    I'll have to try the outside tables sometime
    Jennifer B.

    Why, oh why, did I wait so long to come back?! It was time for another delicious piece of the rock. (Those of us of a certain age are now humming the old Prudential Insurance commercial) Admittedly, it's been a couple years since we've been here. They've painted outside and in, but it's still cozy and has the "local favorite feeling"... and we somehow ended up in the same booth. It was a Thursday afternoon, between lunch and dinner, so it wasn't busy. The plan was simple: thin crust pepperoni and that amazing Marty's salad. It's heavenly-and huge!!! (I wish I could say I had leftovers for days, but I couldn't leave it alone once I got home!) I really enjoy this place: service is personable and prompt, the food is excellent, everything is so clean, casual and welcoming inside. I need to become a regular. It's conveniently located near Brandon hospital, with a parking lot right out front. Somehow, we've always been here at "off" times of day-but I'll bet it's super busy on weekend nights. It should be! This place is gooood. Hope to see you there!

    Garlic bread with hardly any cheese! Ripoff!
    Mark M.

    Pizza had a nice crispy crust but too much spicy pepperoni and not enough cheese. The garlic bread was on a good chewy bun it was too garlicy and they hardly buy any cheese on top (see picture). These guys cut corners with the lack of cheese. Not nice for paying premium prices for their items.

    Pizza Arugula Bianca

    Looking for pizzerias in the Brandon area, we wanted to try something new, and the reviews convinced us to give this place a shot. We don't regret it! We ordered the Arugula Bianca pizza, and it was delicious: thin, crispy crust with a flavor just as we had imagined. We opted for takeout, and both the process and the service were excellent. We also tried the cheesy bread... wow, wow, wow! It was amazing. We'll definitely be coming back for more!

    Marty's Original Italian Chopped Salad

    The Don was outstanding, along with the chopped salad. Our waiter,( forgot his name) was also outstanding. Ambiance was perfect for us as we watched some of the Bucs game. A quiet small jewel.

    The food and service at Pizza Rock were awesome. We were seated immediately and ordered two appetizers. The boneless buffalo wings and garlic bread were delicious. Lastly, the pizza came out hot and was enough for 4 people to share.

    This place was really yummy but the only reason I wouldn't give it a 5 star is because it was super loud in there.

But once checked in everything went well. We were a party of 13 after the Gasparilla Children's Parade. We were starving so no pictures.

I had the the linguine carbonara, it was one of the best I've had, the pasta was crunchy cooked right, nice amount of pancetta, really top notch. We had 6 children with us, that had salmon, spaghetti and meatballs and the pizza. They all were teenager and preteen approved. The chicken parm and gnocchi bolognese were nice portions and the chicken was pounded thin and crispy with just the right amount of sauce and cheese. The bolognese was savory and a touch sweet. Truly the meals were wonderful. They are only beer and wine, and both are limited choices. We had the limoncello cake and chocolate mousse cake, they were just the right amount.

This restaurant is only open on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 5-10pm. I have no idea how they make it. Now, the inside is super duper tiny. The second you walk in you almost run over the hostess stand. Then, there's maybe 10 tables inside. Up first they bring you free bread. The bread isn't homemade, and tastes like the same bread you can get at a thousand other Italian restaurants. I tried the $8.50 bruschetta. It is a monster portion. However, it's just regular bread with regular tomatoes on top. No special spices, no special ingredients. Very plain and boring. For my entree, I had half Linguine al Pesto and half Penne alla Rustica. Oooooof again. The linguine pesto was watery. I could barely even taste the pesto. It was like swallowing wet noodles plain. Maybe the worst pesto dish I've ever had, and I love pesto. The penne was better, but once again it didn't taste any different that one you'd order from Fazoli's. Overall, underwhelming. The pasta tastes straight out of a box from Publix. No cocktails here. The only positive is that portion sizes are huge. I think a half size is plenty for most people. Also, there is some good people watching if you can sit at a table in the window. I won't be back.
