What People Are Saying About Sushi Roku
The Owner
Sushi Roku
Owner
Located in beautiful Old Town Pasadena. Our chefs prepare innovative small dishes out of succulent, sliced hunks of raw fish. The scallop dynamite is tender and sweet--one of the best in town--and the rich black cod is a perfect counterbalance to the more delicate sashimi dishes. Try any sashimi appetizer, such as salmon or bonito, with tangy garlic ponzu sauce and jalapeno tempura. We have daily sushi specials that usually include rarer and more expensive Japanese imports such as ishi-tai (black tail snapper), sayori (half beak) and kohada (gizzard shad).

The Scene – Sushi Roku is worth visiting, if only for the fabulous setting. Designer Dodd Mitchell created an exhilarating space that combines soothing materials and sleight-of-hand lighting. Spotlights bounce off dark wood, fashioning a warm and flattering aura, while back-lit palms and waterfalls add a haunting effect. In the middle of the room is a startling mini-Stonehenge, a cluster of massive boulders standing upright as rivulets of illuminated water swirl around them. – – The Food – Ebullient sushi chefs consistently titillate with unexpected combinations,…

no big deal
by diGitAL9 at Citysearch
If you like Sushi... No! I mean really like Sushi, then this place isn't no big deal unless you are trying to impress a girl that doesn't know any better. Make sure she glances at the check, she might ...you know. Anyway, the food might look pretty but it's not that great.
- Pros: the place look cool
- Cons: the food didn't taste good, and was very very slim

I Hear This Place Is Great
by Romano at Citysearch
I have heard this place is really good, but I haven't actually been there personally. I hope to go some day and enjoy all the food people speak so highly of.

Bad Service
by teddychick at Citysearch
The lounge area is very nice but the service there is terrible. I went with my boyfriend and the waitresses are always dressed provocatively. This last time I was there the girl kept bending over in front of him showing her cleavage. Every time she would come to our table she would bend over and do this. The other girl was wearing a dress so short that I could see things I did not want to see as she was cleaning the tables. This is very uncomfortable as I am trying to have dinner with my boyfriend.
- Pros: very good area
- Cons: bad service
