ROKA
Cosmopolitan Japanese cuisine where the Robata Island grill takes centre stage. Expect authentic tasty dishes mixed with a lively yet inviting atmosphere.
Location: Roka Aldwych
ROKA BOTTOMLESS BRUNCH
Cost: £69.50 per head
As entertaining as bottomless brunches often are, they aren’t often associated with fine dining. Quantity is often prioritised over quantity.
The ROKA Bottomless Brunch sets out to challenge that stereotype, something it does rather successfully. As it should, for almost £70 a head.

ROKA MENU
The ROKA menu is centred around the robata grill that so defines the ROKA experience. The menu is split into five main categories:
Snacks, Salad and Tempura
Sushi and Sashimi
Robata
Tasting Menu
Desserts
You’ll enjoy the open kitchen dining experience at ROKA thanks to the cosmopolitan interior design centred around the Robata grills. These suave kitchenettes are a staple of Japanese hibachi restaurants, enabling the chefs to prepare the food in front of the revellers. The restaurants deliver a relaxing yet enjoyable dining destination. Despite being located in some of the capital’s liveliest locations, the welcoming atmosphere combined with the simply spectacular spectacle of the chefs at work will transport you out of the hustle and bustle of London and into the tranquillity of a Japanese hibachi.
For that rather significant outlay expect ten small plates, a main, dessert platter and two hours of flowing bubbles, red or white wine. Our brunch selection came with a range of sashimi, maki, dumplings, tempura and skewers from the robata grill, as well as steamed edamame.
At time of writing, the choice of mains was:
yaki yasai moriawase – selection of grilled vegetables (vg)
tai no miso-yaki – sea bream fillet ryotei miso and red onion (gf)
sake teriyaki – salmon fillet teriyaki with sansho salt
gyuhireniku no pirikara yakiniku – beef sirloin with chilli, ginger and spring onion
kinoko no kamemeshi – mushroom hot pot with truffle (vg) (gf)
kobuta no ribs yawaraka nikomiyaki – glazed baby back pork ribs with cashew nuts
hinadori no lemon miso yaki – cedar roast baby chiken with garlic, chilli and lemon (gf)
ROKA has rightfully earnt a reputation for the presentation and execution of their award winning Japanese menu, and the bottomless brunch is no exception to this. Given the tipsy nature of the clientele, the brunch experience is rather more relaxed than the evening affair.
