Really good Japanese food. They give you miso soup when you sit down not a lot of Japanese restaurants do that, I also really liked the food there it was really good. Great server and great experience. Would recommend.
Really good sushi and sashimi here. The sashimi is fresh, tender, and beautiful color. The rice is to the right degree of stickiness and fullness. Everything is combined perfectly. We sat outside on the street and it was so fresh and nice. We chatted for a long time. The experience is superb.
Excellent sushi, excellent value for money. Sometimes that can be code for "good for the money but in this case, it's really, " just great sushi at a great price." I especially like the rolls. I've had better agedashi tofu and the tempura I think is ok, but not spectacular. The sashimi, nigiri, and creative rolls are really good. When you're in the mood for no frills sushi, this is the place to come or order in from.
We ordered takeout before, and the bentos were pretty good. So, we decided to give dine in a try.It was pretty busy for dinner even on weekdays.Today’s special was good, but the sushi combo was definitely below the bar— rice was not thoroughly cooked, and it was too packed to have any air in between. Unfortunately, their bento was more impressive than their sushi.
Ordered the fried oyster appetizer, oysters were juicy and came with a side of tonkatsu sauce. We sat outside and the waitresses were very attentive. The green tea was delicious, perfect flavor. Also ordered the DBZ roll, soft shell crab, avocado, and unagi, also very well done. The beef sukiyaki was well done, comes with miso soup, salad, and rice. The rest of us had bento boxes, some bento options have an additional fee as listed on the menu. Overall delicious and would go again!
Kakaroto has easily become my favorite sushi restaurant in the bay area (after Daigo). Went for a date night with my boyfriend recently and the food and service were both top notch. The staff is always so incredibly friendly and attentive. The food during our last visit was amazing!! I had a dinner box that came with sashimi and my boyfriend had a bento box. I have to say that the fish in my dish was so fresh and absolutely delicious. Our bill for 2 people with dinner, an appetizer, miso soup, salad and 2 drinks only came out to less than $60 which is a steal in the bay area. This will definitely be our go-to sushi place when we're craving some fresh sashimi and rolls.
Visited with my friends for Friday dinner. There was a wait time of 15 minutes.The starters : the croquettes and the veggie dumplings were tasty!The vegetarian sushi combo was also well presented and yummy.Sukiyaki broth was a bit too sweet.
What an awesome sushi spot! I do like its location away from the main Downtown street in MTV. But more importantly the food is superb. Ordered the Omakase special and the fish was as fresh as you could get. Most restaurants that offer an Omakase will give you a throw away cheap roll like Your standard CA roll. Not these folks. The Omakase comes with their most expensive roll and it perfectly compliments the fish presented. I loved this place so much that I went again a few days later and the quality was the same as before. Did I mention all the Dragonball Z references in their rolls and memorabilia in their establishment? Great place to go. Enough said.
Lunch special bento box is a great deal! $15.95 for 3 items- great quality and includes tea service. Love the Tonkatsu and tempura
I had a solid business lunch with my management team here. We were a group of 8, and everyone enjoyed the atmosphere, food, and service. I had the chirashi, which was really good. The fish was fresh and the sushi rice had good flavor. The staff attended to us with great skill. I wouldn't hesitate to return.
