Roka Canary Wharf

Overall a good experience . Ordered : Wagyu - loved it ! I usually avoid wagyu but this particular one was just right ! Scallops - my ultimate fave at ROKA Yellowtail hamachi Lamb chops Lots of pineapple martinis - these were delicious and recommended by our waiter (love that!) Lots of HennyXO The bar area is my favourite as it isn’t as noisy as the main restaurant floor ! God is it noisy in the restaurant !! Especially as this was a weekday and the local CanaryWharf crowd were everywhere and you can’t hear yourself think! Besides that, I enjoyed the food A LOT! I love coming to ROKA and ordering their grilled scallops on the skewers ! Always massive, fresh, juicy and perfectly made ! Shout out to the chefs for scallops ! Service to me is great when the waiters, sommeliers and attendants pay attention and suggest dishes based on what you may have already ordered. My waiter recommended the yellowtail jalapeño WITH truffle as I enjoyed the one without so much 😋 I usually order two of these when I go to ROKA because I enjoy it so much. Tangy, fresh, thin and melts in ur mouth! The bar tender was also able to make my Brandy Alexander, I always ask for this and as it is a on off menu cocktail, what I usually want to hear is “Yes of course I’ll ask our bartender”. Bartenders should be able to make any drink NOT just the ones on the menu 💕

The price is more justified by the attention to detail in the service received. Food was tasty, but no more special than many other less pricey restaurants. Cocktails were as they should be, alcoholic and moreish! The ambience was strange, felt like we were in a thoroughfare, constantly being passed, by patrons and staff. Overall a lovely experience - perhaps my expectations were too high, which is why it didn't get 5*s 🤔

Great lunch deal… a little of everything and will surely fill you up! Beef fillet and baby back ribs both good taste and good portions… for the price, it is surely worth it (£36pp) for the servings. Nice touch for the anniversary dessert free of charge. One thing to improve would be the pace of serving the mains, our tempura and rice were behind 10mins and so the meat had lost its warmth.. overall great service and good value for money! Will be back for lunch. Ala carte pricing is much more expensive.

Overall is nice, but the sashimi I had was small in size and was so thinly cut, they could have cut the fishes more thickly. If not bigger pieces. I mean I don’t mind the portion but at least they could make it more proper. The sushi rice was fluffy and tasty. The lemon and lime garnish etc was not very fresh considering the price. May visit for screwers next time, though.
