The four seasons influence every aspect of Japanese art and culture. At Kakui, we maintain this tradition by creating unique dishes using the freshest local ingredients. As the seasons change so does our menu, taking advantage of the local abundance. In this way, we are creating a contemporary cuisine that combines Japanese traditions with the best the Bay Area has to offer.
Menu
Good service. Sushi is mediocre. It could be so much better. Sushi chefs appear overwhelmed and it impacts the quality of the food.
Wonderful selection of unique sushi rolls, well presented and delicious. The French Kiss roll was especially good.
We really love this place!!!! best sushi in oakland!!
It was great but impossible to have a private conversation because of the way the tables are set
We made reservations and were seated within 5-10 minutes and the restaurant was packed!
Everything was delicious !
The cod was perfectly cooked and delicious. We’ll be going back regularly
I always order my favorites: edamame, warm mushroom salad (once again not available) miso soup and gyoza. I request the order I want them served and request that they not be delivered together, but again that did not happen so I had to push my salad aside and eat the hot items. I can understand if it was a busy evening but there was only one other occupied table. I regularly come to the restaurant and have introduced several people so I wish for two things.....warm mushroom salad and my service request to be honored.
Expect something different than usual stuff
Portion small for the price
Always great fresh fish.
There was only 1 server initially, then there was 2. And, we had to wait a long time to get any service. The food wait yummy, but the service not so much.
Excellent fish, expertly prepared whether you choose sushi, sashimi, or a roll
Great food, great service, easy to reserve table, great experience overall.
We will definitely go back!
Delicious and elegant food, interesting sake menu, and helpful wait staff. We had a party of six. Our order came out well paced, and we all enjoyed the meal.
We love this place absolutely fresh delicious sushi great service great ambience great lighting and prices are reasonable. We are regulars and go nowhere else for sushi in Montclair or Oakland for that matter!
First time and I will definitely go back.
The food is excellent and the service is great.
Our whole family loves Kakui and always orders exactly the same things! So much so that most of the waiters know our order before we reach our seats!
This local neighborhood gem is a cut above the average Japanese / sushi joint. Great selection, great quality, and great service overall. There is always a bit of room for improvement in each area but this has been a reliable place to go for over a decade. The menu selection is larger and better than most. I think my only quibble is the wine and beer list is a little small and could use a couple of additions to round them out.
Service is always great fast and friendly. All the rolls are all delicious and super fresh sushi. The Decour is really nice you feel like a San Francisco sushi spot in Montclair.
