I've heard good things about Rocco's NY pizza. But reading the reviews after the fact makes it a sad story. If all the Rocco's in Las Vegas are owned by different people then this makes Aliante's establishment the runt.
We stop in for a quick dinner, was not greeted when we walk in. The waitress sees us but just keeps staring without saying a word, we start walking toward her maybe she wants to help us? Nope. She walks right by us to the table just behind us!! Errr..Hello? She would have walked right through us if she could! Pizza was disgusting, it was as bland as cardboard and it broke into pieces...! I ordered a seafood pasta in white wine sauce (can't you tell I like to live dangerously?) The measure of a decent restaurant is how they handle their other items. This was a really bad idea what the hell was I thinking?! The sauce looked like homemade glue paste with calmari tentencles and some scallops that had seen better days. The worst part was the smell, it was so strong with the odor of way too much garlic, calamari and vinegar; our neighbouring tables wrinkled their noses in protest - had to cover it completely with red pepper flakes to mask the odor. Did I mention this was a REALLY bad idea?? I took a few bites in a daze, omg am I actually eating this here right now?? Incredibly it didn't taste bad, just BLAND, is that even possible? They are so bland that they can't even bring out the flavor of an obviously gross dish!
