Rocco's Ristorante is a fantastic and amazing hidden gem in Pittsburgh, offering a definite must-go experience. The atmosphere cannot be spoken about enough, with an incredible ambience that features amazing details like chandeliers, wallpaper, and woodworking within a historic old mansion. The preservation of Italian family tradition is felt in each bite and sip.
The food is sublime and exactly what you hope for, placing it right at the top for Italian food in the city. Every dish feels professionally created. Standout items include the perfectly seasoned arancini, the tuscan pork chop with its creamy and delicious polenta, and the veal scarpariello with its excellent sauce. Other highlights are the best beans and greens, the gnocchi, the Caesar salad with grilled chicken, and appetizers like the burrata and pane e olio. The cannolis, with a little bit of citrus in the filling, are also a standout. The service is great, very friendly, professional, and passionate, with helpful suggestions for wine pairings and meals. It is an upcoming Pittsburgh classic worth the experience.
