- AAndyLos Angeles •1 review5.0Dined on 8 Feb 2025You need to do the Omakase. My wife and I flew up for the day on a cheap flight and explored the city and you will not be disappointed with the Omakase experience especially if you sit and the dining counter over a table! Presentation, taste, and ambiance were all amazing. You will be taken care of! Thank you for everything Roka Akor and making my wife’s birthday special. I will fly back up just to visit again!More infoRoka Akor - San FranciscoPrice: Moderate• Steakhouse• Financial District / Embarcadero•4.7
