The service was amazing! Everyone worked together to clean the used plates. The drinks where replaced as soon as empty. Don't be fooled by the most expensive kobe the $40 an ounce was just as good. Very nice place. We were underdressed, but still given outstanding service.

My mom and I had a fantastic dinner at Roka! She was visiting from out of state for her birthday, and we enjoyed an amazing dinner and dessert (included their sorbet, which was on the house). We were well taken care of by staff, and everything was excellent: the food, the wine, the service, the presentation.

This place has the best beef and cod. We love the snake farm tenderloin with bone marrow. It’s our all time favorite and such a good deal. And the miso cod, my friend is obsessed. This place knows its beef and fish. The service is superb. staff and the manager checks on you. Great ambience. Popular among finance people
