Roka Aldwych in City of London, Westminster

This was a lovely restaurant, very busy at 6:30 pm on a Wednesday evening and I would certainly recommend booking. The waitress looking after us was really helpful however there are two negatives to this restaurant that I feel worth pointing out to make other diners aware. 1. They advertise having a happy hour both outside the restaurant and on the front of the menu that they give you when you sit down at your table. However, if you are a diner happy hour doesn’t apply to you, you can only access the happy hour if you are not eating and are sitting at the bar which just felt a little wrong as we were paying full price for our drinks, when are sat at the bar weren’t and we were pre-booked and sitting and spending a lot of money in their restaurant, I feel they could be a little bit more accommodating with this. 2. They offer a number of set menus both for lunchtime pre-theatre and a full tasting experience however none of these actually cater for a vegetarian. There is a selection of vegetarian dishes on the menu which were actually really nice. It would just be a little nicer if you were also able to do the tasting that menu experience as a vegetarian. Apart from those two issues we really enjoyed the food and would probably go back again just a little bit disappointing that they were aware of these issues as they told us other other diners had raised them but hadn’t done anything about it .

Very bad price-quality ratio. The tasting menu didn't surprise us, everything was good but very average, nothing surprising and much less exceptional for the price you pay even though it's in central London

We've come here a few times and it never disappoints. the service is efficient and food is great. The highlights were the black - cod. Brilliant. Ribs and sushi also great. Great spot for a date night.

I’ve been to Roka 3 times (Green Park & Aldwych) I would defo recommend doing the brunch, especially if you are going with a big group of people. It is a lot of fun and you get a lot for your money. The food was quality, I didn’t like the raw fish options due to personal preferences but the rest of the menu was amazing.

The food was quality the service was excellent from the staff. From the moment I came through the door & was greeted. The service was fantastic whilst being served & also at the bar. The experience was superb. The only thing I would improve was the amount of desert served. Great place to visit and I would go back!

Beautiful evening ruined by a very rude waiter… Roka Aldwych is a beautiful restaurant serving delicious, fairly priced food with a wide variety of options on the menu. The baby chicken and iceberg lettuce being the stars of the show for me. Sadly a beautiful evening with friends was tainted by a very rude waiter. We had ordered one of the cheaper bottles of wine on the menu and when the bill arrived we had been charged for one over twice the price of the bottle we had ordered. Mistakes happen and that’s okay as long as a resolution is quickly and peacefully reached. I’m not sure which wine we drank as the bottles are kept away from the table but I know which one we ordered as I pointed to it on the menu. When I raised this we were passed onto a man who I believe was the sommelier (as he was not the waiter we had had all evening who was polite, efficient and well mannered). The sommelier / other waiter tried to tell me that this was my fault and not the fault of the restaurant. He was very rude and aggressive in his tone refusing to accept that the mistake was made on their side. Eventually he admitted that the restaurant were at fault and agreed to charge us for the bottle of wine we had ordered. The whole experience was not conducive to an environment which respects customers or the manner in which you should speak to another human being, let alone someone who is paying to be there!! The restaurant manager followed up with an apology but this was sadly too little too late. I won’t be returning and would encourage anyone going to double check their bill before paying…

I visited Roka Aldwych on Good Friday to try their Classic Weekday Set Menu—and holy moly, it was incredible! Every dish was impeccable. The sashimi, tempura prawn, and sushi were unbelievably fresh, while the gyozas and miso soup were bursting with rich, comforting flavour. For the main, I went with the baby back pork ribs—perfectly seasoned, juicy, and generously meaty. The cocktails were equally impressive. I had the Kinome Spritz, which is an absolute must for Aperol Spritz fans, with the zesty bittersweetness of Aperol but with a sweet twist. The service was outstanding throughout. A special shoutout to Elling (apologies if I’ve misspelled it!)—you were so warm, friendly, and knowledgeable. Your descriptions and recommendations made the whole experience even better. We truly enjoyed having you as our server. All in all, Roka is amazing—and we’ll definitely be back!

