- AAndresTampa / Central Florida West •1 review5.0Dined 3 days agoI celebrated my birthday at Rocca, and it was a wonderful experience! The service was exceptional, the food was absolutely delicious, and the atmosphere was beautiful and elegant. The tableside mozzarella was a highlight, and the pistachio dessert was amazing!

- BBenGoldWest Palm Beach •91 reviews5.0Dined on 25 Oct 2026This was the second time here and we brought others who had not experienced the great food and ambiance. We love starting off with multiple apps and you have to do the bread service (best ever). The main courses were great and there was enough to take home. We also had great wine and cocktails and the evening was great!More infoAva Restaurant$$$$• Italian• Tampa•4.5
- MMelGoldTampa / Central Florida West •10 reviews5.0Dined on 16 Oct 2026The food here was absolutely delicious. We were quite surprised that it is a more casual dining environment. It is very loud and there is a bar area. The food definitely exceeded the ambience. Our server was Reina, and she was a gem. Very energetic, attentive, knowledgeable, and positive! We will be back!More infoBellaBrava Bexley$$$$• Italian• Land O' Lakes•4.7
