    Lovely place for a special meal in celebration of my birthday. The staff was attentive but not overly so, giving our family time to visit and eat at our own pace. This was true even though one member of our party was delayed. The staff accommodated their late arrival and didn't miss a beat. Thank you for a lovey evening!

    Very flavorful food (wins over my normally finicky family). Solid service. Found Roka Akor by chance during restaurant week, now we often return.

    The salmon is farm raised, so no , thank you. The tempura vegetables were oily, but well grilled and seasoned and served with a steaming pink peppercorn dipping sauce. The rice and mushroom hot pot with tofu was an interesting vegetarian choice.
