We used to spend days at Kakao and easily spend over $200. However, I see nothing exciting about this menu. For the price of their ribeye steak I will just stop at Dinghy Dock on the way home and get one for $5! Add a load of sides for another $5.
Used to love their specials...cannot imagine what they would charge for a beef Welly. There was a good risotto at times as well. Burgers came with fries. Not happy about the current offerings or prices.
For many years, Kakao was our favorite spot on Orient. Like you, Leona, we loved their specials, but several years ago, they got a new chef, and things haven't been the same since then. I still have hopes that this new chef and new direction will be an improvement.