Had been recommended the brunch and was certainly not disappointed. Fabulous selection and variety of sushi, sashimi and hot main courses, topped off with a stunning dessert platter. Didn't both with the bottomless wine pairing but instead had beers and cocktails which suited us better. Not cheap, but an expense well spent.

Really good food but a little bit to expensive 😊

ROKA Charlotte Street delivers top-tier Japanese food in a vibrant atmosphere. The food and the service is excellent. Perfect for a special night out.

Sashimi was fresh and delicious. However, service was disappointing. Not the right place if you’re looking for a warm intimate atmosphere for a special occasion. Upon entering the restaurant, staff were quite unwelcoming. Our waiter was aware it was our first time here but failed to explain the menu when requested. Food delivery was poorly executed- sashimi served first, broccoli and portobello mushroom dishes served last (ending the meal with a bang (?)). My boyfriend requested ahead of time for a surprise cake, which was served 20 minutes after the end of our meal and quite obviously ruined the surprise. We had the truffle mushroom rice, crab gyoza, wagyu sushi, sashimi, yellowtail tataki, california maki, baby pork ribs, portobello mushroom and broccoli. Fairly enjoyable in terms of flavour, but would not recommend to anyone in confidence.

I absolutely adore ROKA. The black cod is phenomenal 👌🏻

-chutoro was not chutoro - salmon tataki was dry - staff forgot dishes - skewer meat was questionable 1 star due to the chutoro not being actual chutoro.

La comida en Roka Aldwych era excelente. Optamos por el menú degustación de temporada, que era extenso y proporcionaba una generosa cantidad de comida. Un plato destacado fue el filete de besugo con ryotei miso y cebolla roja, que estaba perfectamente equilibrado y lleno de sabor. El servicio era una bolsa mixta - mientras que las bebidas y la limpieza de la mesa eran lentos, uno de nuestros miembros tenía una alergia alimentaria, y el miembro del personal que tomó nuestro pedido fue increíblemente diligente, demostrando un gran conocimiento del menú para garantizar que todo era seguro. El mayor problema, sin embargo, era el ruido; aunque me encanta un ambiente animado, la combinación de música alta y una acústica deficiente dificultaba la conversación. Es un espacio hermoso y abierto, pero quizás algunos ajustes de sonido ayudarían a equilibrar la energía con la comodidad. Un gran lugar para aquellos que buscan un entorno vibrante, pero no es ideal para una cena relajada con conversación.

Stunning food and atmosphere. Our group was well and truly impressed with the quality and service in ROKA. Will be coming back for sure.😃

Came here for a birthday meal and it was amazing. The food was incredible, the atmosphere was good, and the service was fantastic. They had lots of gluten free options, and the staff really looked after me with allergies and were very knowledgeable about cross contamination. Every item that we ordered they would talk us through what was safe for me and what wasn’t. Would definitely recommend!

The restaurant has a pretentious atmosphere that does not support the actual experience. Yes, you can leave your coat at the front, there are many servers, place looks modern. But! The noise of loud music from the lounge is quite loud in the restaurant area. The acoustics of the restaurant is horrible and you would need to shout and strain your hearing to have a conversation (we were 6 and it was pretty impossible). Waitress did not confirm order and actually did not record it correctly. So we had some rather disappointed people at the table. And the food… it is ok. But not more. We think similar style restaurants with less pretence actually have better food. Sashimi, meats, sushi were all just ok. So I don’t understand why the hype?

