| - I recently moved to the area. I've been looking for some local places to eat and happened upon this restaurant. I walked in and there were two women sitting at the bar chatting with what seemed to be the husband of the partners in crime. I was quickly greeted and seated, as the closed 20 minutes after my arrival. (My bad!)
I was given a menu and informed of the drinks offered at the establishment. After the waitress/cook, or the wife, filled me in on their well-known family recipe based onion rings, I ordered a Coke. I decided on a half dozen, medium chicken wings, a personal pepperoni pizza, and a quarter order of onion rings.
The first thing to come out was the onion rings. My tongue did not agree with my eyes. The rings were greasy, and lacked the typical onion ring flavor. They did use quality onions for the innards, but everything else was less than satisfactory. I could tell they tried, but their effort was not enough.
Next, the chicken wings. Tasting the sauce, it was the perfect combination of tang and heat. It reminded me of the perfect buffalo sauce. The chicken they used was wonderful. It was juicy and well cooked. I usually prefer the "well-done" chicken, but this was still worth ordering. The problem I had was when the two, the sauce and chicken, came together. It seemed like there were things attached to the wings that weren't supposed to be there. Like bits of grease or something. It was discouraging.
Finally, the pizza. It looked good when it came out on the tray. She had said that their pizza was a homemade thin crust dough. It tasted and looked like it. It was wonderful. They did, however, cook it on top of some kind of flour base and it stuck to the bottom of the pizza. It ruined it for me. The pepperoni was thinly cut, and didn't seem like it was from a Hormel package. The cheese was cheese.
Having covered everything else, this leads us to the sauce. I was both pleased and disappointed. (Surprise!) it was a pizza sauce, and it was good. But I was expecting more for a homemade sauce. Overall, I tasted a bit of beer and some tomatoes. Not much more.
For the drink, 1/2 lb. of medium wings, 1/4 order of onion rings, and personal pizza with one topping, I paid $13.00 plus some tax. Not too bad of a price, for good food.
Overall, Rochelli's is a good Pizza place. I wouldn't drive across the valley for it, but if I were in the area, it would definitely be on my list. Check it out!
