Bahdah Sushi — Restaurant in Royal Oak

I’ve been ordering takeout from bahdah over the past 3 years and it’s consistently been good with reasonable prices. There is large menu with variety and lots of raw & cooked speciality rolls.

Over the years we had most of the apps and several rolls. Usually order raw rolls (Kawasaki Roll, spicy tuna, and yellowtail/scallion), kake udon, miso soup, and Shrimp Tempura Appetizer. I also ordered the seafood pancakes, kimchi, bulgogi & salmon bentos, crab ragoon, spring rolls, fried & steamed dumplings, Korean Spicy Ramen a few times. Typically spending from $15 - $80; offer a few lunch specials for a great price. They are very good with checking your order to ensure it’s all there and separating hot and cold.

Ordered lunch over the weekend and wasn’t so pleased with the quality/taste (several items were bland or meh). This was rare occasion where I was disappointed by the food (mushy spring rolls with only duck sauce for dipping; crab Rangoon had little flavor other than watery cream cheese; fried rice and side kimchi were incredibly bland; worse yet I had 5 pcs leftover which I intended to eat later in the evening but the fish already...

BahDah opened quietly in March 2020, unfortunately at the beginning of the lockdown. But, in just a mere couple months, they certainly have the attention of sushi devotees in the area. And rightly so, the sushi is fresh, delicate and incredibly delicious. The tempura rolls are perfectly crisp and have the right sauce-to-roll ratio, with Dynamite and Amazing Shrimp deserving special mentions. Do not underestimate their Entree menu with the succulent Pork Katsu and the Chicken Gangjung (Fried chicken dredged in sticky sweet and spicy sauce) on it. Keep an eye out on their daily specials menu which is more than generous in price and quantity. The review would be incomplete without speaking about the family running the restaurant. From the person answering your call for a takeout, to the pleasant notes they leave on your boxes, to taping the Wasabi container so it doesn’t move within the box, it shows you their genuine interest in making sure you have a utterly delightful experience....

Alright, here's the run down of this review. I ordered the Chicken katsu and cheesecake tempura. The chicken katsu comes with some pickles, coleslaw, white rice and the katsu sauce. The katsu sauce is a bit sweet and savory, very pleased by the taste and complementary flavors from this. The rice was very good like you could actually eat this rice on it's own or with the sauce, didn't have it warm so it may be different if you sit down at the restaurant. The coleslaw was actually very pleasant (I don't really like coleslaw) and I ate half of it. I didn't touch the pickles because I never like the flavor or texture from them. The main dish, chicken katsu, was very nice! A good thinness and coating, seasoned nicely, kinda wish there was some crunch with the breading but it was still good. Overall I really enjoyed how the dish was made and most likely I'll order this again. I also ordered cheesecake tempura, very good like a y other...
