About this restaurant

Sushi Roku combines the finest, freshest fish from pristine waters around the globe with the kind of artistry that can only be provided by a mature sushi chef ensuring superlative traditional sushi, together with a splash of California innovation. Sushi Roku is a pioneer of contemporary sushi, incorporating diverse, non-traditional ingredients from Latin America (e.g. jalapeños) and Europe (e.g. olive oil) into its edible works of art. This unique culinary experience that bridges past and present is the result of an eagerness to embrace new ideas and a profound respect for tradition. Sushi Roku’s bold and diverse menu also offers an array of hot and cold specialty appetizers and an extensive selection of exotic entrées. Delivery Available through ChowNow.



RobataBar, located behind Sushi Roku features robatayaki style skewers, tapas style sashimi dishes, and sushi.

    We have our teacher get togethers at Sushi Roku periodically and the assistant GM Grant Schrodetzki took good care of us. We also had desserts for the first time and their chocolate fondant with ice cream was amazing as well as the flaming cheesecake surrounded by cotton candy. A fabulous show! In addition to their good sushi

    We enjoyed the experience and food. We dined with a party of 4, enjoyed a few appetizers of gyoza, miso soup, and lamp skewers. Sushi to follow that was very good. We also enjoyed the cheesecake dessert that was fun and artistic as it was surrounded with cotton candy that they lighted on fire.

    Food was very mediocre especially the chefs choice sushi plate. The cocktails were no good and came out super late—I was already done with my food and dessert was on the way. The only good thing was that the server was very friendly and seemed to enjoy her job, she definitely did her best to take care of us. But I would not go back here due to the poor food quality.

    Touristy spot. Fish was ok but overpriced. Uni was market price and it ended up being $38 for 2 small pieces of nigiri.
