Franchise History

Go! Go! Curry originates from Kanazawa-city, Ishikawa prefecture in Japan, where founder Hirokazu Miyamori grew up. In Japan, curry is a well-known comfort food traditionally served with black, thick curry sauce over Koshihikari rice, a premium short grain rice, with very thinly shredded cabbage and Pork Katsu - a crispy, deep fried pork cutlet. Five is pronounced “Go” in Japanese. Go! Go! Curry is named after former baseball player Hideki Matsui jersey number 55. Like Miyamori, Matsui is a native of Kanazawa. The very first Go! Go! Curry opened in Tokyo on May 5, 2004. After having grown to 10 locations throughout Japan, Miyamori opened his first U.S. restaurant in New York City in 2007. Today, there are 70 locations in Japan and seven in the United States (six in New York City and one in Cambridge, MA).