Después de probar algunos menús degustación de Asia Oriental en Londres, pensamos en darle una oportunidad a Roka. Por el dinero que gasté y en comparación con algún lugar como Nobu, Roka no está en el mismo campo. Encontré el servicio para un restaurante de tanta estima abrumadoramente decepcionante. Optamos por el menú degustación premium. Se sacó el primer plato y no teníamos ni idea de lo que nos había dicho la mujer. Pero antes de que pudiéramos parar y preguntar, ¿podrías repetir? Ella se había ido. Luego el segundo plato, lo mismo. De repente, los cursos tres, cuatro y cinco se llevaron a nuestra mesa con pocos segundos de diferencia. ¿Cómo se supone que voy a disfrutar de un menú degustación con 4 platos diferentes en mi mesa a la vez. El personal simplemente no hablaba lo suficientemente alto como para ir por encima de la parte superior de la música bastante alta y estaban constantemente corriendo alrededor, que no es algo que esperaba aquí. El problema principal que experimenté y algo que no creo que los clientes deban escuchar en el comedor fue que un miembro del personal de camareros tuvo una experiencia pobre con un cliente de pago que todavía estaba sentado en su mesa comiendo. Él lo estaba discutiendo con su colega femenina directamente detrás de nosotros y sus palabras fueron "señalarlos y yo iré a tratar con ellos". Imagino que este tipo de situaciones pasan todos los días, pero tal vez no digas esto a oídos de tus clientes? Teníamos un asiento en el mostrador para la cena y los chefs eran muy educados cuando iniciaste conversación con ellos. Hubiera estado bien en algunos casos si hubieran interactuado más con nosotros, pero puedo ver por qué esperan a que los clientes inicien la conversación. Dicho esto, la comida estaba bien. Las chuletas de cordero fueron la estrella del espectáculo. El shiitake tempura era bueno, pero muy sostenido por la trufa. La tempura del camarón era genial. Sin embargo, el filete de res estaba bastante mal. Seco, cocinado definitivamente más hacia el medio / bien cuando habíamos pedido medio raro y muy salado. El postre fue muy rico. Puedes conseguir mejor bacalao negro en otra parte en mi opinión. De hecho, recordar la comida ha sido lo difícil aquí, ya que he tenido que volver al menú degustación en el sitio web para recordar lo que se sirvió. La pregunta del millón es, ¿volvería? La respuesta en esta ocasión es tristemente, no.

A pretty bad experience. This place is heavily overrated because of its name. Yes, it looks nice, but it’s not an authentic Japanese spot serving great sushi. I was there to film some content for work, and a waiter treated me like I was crazy—constantly reminding me not to include him in the videos, as if I were a child. One particular staff member, a tall guy with light eyes and a grey jacket (probably the only tall person in the room), even **followed me into the bathroom** after I got up to wash my hands. He watched me suspiciously, as if I were playing some kind of joke, when in reality, I was just doing my job. A terrible experience—I’d recommend other places instead. Don’t waste your time here.

I felt quite disappointed by the experience, certainly not what I expected for the price you pay and a valentines dinner, you can find equal or better Japanese food at half the price in London, staff was nice, but the music was too loud, we where sitting at a table next to the main entrance and a lot of times there where clients waiting at the door for the wardrobe and and all the cold air from outside was getting in, we wished we haven't left our coats in the wardrobe. Food wise the cod and crab gyoza where a highlite, and the rest was quite average and overpriced... £10.20 for just 2 salmon nigiri you guys are taking the piss, Also they know the food is supposed to be shared but they serve uneven portions of everything.. instead of 6 maki you get 5... Very sneaky, desert was also very average and uninteresting, I ordered the hokkaido ichigo cheesecake, and they served me a deconstructed mess, a flavourless sponge cake with a blob of cheese ice cream, a diced half strawberry and some crushed biscuits. Would not come back

Dining at Romantic Aldwych is a journey of impeccable service, culinary mastery, and an atmosphere steeped in sophistication. From the moment you settle in, the experience unfolds with seamless precision, making it an unforgettable destination for romance and refined indulgence. The service is truly world-class, led by the exceptional Chris, the main manager, whose leadership ensures an effortlessly smooth and elegant experience. Larisa, the assistant, complements this with her warmth and attentiveness, ensuring that every detail is meticulously handled. However, it was the remarkable efforts of Lee and Herly that truly elevated the evening. Their attentiveness, charm, and genuine passion for hospitality transformed the service into something extraordinary—effortless yet personal, refined yet inviting. The menu is a showcase of culinary excellence, where each dish is crafted with precision and presented with artistry. Every bite is an exploration of flavors, perfectly balanced and thoughtfully executed. The wine selection is equally exquisite, with carefully curated pairings that enhance each course beautifully. Romantic Aldwych is more than just a restaurant; it is an experience—one that lingers in the memory long after the final sip of wine. With an exceptional team ensuring every moment is seamless, it stands as a beacon of excellence in fine dining. A must-visit for those who appreciate impeccable service and remarkable cuisine.

