Description

ROKA Jeddah is a Rokabatayaki Japanese restaurant located at the new Cascade at Jeddah Walk on Prince Mohammed Bin Abdulaziz St (Tahlia Street) in the Al Khalidiyyah district in central Jeddah. The name "ROKA" refers to gathering around the robata (a type of Japanese cooking), which is a main feature at the various ROKA restaurants, including the new one in Jeddah.

Robatayaki is a traditional Japanese cooking method that involves grilling food over hot charcoal. The term "robatayaki" means "fireside cooking" in Japanese. The food is cooked on a long, narrow grill called a robata, which is typically made of ceramic or metal. The grill is situated in the center of the dining room, and customers can watch as the chefs grill their food to perfection. Popular dishes cooked using the robatayaki method include skewered meats, seafood, and vegetables. The result is a delicious, smoky flavor that is unique to this type of cooking.

ROKA boasts a menu filled with traditional Japanese dishes that are prepared with a modern twist. From sushi to sashimi, tempura to teriyaki, there is something for everyone's taste buds at ROKA. The experienced chefs use the freshest ingredients to create these dishes, and the attention to detail is evident in each bite.

ROKA Jeddah offers a variety of unique dishes, such as a chicken sandwich with gochujang sauce, fried soft shell crab with chili shiso sauce, and a spicy tuna tempura roll with chili sesame mayo. For dessert, you can indulge in a milk chocolate lotus with banana ice cream and kokuto crumble, which can only be found at the Jeddah branch. ROKA also has a branch in the Sulamaniyah district of Riyadh, which was their first branch in Saudi Arabia.

Ok so we tried this new Japanese hype in J-Town. It was not worth the Hype there were some pros and cons. I wouldn’t consider it in my top 5 list for next time. Pros : service was amazing our indian waiter was very professional and friendly clearly he was trained well. Based on his communication skills and him actually knowing the whole Menu. Design of the place was delightful and im not a fan of dimmed lights, however, the lighting was good. Cons: the food was not that good it was average so it was not up to the hype everyone was talking about. Over priced for 2 persons. The ambiance was very cold with no music. Overall ill give it a 3 stars. Ill share some photos and videos of our experience.

Definitely one of the best Japanese Restaurant in Jeddah. 5-star customer service, foods are all great and very cozy ambiance. We tried the Taste of Roka menu set and all the foods included in the package are outstanding. Would love to try some more.

This is an exceptional new Japanese restaurant in Jeddah that's rapidly gaining popularity. Given the restaurant's popularity, it's often at full capacity, so reserving a table ahead of time is recommended. Every dish I ordered was nothing short of exquisite. The outstanding service further enhanced the dining experience, making it truly amazing. The only potential drawback is the pricing, which leans towards the higher side. However, considering the superior quality of food and service, it might be seen as worthwhile for a special occasion.

I had a blast at this Japanese restaurant. The music was lively, and upbeat setting the tone for enjoying the delicious food. The taste was authentic, as you would expect from a fine-dining restaurant, with a variety of dishes to choose from. The friendly staff was attentive and courteous, greeting us with a smile and making us feel welcome and comfortable. The manager was very attentive, walking us through the menu and recommending dishes, even serving us tableware in person. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a great Japanese dining experience.
