    My friends and I decided to try this place after finding out Cantina Rooftop was closed. We sat on the outdoor patio, which was perfect with the nice weather. We started with the Brussels sprouts. They were crispy, flavorful, and topped with a pomegranate glaze that really completed the dish (so good that I forgot to take a picture!). I ordered the ribeye and was a little hesitant at first since it came with a side of steak sauce (I believe A1) as any steak lover knows, a good ribeye shouldn't need it. Thankfully, the steak was cooked perfectly, juicy, and flavorful, so I skipped the sauce altogether. They also had an excellent selection of bourbons, cocktails, and wines. My friends ordered pasta dishes and said they were very good. Overall, it's not a bad Italian option, but it wouldn't be my first choice if I were specifically looking for Italian food. Side note: this restaurant charges a 3% up charge to use a credit card- I'm just now noticing these things as it seemed a lot of places did in Florida while I was away. I don't recall in my past visits in Greenville but will be looking for this change going forward.

    We love going to bridgeway station and finally tried out restaurant Rocco for their happy hour. Service was great, the sommelier came to the table to talk about the wine list which was helpful in making decisions - they have half off bottles of wine during happy hour and we were able to try a really nice wine for a great price! We also shared half off appetizers which was a great deal and we left very full from just sharing lots of apps and no entrees. The cheese and charcuterie board was good and very generous portion. I loved the whipped Ricotta & goat cheese dip the most, so rich and delicious. The meatballs were pretty good, not my favorite I've had but the sauce was very good. I also tried the side Caesar salad and it was really good with the croutons crumbles - I also couldn't believe how large it was for a side! Overall we'd definitely return during happy hour as the deals on apps, drinks and wine are very good!

    We were so pleasantly surprised by this place. Everything we tried was great plus good service. Will be our new Italian go to! Small place, so fills up fast, would recommend a reservation.

    Last Thursday we ate at Rocco for a friend holiday party. The staff was so friendly, shout out to Anthony. Last night the family tried the cannoli hole. This is such a fun concept. We ordered the peppermint bark cannoli and the pistachio--soo good! Love the idea and it's so fun. We will be back.

    Ive been wanting to try Restaurant Roccos for a while. Finally did last night. My husband got the only reservation left for Saturday evening at 5.30pm. We arrived about 5 mins early and seated straight away. There were only a couple of other tables taken at the time. Amazingly within a few minutes the restaurant was full! It gets very loud when it is. You have to shout to be heard. Our server was great, very attentive . We ordered our drinks and cocktails. Thankfully the menu is not vast and has great Pasta and Steak options. We ordered Crab cakes and a Flatbread . Far too much unnecessary Arugula on the top, you couldn't see the flatbread. Crab cakes were bland but crispy. The flatbread needed a little more prosciutto on top. We ordered Chicken Parm ( strong tomato flavor) Chicken Marsala (lots of mushrooms) and a Milanese pasta dish ( two pieces of asparagus was the seasonal veg) Large portions of pasta. The chicken was like "sous vide" style so a little rubbery and not tender and stringy as you would expect for freshly cooked pieces of chicken. We had a side of fries which were soft not crispy. The garlic bread slice served with it is very buttery and garlicky. Would return again to try the steak options. When we got our check we noticed they charge you $5 for using a Credit Card!!! A little sneaky extra they don't tell you about. For what reason??? I mean most everyone pays that way these days......don't they? Overall a nice restaurant set in Bridgeway Station with mediocre pasta dishes. Large portions of pasta. I would prefer smaller portions and better freshly cooked chicken breast! JMO as always

    Excellent pasta dishes and good portions, enough for some leftovers to take home. The only downside was the service was too slow.

    This was a pleasant accident!! We sat at this small 6-8 seat bar. No TV's. High back chairs but slightly too low ( in my opinion). This is a nice place , not for baseball hats , the tables have low level lighting and are intimate and the decorations make you feel like you are in someone's Italian home. Cocktails are great . All with an Italian flare. Try the Margherita! Succulent, sweet and tart. Great selection of wine! Josh amd Michelle were attentive bartenders with good suggestions. We both ordered the Salmon...it was fresh with great seasoning and not over cooked. We certainly need to try some more food items . We met some nice friends at the bar also. We will absolutely go back! So ironically we had intended to go to another restaurant that started with the letter "R" and we got mixed up but still thoroughly enjoyed ourselves!

