We were seated promptly and our orders were taken aa soon as we put our menus down. Our appetizer- satay- came out quickly and was good. So far so good.Two of four entrees came out. It took another five minutes for the rest of the meals to arrive.The catfish was completely overcooked. The eggplant was bland. The prawns in clay pot were about 5 prawns in glass noodles that were mostly stuck in a blob. Some celery and onions completed a non-descript entree. The peanut sauce over chicken is exactly that- a pile of chicken with sauce. The tango mango was a sweet concoction that its patron enjoyed. We were pleased by the option for brown rice. The place is clean and conveniently located( if you can find parking).I would look for something else despite the high rating.

I ordered take out of their version of vegetable tempura. Normally, in the place itself, the fare was pretty decent; they said they changed the oil every couple of days (crucial). Also crucial was the amount of breading used and the time spent in the fryer.This time when I got home, it looked like the cook had forgotten that he had food in the fryer as it was way overfried with small vegetables and huge amounts of breading. It was awful. Plus I had spent extra for more vegies which they reluctantly added.I took it back and complained, so they gave me a refund, which was nice of them. Still, the place has the best fried calamari around in my opinion, which they have not as yet over-fried. It's worth a try.

The term "wonderful," sells this restaurant short !! We were dining about 7:2m on a Friday night. I expected slow waiter service; not the case!! We waited all of 5 minutes for tables to be cleared to be able to seat us.My VERY favorite dish is definitely the crispy calamari! My husband and I counted the pieces to be sure it was divided equally so we didn't have to resort to stabbing each other with forks to get the last piece! The wide rice noodle see-ew with chicken was delicious, as was the BBQ pork,and stir fry veggies with tofu ! All dishes were wonderful, as always! Service was excellent, in spite of the fact that is was a busy Friday night, and servers had to deal with many take-out orders, also!I highly recommend Ka.ra.kade!
