Honestly this is one of my favorite sushi places to go to! It is inexpensive for sushi, and the fish quality is always good! The location and outside look is pretty outdated but the food is fire The utensils and water is self serve but the workers were pretty nice. Nothing over the top but for the price, this place is unbeatable! read more

Came to try this restaurant because the ratings were high & the menu sounded good.. but in reality, the food was very disappointing We got the spicy garlic ramen, had no flavor and was not spicy even after adding more spice & slightly cold Mixed tempura had chicken nugget like coating & didn't taste fully cooked & I'm usually not too picky about sushi but I didn't feel like finishing my dish.. read more

Pretty solid sushi spot in Fremont, CA. They literally have tons of rolls to choose from, all the ones I had, especially the Bubbly Roll were awesome! Note, it's a carry-out place only so if you're looking for a good DoorDash to an office or your hotel, this is the place to go to. read more

I've eaten inside the restaurant as well as placed takeout order via delivery service and enjoyed the food both times. In person the service is quick and attentive. The chicken bento lunch was delicious and well cooked. The rainbow roll was also pleasant. read more

Came here with my friend because we were craving sushi, and we weren't disappointed! We ordered three rolls: Splash Brothers, Orange Blossom, and the Boojee Roll. The Boojee Roll, with deep-fried lobster and real crab meat, was our favorite--it was incredible. Their mixed vegetable tempura was extremely crispy. Even though we didn't eat it right away, it didn't get soggy or lose its crunch. We also opted for the regular salted edamame instead of garlic, which was perfect. The seaweed salad was wonderfully refreshing and had a nice crisp, cold texture. Finally, we had the spicy black garlic ramen with pork belly. We've had it before, and this time it was a bit spicier than usual, but still full of flavor and deeply satisfying. Overall, everything was tasty, flavorful, and extremely enjoyable. read more

I decided to try this sushi because it's close to my home and the reviews were good. The sushi exceeded my expectations, and it was very worth the price. Super fresh and the fish was tender and didn't look dull. The waiters were attentive and welcoming and overall, it was a nice ambience. read more

I came on a Wednesday was the only customer here. I thought the inside looked really elegant and nice. But unfortunately the food didn't match the ambience.. I came here bc I saw an influencer rave about this place but lesson learned not to trust everything social media says Fish didn't taste very fresh and there was hair in our food, I'm not sure if it was remade or they just took the hair out and gave it right back to us because it was super quick. I lost my appetite.. didnt even get a my bad just a "ok" idk if it's just a one off, but probably won't be coming back :( read more

First time in a long time that a 4+ star rating of a business on Yelp has steered me the wrong direction. I was excited to give Kakuna Sushi a try but it was a let down. The menu looks a bit different than what people have posted from last year; less items shown now. Maybe its their lunch menu vs the dinner menu? There's another menu for AYCE (All You Can Eat) with two pricings; kids based off of height and adults. Ordered three rolls under the Signature Rolls (Raw) section: * Citrus - Swimming in citrus liquid, pieces were inconsistent with rice/fish ratio. There was some sort of pickled radish in the middle? * Fireball - Supposed to have spicy tuna but was non existent. The ebi tempura in the middle was room temp which meant its been sitting out for a while hence the batter was soggy * Sunshine - This roll was decent but again, swimming in some sort of house sauce, and while the fried garlic bits on top were nice, they also add chopped pickled radish/daikon? Kids had a Katsu Chicken Bento Box and a Chicken Terriyaki Bento box. Katsu was good, we asked for no sesame since my daughter is allergic but yet there was a dash of furikake/sesame ontop of her rice when the order came out. The Chicken Terriyaki was chewy and a little sour. I was hoping they would've grilled it but it was pale looking with a light brown terriyaki sauce. Miso soup was extremely salty. Didn't even drink it...even heard another customer ask the server "is the miso soup supposed to be this salty?" Also, the plastic cups they give you for water looked like the old ones I used to get at the local pizza parlor or Chucky Cheese. Dark red and brownish/yellow. In the end, I spent $95 for some sushi that was meh. Don't think we'll be coming back. read more

This place is still my go-to sushi spot! I always recommend whenever friends and family want a spot. They've also expanded to fit more people too! No longer a hole in the wall but a staple. The service is great and everyone is friendly. My water cup is always full. The food itself is amazing and I always leave so satisfied. The sushi is fresh. I've pretty much tried the entire menu and I still come back. My favorites for the table is the Kakuna roll and the Japanese nachos. The deluxe chirashi bowl here is the best of every place I've tried. You get a little bit of everything and I mean EVERYTHING including uni & unagi. For the price you pay, it's a steal! I always order the deluxe chirashi when I'm here. read more

