Kaga - Willowdale

Love the lunch specials here! Great value for money and good quality. The service is also very friendly. I had a crying baby the whole time and the servers were not annoyed or wanted to rush me to get out so I didn't disturb other guests. They were patient when I tried to calm my baby and order at the same time. I'll be back again to try the other lunch items.

Last night, my friend suggested we try out this restaurant and I am so glad she did. It is a small Japanese restaurant that offers fresh and unique ingredients. They created a special tasting menu for our group of 8. For starters, we were served miso soup, seaweed salad, and fried blowfish (which was delicious). The first course was tuna in ponzu sauce, which was decent. The highlight of the meal was the thick cuts of fresh sashimi, including toro. We especially enjoyed the uni and toro wrapped in seabass, as well as the foie gras sushi (although it was a bit salty that evening). We also tried mackerel and sushi a la carte, as well as BBQ squid, udon with shrimp tempura, and chicken skewers, all of which were very tasty. We hope they continue to maintain the quality and look forward to visiting again soon.

I appreciate a restaurant with a concise menu because it usually means that they excel at what they offer. The lack of descriptions for menu items was a bit confusing, but the sushi, sashimi, and rolls were the standout dishes. I particularly enjoyed the botan ebi and the option to have the shrimp head deep-fried for a crunchy treat resembling soft shell crab. The grilled items were decent but not exceptional. The ramen and donburi were a good value at $10 each. The ice cream selection featured unique flavors like black sesame, along with the standard green tea, vanilla, and mango. However, ice cream was the only dessert option available. Due to the restaurant's small size, reservations are recommended, even for small groups. Overall, I believe this restaurant offers a great alternative to traditional all-you-can-eat dining, especially with their off-menu items highlighted on the chalkboard. The staff are knowledgeable about the food, making for a pleasant dining experience.

The sushi was very fresh and clean. I will definitely go back again!

I love this place! I live within walking distance so I tend to eat there often. When I go for lunch I usually get the salmon teriyaki bento box. For dinner, my family almost always gets the all-you-can-eat because we get to try so many items on the menu. The food is made to order. (You check off what you want from a menu list). We usually get the salmon pizza, tempura shrimp, dragon roll, green chicken curry, seaweed salad... Most times we don't have room for dessert. For takeout I mostly order the AA sushi Platter. They are always ok when I make certain substitutions to it. It's consistently good sushi with very fair prices.
