I brought my wife here for our anniversary and it was our first time trying this restaurant and it was such an amazing experience. The staff were extremely polite and kind. The drinks were some of the best we had, I truly believe that I found my favorite cocktail of all time here. The food was presented in such an eye catching manner and the flavors were so delicious. Everything from the appetizer to the entrees and even the desserts. We were drooling over all the different dishes they brought. The views on the outside patio were stunning and even though it was slightly cold we were seated by the heaters and it made the experience so perfect. I want to thank all the staff that made this experience so memorable and I highly recommend this place and I know we will be back.

Such a nice neighborhood gem! Service was delightful and the food was delicious. Tempura was wonderful…best dipping sauce we’ve ever had. The shrimp and vegetables were so crispy without being greasy. Husband also had some sushi that he said was out of this world. He had spicy tuna roll and yellow tail lovers roll. Looking forward to the next time.

We have our teacher get togethers at Sushi Roku periodically and the assistant GM Grant Schrodetzki took good care of us. We also had desserts for the first time and their chocolate fondant with ice cream was amazing as well as the flaming cheesecake surrounded by cotton candy. A fabulous show! In addition to their good sushi
