Rokka Bar & Grill, Culcheth — Restaurant in England

There was a large group of us on this occasion and the food was amazing!

We had a sharing platter to start and I then had the haloumi skewers for main course. Both were perfect served and tasty. The starter could have had fewer dips and more sharing items to be critical, it seemed like the ratio wasn't quite right, we had a bread basket too so it evened out!

The atmosphere was amazing, its loud in here but not too loud. There was live music on with a singer nosy of the night, again it wasn't too loud which can sometimes be the case.

The service was the only fault this evening. Even though staff were polite the food was extremely slow to come out. We found out there had been an issue in the kitchen after highlighting the long delay. A better way to handle it may have been to apologise prior to us saying how long it had taken for our main courses to arrive. I think the drama in kitchen may have added to waiters not being as attentive either, we could have had so many more drinks if the ones we'd asked for arrived, or if we could have got the attention of staff sooner.

That said, you must go here! It's food and atmosphere far outweigh a one off food delay that we experienced that...

Embarrassed that I went here for my birthday and someone ended up paying for the food I openly disliked. (Though I sent it to them later)

Restaurant itself looks lovely, lots of choice on the menu. Had the hummus to start off - hummus itself was nice, chunky grilled bread that tastes good but was undercooked on the bottom, still ate it as it tasted good. Got the lamb sizzler as a main, lamb was cooked fine - though it hardly tasted grilled. No sort of 'fajita seasoning' to be found, still tasted fine... Would have been better on a roast or in a wrap of some kind with more to flavour it. Finished with the tiramisu. Couldn't taste anything but the chocolate sauce on it, the ice-cream had large ice crystals, left the majority of it.

Seems like they've almost got everything right but they just go wrong at the most important parts, a real shame.

The food itself was relatively slow for how many were in (not sure how long you'd expect on the meals we ordered) and the service was somewhat inattentive. Other tables seemed to be being woo'd by a male member of staff though, so seemed like they had...

The food was so good that we were stealing from each others plates! The mix grill incredibly generous. The starters were absolutely delicious. The filo feta cheese and spinach triangles were divine. My sister had the mushrooms (I polished off the sauce they came in), the cheesy garlic bread I could eat all day everyday and will not stop thinking about it until we go back again! I don’t usually eat doner lamb but was forced to try by the entire table and WOW!!! Melt in thy mouth!The staff are so friendly and kind making a positive and fun atmosphere. If you need a mood boost, go and eat here. We can’t wait to head back north just to have another Fantastic night at Rokka. Thank you all for a truly...
