Sushi Roku combines the finest, freshest fish from pristine waters around the globe with the kind of artistry that can only be provided by a mature sushi chef ensuring superlative traditional sushi, together with a splash of California innovation. Sushi Roku is a pioneer of contemporary sushi, incorporating diverse, non-traditional ingredients from Latin America (e.g. jalapeños) and Europe (e.g. olive oil) into its edible works of art. This unique culinary experience that bridges past and present is the result of an eagerness to embrace new ideas and a profound respect for tradition. Sushi Roku’s bold and diverse menu also offers an array of hot and cold specialty appetizers and an extensive selection of exotic entrées.

    Server was awesome, quality of food was excellent, gluten free options for rolls. Noise level was super loud with music too loud for talking to our friends. White wine was not chilled. Otherwise, great quality.
    Sushi Roku - PasadenaResponded on 13 December 2024
    Thank you for dining with us and sharing your positive comments regarding our food as well as your constructive feedback regarding how we can improve. I am incredibly sorry that the music level was too loud. We will make sure to monitor that moving forward.

    The service could have been better. I was there on business & mid conversation the waitress asked us to cash her out because she was being sent home by her manager.

    Dear Aaron, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of your experience. We appreciate all feedback, as it helps us to improve our service and provide a better dining experience for our guests. We are very sorry to hear that you had a negative experience with our service. It is unacceptable for our staff to ask guests to cash them out during a meal, and we have taken steps to ensure that this does not happen ever again. We would love to host you again. -Sushi Roku Pasadena Management

    Sushi Roku in Pasadena has been a popular spot for sushi lovers, and during my recent visit, I found out why. The food, especially the miso soup, was delightful, rich, flavorful, and served at just the right temperature. It was a comforting start to the meal, setting a positive tone for the afternoon. The sushi itself was impressive, too, fresh and beautifully presented. I particularly appreciated their flexibility in customizing orders using soy paper, which added a unique twist to our dishes. However, while the food was top-notch, our experience was marred by a regrettable incident involving the staff. As my aunt entered the ladies' room, she was confronted by the manager, who inappropriately pointed her toward the men's room, citing that the ladies' room was for women. While my aunt understands that she may present in a way that confuses people, the comment came across as rude and unnecessary. It left her feeling humiliated, and unfortunately, this incident overshadowed the rest of our experience. While the service was generally okay, this specific moment had a ripple effect on the rest of our afternoon — we all left feeling less than satisfied despite the excellent food. It’s disappointing when a restaurant known for its culinary offerings falls short in the hospitality department. Sushi Roku has the potential to be a fantastic dining experience. Still, they need to ensure their staff is trained to treat every customer with respect and dignity, regardless of how they might present.
    Sushi Roku - PasadenaResponded on 14 November 2024
    We sincerely apologize for the unfortunate incident involving the manager & your aunt. This experience is unacceptable & does not reflect the values of our restaurant. We have taken immediate action to address this matter internally & I assure you that all our staff members are properly trained to treat every customer with respect & dignity. We would like to make things right & invite you to contact the restaurant & ask for the General Manager to discuss your experience further. Thank you
