“Some people think small-town dining means casual, so-so food. Not in Bisbee. Café Roka stands out with its rack of lamb and roasted quail entrees, and appetizers such as goat cheese-filled piquillo peppers with a balsamic glaze.”

“Pressure-fired bricks were relatively new in 1907, when Bisbee’s Costello Building was constructed. But thanks to those bricks, the Costello Building was spared from a fire that leveled much of the mining town in 1908. Now, 100 years later, the building houses Café Roka, a three-level, internationally inspired restaurant that’s been serving up some of Bisbee’s finest fare since chef owner Rod Kass moved into the Costello in 1993. Whether you’re a sucker for sweet-potato strudel or have a hankering for New Zealand rack of lamb, the café has something for everyone, including history buffs.”

“If ever a restaurant is worth a road trip, it’s Café Roka in Bisbee. Since 1992, chef Rod Kass has been producing beautifully balanced dinners from his tiny kitchen. Artfully plated dishes highlight colors, aromas, interwoven textures and clean flavors.”
