Sushi Roku combines the finest, freshest fish from pristine waters around the globe with the kind of artistry that can only be provided by a mature sushi chef ensuring superlative traditional sushi, together with a splash of California innovation. Sushi Roku is a pioneer of contemporary sushi, incorporating diverse, non-traditional ingredients from Latin America (e.g. jalapeños) and Europe (e.g. olive oil) into its edible works of art. This unique culinary experience that bridges past and present is the result of an eagerness to embrace new ideas and a profound respect for tradition. Sushi Roku’s bold and diverse menu also offers an array of hot and cold specialty appetizers and an extensive selection of exotic entrées. Delivery Available through ChowNow.

RobataBar, located behind Sushi Roku features robatayaki style skewers, tapas style sashimi dishes, and sushi.

We enjoyed the experience and food. We dined with a party of 4, enjoyed a few appetizers of gyoza, miso soup, and lamp skewers. Sushi to follow that was very good. We also enjoyed the cheesecake dessert that was fun and artistic as it was surrounded with cotton candy that they lighted on fire.

Food was very mediocre especially the chefs choice sushi plate. The cocktails were no good and came out super late—I was already done with my food and dessert was on the way. The only good thing was that the server was very friendly and seemed to enjoy her job, she definitely did her best to take care of us. But I would not go back here due to the poor food quality.

The evening was spectacular!! The food, the service, the chefs plate and saki were all remarkable! The recommendations for our kids were spot on and the kids loved it as well. The restaurant manager was a delight and made us feel so welcome and even treated our kids to churros for dessert. I highly recommend!

Always a terrific dinner. I’ve been to the locations in MB and Newport and this is by far my fave. You can’t beat the ambience.
