2nd time in a month dining here and it was exceptionally perfect! The Fall/Winter menu needs to be permanent though. The sea bass with Cajun shrimp is amazing. The rum/pineapple cocktail is my absolute favorite PLEASE add that to your regular menu as well! Service was excellent and quality of food was top notch!

We booked our New Year’s Eve dinner and we were seated approximately 10 minutes after arrival. Our server was very knowledgeable of the food and drink options. Their cocktail menu and wine menu is extensive. Of course they specialize in whiskey and it was very good. My wife ordered the beef stroganoff, and I ordered the Rokka burger. I thought the burger was delicious and unique. Her beef stroganoff was a bit shy on the beef but tasty. Lovely ambience. Just what a classy restaurant should look like!

We had a reservation for 3 and we were sat down right away. The food was excellent… I had the steak sandwich (not what it’s called but you get the gist). The meat was tender, the bread was soft- it was delicious. The sweet potato fries were tasty too. The drinks were strong… just like you’d want them to be. It was my second time there and it was consistent with the first time I went. I’ll definitely be back and I’d definitely recommend this place.

I had the holiday special Sea Bass with Cajun shrimp. It was truly spectacular! My cousin had the salmon and she said it was the best salmon she had ever had. We also shared the holiday dessert, milk cake cinnamon crunch…..it was good but a little too sweet. Overall, the service and food were amazing!

the sax player was a nice touch. My chilean sea bass was dry and overcooked and the sauce that came with it was thick and gravy like which shouldn’t be. My wife ordered the special which was filet and coconut shrimp with risotto. The filet was good and nice and tender but the meal didn’t go together. Guess it was our fault for picking it. I ordered an old fashion which was good but pricey ($25). My wife had a couple glasses of the austin hope cab. I think this place is a good spot to stop and have a few drinks if you are looking for a good whiskey selection
