Roka Akor is a palindrome based on two Japanese words: “ro,” which means a sociable gathering place for eating and drinking and “ka,” which means heat, warmth or a burning fire. It’s the perfect name for a restaurant that makes the traditional Japanese robata grill its primary cooking source as well as the focal point of the room, radiating warmth, energy and a touch of Japanese tradition. The restaurant’s breath-taking decor conveys minimalism, combining natural materials such as wood, iron and rice paper with hand-crafted objets d’art to capture the rusticity and restraint that typify the Japanese aesthetic. The comfortable dining room, robatayaki bar and trendy lounge are inviting vignettes where people may gather for beautifully presented sushi, charcoal grilled meat and vegetable dishes (robotayaki) and inspired shochu-infused cocktails.
