| - I think Kaka is absolutely my favourite AYCE sushi restaurant in the GTA region. Having been to so many AYCE sushi places, Kaka stands out to me due to a lot of special items they have on their menu, including the famous torched and pressed sushi that they are known for.
One small thing though, since the place is super popular, it's best for you to reserve your table for the weekend about a week ahead of time, because sometimes they would turn walk-in customers away if they're fully booked for the day. Also, you can only call for reservation between 12-6pm, and not every time they will pick up immediately, so just keep trying.
Environment:
Located at the First Markham Place, Kaka is easily accessible by car and by transit. If you're driving however, the plaza is known to be super popular and it may be difficult to find a parking space. My go to alternative is to park on the side where the old Cineplex used to be at, which is facing the Home Outfitters, and then walk a little bit over. It honestly saves so much time and frustration than to continuously looking for an open parking space.
The interior of the restaurant is clean and modern, really well renovated. I really like the wine bottle wall that you see when you first walk into the restaurant. Seating wise, the biggest spot for large groups are the ones where you sit on a round sofa, though it would suck for the middle person if he/she wants to leave for the bathroom. The round sofa can sit approximately 8 people, any more will be really tight. The smaller tables can be moved around to sit 2/4/6 people, though the tables themselves are quite small, so place your orders accordingly.
Food:
Like many newer AYCE sushi joints, at Kaka you place your order from an iPad. It's good because you get to see how the dish will look like before you order and get a sense of how large the portion is. Here there is no distinction between the lunch and dinner menu, it's the same one which comes out to about $35 per person after tax and tips, if you don't order any additional drinks.
Some of my favourites include:
- Torched/Pressed sushi
- Sashimi (large slices)
- Mango slushie (I usually order a bunch so it's kinda like ordering a drink without having to pay extra)
- Featured soup (had lobster bisque and pumpkin soup, both really good)
- Beef tongue skewer
- Unagi/Eel sushi
Service:
If this is your first time here a server will walk you through the ordering process. I believe you don't need to call the server to come over to confirm your order like at some other AYCE restaurants, you can place your orders yourself and sit tight for the food to come. The food come out relatively quickly, so you'd only have to order after you finish what's on the table.