    Ben and Taryn were super friendly and offered great suggestions! Food and atmosphere were great! Definitely coming back!!

    I tried Arizona Fare for lunch today for the first time, and I will definitely be back…read more The restaurant itself feels like a bit of a throwback. There's a square bar in the middle with tables and booths around the perimeter, and some of the furniture has definitely seen some years. My booth even had a tear in the seat. But seriously, don't let any of that dissuade you, because the food was SO good. I had the Sedona Salad with chicken and everything tasted incredibly fresh. I was told the food is made fresh, never frozen, and you can absolutely tell. I eat salads with grilled chicken pretty regularly, and this was honestly the best chicken I can remember having on a salad. It was that good. The service was great, too. My server, who I'm guessing may also be the manager, was friendly, attentive, and clearly proud of the restaurant and the food they serve. And he should be. This was one of those unexpected lunch finds that makes you wonder how you've never been there before. Arizona Fare has officially been added to my lunch rotation.

She was personable, efficient, and made sure we received our food in a timely manner. The ribeye was perfectly cooked, but very under-seasoned or not at all. I've never had to add salt to my steak at a restaurant. Asparagus garnish was crunchy and plain. Fries were fresh and crispy. Also tried the chicken tenders (crunchy, juicy, and delicious!) and Scottsdale chicken (juicy, tender, flavorful). Ribs were overcooked.

    My friend invited my husband and I to this restaurant for her birthday…read more What a wonderful experience, although it did start off a little weird. We were about 10 minutes early. We stood by the door and they said there was nowhere for us to wait other than that spot. They offered us drinks, which was good... but it started in an awkward way. I felt a bit uncomfortable standing next to people on the couches, while they ate. I felt we were encroaching on them. We were seated in the rear section of the restaurant. Note: The air is quite chilly in this area. (You may want to bring light jacket) Adam was our waiter. His knowledge of the wine was a huge help for my husband's paring with his meal. He explained the food perfectly and was very patient with all of our questions. The food! OHMYGOODNESS! The duck was cooked perfectly. It had a sauce that was out of this world. One of the people at our table absolutely refused to let his wife taste his chicken because he wanted to enjoy every last bite! I shared bronzino fish w the birthday girl.(not sure how to spell it) Oh My Goodness!!! Friggin amazing! The crusting was absolute perfection. The clam/sauce complimented the fish perfectly. Appetizers were on point! Cream brûlée was a bit too creamy for me, I like it more like flan consistency, but it was very good. Once I save up again, I will certainly go back.

We enjoyed the beef tartar as a starter. the halibut and the ribs were fantastic and there was also a little side dish that was made on the fly, made by the kitchen that was beautiful with mushrooms, artichokes, and a lot of other things that I cannot remember. It was also delicious. The wine selection is fantastic here. The sommelier (Adam) was very friendly and knowledgeable. When booking a table, definitely make sure you do it correctly as I was not able to get through that experience correctly but even though we didn't have a reservation, there was a very nice spot in the bar area that we enjoyed. It was still very romantic and comfortable. We look forward to seeing "scoundrel" again soon. Thank you all for an amazing evening.

They have an array of small Happy Cow ice cream flavors! We browsed through all the canned jars from a Pelzer Company (I can't quite recall). They even have woodwork pieces perfect for a home bar or new neighbor. (Bottle opener on wood) Daughter found this gem and was tickled it had the temperature to properly cook squirrel. Fortunately, staff informed us they DON'T sell squirrels. (Maybe next time) The meat case had much to choose from to include seafood. (Unless my memory is playing tricks on me) They even had an ARMADILLO EGG! Needless to say I bought one. I can't wait to try that bacon goodness! The pork I was looking for was freshly ground and was perfect for my chorizo recipe. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable. They welcome you and are happy to help. There is plenty of parking and the line moves quickly. Overall a great experience and worth the 30 minute drive when combined with other Simpsonville shops.

We are Central Coast California (Santa Maria Tri Tip land) transplants and we love our grilled tri tip. We also picked up some marinated carne asada and chicken. Even found my favorite Happy Cow Habanero Jack cheese! My Tri Tip was the best I've had since moving here almost 3 years ago! I'm heading in today to grab some tallow for frying and of course another tri tip! Do yourself a favor and stop here for all of your summer grilling needs! Almost forgot the staff was so friendly and helpful. Even grabbed a marinade used on the carne asada to let me know what was in it. Top notch service all the way around. Just what you'd expect from a great butcher!
