    Went on Valentine’s Day!!! had reservations at 8, showed up at 7:45 and didn’t get seated until after 9. You would think for a business that’s been open for so long they would have a system for seating during busy holidays. Our Chef James made the wait worthwhile though , he made great jokes and interacted with my son who gets shy in these types of situations. By far the best chef I’ve had here. thank you James

    The amaebi and Hokkaido Scallops were my favorite. They were fresh and had a hint of sweetness. We also had the Chutoro and chicken-age, they were exquisite!

    You need to do the Omakase. My wife and I flew up for the day on a cheap flight and explored the city and you will not be disappointed with the Omakase experience especially if you sit and the dining counter over a table! Presentation, taste, and ambiance were all amazing. You will be taken care of! Thank you for everything Roka Akor and making my wife’s birthday special. I will fly back up just to visit again!
