Reviews
The restaurant itself is a bit small but full of energy and busy! The host was super friendly, helpful with suggestions, and genuinely kind. Even with how busy it was, the food came out quickly, which was impressive. Definitely one of those hole-in-the-wall gems you’re excited to discover and can’t wait to come back to. Highly recommend!
We looked up other reviews and went on some recommendations. They were right. Pick some options off the daily specials menu. We had the scallop crudo and snapper off that menu.The Autumn of Canada and Roseville rolls were excellent as well. We also had the edamame. We had three beers between us as well and we paid $130 with tip. That is not of line from our perspective.
We went at 4:30 before reservations start at 5:30. Seems like reservations are recommended.
Highly recommend.
It’s a relatively small, intimate venue, although it’s not exactly the best place to have little kids running around, they were very sweet to us and enthusiastically accommodated our daughter the best they could with a nice high chair.
I love the black salt on the edamame, and the mackerel was excellent quality. Tasty salad and miso, they were also able to accommodate with a reasonably good selection of cooked rolls. Teriyaki steak plate was excellent as well with crunchy fresh vegetables.
Hostess waiter owner, were all very nice to us checking up on us regularly. We felt very welcomed here, loved the food and would happily return
The prices are in line with other sushi restaurants with some premium items on the more expensive side. The wait time for the food was mixed. The service was good and checked in occasionally to refill water and ensure there were no issues.
We were seated at two separate tables—not ideal for a celebration—but given the size and layout of the dining area, the arrangement made sense. Service throughout the evening was efficient, friendly, and well-timed.
We started with spicy edamame and mixed tempura. Both were strong openers. Most of the group ordered sushi rolls, with one chicken teriyaki plate and one chicken katsu plate rounding things out. The guest who ordered the chicken katsu mentioned she wished it had arrived hotter; katsu is typically served piping hot, so that stood out as a small concern.
As for the rolls: I ordered the Roseville roll, another guest had the Cheetah roll, and one ordered the Paradise roll (others escape my memory). My Roseville roll was good and enjoyable, but I found myself wanting one dominant, signature flavor to really make it pop. Solid, but not especially memorable.
The Cheetah roll, however, was a standout. I tried a piece of my daughter’s order and it had a great flavor profile—the cream cheese nicely balanced the jalapeños and Cheetos. The Paradise roll was also quite good.
Overall, the timing of food delivery was quick, and every plate was attractively presented and thoughtfully arranged. As I’ve mentioned in other reviews, we have a saying when something is truly fantastic: it “hit the table good.” Did Roku hit the table good? In some areas, yes.
Spicy edamame: hit the table good
Cheetah roll: hit the table good
Service: hit the table good
Everything else: solid
One final note: I’d love to see a non-alcoholic beer added to the menu. Non-alcoholic beer has seen roughly 20–23% year-over-year growth, compared to 5–7% for flavored vodkas. Asahi Super Dry 0.0% would be a great option to consider.
I’ll definitely go back again—just not in a big hurry, if you catch my drift.
The green ice tea was excellent, surprised me when I tasted it, nutty and not acidic.
But what’s really on your mind? “How does it stack up to Mikuni?” You won’t find Musolini Pasta or fried cheesecake at Roku. It’s more for sushi purists who want the best flavors that highlight the actual fish, uni, scallop or eel.
If you want to be overpowered with sauces and cream cheese, go somewhere else. If you want amazingly balanced fish- centered sushi, come and enjoy the local marvel Roku. I’ll see you there 🙂
Read good things about this place – they were spot on. We sat at the bar to watch the chefs build out various dishes and chef Hue was friendly on explaining their menu and dialing in what we might like.
As to the food. It was really good. Heck, even their miso (tofu, mushrooms, seaweed, scallions) was packed with flavor and I am usually bored with miso soup.
Highly recommend the “Pepperfin Tuna” (albacore sashimi, jalapenio, tobiko, micro cilantro, daikon, pepperfin sauce) it’s fantastic – beautiful balance of heat and flavors. Also tried the chef’s choice “Nigiri Moriawase”, which also would order again.
Finally we tried the very tasty “Autumn of Canada Roll” (shrimp tempura, spicy crab, cucumber, shrimp tempura, soy wrap, topped with salmon, lemon slices, crunchy garlic, sweet soy glaze) which will be stuffed in my face the next time we visit.
Absolutely worth checking this place out. So glad to find a good sushi restaurant that doesn’t overuse sauces and let’s the ingredients really shine through.
