"Canary Wharf is a usual favourite of mine but on this occasion, it was hugely disappointing. On a Saturday evening where the restaurant was not full but lively, I expected far more from the service. Not until we were served mains we were offered water. Our server messed up our sushi starter which then was brought out mid way through our mains which was not quite appetising for the palette. I’ve always loved the sushi at Roka but this felt rushed and really underwhelming. The sea-bream was fantastic I’ll give that. This was a birthday celebration and was not recognised as most celebrations are at any establishment. After being offered desserts no one came over again for almost 25minutes and we could not get the attention of anyone until we had to approach the staff. Was almost over charged for their error which was then rectified. This was really a saddening experience to say the least especially for a birthday."

"It’s always a pleasure to dine at Roka Aldwych. This occasion was exceptional special as my dear friend just got engaged. The food, atmosphere and staff were brilliant. The only reason why I marked down the food is because the portion size for the sushi rolls we ordered was very small and not the same quality as usual. That was disappointing. Everything else was great."

"Came as a party of 12 for the boozy brunch option. Your drink choices are limited to Prosecco and a **** Geisha cocktail. They also give you only 1.5 hours at the table and while the servers were friendly throughout, it was hard not to feel a little rushed. The Maki Rolls and Sashimi were of a decent quality considering you could order unlimited portions. The Salmon Terriyaki and Katsu Chicken Curry mains both went down well with the table. I'd r ecommend the restaurant for group bookings if the 1.5 hour window isn't a concern (in fairness, they allowed us to stay for another 30 mins without getting too arsey). CAUTION: the prosecco is light and goes down VERY easily."