The staff is missing in action. Even when you manage to get in contact they talk to you as if they don’t want to be there. The food is good but overpriced for the quality. I believe sticks and sushi is a better place to go.

Amazing Experience at Roka We didn’t have a reservation but decided to walk in, unsure how many people would actually join us. Despite being fully booked, the team at Roka was incredibly accommodating and even brought in extra chairs as more people arrived. We never felt rushed, even though they mentioned they would need the table back at a certain time. Later, they came over and told us they had made alternative arrangements, so we could enjoy our meal without any pressure—such a thoughtful touch! The food was absolutely outstanding, and the service was top-notch. A special shout-out to Henry, the manager, who was incredibly attentive, and the bartender John, who made our drinks just perfect. We’ll definitely be coming back again!

El Brunch, como siempre fue delicioso, el servicio, como siempre, estaba en su punto . . pero lo que elevó el listón esta vez fue el hecho de que llegamos tarde y aceptamos que tendríamos que acortar nuestro espacio de Brunch de 2 horas , así que , no solo nos sorprendió, sino que estábamos sinceramente agradecidos al Jefe de Servicios al Huésped que nos recibió en recepción y reorganizó nuestra disposición de asientos para que pudiéramos disfrutar de la experiencia completa de 2 horas . Mil gracias señor por ser considerado!

Had a brunch fantastic experience with a friend. Service and food was impeccable, very attentive team members that were very knowledgeable about each dish. If you like your brunch spots, then this place is a must try in London. You will not be disappointed.

It's been a while since I've been to one of their restaurants, and this location feels a bit more like a high-end bar or club, similar to some of the restaurants in Shard. Decided to go for the tasting menu, and it did not disappoint everything was delicious, fresh,substantial, and beautifully presented with fine attention to detail. My only criticism was that when food was brought to my table, I did not receive a proper description of the dishes, as the servers either spoke to fast, did not explain properly or/and the music was a little too loud.

ROKA was an easy choice, recommended by a well-travelled friend with a taste for great cuisine and experiences. From the exquisite starters to the perfectly presented pork ribs and sirloin steak mains, every bite delivered on quality and flavour and then came the perfect dessert platter. The unlimited starters concept was a highlight—be sure to save room for your mains! The attentive service from Davide and Linh was exceptional, keeping the experience seamless without any rush. The ambience stood out too: elegant décor, and it was refreshing to see that none of the guests, including the younger ones, seemed glued to their phones—something rarely seen these days. Parking on nearby streets (like Chancery Lane) was hassle-free on a Sunday. At £163 for two, including drinks (one person on a drinks package) and service, it’s a fantastic treat. We'll definitely return, possibly with the whole family for a birthday celebration. Highly recommend.

Just love Roka. A little pricey but always perfection. The quality of the food speaks for itself.

Absolutely loved this place. We went with the bottomless brunch option and it was great value for money. Food was delicious, vibes were good, staff were great.

Amazing japanese brunch in a gorgeous modern Japanese environment with open kitchen. Bottomless fantastic starters, delicious all around

Geweldige bediening, rustig en zeer behulpzaam. Het eten is echt voortreffelijk, alles is vers en de smaken zijn bijzonder. Wij hebben hier een geweldige avond gehad

Dessert bowl and cocktails were a highlight!

Beautiful place with very welcoming staff.

Ambience definitely makes a lovely location for a date night. Awesome and friendly staff

Great sushi in a pleasant setting, making it a solid option in the area. While it’s not authentic Japanese cuisine and the restaurant could use a bit more personality, the atmosphere is still lovely, and the food is consistently good. The wagyu gunkan is a standout and my personal favourite alongside the black cod and sesame spinach.

Specifically booked this for NYE, Where advertised if booked after 9pm £140 per person you have access to the roof top fireworks and champagne at midnight, this is the only reason we chose here, when we got there we was told it was sold out?!! This should have been clearer on the website. Absolutely ruined the whole entire night. Appalling level of service.

