It can get pretty heavy if you order a set meal, so if you want to go light, definitely look into a la carte. Anyway, I had Katsu-don and really enjoyed it. It was very similar to something you would get in a nice US restaurant (not that this makes it authentic), but it worked for me. My wife got more traditional sushi rolls and also had good things to say. If you're looking for something non-italian in Rome, give it a shot.

I first came here when I visited Rome 2 years ago when I had been in Italy for 4 weeks, and wanted…read moreto try something else besides Italian food... and I'm really glad I came upon this place. I liked it enough that when I visited again a few weeks ago, I went back and had yet again another pleasant experience. The service was great: attentive, very friendly and helpful, and made me feel comfortable. The food is great too, probably some of the best Japanese food I've ever had. And the prices are very reasonable in my opinion, compared to what you'd be paying everywhere else in Rome (for the most part). Also the ambiance I'm a fan of: the décor and design in there is so nice! This place is a high-recommend from me - if you want to try some really great Japanese food in Rome, Taki is the best place to go.

After reading several reviews on Yelp, we decided to give Rokko a try. The owner was very…read morefriendly. She speaks fluent English, Japanese, and Italian. We went on a Monday evening. It was one of the rare sushi places that was actually open on Monday. It was also quite warm in the restaurant. Admittedly, we were in Rome during a major heat wave, so maybe their A/C just didn't have the power to keep up. As far as the rolls go, they had the typical sushi rolls that you find in most sushi restaurants. It tasted fresh and was pretty good basic sushi rolls. Maybe it's me or maybe my sushi has become to "americanized", but I like places that have specialty rolls. I like the ones that have spicy mayo sauce, or smelt roe, or avocado slices on top, or tuna/salmon on top, or spicy pepper, or etc etc etc. In my opinion, Rokko was simply basic sushi. Don't get me wrong. It was good, just basic. Bottom line - Open on Monday (at least during the summer months). Good but basic sushi. I wanted more variety in the rolls. Personally, if I want sushi the next time I'm in Rome, I may try a different place first simply to see if they have better variety. If you do decide to try Rokko, I think you'll be treated well by the staff. They're friendly. Bon appétit.

We had eaten at the other restaurant near the Colosseum and it was equally as good. This restaurant has multiple floors, all accessed by spiral staircases. It is really a beautiful layout, but look closely for the restaurant as you're walking by since there is no big sign, just the sign on the door. Any of their sushi rolls are great, but I would recommend the tempura and the Mexican sushi roll. If I could give 10 stars I would! Perfect for when you are a little *sick* of eating Italian food!

I wanted to give this resto a better rating but I just couldn't. Sunday night dinner for 5, and we…read morewere rated immediately. But that was probably the only thing that was immediate. We were given menus, utensils, and still water pretty quick too, and our order was taken in a good amount of time for us to look over the menu. But then it just got slow when the restaurant got pretty busy. It's a small place, and there were probably 6 other parties dining with 2 groups seating after us. We ordered 3 sushi dishes, and they came out in good time. But the server didn't give us ginger, wasabi, or soy sauce, and it was hard to get the 2 servers attention for a good few minutes. I actually had to make eye contact with the sushi chef who could tell we needed something, and I had to ask him for the ginger. Luckily we were seated close to the door where the cooking happens, so it wasn't an issue. The rest of our dinner came out in good time, and the food was good. Cooked really well and tasteful. But then it was time to get more water and the check, and again there was a good wait time when we wanted to just get water and leave. The 2 servers were just busy, and I guess couldn't handle the attention to the tables. Food great, vine fun, service just needs work on.

This was probably one of our favorite finds! We happened to arrive a half hour after they had opened for dinner with no reservation. We were seated immediately. We sat at a traditional Japanese style table which was incredibly refreshing to be able to stretch out and relax after a long days of walking around the city. We ordered a small bottle of wine, edamame to start, they brought out a small salad, split a roll of sushi, I ordered chicken yakitori and my boyfriend ordered a noodle dish with seafood. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious! By the time we were finishing up the place was completely full of guests. Our server was very helpful and pleasant. We would definitely go back!

