Hinoya Curry

Now open at 20 Carlton St., Hinoya Curry is a global restaurant chain that originated in Tokyo, Japan. The new Toronto location marks Hinoya Curry’s first-ever location in Canada.

Winner of the Tokyo Curry Grand Prix, Hinoya Curry specializes in slow-simmered curries that are a mix of sweet and spicy. Following a recipe handed down through the centuries, Hinoya Curry’s dishes keep a consistent base, but invite diners to choose from a variety of toppings, from fried egg to katsu (fried pork cutlet).

Hinoya Curry is open daily from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Those who bring their receipt back between March 23 and March 31 can enjoy one free topping with any curry order as the restaurant celebrates its grand opening.

Went here and it was pretty good, almost equivalent to their offerings and quality in Tokyo.

Think the biggest plus is that it's located at an intersection where you'll find yourself at a lot at random times. It's a quick, filling bite. One thing the Japanese do very well is locating quick and affordable food at transit stations and busy areas and it seems like Hinoya is looking to mimic that here. The A&W method, as you would.

Just wish it was open later than 9.
