We used to be very frequent patrons of Rocco's, but after an unpleasant experience during our last visit two years ago, we have stayed away. We decided to try it again last night.
When we walked in, the place had a terrible smell that almost made us leave. It smelled like really bad cheese and/or fish. We all decided (hoped) that it must have been something they were cooking, and sat down anyway.
We were seated by the window. Part-way through our meal, we noticed that there were bugs crawling all over the windowsill beside us. Ewww...
Our appetizer of grilled shrimp cost $14, and there were only three smallish shrimp on the plate. Very overpriced. Thankfully our mains were all very tasty. No complaints. Service was great -- no complaints there, either.
They really need to shut this place down for a few days and give it a thorough scrubbing from top to bottom. It feels dirty and sticky ... not to mention the issue of the bugs and the smell.
Sorry, Rocco's! We really want to love you the way we used to! Nobody does chicken parm like you!
