   Our waiter was miserable. He clearly did not want to be there nor likes his job. We felt very uncomfortable and unwelcome. He was not friendly AT ALL. Almost rude. Walked away while I was telling him we were ready to order. Never refilled drinks. Never asked how our food was or anything. Food was only ok. Probably won't be back due to service.

   Everything was wonderful but I kept feeling like we were taking too long. By the end of dinner we were no longer getting even water. The waitress was great but seemed annoyed by the time we finished up.

   Rocco’s is decent - food is ok. Chicken parm was crispy but no sauce and lots of cheese. Baked haddock was decent (small piece) and apps were ok. Drinks were probably the best thing on the menu. Entertainment was pretty loud and not the greatest.

   I think that a veal parm entree should come with salad and be presented nicer with sauce and melted cheese

    Are you looking for a great place to take your family or just an easy night out for delicious food? Rocco's fills the bill. The menu is extensive from comfort food to fine dining. This is the restaurant that meets all your needs and keeps you coming back.

    A small group of friends met at Rocco's this past Sunday evening. We had a wonderful time. Rocco's has evolved since new ownership in 2016. The restaurant interior has been significantly improved and it is now a pretty place to dine. The quality of food has also improved and the menu has a more interesting selection of items. Staff were friendly and accommodating. We will certainly return soon.

    First, the server and staff couldn’t have been nicer and more prompt. Very friendly. But unfortunately the food is mediocre at best and poor at worst. Cheese pizza was very good, but the pasta dishes were overpriced and just not very good. Their red sauce is pretty one dimensional and applied sparingly on piles of pasta. The Marsala sauce was cloyingly sweet. Some salt and grated Parmesan helped doctor it up a bit. The scallops were odd with random lettuce leaves on the plate. Truffle fries, while tasty, were swimming in an ocean of oil which left a slick on the table. Out of the 5-6 popular Italian places in the Wilmington & Tewksbury area, my brother and I ranked this last. I would come here to get pizza, however.

    We have been going here on and off since 1972 when we first moved out of the city. Not much has changed since then except obviously the prices. Their food is OK, nothing special, not bad. Fine dining it is not, but they charge as though it were. There is an incredible Italian Restaurant on the same road about 10 minutes away that runs circles around Rocco's and is less expensive. We come back to Rocco's once every couple of years just to see what, if anything has changed. It will be another few years before we try it again if, in fact, we do. It is just ok.

    The atmosphere was very relaxing and comfortable. My wife had the fried clams and onion ring appetizers which were plentiful and delicious. I had the lobster mac and cheese which had plenty of lobster that melted in your mouth. The portions were plentiful and enough that we could take some home for an additional meal. I would definitely go back.

    This place used to be a great option for a nice date night...no longer. We have been coming here for more than a decade, but the last few visits have been worse and worse each time. Tonight's meal was over priced, had slow and disinterested service, and the food quality was terrible. The overworked host took two different take out phone orders while we waited to sit down, the server didn't say hello and just said " what do you want to drink?," and the drinks took 10 min to arrive. We ordered the Thai shrimp appetizer special ($10.95), it arrived 15 min later cold and with two medium size shrimp on a skewer with three grilled chunks of pineapple and a bit of slaw. It was too small for the cost and a rip off. My favorite dish, the chicken marsala with tortolini arrived cold and with unmelted cheese. The filling of the tortolini was cold so it never was heated enough to begin with. The manager happened by and took the plate to either warm it up or to make a new one. It arrived hot soon after, and was good but for $24 this should have been executed correctly to begin with. My wife's shrimp tasted like plastic or chemicals and she did not enjoy it either since she wanted to wait to eat our meals together and it got cold too. Overall a terrible value and bad service to boot. I really want to give my money to a local business, but this new Roccos is not what it was in the past. Once I start paying over $10 for 2 cold shrimp I demand the service and food quality to back up that high price point. Raising prices with poor quality and execution is a formula for failure. Not going back.

    Went here yesterday for Mothers Day. Food was ok. It's not as good as it was when they reopened. That's a shame. The service was also strange. Waitress made a face every time we requested something. She kept saying "this is Mothers Day you know." Then she'd come back to the table and be really nice. It was bizarre. I don't expect waitstaff to makes faces or rude comments. The whole meal become about her weird behavior. It was not a good experience overall. I'll think twice before coming back.

    Went here for Mother’s Day and had a terrible experience. The service was slow and the food was terrible. Everyone in our party of 6, including the kids, could barely eat their meal. My parents’ fish meals were bland. I had the grossest overpriced chicken parm I have ever had (usually my safe go to). The kid’s Mac n cheese was very goopy. We will not be returning.
