Enemmänkin Sushi paikka jossa paljon muuta japanilaista. Loistavaa lampaan kyljystä. Kannattaa maistaa
A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!
I had the 5 course meal curated by the exec chef.
Hands down one of the best meals I've had in a long time and I probably eat out too much. The flavor profiles never disappointed and built on top of each other with each course. It really built the anticipation with every dish they brought out. By the end, my mouth was exploding with flavor, taste buds were in hyperdrive, and my stomach was so very content (In taste, fullness, and satisfaction).
The staff was also very knowledgeable, no matter if it was a waiter or busser.
I would definitely recommend to anyone with pockets deep enough. The bill might be a bit too much to chew and swallow for some but every cent was worth it, in my opinion.

Had dinner here last night with my family. So overwhelmed with the best selections in your menu. I loved the yellow tail sashimi,robata grilled lamb chops ( generous servings), robata grilled salmon with a side teriyaki sauce, crispy Brussels sprouts, your sweet corn with butter and soy, and for dessert, we have a Green Tea shaved ice with red bean, mochi, and fried banana with ice cream on top. Everything's on point. It's my first time here and also my first time to drink sake. I can say it's the best dinner I ever had in a long time. For sure I'll return here to try other delectable dishes in your menu.
Omakase was outstanding. Sashimi was fresh and delicious, the duck was amazing and everything was just perfect. Pricy but worth every penny!
Fabulous atmosphere, great service and wonderful tasting food. What else could you ask for in a Resturant. Would definitely recommend this to anyone who want to take their significant other on a nice romantic date. Also great for a birthday party!!!! Just be sure to bring your wallet!!!!!!!
We love Roka. We take our young son, and just eat I'm the bar lounge area downstairs. It's casual, comfy, classy and the restaurant's bar is their to serve you. We did an early New Year's Eve with this year with our five year old son and he loved the food, balloons, and party masks �. My wife and I love their sushi. Sashimi and Nigiri cuts of fish are fresh and of generous size.
Chilean sea bass was excellent accompanied by Sauvignon blanc. The creviche, shiitake mushrooms and brussel sprouts were very good. Service was great. I highly recommend this restaurant!
2 hours of magic in my mouth. The crab, the beef and especially the corn are dishes that won't disappoint.
It was a amazing experiance, the lounge has a low key club feel, the food cant be described in words it was that good, a very knowledgeable friendly staff, and a japanese whiskey bar that has more japanese whiskeys then you knew existed........thuroughly impressed
Amazing food and staff. Highly recommend. Bring your next date here!
One of my favorite restaurants in SF ! Great food and great service. Can’t wait to go back .
Dericious! Spring '15 menu additions are great -- charred tomatoes & wagyu tartare (w truffle) were 2 of our absolute favorites. Even better is wagyu flat iron ❤️; wagyu filet was awesome as well. This is coming from someone who barely eats red meat btw. Just go! we also all got dessert -- I was stuffed by then but still amazing. Cheesecake was my favorite
The food was as delicious and the presentation was beautiful. I had teriyaki salmon that was so flavorful. The entire staff was welcoming and paid attention to every detail. Cocktails afterward downstairs was a perfect ending to a wonderful evening.
I always love introducing out-of-town friends to Roka Akor when they visit San Francisco because it guarantees that they will be back!
Loved all the rolls. Super fresh and delicious. The cocktails were great but my favorite was their desserts, The Japanese cheese cake was good but the chocolate lava cake was the best I’ve ever had in my life. It was just out of this world.
Trying out this restaurant during the SF restaurant week was a really good idea, especially because $90 for a 4-course meal was a little pricey but a good deal nonetheless.
Our 4-course dinner included -
Course 1 -
• Wagyu beef and kimchi dumplings
• Shrimp tempura and sweet chili aioli
Course 2-
• Hamachi serano roll and wasabi aioli
• Chef selection sashimi
Course 3-
• wagyu sirloin with bone marrow and sweet garlic soy
Course 4-
• Chocolate cake, almond caramel, and vanilla bean ice cream
Wagyu beef dumplings were decent and had mild flavors. The dumpling shell was thin with decent filling portions. The shrimp tempura was good, and the sweet chili aioli sauce really elevated the flavors.
