I went here for the first time and I would definitely come back! You get started with some bread,…read morewhich was your basic sort of bread with garlic, it wasn't life changing but I was glad to have it! We then got fried mozzarella as an appetizer, which I was pretty disappointed in honestly, it was just cheese sticks and idk maybe that's on me and my expectations but I really would have thought it would have been a bit more elevated at an Italian restaurant. Next was my pasta, now I got the spaghetti carbonara and it wasn't like an carbonara I've ever had. Again maybe I don't know what spaghetti carbonara is and that's why I was disappointed so I put that on me. The pasta was... good enough for the price and then portion was HUGE. The truth is, this isn't an elevated Italian restaurant and more like a family Italian restaurant (nothing wrong with that, just not what I was expecting) They have a massive menu so I would come back now knowing what to expect

We will be back soon! You should definitely try it!

I had been hearing about this restaurant since I first started working in Terre Haute so I finally…read moredecided to try it. It was good. I am writing about a delivery, so I can't comment on the restaurant itself. I took a star off because they did not provide any utensils or napkins in the delivery bag which made for a delayed meal since I had to go searching for a fork. The garden salad was very good. So crisp and fresh. The tomatoes were yummy, and I liked the surprise of celery amoungst the greens. The greens were mixed and not just iceberg which elevated the salad quite a bit. I always say I judge an Italian restaurant by their sauce, and this one was ok. Very sweet. Not thick. It wanted for something. I ordered the half portion of angel hair pasta, and it was still a very generous amount. I added a meatball which tasted more like an Italian sausage in a ball with a bit of spice and a chewier consistency. I wasn't mad at it, but it wasn't the seasoned ground beef crumble I expected. All in all, the meal was good, just lacking in some of things I expected from a place everyone seemed to like about it. I would probably go back and maybe try some of the other dishes next time I am in Terre Haute, if only to see if maybe it was just that order.

At No time did a manager check on us, We had creme brulee which was a huge serving not individual. It took forever to come out. Service was poor! No manager? It will be awhile before we go back.

A coworker and I drove through Paris, Illinois and searched Yelp for options. We stumbled across…read moreRocky's Italian Bistro and both said we were very pleased with our lunch choice. The ambience is a mixture of a French restaurant meeting an Italian restaurant somehow looking like an American Diner with a menu that had a little of everything. Our server was very attentive even though the restaurant was full and she seemed to be the only server. She was delightful and gave us good recommendations. My coworker ordered a Caprese Panini and a Caesar salad. Obviously this wasn't my recommendation if you've read any of my other reviews! She said it was a great sandwich but wasn't a fan of the homemade chips. I was impressed that she didn't give me the stink eye when I explained my need to photograph her food :) I had the lunch portion of chicken parmesean that was really good. Nice portion of chicken and pasta and a great flavor - I would definitely order it again. Oddly, this came with a side of my choice just like the sandwich menu. I chose a side of fries and they were ok fries. Nothing Earth shattering but not bad. It's a great lunch option at a reasonable price and I'd return if I found myself in the area. Where else can I get a burger, a tenderloin, an order of onion rings and a fettuccine Alfredo all from the same place!?

The one caveat is that menu items off of the set menu can not just be ordered. For exampl, you cannot just order the arancini balls anymore-- which is one of my faves. This was a smidge disappointing if you don't want to order from the set menu portion. The regular menu has some options but not all that they used to. The food was good per usual just this change up threw us off!