I have always gone to the Milpitas location due to the small indoor dining space at the Fremont location. I went on 2/24 and there is way more space! I'm not sure when they extended it, but I only live 15 minutes away so I'll be coming here more often. Service was great and the food was amazing per usual! It's really clean and aesthetic looking more than the Milpitas location. read more

We were craving AYCE (all you can eat) sushi. Yelp found me this place in Fremont. I called and was told they have it at $47 per person. We went there and upon entering, I asked the lady behind the cashier where can we sit and she pointed to the sitting area. There was only one menu on each table. There were 3 of us so I had to go collect menus from other tables. The waiter came by with 3 glasses of water and asked if we were ready to order? The plastic cups are in different colors, one had a cracked and the other one had a chipped. The menu didn't have AYCE sushi on there so we inquired about it further. The waitress came back with a paper like check list with no explanation. We decided this was definitely not where we want to have AYCE sushi. So 2 of us ordered bento boxes with add ons. We ordered 2 spicy tuna, we got 1. We ordered 1 spicy salmon roll, we got none. We ordered 1 California roll, we got 2. We ordered 1shrimp tempura, we got 2. We ordered 1 vegetable tempura, we got none. We also got 2 salmon sashimi that were not ordered. We figured they didn't know what they are doing since our order is all messed up anyway and proceeded to eating. Half way through our meal with one salmon sashimi already gone. The waitress came over and proceeded to take away our other sashimi to give to another table. Is been sitting on our all that time. I told her no and that we will pay for it. Found out after we got home that we were charged for 2 spicy tuna when we only received one. Anyway, this place is scary. Take your money and go elsewhere. read more

The best sushi I could eat close to home. I have been ordering their specialty rolls, like Lion King rolls, for two years via DoorDash delivery. I decided to sit down by myself in their renovated restaurant. It was more spacious since they took over part of the Kung Fu school next door. I was seated right away and offered water with complimentary refill. I ordered their Cherry Blossom Roll and The Bay (less spicy). The Cherry Blossom Roll had fresh raw tuna and salmon, and avocado filling, topped with tobiko, which was a healthier option to get and light to digest. The Bay was the opposite, and it took longer to arrive. It was drenched in melted mozzarella cheese and sriracha mayo covering the whole roll. It took me a while to pick up a roll because it was melted and flattened, hence it's like driving through the heavy fog in SF. Not much scallops in here. That's why it's called The Bay lol. I shouldn't order this one because it was too heavy for me to finish, and it wasn't the same as pictured on their menu. Overall, I enjoyed the raw signature rolls and the Lion King. Maybe I'll try the nigiri next time for a treat. Service was good and fairly priced. read more

Came here on a Sunday at noon. Lots of tables opened, not a good sign. The place is not as fancy as I expected . We ordered different things. Rolls were drown in sauces. Lion king roll was the worse I've ever tasted. Very little salmon which I can't taste and the only thing I can taste is Mayo. Deluxe chirashi is sooo bad. $35 for very bad fish that were not fresh at all. I didn't want to eat it to prevent getting food poisoning. It was that bad. Chicken Udon soup was actually not bad. Service was ok. Definitely won't be coming back. read more

Kakuna Sushi - Ramen Near Me - Fremont, California

Kahuna Sushi is located in a small strip shopping center. They have a large selection of various types of sushi. There's also an option for AYCE sushi that offers regular vs premium. They also have ramen, udon, and bento options. Their ramen broth is very tasty. The broth is well flavored for the ramen type you select. The portion is generous. You cannot go wrong ordering ramen or udon. The bento was ok. There's an up charge for certain selections like BBQ ribs. The service was quick, but the sushi took too long to arrive. We got our ramen and bento before the sushi. We almost finished our meals before the sushi arrived. That being said, the food was good here at Kahuna Sushi. Hopefully, the delay in preparing the sushi was an anomaly. I would recommend giving Kahuna Sushi a try. read more

Service: First, the staff were generally helpful and nice. The Food: You can just see the raw fish looking grey and brown. All the baked rolls (Lion King and The Bay) were smothered and drowned in mayo. It was just so gross trying to savage the roll that's buried under. The best roll turned out to be Godzilla which is a cooked roll. Kakuna was so-so but was partly raw and had the browning color. read more

We wanted to support a local sushi shop and try somewhere new and boy did this place disappoint us! The fish was not fresh at all! As you can see in the photo, the tuna looks like it was either seared or marinated but NOPE it was neither! The color was most likely from being old. It even tasted old. The salmon belly was crunchy! I've never had salmon belly with that kind of texture. The two stars are from the fireball roll, which was decent, along with the Pork Belly Bao. Would I try this place again? For sushi, that's a hard NO! read more

Good service, nice interior, not too busy for Friday night dinner, & great rolls and portions! Kakuna roll was the best! Butterface cream cheese was too much for the roll, wouldn't recommend.

