Roka Akor

High quality Japanese cuisine (sushi and beef ) with a large list of Japanese whiskey . Great environment for groups, dates or special occasions . Tasting menu available from $98-200 per person.

Go for the decadent omakase !!! Pricey but def worth it!!! If not, Get the american wagyu ($15 an ounce) king crab , butterfish tataki , robata scallops and brussel sprouts , and truffle rice hot pot !

Immaculate rolls with special details. Yellowtail with scallions and jalapeño stood out. Garlic shrimp and butterfish apps. Great service.

Food is amazing! Service is amazing! Definitely recommend the asparagus and the skirt steak ! The sushi is amazing as well ! I was VERY pleased with everything this establishment had to offer.

This Phoenix import gives us the choice of two omakase menus: Signature or Decadent. With regular options like yellowtail , West Coast oysters or bluefin tuna , we’re pretty sure it’s gonna be delish. Read more

The yellowtail sashimi appetizer , mango four ways sushi roll , and black cod entree are the best things on the menu. This place is absolutely delicious and has the coolest female DJ on Friday nights :)

Really good rib eye , cooked perfectly. Dining companions got (also excellent) black cod and sea bass . Portion sizes are inconsistent, but everything except the very smoky tasting broccolini was great.

Food and service were amazing! We were celebrating my birthday and at the end they brought a delicious dessert on the house. I’ll definitely go back next time I’m in town !

Stylishly fashionable staff , atmosphere, guests and food! Pricey but worth it. You won't go wrong with anything on the menu. Staff and management are great!

I suggest the salmon avocado rolls and vegetable tempura rolls ! Other than that, the place is very trendy and noisy . Make sure to book a table in advance!

Roka Akor only serves its ramen at lunch when the clientele is sparse. But, figuring in the miso soup and nicely dressed salad , this lunch offering is a surprising value at $15.

Sushi & steak - now that is a great combo. Good wine list , nice atmosphere and great food. Get the Wagyu Beef and Kimchi Dumplings , Beef tataki w/ black truffle and Butterfish tataki for appetizers .

I loved this place!! Definitely try the Wagyu beef !! Definitely worth your buck! Make a reservation though, this place gets busy!

Everything off the grill is a winner: The pork belly appetizer ($12.50) and pork rib entree ($19.50) are slow-cooked in mustard sauce and seared on the grill; a light hoisin glaze finishes the ribs . Read more

The decadent omakase is worth the splurge. Robata grilled steaks are amazing. The mushroom rice hotpot with black truffle is a treat.

Try the chef’s selection steak from our 100 Best list: Go for the chef’s selection, they’re beautifully marbled , expertly grilled over Japanese binchotan charcoal, and the best value in the house.

It's hard to just pick one thing. The New York strip steak is amazing with the truffles ! Must have dessert , it's melt in your mouth goodness.

Phenomenal. Everything. The butterfish roll with scallop on top was one of the best things I've ever eaten.

I was definitely disappointed because they have such good reviews. Maki roll size is great but flavor is on the bland side. Crispy squid appetizer is good. Sashimi was fine. Not impressed all in all.

Try the Wagyu beef & kimchi dumplings , 4 course chief special “if your adventurous “ and their dessert .

Gorgeous decor and upscale (and priced accordingly) sushi , robata-grill items and high-end seafood and steaks . Read more

Beautiful space and presentation. Food had its ups and downs. Sushis and sashimis served too cold and were poorly cut. Careless. Black cod was delicious, beef and desert were boring. Very expensive .

Try: gilded wagyu tartare gunkan maki topped with caviar and wasabi and the lightly battered fried squid with jalapeño rings. Say no to the salt-grilled saba.

Pork belly is succulent, and the teriyaki salmon is great also. Some really good sake as well (quite a large and diverse list to choose from).

Was only here for the Happy Hour , which is super reasonable for food and drinks. Will be back!

Wagyu and kimchi gyoza and all of the sashimi and nigiri were phenominal

Roasted King Crab and Butterfish Tataki were winners. Anything off the grill is "specialty". Also a great place for groups.

The Signature Omakase is a quantity over quality affair. Yes you get full for the price but the quality ingredients aren’t there.

Great sushi for a business lunch . Kinda pricey but worth it

Get the himachi Serrano sushi , wagu beef dumplings , beef tataki with truffle sauce and black cod !!

Words cannot describe the Wagyu and kimchi gyoza

Best sashimi . Nigiri . Makis EVER.

Omakase all the way! Worthy date night or client dinner spot!

O toro, butterfish tataki ...and of course beef w ginger sauce . Yuzu semifreddo Yum...

Get the chef 's special tasting menu for a real treat.

They have the largest selection of sake in Chicago! We loved the lobster miso soup and butter fish roll .

Edward Kim, chef of Ruxbin, eats here on his nights off. He loves the Robata grilled Japanese shishito peppers . Read more

Ask for the OMAKASE ( Chef 's tasting menu ). It's the best thing to do.

omakase , just do it.

Be sure to request to be seated in the main dining room if you want to enjoy the full experience of the restaurant rather than the bar scene.

Get the Brussel sprouts and sushi is a safe bet.

Steak filet - one of the best we've ever had. Definitely worth coming back for!

Bento meals are a great deal for lunch

Prime rib good. But only given 8 slices. Had to go eat at Halal Guys afterward.

Penny Pollack says, "Wagyu gunkan @RokaAkorChi with green onion and caviar is a tasty way for tartare lovers to indulge."

Their Winter Menu is amazing! Don't pass up the fried oysters !

The skirt steak with sweet garlic soy is unbelievable!! Strongly suggest the Hamachi Serrano roll!