Hamachi serano roll was good, but the wasabi aioli was very overpowering and strong. It was personally my least favorite dish of the night. The sashimi was fresh. The wagyu sirloin was a bit overcooked and dry, but the bone marrow was sweet and delicious. It was a very good portion size for a 4-course meal. The chocolate cake was the highlight of the dinner. The vanilla bean ice cream had a smooth texture, and it paired really well with the hot chocolate cake with caramel filling. Every item of the dessert paired well with every other item of the dessert to provide an exquisite and mouthwatering experience. Overall, it was a great dining experience.
Absolutely amazing experience all around! The food is incredible. Great flavors, seasonings, fresh quality, made / prepared to perfection. The premium blue fin tuna flight is a must! The only disappointment was that they ran out of bluefin o toro but made up for it with extra chu. The snake river wagyu filet is some of the best I've had. We loved the bone marrow and spicy corn. Portions are good for the price. Lots of indoor dining and we were seated right away. There is also a really nice bar downstairs. The open kitchen makes for great entertainment and adds to the atmosphere. All the servers were friendly and attentive! We loved the chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream to finish the meal. Parking was difficult to find there are some garages a few blocks away. Overall, I would highly recommend and can't wait to return!
Wow, wait… yes, wow.. every dish was over the top, definitely coming back, here’s a place to impress… this place is dope and I suggest you dine underground in the bar area.
Has always been one of my favourites in SF, service attentiveness is not what it used to be. Food is great, black cod is a must, blue fin tuna flight is fantastic, and leave room for dessert!
We had a great corporate team building event here, the food was great. Service was attentive and friendly. I highly recommend the chefs sashimi special of 7 types.
Came here for NYE/anniversary dinner. The food was exceptional and I was very happy with the portions of the Omakase menu. The dishes were so tasty and carefully curated. I also enjoyed the cocktails.
The dessert felt like an afterthought and the inside of the cake was overcooked, as if it had been reheated. Our server was not as attentive as I would have hoped. It's also a bit loud in there but some may enjoy the fact that you can watch the chefs in the exposed kitchen.
Overall, this was a nice experience and I would love to return to try more of the menu.
Tuna tataki, salmon & crab maki, wagyu filet w/ broccolini...and a Roka Fashioned. Everything was fantastic.
Roka Akor feels relaxed, warm, and welcoming with a wonderfully elevated modern touch. The mood lighting seems almost perfectly matched with the smells and sounds emanating from the robata grill and the space feels open, yet cozy.
Our service from James was absolutely exquisite. He took the time to help us find a delicious bottle of pinot noir at the start of our meal and we did not once feel rushed to make our decision. The wine selection is approachable but extremely memorable, with reds that pair well with seafood and red meats alike and have flavor profiles pungent enough to linger on your tongue after the smallest sip.
The Wagyu Tartare is one of the best beef tartares I’ve ever eaten —it’s a decent portion and comes with deliciously thin taro chips. Not to mention its perfect amount of saltiness from the truffle caviar on top! The truffle flavors really brought a level of depth to such a refreshing dish.
The Shishito Peppers with bonito flakes were beautifully charred and had the slightest bit of punch from the pepper’s seeds. We kept this on the table throughout our meal and it served as a great transition between the other dishes!
Then we ordered 2 maki rolls — the seared king salmon and dungeness crab roll as well as the himachi serrano chili roll. This ended up being the perfect accidental pairing, as the creaminess and fattiness of the salmon & crab roll was a delightful turn from the mild, but sharp heat of the himachi roll.
If you order a steak or the lamb, which I highly recommend you do, do not forget to add bone marrow as a side. The marrow is cooked to perfection and melts in your mouth, as it should, but the most interesting element of the dish is the sweet garlic soy sauce. It blended excellently with the fattiness of the marrow to produce a deeply savory experience that made my eyes roll back in my head.
My partner’s mother recommended we go for the Omakase, but we were so eager to try the Wagyu Tartare and Shishito Peppers that we just decided to make our own journey —it’s incredible either way, no doubt, but we will definitely give up our trust to the chef next time!
Service is friendly, foods tasting almost is delicious, But why the SF Mandate charge got the sales tax?
