Tips for Eating Curry in Shibuya

Check opening days carefully. Several of the best curry restaurants in Shibuya have unusual closing days — Murghy closes Tuesday and Friday, BLOCK HOUSE is Wednesday-only, and Moonbow is weekdays only. Always confirm before visiting.

Go early or book ahead. The top spots like Haldamon Curry and Spicepost often have queues, especially at lunch. Arrive at opening time to avoid waiting.

Explore beyond Shibuya Station. The best curry spots are spread across Shibuya ward's sub-neighbourhoods — Tomigaya, Uehara, Jingumae, Ebisu, and Daikanyama. Each has its own character and is worth exploring.

Don't overlook the Michelin spots. With a 2-star and a 1-star curry restaurant, Shibuya has some of the most acclaimed curry dining in the world. Vice President eating Pork Vindaloo and MOKUBAZA are unmissable for serious curry lovers.
