What a great little place. Very friendly staff… Lucas was so sweet with my 4 year old & it’s obvious they are like that with all kids when u see the wall of “art” they have hung up that are colored by children. The bread before the meal was a nice touch & even had warm oil which was very good. I can’t speak for much of the food since all we got was one pizza but it was good. Cooked to perfection. I’d prefer a little more fresh basil & fresher tomatoes on the margarita pizza but my son enjoyed his half very much which was just cheese haha. I believe the owner came out & spoke to us which is always nice to see. The live entertainment musician even came over & chatted with us. Everyone we interacted with was so so sweet & friendly. We will definitely be back!

The environment was great, the chicken Alfredo was delicious- probably in my top 3 list. What knocks my review down to 3 stars was the cold bread. With such a nice aesthetic and live music I was expecting a premium experience. The bread did not give me that experience. However the server volunteered to warm the bread for us which is the reason why I gave this place 4 stars instead of 3. We ordered wine and received less than half a glass which felt like a waste of money. However The server was absolutely 10/10. We were helped by Jade and she was absolutely the biggest reason why we will be coming back. She was attentive, personable, and ready to help us with anything we needed. All in all it’s a nice place to dine.

One of the best parts of being here was our server Asian. She was friendly and gave us the space we needed to visit with our group of friends after our Edger Allen Poe Speakeasy night out. I will definitely recommend this place and to ask for Asia.

First time there and it won’t be our last! This place has excellent door. The entire staff is very welcoming. Our waiter Lucas was very attentive and gave us excellent service. We sat at the bar for a cocktail prior to our reservation. Only one bartender serving those at the bar and those dining at tables. Thought they could use another set of hands but the bartender was in good spirits and she handles the situation excellently. Had live music while we ate which was a very nice touch. It took us a very long time to find an authentic Italian restaurant. Being from NJ places around here were not even close to what we have been use to! So glad we gave it a try and now we have a go to Italian restaurant !
Went to Roccos,first time ever!!! Met the most beautiful young bar maid. Kirsten, she is just the nicest girl. From the second I sat down I knew she liked me. Had a blast come see Kirsten and asia. Made friends with other customers! We're having such a good time. Come show Roccos some love <3

I order the top sirloin steak and it came with risotto and broccoli. The steak was tender and delicious. The risotto was perfectly seasoned and the broccoli was perfectly cooked. My Husband had chicken cordon Bleu with risotto and broccoli. He liked it very much. The music was pleasant. The service was awesome. This will be our go to restaurant for sure.

Found this place by accident. While visiting our nephew at IMG Academy, I notice this restaurant down the street. I was in the mood for Italian and this place did not disappoint. The food was excellent. I had lobster ravioli and I am telling you it was stuffed with lobster. My husband had spaghetti and meatballs and the sauce, we were told, is made daily. Again excellent. Shout out to Lucas, our waiter, very attentive. The owner came over to welcome us to her place and also served our food. It was enjoyable talking to her. Had a little entertainment by a talented violinist, also. We live in St Pete, but we are certainly going to make the road trip again! So worth it!

I came across Rocco Italian in Bradenton by accident, and very grateful to have found a very good Italian meatball sub. Mazzaro's in St Pete you have competition!

Great place to eat! Definitely great portion sizes we left with a whole meal to eat later. So worth the visit. Our server Madison was so sweet and helpful - would recommend again!
