What a place! Had a fantastic start to a trip away by randomly stopping in Ripley for a night. The food here was gorgeous, finest Turkish kebabs with an array of different specials available. Good choice of hot and cold starters as well, and massive portions, but a good willingness to provide a doggy bag! Staff were excellent, all so friendly and attentive. The hosts were excellent, and everyone in the place, staff and customers, looked so happy to be there! This place is well worth stopping by if you are in the area, but make sure you book a table, it's popular!

It's rare to find a restaurant where everything just delivers above your expectations whilst also knowing its own strengths so well it will surprise you and possibly cause you to reassess them. Popping in from the murky high street you can just escape for a little bit and try Turkish cuisine that makes you say 'wow' outloud. The flavours are amazing... well I think so. Also, it is quite a reasonable price especially with the midday offer and the dishes are plentiful without overfacing you. The dining premises are very clean and pass close up inspection for a fussy diner, the atmosphere chilled, the service is simple and courteous, unrushed, and it is all delivered with pride. Food is cooked and presented very very well, tastes very fresh, and with the added bonus of complimemtary Turkish tea I think it's great.

If I was single I would just eat here every other day (it will take 48 hours for you to become hungry again!) Service is exceptional, little bowl of olives arrived at the table within moments of being seated, menu is full of fantastic looking stuff so we dove in, accompanying the food was a huge bowl of fantastic salad and some really nice flatbread so be aware, you will have tons to go at! The food itself was faultless, fresh and fairly healthy, the owner (I assume) personally came over to make sure we were happy which was a great touch, the value cannot be overstated, the amount of quality food presented was fabulous! See you again soon!

We are impressed! We came for the third time last night and I loved it every time. The food is excellent - this is not another Doner Kebab house but a proper nice sit-down meal. I tried most of the starters by now and I can’t even tell which one is my favourite, they are all so good. All the mains we have had so far have been excellent too. The staff is amazing and always make us feel welcome and valued. I will be a regular here!

The Rokaa restaurant offers a good selection of traditional Turkish meals that range from fish , to meat & various salad options , plus the classic Turkish style breads that are all prepared & cooked fresh to order upon your visit . The restaurant has an open view galley kitchen & you can see the Rokaa chef team working away making a real Turkish delight for your dining experience here @ the Rokaa . The food served is well presented & is a feast for the eyes as well as for the table ! & Is served by polite & friendly staff . The portion sizes here are very generous in my opinion & quite filling , so it's a good place to dine for those with a healthy appetite . The restaurant is also fully licensed to serve alcoholic drinks , so you can have a Turkish beer , raki or wine to accompany your meal , or perhaps even have a Turkish tea ! Which upon my visit was very light & floral , with a slight rose aftertaste & was most pleasant . The prices here are mid range & considering portion sizes & the quality of service , plus it's upmarket approach to the decor & interior design it offers an excellent value for money drinks & dining experience for the customer . The vibe of the Rokaa is cosy & intimate & has some vintage inspired low glow lighting features & some Turkish & middle eastern kilim inspired decor plus a wine inspired art feature that may inspire your drink selection for the table . Lastly but not least upon my visit the restaurant was cleaned to an exceptionally high standard in all areas & as before mentioned the cooking station is open plan so you can see they have a very high standard for hygiene . A must place visit for those who enjoy Turkish cuisine & good levels of service in pleasant surroundings can only recommend .

Amazing! Worth driving over an hour for. This is proper authentic Turkish cuisine. Management and staff are so welcoming and so lovely. The food is perfect! I don't even live no where near Derby but I will definitely visit again!

Absolutely lovely tasty food and lots of it, brilliant service, fab prices! Nice decor, friendly staff.

My wife and I visited Rokaa for dinner in a Friday evening. The atmosphere was great, decor lovely too. The owner came over and had a chat with us. I think he noticed it was our first time and he wanted to say hello. He mingled amongst diners all night and was a friendly nice guy. The food was cooked really well and priced well too. Service was quick and efficient. An all round great evening which left my wife and I happy that we tried this place out. Will definitely return
