Far better Vento boxes as well as tempura than Mikuni's! The Roku restaurant sets a high bar for Japanese food in Roseville and Placer County. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Fantastic food quality. We had a variety of sashimi, rolls and ramen, all of which carried wonderfully traditional flavors. Our server, Brithany, was super friendly and amazing. Will definitely be returning!!

Ok so here is an honest review from a local and from someone who is obsessed with sushi.The place is super modern with lovely design and very inviting. The location is great.The service was very fast and all the staff was very welcoming and attentive.Now onto the reason you go out - the food. It was not impressive at all. The miso soup was brought lukewarm and had an unpleasant taste. The tea was also not hot. The tuna tataki was flavorless. The chicken katsu was indeed crispy but again lacked any kind of flavor. The rolls had all the typical ingredients but again lacked the flavor profile. The best thing we had was the nigiri. The fish and texture was amazing! And of course the presentation of was creative!Such a cute spot but we will keep trying other places around the neighborhood.

This place was so delicious! We love another local sushi place but wanted to try something new and this did not disappoint. For sure one of our favorites in our new rotation. We had the ramen, potstickers, sweet potato truffle fries and a few rolls and everything was 10/10! Service and ambiance was amazing as well. Thank you for a wonderful night!

After hearing about this place for months, finally made our way to enjoy lunch on a Sunday afternoon. The restaurant has a great atmosphere, decor, and branding. Everything has their logo on it, so it feels very upscale. Plus everything feels clean, well maintained, and the table setup is quite inviting.Going in I planned on having a bento box, but after looking at the menu, I was drawn to the Tonkatsu Ramen. I love a good ramen and was excited to try it. We also got an order of their goyza for an appetizer.The goyza is pan fried and is served in a very decorative manner. The dumpling wrapper is light, which I prefer over thicker wrappers. The flavor was good and the dipping sauce was on point. However, I wish they were hotter and the pan fry just a bit more crispy. They weren’t cold, but just a few more degrees would make these perfect.The tonkatsu ramen came with pork belly, corn, nori, soft boiled marinated egg, bamboo shoots, and green onion. The broth was very authentic looking and tasting. The noodles were cooked well and still had that signature chew. The pork was absolutely delicious, but I have to say I was a bit disappointed with the amount of items in the ramen. It came with plenty of noodles, but I would have enjoyed more corn and green onion. I also wish they provided some chili oil or something to add spice as it was a bit bland. Lastly, it just wasn’t hot enough. The soft boiled egg, while good, was cold in the middle and sadly is only a half egg, not even a whole one.I definitely will be going back to try some other items on their menu, but I’d like to see their food hotter next time. The atmosphere is really nice and the service is great.

Went here for my birthday and there was amazing food and service! Bathrooms are clean and fancy. Best Japanese food I've ever had, especially the sushi (I had the Godzilla roll)! The miso soup and hot tea were both the best I've ever had and were both the perfect temperature. And the rice was very good. I was served with free green tea cheesecake for my birthday and I have to say, it was the best cheesecake I've ever had. Definitely coming back here!!! 100% recommend

I travel for work every week and have to come to the area for the work I perform at nearby Beale AFB. I usually stay at the Residence Inn, however it was booked. I arrived Tuesday March 12th at about 430pm and was lookig for a good meal since I only had breakfast. I found this restaurant after a quick search and found out it was open recently as it was not there last time I visited. I sat at the sushi bar. Ordered hot green tea, my go to to relax me after my flight and drive from Sacramento airport. I then ordered the shashimi appetizer which was blue fin, golden salmon and pepperfin tuna. Excellent presentation and umami. I then ordered the spicy Gyunika ramen. The flavor of the soy broth and thin noodles made my day. The tender short rib and soft boiled egg were fantastic. The entire bowl was amazing. I then ordered the Ankimo, monkfish liver or the foie gras of the sea. The smooth texture, crisp cucumber, roe, and fig made this 5 portion plate well worth it. Dont think of the word liver when ordering and enjoy the plating and fantastic umami. I finished with yuzu cheescake and the soft creamy texture and chocolate was perfect way to end my meal, along with another cup of green tea. I decided that I would be back the next day Wednesday for more. I went back on the next day for dinner again and sat at the bar. This time I ordered the Seared Tuna Tataki, Unagi Don and green tea cheesecake. I again ordered a hot green tea, my go to even at home after a long day. The seared Tuna melts in your mouth and has very good flavor. I enjoyed every bite. I then ordered the Unagi Don, fresh water eel over sushi rice. It was amazing. The eel sauce and bbq eel were perfect and the extra sauce dripping into the rice made it even better. Finishing off with the green tea cheese cake and tea. I checked my schedule and I will be back in June for a week, can't wait to try more on the menu next time I am in town. As someone that travels 80% of every month all over the country and world I typically only eat Asian style foods when travelling; it is lighter , fresher and typically quieter in their restuarants. This is important for someone on the road like me all the time. Fantastic food and customer service.