Así que la comida era muy buena... pero cara para lo que es. Fue por NYE y el servicio fue HORRIBLE! Tenía 4 servidores diferentes, esperando bebidas durante al menos 20 minutos a la vez. Me sentí apresurado a despejar la mesa para la siguiente mesa. El camarero se acercó a nuestra mesa 15 segundos después de sentarse preguntando si estábamos listos para ordenar. Ni un hola, feliz año nuevo, ni siquiera pidiendo agua o bebidas. Nos apresuró. En general la comida era buena, pero la experiencia en general dejó un mal sabor de boca en mí y mis familias.

Servicio muy encantador Camilo , Adrian, John, Giulia , Alicia , lachhin y Nikolay son personas muy increíbles, gran hospitalidad va más allá. Definitivamente volveré de nuevo

Well, it reallly was super special. The staff were super attentive, the food delicious and plentiful and the fireworks on the roof made for the most perfect intro into 2025. LOL Johnson family x

Bottomless brunch on a Sunday is a vibe. Lovely high end fusion restaurant

Beautiful place with very welcoming staff. The food was exquisite, and the service really assisted us in our choices and engaged with our wishes! Marvellous place

Food was spectacular and even better with amazing customer service from Herlin. Can’t wait to return!

Swish gaff, superb service and the open barbie gives off a lovely a lively atmosphere

Thank you!! - I booked for friends, who had never visited before - We had an unforgettable dining experience with wonderful suport with menu choices. We started with beautifully presented Sushi and Sashimai followed by a wonderful selection from the Robata. Overall: A truly warm and inviting experience, delivered by an attentive and knowlegeable team-Highlighy recommended!!

Our first waiter came across a little bit uninterested. We booked a birthday brunch and he didn’t explain any of the brunch, the normal or premium options. We waited quite a while for food for our brunch and then were told we were on the last sitting and that the kitchen closed at four. Before we received the food, we were told if we wanted extra we could order more. This was a little confusing as we hadn’t got the original food yet? But they would rather you have more food than not enough so encourage you to order more. The food is amazing. It’s really good value and I would definitely recommend it. Julian and Alleta were incredible and really kept it fun and professional. They answered all of our questions and sorted out the GF menu which was brilliant. The only thing that let us down was the slight rush to order more food and the original waiter.

Quite expensive for some of the dishes. Highly recommend the lamb.

Best restaurant in Aldwych. Only go for special occasions.

My friend and I enjoyed the Bottomless wine brunch 😋

Great family friendly restaurant with amazing food.

Great food. Great ambience. Will definitely be back again

We had a lovely dinner tonight! There was some confusion with the booking but the manager, Arleta, was amazing and sorted everything out promptly and I would like to say a huge thank you! Service great as usual, food even better and would go back again and again as we have done for the last 7 years or so! Thank you.

Arleta was amazing, she gives the best service hands down. I don’t really right reviews but I do feel she needs to be recognised thank you so much for serving us and being amazing.

Amazing introduction to the food a great pre theatre offering

Food is delicious but it is very loud inside, if you're looking for something intimate this is definitely not the place to go.

A very pleasant evening - great food in general but the sashimi was quite disappointing (no taste).

Food was very good but service was slow. Our waiter had to be found for everything. We also had to wait 20 minutes just for him to provide our check and another 10 to pay.

A special thank you to Sara; very professional, polite and caring.

Price is high, food is good. Overall pretty decent. Surf and turf was a great deal.

