintained. The staff, all of whom appear to be of Indian descent, were friendly. Orders are placed using touch panels, and payment can be made with cash, card, or IC. The restaurant accepts Minapita card points. We visited on a Saturday at 6 pm with 2 people. There are around 40 seats, which are well-spaced out, providing a sense of privacy. We ordered a Biryani set, a Spicy set, Spiced Fried Chicken, Sweet Raita, and the dessert of the day, totaling 4,015 yen. The variety of options made it difficult to choose, and the ordering process took some time. The desserts were not explained in detail, possibly due to language barriers or a preference for minimal contact. Drinks were served promptly, and our food arrived within 7 minutes. The Biryani was flavorful but not too spicy, and the Basmati rice was fluffy. The Spicy set was quite hot, similar to level 3 spiciness at Coco Ichibanya, offering a good mix of dishes. Despite the overly sweet dessert, it helped balance out the spiciness for my companion. Overall, we enjoyed the meal and would consider returning for lunch or takeout.

I chose the weekly lunch option B, which includes half turmeric rice and half basmati rice. This week's curry choices were butter chicken, daal, and Goan prawn. The daal curry was labeled as medium spicy, but it tasted a bit bland so I added some red powder from the condiments on the table. It improved slightly, but still lacked flavor. The Goan prawn curry had only one prawn despite the picture showing more. The butter chicken was also mediocre. The turmeric rice was too watery, and the basmati rice was not great either. I used to think this level of quality was normal, but after trying other curry places with higher standards, I was surprised. The touchscreen order system may be convenient for adding extra items at some restaurants, but here, it just felt unnecessary and cumbersome. The weekly lunch option B costs 990 yen (including tax).

A new Indian curry restaurant seems to have opened in Namba City, so I decided to check it out. The interior of the restaurant is very clean, and they are following social distancing guidelines. The menu is electronic, which can be a bit of a hassle, although paper menus are also available. Ordering is done by selecting items on a touch screen. They offer a variety of lunch sets, which change slightly, making it a bit troublesome. As for the curry, the menu is enjoyable, but the flavors lack depth and the spiciness is mild. I would like to give it another try at a different time.

In the world of theater, sometimes the meaning of lines in a play intensifies as the scene progresses, while other times it does not. Creating an "explosive expression" that exceeds one's imagination is incredibly important, as the spontaneity that arises on set is what makes people laugh or feel moved. The drama "Komi Can't Communicate" not only focuses on the heroine Komi but also on young people who struggle to communicate well. Despite their insecurities, Tonino supports them straightforwardly without denying them, which is heartwarming. Today, I visited "Spice Kingdom" on the 1st floor of Namba CITY Main Building, which opened on October 14, 2021. This place used to be the location of the omelette rice restaurant "Rakel." According to official information, they offer authentic spice curry made with fragrant freshly ground spices. They have various spice dishes such as North Indian curry, South Indian curry, and dosa. The weekly limited lunch A [Tomato Butter Chicken + Sambal + Alu Keema] costs 990 yen and includes papad, mini salad, rice, and a drink (lassi). The weekly curry options are listed, offering various flavors. Although having three options is luxurious, it can be a bit hectic to eat them all. "Alu" means potatoes. Unlike curries made with chunks of meat, the minced meat (keema) and potatoes in this curry are exquisite. Sambal is a curry made with beans and vegetables. Tomato Butter Chicken is a classic and delicious choice. It was a delightful meal. Having mini rice included is always a plus, allowing you to fully enjoy the curry until the end. Keep improving on your journey, and you will have no regrets in the end.

I visited the newly opened restaurant "Spice Kingdom" located at the back of the area where many eateries are gathered on the south side of Namba CITY main building. The restaurant opened on October 14th and I visited shortly after. Being located in CITY, the restaurant is quite beautiful and offers a wide variety of menu items. They have basic North Indian dishes as well as South Indian dishes, making it a great place for those who want to try different types of curry and spice dishes. Orders are placed using a touch panel, which is quite modern. This time, I ordered the recommended "Weekly Special Lunch A Set for 990 yen (tax included)". The set includes three types of curry that change weekly, Naan (large size), Turmeric Rice (small size), Papad, Salad (small size), and a drink (lassi or iced masala chai). On this day, the three curries were "Tomato Butter Chicken Curry", "Sambar", and "Alki Ma Curry". Although I couldn't get a refill on the Naan, the rice helped me enjoy all three curries until the end. There are many other attractive menu items available, making it a fun and enjoyable restaurant. Thank you for the meal!

Butter chicken curry was not too spicy, so even those who are not good with spiciness can enjoy it! The naan was also very delicious and amazing!!

Dosha seems to be popular. It was sold out on this day. It is located on the 1st floor of Namba CITY. The staff at the restaurant seem to be Indian. You can enjoy authentic spicy curry.

There were two types of curry available, and they were both reasonably priced, making it a good deal. The naan was large, and the curry had a traditional Indian flavor. It was a nice change from the usual spicy curries that have been popular lately.

I can eat both naan and rice, and there are three types of curry to choose from, so I never get bored. I tried papad for the first time and I'm hooked.

Biryani set. The crispy texture of the papad is excellent. Nothing else noteworthy.
