Rocca Ristorante always knocks it out of the park. The ambiance is lovely, the food is delicious, and their service is consistently top-notch. The San Francisco Bay Area has always prided itself on excellent service, and Rocca is one of those restaurants that has stayed true to this over the years. Kudos to their management!

I am the biggest fan of pasta Moon. The minute I walked in, I was greeted by a wonderful hostess. The ambience was wonderful great high ceilings the service unbelievable! Fabio and Luigi were so kind, I was treated so well. I had the pomegranate, persimmon salad. It was the best salad I’ve had in four years! The Ahi Tuna linguine was so delicious I was dancing in my chair! The pasta was homemade perfectly cooked. The Aji tuna was tender and delicious! it was the best meal I’ve had in so long. I am a huge fan. The pasta is fresh. I could eat it every day. I am definitely going come here once a month.