It was also our only non Italian meal in Italy. The place was modern and decorated pretty nicely. Lots of locals eating sushi here. The server didn't seem to understand Japanese and it sounded like the owners/cooks were speaking mandarin. We ordered the unagi don - good flavors, a bit different from what I'm use to in terms of unagi sauce - but it was flavored well and the rice and unagi was cooked well. We also shared the tempura udon and it was fantastic. Good broth, noodles were cooked well and good portion size. The broth only came with seaweed and noodles but they make up for it with a plate full of tempura shrimp, sweet potatoes and veggies! We had one order of sake nigiri and one order of Toro. The sake was good - small slices but tasted as it should. The Toro didn't look/taste like fatty tuna Belly at all. It was definitely just normal Tuna and tasted a bit off. They tried to charge us for two orders of each but we only received one so check your bill if you don't get something! Overall, a good Asian fix in Italy!

While in Rome, my husband and I wanted something other than Italian food, just to change things up…read more They do take reservations, but we didn't have one. They still were able to seat us immediately. This was probably because we went around 7:30pm, which seems early for dinner in Italy. The prices were pretty expensive for what you get. Our bill would have been probably half of what we paid in the US. One sushi roll was 20€. We're on vacation and the location was convenient, so we didn't care much. The restaurant itself is modern and clean. Low lighting and not too loud. The menu was not in English so we were a little intimidated at first. The server was extremely nice about it. We explained we were having a hard time deciding because we were struggling with our Italian reading skills. He was patient and asked what we were looking for and made great suggestions. While our appetizer and sushi came out in a reasonable amount of time, it did take a while to get our entree. We weren't in a hurry and were enjoying our wine. It took a bit to catch the attention of the server when we were finished to get the bill also. We've found this pretty typical during our time in Florence and Rome, so it's possibly a cultural difference from the US. Overall, great! We would eat there again.

I have been to this amazing sushi restaurant quite a few times this summer in Rome. The best thing…read moreis that each time it simply kept getting better and better! You have various options here to eat, there is the Kaiten (conveyor belt with many different plates ready to eat) this is the best option especially if you want a quick meal or have a movie to go watch at the nearby cinema. Otherwise there are regular tables, or the tatami, a special japanese room where you eat like in Japan and is ideal for private parties. Than there are about 12 seats at the teppanyaki, which is the japanese style grill where an extremely knowledgeable and experienced chef cooks extremely good dishes but is entertaining at the same time! This is one of the best I've ever been to and I've traveled pretty much all around the world. The sushi has an "italian" approach to it, since all the ingredients and food is locally grown therefore it is always fresh and delicious. They also make extremely good "american style" rolls that are very good too! A must try for sushi & sashimi lovers are the Gunkan, a rice ball wrapped in fish (usually tuna or salmon) or avocado with a fish tartar on top, that if asked will be mixed with flying fish eggs and spicy mayo! Delicious! A must try when in downtown Rome, 10 min walk from the Vatican!

So after almost 2 weeks in Europe and eating a lot of carbs and meat, I was really missing clean…read morefood and asian food. As crazy as it sounds, for our last meal in Europe, and in Rome for that fact, we opted for sushi. We chose Daruma as it was 5 minutes from our B&B and throughout the past few days we walked by it a number of times, and each time it was busy. So why not. Out of pure chance and coincidence we dined on a Sunday night, which is a special night. Every Sunday at the Kaiten (revolving sushi belt) the dishes are yellow and each dish is 3 euros. Which is a STEAL if you look at the rest of the menu. Yes the sushi on the Kaiten is limited, because they can't really afford to put the good stuff out. Still it wasn't bad. We did notice that a lot of the plates were salmon. Either the Italians LOVE their salmon (which appeared to be the case to the diners across from us) or salmon is really cheap. Once the Kaiten starts, all the dishes load up and the belt is full and at max capacity. I would say out of 10 dishes, 8 were salmon. If you really liked salmon, I recommend the one in sashimi. It was more fresh and had that fattiness that sashimi salmon has. I would stay away from anything that has avocado. As a California native who has definitely eaten my weight in all forms of sushi, the avocado SUCKED. It wasn't ripe and it was missing the creaminess that is avocado. I would also wait from ordering edamame which on the menu is 4 euros, when you can only pay 3 euros. Overall, it wasn't the greatest sushi place I've ever been to. For Rome standards it probably was better than mediocre? I'm not sure how european's do asian food...It's definitely not authentic here. If you are a true sushi lover like me, and you are an adventurous eater, this is not the place for you. However, if you're craving and want something clean apart from pasta, come on a Sunday night, your wallet will thank you. PS: again, no tap water. Only still or sparkling, and of course you had to pay for it.
