    Met up with some work friends for drinks and appetizers. Hadn’t seen them for a while and the music was so loud it was hard to hear each other unless we shouted or waited for songs to end. Overall the place is really nice, a couple of birthdays were being celebrated. Would definitely go back but hopefully the music does get turned down a bit. We went on a Sunday evening and I figured it would be less busy and a quieter atmosphere. Food was good, I only had one drink which was okay, would have expected a bit more for the $20. Overall nice place, thinking of going to their Bellflower location to see if there is any difference . Customer service was great!!

    Service was excellent and food was delicious. It seems a bit pricey for what it is. There is a lovely ambiance. It is, you can tell, trying to be an upscale place, but in my opinion, it misses the mark. Twice now, when I have made a reservation, I was asked if it was a special occasion. The first time, I indicated Anniversary, and the second time, it was my husband's birthday. There was no acknowledgment either time, probably because the hostess that checked us in didn't look at the reservation details. Details like this would make it more of the upscale place it is trying to be.

    Overall great dinner place with great service. We ordered a variety of items: pork belly, sliders, salad, shrimp and grits, steak and veggies. The food was a 9/10 and their portions are spot on. We were a table of four and enjoyed the live music. Drinks and desert were amazing!

    The restaurant is attractive and the bar selections are very good. The menu leans heavily on strong spices and chili focused flavors, however the food was above average. The bread basket was excellent with the honey butter. The ribs were also very good. Our short rib sliders were a bit salty. Our server Jose was unattentive and got a few of our orders wrong. It will be worth trying again with the hopes that another server gets it right.

    This was a first time experience and it was fantastic. Went for a date night and the mood was great. Ordered the Rokka burger and the Lava burger with the Blackberry smash & blood orange margarita to compliment with dinner. There was a live performance of spanish-style guitar playing. Good vibes here and a neat environment to enjoy to end the work week.

    We really liked this restaurant. Decor, food and drinks were excellent. The A/C didn't seem to be working. It was uncomfortably hot in the dining area. Mentioned this to the server and they indicated that they would check the AC but never heard back nor got any relief from the heat. My guest, wife and I were sweating.

    Wonderful dining exp. Celebrated my birthday at Rokka. It was our 1st visit and what a great decision. My party of 10 loved everything about the night! Service: Service was top notch! Karen took care of our table of 10 beautifully. She was very attentive (frequently checked on us), very friendly, and always had a smile, which I always appreciate! Hopefully you get to sit in her section too. Thanks again Karen your service was 10/10! I hope Rokka knows what a gem you are! Food: the menu has good dinner options. It's definitely a bit pricey but worth the exp. Drinks: Drinks are yummy and they have great options. Ambiance: The best part was the live entertainment! CJ the saxophone musician really topped it off. The live entertainment was a sweet surprise and I am so glad he was there. His music is current and she played a great selection - you can't help but sing along. My party of 10 loved everything about the night! Rokka is a romantic and fun vibe all in one. p.s. The steak pic I added is the Tomahawk Steak.

    Jose was our server and he didn’t disappoint. Drinks and food came out at decent times (didn’t wait very long for them to come out) and he was always checking on us. The tomahawk steak was great! Shareable size and the sides were delicious. Highly recommend.

    The sense of awareness made it a great experience. The greeters were great and sat us early, the waiter was attentive and listened to detail. He over heard it was my partners birthday when paying and brought him a birthday desert. The bagel whiskey was delicious as well as the food and cheesecake we had.

    We like Rokka. Folks are always friendly and helpful. This trip though it was a little slow. Only one waitress for the whole place. We actually had to call a manager over to get our drinks that were sitting on the bar. Not the waitresses fault, just not what we are accustomed to.

    I would definitely recommend Rokka for an upscale date night dinner and drinks. Menu is a little pricey but the food was very yummy. Downside was service was slow, server DID warn us the food was running about 45 mins. I appreciated the heads. Everyone at the table was served except me. I think my meal was totally overlooked. I got mine about 15 minutes later. It was no problem. The manager came over and was so apologetic about the late meal. He comped a dessert for our party of 5. A delicious cheesecake. Then a 2nd one came out to us. Manager again came over and thanked us for visiting the restaurant. Everyone was so nice.

    Amazing! This is my second time at Rokka and they’ve delivered a memorable experience again. Our server was Marie and she didn’t disappoint with the recommendations. Had the best bone marrow experience ever! So tasty, so delicious, and a bit spicy. Highly recommend! The filet mignon was so good and I like that the sides are optional so you don’t feel the need to order a ton of sides and have left overs (unless that’s your thing). But the highlight of the night was the Pornstar and the Hot Model (get your head out of the gutter those are the names of the drinks). Super Yummy and not overpowering with alcohol. So sweet, juicy and delicious and strong enough to order a few. But really the rated-PG 13 highlight of the night was the French onion soup. Get it! You won’t regret it paired with the steak. The only thing that I would like to see on the menu is a raspberry tart or panne cotta. That would be the only thing missing. Their desserts are yummy but I would love a fruit option.

    The atmosphere seemed nice the moment we walked in. It is very spacious and well decorated. The food was good, as were the drinks. They had a good variety of choices of whiskeys and tequila. We were disappointed that the bar was unable to provide any specialty shots that we asked for. Overall, it was a pretty good experience.
