I was really excited to try this place because it’s close to my house and I thought the vibe was cute! I was disappointed overall and would not recommend. Our server, Sonia, was awesome. Very attentive and professional. Wine was good, food was about 50/50. I got the bruschetta without really looking at the description (my bad). What came out was marinated tomatoes and oregano. Interesting… not the kind of bruschetta I am familiar with. They comped it after we spoke with the manager which was nice. Caesar salad was great. I got the Chicken piccata - it was bland and very oily. The Rocco’s Bolognese was good. So overall half good, half bad.

We had a great dinner at Saint Rocco’s. The appetizers and entrees were delicious. They also had many vines to choose from. Our server Rico was very attentive and made sure we had a great dining experience. I will definitely be back!

We chose Saint Rocco’s New York Italian as our dinner spot before the NYE fireworks, and it was the perfect choice.
The caprese salad was phenomenal—so fresh and authentic it instantly transported me back to Italy and brought back the sweetest memories. The lasagna was rich, comforting, and full of flavor, and the meatballs were seasoned to absolute perfection.
And let’s talk about the lemon drop martini—with that perfect sugar rim. Crisp, refreshing, and dangerously good. Absolute chef’s kiss.
Then came dessert… the Banana Nutter Pudding (which honestly should’ve been first). Creamy banana pudding with bourbon-caramelized bananas, peanut butter cookie, nut brittle, and whipped cream—pure indulgence and worth every single bite.
A huge shout-out to Thomas and Naomi, our bartender/servers, who truly made the experience one to remember. Attentive, friendly, and welcoming—service like theirs makes great food even better.
Amazing food, incredible service, cocktails done right, and the perfect way to kick off New Year’s Eve. I will definitely be back.

Cute spot. Nice view. Both the food and wine were very underwhelming. Truffle fries were soggy ( this was the first time I'd ever seen wet truffle fries). In my opinion it's a terrible idea to toss fries in sauce. The obvious outcome is soggy potatoes. I had the bolognese. Tasted like boxed pasta and jarred grocery store sauce. Lacked flavor. I also thought it was a bit odd that bread doesn't come with your pasta. As I started to eat I felt something was missing. It was bread. Never been to an Italian restaurant where bread isn't served with pasta. At this restaurant you have to order a separate side of bread. I did not do this because I didn't need an entire order of bread for just myself. The staff was super nice. I will say that. Overall I won't return and unfortunately I don't recommend either.

Just to clarify, the food was superb and amazing. HOWEVER, our waitress was a NIGHTMARE FROM HELL. Our waitress “Brooke” seemed cool at first but as time progressed she become more and more persistent/irritable. My boyfriend and I came here for a nice dinner at this Italian spot that was recommended from a family friend. We are young (18) but that doesn’t mean we are incompetent or “broke” for this establishment. She came to our table cool, calm, and collected. Even grabbing the drink menu for us in hopes that she could rack up our bill. We told her we were under age and her response was “Oh! I don’t even know why I’m giving y’all this” and then she walks away with the menus with a sort of sad look. After that we started to discuss the menu and I kid you not she asked us if we wanted appetizers 4 TIMES TOO MANY. Not to mention she doesn’t sound all too confident on the items on the menu (more so for recommendations). I told her that my pallet is pretty broad and im open to any of the pastas that’s on the menu. I just wanted her to tell me the house favorite or what her personal recommendation was. However, she couldn’t do that. Instead she chose to say that the SEAFOOD is pretty good. Basically once again trying to rack up our bill. I’m not saying we didn’t have any money. Trust me we wouldn’t be there if we didn’t. But for her to recommend that and then look to my boyfriend and say “what’s y'all's budget?” in rebuttal to my question of “what’s the house favorite for pasta?”. It only keeps getting worse from here. With all of her pushing for us to get an appetizer after we REPEATEDLY TOLD HER NO, she walks away with attitude and goes to her coworkers to discuss something. To wrap this up, by the time we got our food and she was putting the parmesan away, she comes to our table AS WE ARE PRAYING, she stops speaking, kneels on the ground, PUTS HER HAND ON TOP OF BOTH OF OUR HANDS AND STAYS THERE AS I FINISH MY PRAYER. WHAT A FREAKING NUISANCE. Earlier she also made a comment saying “don’t tip me under 15 dollars” and as she sees the look on our faces she covers it up by saying she’s just joking. At this point both my boyfriend and I are pissed and we really just wanna leave. Not to mention she brings the dessert menu and pushes us on that too until he finally told her that he just wanted the check. I’m not sure if that was her way of connecting with us because we are all black or if it’s her way of intimidating young individuals, but it wasn’t cute. She ruined our evening and hand the nerve to sit down at the table after she gives us the check. Bottom line… this waitress sucks and is a nuisance. Don’t fall victim to her pushiness because by the time you look at it, your bill is high and then she’s bound to get a GOOD tip. TALK SENSE BROOKE.
