    We had the best time at Ro! My friends and I went for my birthday and our waitress Isabelle pulled out all the stops! She had amazing recommendations and was so attentive. Definitely will be going back!

    Food was good! However, for the price, the table set up and closeness to the bussing station took away from the experience. The size of the dish-ware was big and the table was relatively small. When the food came out, the servers weren’t too sure where to place the plates since 2 plates already took up all of the space on the table. Our server was very kind, though!

    Food was delicious! The sushi was so fresh and was not over done with too many sauces. The popcorn shrimp is delicious too. Service was great.

    Food was very good. Sorry I forgot to take pictures. We had the popcorn rock shrimp $18. Very good, crispy with lots of spicy sauce. Because it's rock shrimp its sweeter and more tender here than other 'bang bang' shrimp. We then had the Blue Fin platter $56. Six pieces of nigiri two of each and three levels of fattiness. Delish! Next, the 5 pieces of Wagyu Tatiki $80. This was very good as it should be. If I am to find fault, the sauce was salty. We ordered the beef fried rice which was very good $28! Then the Miso Black Cod arrived $45. It was so tender and so rich served on a palm leaf with swipes of flavor on the plate. The waitress did warn us you only get a 5-6 oz. piece and nothing else on the plate. I did detect a bit of fishiness and the skin was soggy. They brought us each a yummy scoop of ice cream with passionfruit and crumblies. Ambience: Everything looks nice. The music was LOUD WITH DEEP THUMPING BEATS. The management must want to be a discotheque. They have an open to the outside bar so the music is for the cars passing by....with their windows closed. I hate a quiet restaurant but jeez. So 2 glasses of wine and $278.43 plus a tip later, we had a very, nice, rich birthday dinner.

    Our waitress, Ashley, was excellent. We shared the waygu gyoza, the Alaskan king crab California roll, the pork belly and a sashimi tray-all very good. And then we had the Peking Duck meal for 4 and it was outstanding! The duck was tender and flavorful along with the duck fried rice, sauces and pickled vegetables! We will definitely go back! The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because the price point is high and the music was loud.

    Dinner here was spectacular. The sushi was some of the freshest I’ve ever had. Some clear stand outs were the spicy salmon maki and duck fried rice (not to mention the ice cream). Our waiter Stevie was super sweet and extremely knowledgeable about the food and was able to describe all the dishes and answer all our questions easily. Overall one of the best restaurants in the Tampa Bay Area and we’ve already made reservations for our next visit.

    Food is good but overpriced. I think rent is too high and they have too much staff to compete with other resturants.

    Wonderful first time with exceptional ambiance and food. Extra bonus for the waiter taking us to the speakeasy next door and getting pleasantly surprised with exceptional drink presentations.
