Affordable and Generous Japanese Cuisine with High Aesthetics!
I heard from my bestie that there’s an incredibly affordable Japanese restaurant in the Bay Area with a super high cost-performance ratio. They’ve already opened three branches, and recently a fourth one in San Leandro. So, I took the chance to visit while I was nearby and experience this generous and aesthetically pleasing food. 📍 Kakuna Sushi We ordered several combos that were not only delicious but also visually stunning. Their sushi rolls are incredibly large portions, and even four of us felt more than satisfied! 😋 ✨Appetizers: Squid Rings, Seaweed Salad, and Pan-Fried Dumplings — a trio of appetizers that arrived while we were waiting for the main dishes. The portions were very generous. ✨Main Courses: Deluxe Sashimi This sashimi combo is incredibly luxurious! It includes 22 thick slices of sashimi, each cut generously, especially the toro, which melts in your mouth with its rich fat content. It also comes with sea urchin, which is sweet and rich. The entire set is $48, and it’s truly worth every penny! ✨Aburi Nigiri A set of six lightly seared nigiri sushi pieces. The fish has a slight charred aroma, perfectly complementing the soft sushi rice. Every bite is filled with happiness. ✨Boujee Roll This roll is not only visually appealing but also has a rich texture. Priced at $20, it’s topped with a whole tempura lobster tail. Combined with the salmon and tuna inside the roll, it offers a fantastic layer of flavors. ✨Gaijin Roll For just $15, you can enjoy a variety of fish. The roll is wrapped in fresh salmon on the outside, with yellowtail and tuna inside. #SanFranciscoBayArea #BayAreaCuisine #BayAreaEats #BayAreaJapaneseFood
