I came here a month ago, and ordered the Mediterranean Pasta from the specials menu. It was absolutely amazing, and the fresh feta was the cherry on top! I had it again tonight…my new favorite. It wasn’t on the specials menu anymore but the staff was extra accommodating and was able to make it anyway! My server was a young guy - very personable, fast with our requests, and made sure we were satisfied. This place is Manchester’s hidden gem…

I’ve been going to Rocco’s for years now. It’s one of our go-to restaurants on Saturday nights. My favorite dishes included veal parm, which is consistently great, as well as the NY Strip Steak, which is very reasonably priced for such a quality steak.The crab cake appetizers are superb. I recently had the clam chowder for a soup and thought it was one of the better clam chowders I’ve had lately.The service is always great. Speedy and attentive. The staff is friendly and make sure you have everything you need.I highly recommend Rocco’s for those in the Manchester area!

We were seated right away. Server was polite and quick to respond. The Rachel with onion rings was very good. Chicken parm with ziti and ravioli were also excellent.

Chowder terrible! Fish and chips, fish way over done!! ? Crew young and inexperienced!!

I ordered a chicken cutlet grinder. It's was old chicken and hard(not tough). Then they over cooked it with almost no mayo on it. So dry I couldn't swallow anymore. So very disappointing and NOT inexpensive! NEVER AGAIN!

My wife and I visited maybe 8 weeks ago, we sat outside on a beautiful night.. the 1st ones outside, so we felt a little bad for our server, Ari, who was Fantstic, treats you like long lost family. Food is very good, and great value too.. even list of specials, all reasonably priced, and include soup or salad. Not many do that anymore. Visited again tonight, and Ari is there again... turns out he is the owner! And I shouldn't say it, but he always is throwing in something extra on the house, whether fresh baked mini loaf of bread, something tht leaves you saying, wow!! You'll have to come and see for yourself! It's cozy inside too, but we again were the only outdoor diners on anorther perfect night w Al fresco!=) we keep.leaving saying... we'll be back!Parking: Often, can park right out front, but plenty in back too

As a seasoned bartender, the second a guest walks through the door you do everything you can to make them feel welcome and provide excellent service in order to get that big tip. I always tip 50%, the server seemed to care more about getting side work done than rather than working for a tip. I average $15,000 a night in the weekends in liquor sales by providing quick and excellent service. I waited a bit longer than a person should in an empty restaurant to look over the menu, wait a few minutes for her to remember I was there, drop the silverware and come take my drink order, I knew it would take longer to get food since she didn't know how to open a beer bottle. After i tipped her $5 for a $5 beer, she said have a nice day and I never saw her again. P.s Thanks! to the creepy cook staring at me though the window, he then ran to the server as I was leaving to make sure I paid. Don't know if it was the color of my skin that made him think I can't pay, but I went out to celebrate the sale of my first home down the street from roccos and ended up at another restaurant that respects their customers and wants return service. I hope she's at least tips or serve safe certified. Going through the reviews, it's obvious the owner doesn't care, no responses, no apology comments. Apparently good enough is the goal

We ordered to go. Pick up was ok, waitress was not there to do her job. Maybe she was having a bad day, but really....Pizza was ok, not enough toppings.The onion rings and boneless chicken was very good.Maybe we will be back?Price was fair for what we ordered.

Rocco’s was so accommodating to our large group (22) Very friendly and welcoming. We were on a pub crawl and this was our first stop.. what a great time had by all .. the drinks were AWESOME! Although we didn’t eat at that time, we have in the past and never been disappointed.
I visited here this evening 14/2/23 Omg how can a place of changed so much? It was empty so not a mad rush to get things wrong …: well how wrong was i to think that 1….. The lad who served us needs to go to manner school absolutely rude !! 2…. Messed up on our order - we asked for spicy wings obviously never heard us because he was too busy saying next next next with our order 3….. asked for a plain supreme burger apart from cheese - full of lettuce We used to really love the food here but to me its changed not sure why but maybe its time to go back to the original shop in Burnage? Obviously a different name Better attitude from this particular staff Member ? and better food?? Very disappointed Rocco’s please get back to what you was like before

I just finished a subpar meal, with lighting that was so dim , you could barely see the menu. The drinks are poorly made and absolutely not worth the price. The most disappointing part of this experience is when I received the bill. I ordered a chicken sandwich , price on the menu was 9.95, the bill reflected 15.95, pasta bowl 12.00 on the menu, the bill 19.99. I asked why this was and I wanted my bill adjusted to reflect the prices on the menu. I was told “the owner is getting new menus and the prices are not reflected correctly on the menu yet, but there is a small sticker on the front that says this” I did not see this sticker and why would I look for it. I was offered a piece of a cake in lieu of the correction. It was my first time eating there and my last. I highly discourage anyone from dining in this establishment and will spread the word. Horrible !!!!! Not a good way to run a business.