Went to Roka for the first time yesterday for a friend's 60th birthday. 7 of us went, and we did the £55 deal. Plus, the £20 unlimited wine or prosecco. We booked a few months ago but due to popular demand we didn't get into the main restaurant we were seated in the bar area. Apparently, the restaurant area fills up very quickly. We arrived a little early and had to wait quite a while as the people on our table were running late. Had a glass of fizz whilst waiting. Once seated, the waiter was great. I told him about my nut allergy and being vegetarian. He showed me a separate menu, and I chose the baked eggplant as my main. The waiter then filled our glasses with either prosecco, rose, white, or red wine, whichever we wanted. The startes came, and they were all amazing. The waiter brought me my own starters that had had no cross contamination. The waiter made sure I had lots of different starters. Everyone else had the mixed sharing starters. Everyone, including me, loved the starters selection very fresh and lots of different flavours. All the time, the waiter was topping up our drinks and checking if we needed more food. Then the mains came once again. I was given mine separately. I had the eggplant, which came with asparagus time, tender stem broccoli, and grilled mushrooms. The others on the table had salmon, chicken, or ribs with different salads and potatoes. The food was amazing and there was lots of it. Then the dessert came once again. Mine was separate. Everyone else shared a huge platter, including mango Sorbet, chocolate chunks, chocolate cake, mango, pineapple, melon, strawberries, raspberries, lychee and little moons. All served on a bed of crushed ice. Dessert was amazing, so fresh, and something that suited everyone. I have to say this was some of the best food I had ever eaten. The £20 drinks package, I definitely got well over £20 of drink in the 2 and a half hours you get at the table. Service was amazing. The table we had in the bar area was lovely quiet and felt like we had our own little area. As a person with a severe nut allergy and being vegetarian, they catered so well for me, and I felt safe and well looked after. I would like to try the main restaurant next time as it has funky mood lighting and great decor, but saying that our table didn't lesson our experience. It was still amazing. The people there were a mixture of young and older. Lots of people looked liked models and very trendy. I would recommended this restaurant to anyone who enjoys good food.

Had ana amazing time , food was excellent, service was excellent overall a great night. The wagu was to die for

Very good, however, also not cheap

Good food with very good service and atmosphere, beautiful restaurant, but the price... I've eaten so much better food for half the price in London

Sashimi was delicious, highly recommend the dumplings and the ribs. The yellowtail salad, baby chicken and tempura was disappointing.

Can't even call it Japanese, the brunch food was embarrassing...its like some cheap Japanese restaurant quality charging expensive price....the sashimi was thin and badly cut like an after eight chocolate, and the rolls looked like the size of a rolo chocolate. Ignoring the price, I honestly would enjoy my food more in Itsu. DONT DO THE BRUNCH!!!

Great Happy hour. Great bar staff. Loved this place.

Brunch at ROKA was amazing. The service was outstanding and the food was delicious. The starters filled us up before we had our mains which shocked me but was definitely an enjoyable experience all together with a great vegan menu too.

Excellent place to go for happy hour after work. The drinks and service are fantastic.

Used to be better - there are better options for the same price range

Great atmosphere on a Friday night. Not cheap but great food.

Great cocktail bar. Service was excellent and I'm looking forward to going back and having some food at a later date.

Amazing pre theatre meal. Such delicious dishes. We were blown away . Set meal cost 38 pounds each and 5 pounds extra if you wanted a dessert. The sharing starters were incredible … tempura, sashimi, gyoza, sushi and then our main courses of ribs and salmon teriyaki. We were in good heaven! And then deserts… wow! the miso Creme caramel was incredible! The restaurant seemed a little short staffed.but staff were friendly anc helpful. It is a loud buzzy restaurant but we loved it! Thanks for an amazing meal!

service was bad. soup never arrived, tea never arrived. not informed about any food,not a niceexperience.

The food was fine, not amazing delicious but the service and atmosphere were both really nice.

food was fine, drinks were nice - the service let them down immensely. Rude inattentive staff, made 3 attempts to separate people to be seated after having had a drink at the bar just before our booking, all of which went ignored/forgotten; we got the feeling they didn’t care about our experience within the restaurant at all. Food is also overpriced.

Great service and the food was lovely. Smallish portions so you get to try more :)

I turned up without a reservation on birthday and they were still so accommodating and kind. Delicious food and drinks too. Thank you again for helping to make my birthday amazing!

Get the dessert platter. Seriously. The tasting courses are excellent too

Great experience and service was great. Food and ambience made it all

Such a lovely meal, the food was absolutely delicious and fresh!

Bottomless Brunch is 10/10 My glass wasn’t empty at all which is the meaning bottomless Food is yum Vibes Can be a bit loud but love

Very value for money brunch, unlimited starters is great and the main portions are large which is good however I was feeling already full from the starters and the manager was very kind and let us take it home. We were originally going for the Nobu one however I highly recommend this.

