About this restaurant

Rocco's Tavern in Studio City, California has the feel of an old-school pizzeria with its brick walls and neon signs. It also helps that this has become a gathering spot for friends and family. The TVs in Rocco's Tavern mean you can always come here to watch the game, too. More than anything, though, this restaurant remains popular because of its amazing menu. Come in for lunch and try the chicken parmesan hero, spaghetti Bolognese or the house baked eggplant ptarmigan. There are a number of different pizzas to choose from at Rocco's Tavern as well. The fresh buffalo mozzarella pie with chopped garlic, house sauce, and sliced buffalo mozzarella is extremely popular.

New to the Valley, this is place has a fantastic happy hour. Because it is close to my house I gave it a try with some friends. The food is great, and even though it is very loud they have been great about having my 4 year old join us. Can't wait for warmer weather for the patio. We keep going back, even though we can hardly hear each other talk. The service has always been great as well. You need a reservation if you want a table during happy hour!

It was fantastic! The food, the service, it was all perfect. The only thing that went bad was that the Charger's loss but there is no way that Rocco's could have made the Chargers win. LOL! I will be back next year for football season! All my best to Cameron, Jesalynne, Kristine and Stoney!! True rockstars!! Kris

I know it's a sports bar, but I just don't get the multitude of TV screens. Seems to be an unfortunate trend these days in all restuarants. But this one seemed a little over the top. Not sure why they need to charge $10 for a chicken nugget appetizer that was average. Pizza was okay..but my friends did love the shrimp appetizer. Portabello mushroom burger was overcooked and my friend who ordered it said she didn't feel very good all night.

Unfortunately, Rocco’s management never got my reservation from Open Table. I am not sure if the fault was on the part of Open Table or Rocco’s management, but I am giving them a good review regardless. In my opinion, things happen and I judge a restaurant by what they do to fix things and make it better. Rocco’s hostess went out of her way to fix the situation and make our experience a pleasant one. Besides being very apologetic, she gave our entire party a round of “Double” drinks on the house. Needless to say, we were all in good spirits after that. She even brought us out extra chairs to sit in while we waited. We eventually got a table in the patio area (as requested) even though it was during the World Series and the place was packed

Loved the sizzling shrimp. Lovely waitress, very "on-it," and the manager was extremely friendly. Great buzz in that place.
