We had reservations for 10 people and were running almost 45 minutes late (we're from Jersey trying to make it through the traffic) and Rocca still held the table for us by the water. Our waiter Yigit was probably one of the best servers we've ever had. Anything and everything we asked for from coal changes to even blankets were delivered almost immediately and the food was amazing! Definitely would come here again. read less

Visiting home for a bit, I made sure a friend, my fiancé & I had tried this place out. I couldn't say one bad thing abt this place. It seemed as though we were being served by the manager himself? He was very kind, sweet, attentive & smiling. The atmosphere was amazing, the jazz music was smooth, their drinks were pretty good! Their service top notch. Their hookah lasted the whole 3hrs we were there. Yes they change coal for no extra charge but it's the fact the tobacco didn't burn at all. After a while, it starts tasting burnt but theirs, not at all.. worth the 30$ hookah for sure. Food was amazing. I had their lamb chops, mmmm cooked to perfection. My fiancé & friend also loved their food, had a pasta & another lamb dish. For dessert, we had their fondue & their fruits were sooo fresh. This place was just amazing. My fiancé & I are planning to reserve for our after-wedding to dine here! Love love love this place. read less

We ordered the mixed cold appetizers And mixed grill, French fries, grilled Bronzino and salads  all those dishes tasted authentic and delicious. Not to mention the hookah and the service gentlemen. The waiters so attentive to your needs and demands. They were very professional and polite.  The music accompanied by the violinist added so much charm to the environment.  The only thing that bothered me was the lit sparkly birthday candles, it looks all fun and exciting until it does down and you have to deal with the burning smell of the smoke.. all in all, we had an amazing time and the experience would definitely be repeated and recommended. read less

They had a saxophone player playing some live music. We sat with the view of the water. It was nice. I like the wait staff, they kept coming to check on us and the place was packed.

Our server was Yacob(maybe Jacob) and he attended to every need. I ordered the branzino and my boyfriend had the steak and we had no complaints. The drinks were less then $10 and strong. I was a bit hesitant due to the dining while black reviews but we had excellent service as well as a great reception by the large party of Russian men who kept sending us shots. Bottom line: large tasty portions, strong drinks, great service and lasting HOOKAH!!! The view from the back was wonderful and we will definitely be back. read less

We came to RoccA Cafe many times. If weather is pleasant , outside sitting is great - you are on the water, boats are passing nearby. Inside sitting is great also - comfortable lounge ripe soft couches are available. Interior is a fusion with a bit of Mediterranean influence.

Our waiter Yigit - pronounced Yeet (we asked) - was friendly, super hospitable, and fast. He made sure to check in with us various times throughout our 4 hour brunch, offered us a free fruit plate, free drink refills, etc. To start off, the bread is to die for, especially with the spicy marinara-like sauce they call "hot sauce." Bread was warm and soft, sauce is not hot at all - but addicting nonetheless. We all got eggs benedict with smoked salmon. Delicious and served with a refreshing side salad. The sunshine and seating by the water made for a vibe we would travel an hour and a half for EVERY weekend. 10/10 recommend for a date or brunch with a group. Will be back soon! read less

Bobby is a great manager and assisted is every step with a surprise birthday party. Bobby provided us with his personal number so that I can contact him with any questions. He made every single thing we asked for happen. The entire night went smoothly including transitioning from tea, to belly dancing and cake cutting. He ensured everything was done perfectly. I would recommend him to anyone throwing a party or even having dinner at the Rocca Cafe. I will definitely be coming back. Ask for Bugra aka Bobby whenever you come by. read less

We opted to sit by the windows because it was beautiful out, and the windows open all the way allowing fresh breeze, and a view of the water. Once we were seated, our waiter came over to take our drink order and provide us with fresh Turkish bread and white sauce. We had a few different waiters help us throughout our entire meal. We ended up staying for a total of 4 hours because of how is immaculate the service was! There's plenty to do besides eat. We chatted, smoked hookah, and enjoyed tea and dessert. We each ordered different foods. Brunch was still going on so a few of us ordered that. The salmon Benedict was a hit among our group. I opted for the Yengen, which I've never had before! It was delicious, with just the right amount of cheese, and it came with a generous helping of seasoned fries. We ordered a hookah to share among us after our meal. The waiters brought us fruit and tea to make us feel comfortable. The pricing is so reasonable considering the atmosphere, service, and food quality. Seyithan and Yeetz were amazing I cannot describe it enough. They are the main reason we will be back so soon, they truly make you feel like no one else is there, and their hospitality was above and beyond!!!!!!! read less

Went recently for kebabs and babaganush and omg it was delicious. However I think the best season to attend this restaurant to experience all of its beautiful benefits of being by the bay is During the summer or warmer weather. Then you can enjoy the water because it's located literally above water and the birds/swan/boats and it's a beautiful view. That's one advantage that this place has compared to other restaurants in the area. Enjoy and their virgin mojitos are life. read less