Having been to many, many Roka brunches over the years, I have realised that Aldwych Is the least pleasant experience. The food is below par, as is the service. On my most recent visit, I was unfortunately sat next to an extraordinarily unreasonably behaved child. Obviously, I understand that this cannot sometimes be helped. But the experience was less than enjoyable. No apologies Or attempt to make my brunch more enjoyable were made. I have come to the conclusion, That only Canary wharf Roka brunch is enjoyable and value for money. The atmosphere food and service is always much better than Aldwych. Will not return to the Aldwych branch in the future

So delicious. Service was fast. Drinks did not match the quality of the food. Not cheap.

It’s always a pleasure to dine at Roka Aldwych. This occasion was exceptional special as my dear friend just got engaged. The food, atmosphere and staff were brilliant. The only reason why I marked down the food is because the portion size for the sushi rolls we ordered was very small and not the same quality as usual. That was disappointing. Everything else was great.

Great value for money, you will leave feel full for sure! Service is good and the amount and quality of the food is reflected in the price. I recommend going with a group of friends to share all the food

Service was not great- not very attentive; once we ordered and food delivered, the staff disappeared. Canary Wharf location much better experience.

We recently attended ROKA brunch and having done it numerous times before we were extremely disappointed with our latest experience. The brunch used to be so amazing but the service during our latest visit was awful. We opted for the bottomless option and waited 20 mins for an arrival drink and had to chase our waiter down for a top up on our wine. Our waiter appeared to be tending to larger groups as opposed the smaller bookings which only added to the frustration. Whilst the food remained great, the value of the bottomless brunch option is overshadowed by poor service and having spent approx £250 on brunch it was a waste of money with other establishments offering better food and service.

Food is fine, overpriced for the flavour and portion size tbh. If you want a good option, get the set lunch menu. We had: Beef skewers- delicious, chicken yakitori - nice but too salty, Scallop skewers - need more shiso/dressing, squid karaage - yummy dressing but a bit wet and portion again tiny with barely present/not really crispy batter. Miso soup, rice, softshell crab maki all nice and reasonable tbf. Really rated the highball cocktail. Restaurant was suuuuper loud even at the edge hence poor atmosphere

Absolutely amazing-must go restaurant.

Family went here. Lovely atmosphere. Manager very attentive and respectful. Other staff very courteous. Food was fantastic. Highly recommend. Family and I will return to this restaurant again.

Nikolai is the best waiter I’ve ever had. The chicken skewers were delicious. Some of the best food I’ve ever eaten

Can honestly say it’s the happiest I’ve been since my cousin Francie beat Mike Harrington in the bowling road a few years back what a day I’ve had and what a day that was… splendid

The food was yummy but the service was average. Also the music was a bit too loud for my liking but I guess there's nothing to do about it.

Nice,good food but a bit expensive for the price there are better and cheaper spots in London

Food was absolutely delicious and they were very generous with the bottomless drinks. Left the brunch with a very full belly!

Food was absolutely delicious and they were very generous with the bottomless drinks. Left the brunch with a very full belly!

DIVINE food ! The crispiest of crispy Prawn Tempura, the crunchiest of crunchy crab, the dropping-off- the bone ribs... sigh... A matcha / chocolate / pear dessert like magic on the palate. Don't pretend to "know" Sake v well but we were all perfectly happy with the standard offering. Only 3* for atmosphere because it was a bit smoky with a fishy smell when we first walked in - could do with better ventilation. But overall, really, really, REALLY good. :-)

Sushi, maki and Japanese barbeque were really good, but a little expensive. Really enjoyed the miso soup. Service was good but I think the restaurant should probably help customers more in terms of orientating themselves with the menu.

The food wasn’t as good as it used to be and the service wasn’t the most friendly.

The food and service was just OK, nothing special. However we were allocated the worst possible table in the restaurant. Changing a table seemed too much of a trouble in a half empty restaurant and still we got the second worst table, right next to a noisy group of 12 and next to the waiters service area, having them passing by us every other minute and the manager standing right behind me talking to a waiter with his serving tray inches from my face. I used to like Roka, but we will now spend money elsewhere. Upon exiting the restaurant we complained and we were faced with indifference.