I was on the hunt for something tasty for lunch when I stumbled upon this place and decided to give their chicken Katsu a shot. Wow, I was surprised! I thought it would be just mediocre fast food Katsu, but it turned out to be fantastic. It had a nice, light crispy coating, and the chicken inside was super juicy and just right. Plus, the portion size was huge! The only downside was that the floor was sticky, but you couldn't really see it until you stepped in it. I mentioned it to the cashier, and she actually stepped in it too to see what I meant but didn't do anything about it. Since it was a busy area, others were bound to step in it too. read more

I rarely leave reviews unless needed. Me and my boyfriend wanted to try a new spot in Fremont so we came here. First thing first, all of the tables were dirty. They were not busy so it wasn't like they couldn't clean it. We had to swipe the crumbs and stains off our table. We really wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt. I ordered a caterpillar roll and it says it comes with unagi sauce but it barely had any. It was soggy as well like it's been sitting. My boyfriend got an original ramen pork and it tasted bland. The only decent thing that we got was the veggie tempura. That tasted the most fresh out of everything else. While we were eating we unfortunately felt sick. We didn't get checked on once while we were there. There was a deaf couple next to us that was trying to get the waitresses attention for a while that it got to a point to where we had to get up and get help for them. At the end of our dinner we were asked to give a 5 star review for free coconut jelly. That probably explains why the ratings are so high for this place. That didn't seem fair at all. So we paid and left. Please take my advice and just find another spot. I wish this restaurant the best and hope they review their reviews and change for the better. Good luck. read more

My dad was craving sushi so I brought him out to Kakuna Sushi on a Saturday evening. It wasn't too busy and we were seated right away. Plenty of tables and the space was pretty big. We got our order pretty quickly. The rolls were decently priced and tasty. They had a lot of different flavor profiles in the rolls. We also got the Chirashi Deluxe bowl and that was tasty as well! The fish was soft and fresh, and the rice to fish ratio was good (not too much rice!) I'd probably skip on the soft shell crab next time, it tasted a bit over fried. Overall, a great place to go to for decently priced sushi. read more

Generous portions and such delicious and creamy sauce!!! I know I'm coming back!!!!!! 2 friends and I ordered Kakuna Sushi to go. Their wait time was accurate (25 min) and 4 rolls was perfect amount for us 3. The total was about $60 which I feel like is hard to find nowadays! We got the Kakuna Roll, 49er, Grimmer, and Cherry Blossom. The Kakuna roll was definitely my favorite-- the sauce and the lil orange egg things (masago?) was such a good combo. The 49er was a bit too lemon-y (maybe I shouldn't have eaten the entire lemon slice on top) but it was still delicious. Everything else was pretty good, no comments and no complaints! I highly recommend this place! Although I did eat take out, I was told they recently expanded their restaurant to accommodate more dine-ins. I also heard that there are a LOT of take out orders, so make sure to call ahead if possible to avoid a wait. read more

This place had the stickiest floors I've ever stepped foot on. Reminds me of the floor of a movie theater after someone spilled soda. They don't wipe their chairs so half of the chairs at my table had food on them... Despite being a small restaurant with a few tables, they are SO slow. They also forgot to bring one of the 4 items we ordered. Now on the bright side, the kakuna roll I ordered was delicious and looked just like the pictures. read more

I ordered three sushi rolls: Gaijin, Chainsmoker, Mt. Fuji. Since I came during Happy Hour, I was able to get a free maki roll. I chose the saba maki roll. The Gaijin and the Chainsmoker were amazing!!! Never had those combinations before in a sushi roll. The garlic chips, house sauce, and cilantro on the Gaijin roll were just the right flavor combination! So delicious! The combination of the cream cheese, unagi sauce, potato flakes, and bacon on the Chainsmoker were just so yummy! After the first piece, I kept wanting to eat another piece and another piece! It was so heavenly! The Mt Fuji roll was good as well. I had initially thought that the "mixed fish, onion"(per the menu) were inside the roll, but it was actually on the side. I wasn't sure if it was supposed to be eaten together or separate. It wasn't bad. The saba maki roll wasn't bad either. Overall, great portions on the rolls! Pricing isn't outrageous either for the portions given. I was quite surprised at how good the food was considering when I stepped into the restaurant, it felt like a hole-in-the-wall type of place. I would like to go back as the menu is so extensive; there were many other things I would like to try. read more

They have self-help hot tea and water at the counter. Wish they have public restroom! In urgent need of #1, but had to walk to a nearby gas station for restroom. Hence, be sure to use restroom first if plan to dine here. Don't learn the hard way like me. read more
