Where it gets genuinely confusing is the happy hour: the restaurant's own website shows two different versions of it. One page describes a Monday-only 'Roka Hour' confined to the lounge; another official page describes a broader daily bar-and-patio happy hour running Monday evening and open-to-6pm the rest of the week. A third listing for the same address shows Mondays closed entirely, directly contradicting both.
Rather than guess which version is current, the honest move is to flag the conflict and recommend calling ahead before planning a happy-hour visit specifically. The food itself -- robata-grilled meats, composed sushi, a serious sake program -- isn't in dispute, just the exact hours you'd catch a discount on it.
