Kaka All-You-Can-Eat Sushi

 

I haven't been to an all-you-can-eat sushi place in while, but have heard good things about Kaka so we decided to head there for lunch on a whim last weekend.

When you first walk in, the decor is quite upscale that you wouldn't think they are an AYCE sushi place. Not sure if it was the manager that greeted us at the door but she was great, explained what they offered and made sure we were comfortable. We were also lucky that we got a table because there were a lot of reserved tables! Our seats were cushioned which was nice, definitely adds to the experience and something you don't see often.
 


Almost all the tables were reserved
Service seemed quite seamless in that you order off a touch screen tablet with the number of pieces you want.  Every order is ONE piece except the sushi rolls which are 3 pieces per order, so keep that in mind.  There was no mix up of orders and they came out relatively quickly.

Now, onto the food.  They have quite a bit of unique items and the sashimi that we ordered were fresh and decent sized slices.  Usually I would order mainly sashimi and a few rolls but we also ordered a number of cooked dishes; some were ok while others were done pretty well.  The cumin lamb skewers were good and is not something you see at Japanese AYCE, probably offered due to the huge Chinese population here.  Loved the grilled eggplant, topped with a sesame paste/butter sauce - I think this is probably why it was so good.  Only recommendation was that it was a whole eggplant and sliced opened lengthwise so a bit hard to eat when you just have chopsticks and no knife and fork.



Desserts were okay with a number of unique ones too.  Had a lavendar chocolate pudding which does have a lavendar taste (nice) and a green tea creme brulee which was average.  Actually, as I write this I realized we didn't get the earl grey tea ganache square that I ordered!  I think we had decided to leave and called for the bill before it arrived.

At lunch on weekends they offer the same all-you-can-eat menu as their dinner for $26.99 which is quite standard for AYCE with sashimi these days.  Lunch on weekdays they serve an a la carte menu with bento boxes.  (And just a side note: their fb page has an offer requesting you share your "photos on Instagram using the hashtag ‪#‎kakaallyoucaneat‬ for a chance to win a free dinner for 2 at the end of the month.")
