Rocca Trattoria Italian - Pompano Beach

We have the oso buco ravioli and the gnocchi plus the meatballs for the appetizer. Eating in you HABEN to reserve, even outside the restaurant is more than good. Really nice plus, the cook comes and asks you how your meal is. It's a real nice touch

While wrapping up my day of errands in Lighthouse Pointe, I used Yelp Mobile to look up my favorite type of cuisine and Rocca Trattoria came up. It's located in a strip mall with a few other restaurants so it has plenty of parking. They have both inside and outside seating, but I wanted to luxuriate in the AC. It's a family run shop, and the owner was also my hostess. My plan was to choose between a couple of Italian food tapas between a bunch of course, and started with caprese salad with prosciutto. For starters, it's almost main course size and rich with flavor. I'm talking about a large bed of fresh greens, plenty of plum tomatoes (my favorite veggie), a creamy ball of burrata cheese all drizzled in olive oil and sweet balsamic vinegar. Add to that a nice amount of lightly salty and thinly sliced prosciutto and you can see why I didn't finish my meatball dish. Speaking of the meatballs sprinkled with parsley and served in a light yet tasty tomato sauce I was able to savor the juicy beef for three of them, and delaying gratification on two reheated at home the next day. The to go portion retained the flavor and the same texture from the restaurant. Besides the rich filling salad, I had to leave space for their chocolate profiterols. Filled with cream and covered with chocolate, these are fluffy balls of heaven for your sweet tooth.

Chef Mercedes did a great job! The best frutti di mare I've ever tried!! My friend ordered a lasagna and it was also amazing! Great service and beautiful surroundings, We definitely come back!

We had a great experience. The waiting staff was excellent. 2 of our children ordered spaghetti and it was great. My wife had the fetters with shrimps and it was not disappointed. The pepperoni pizzeria had the biggest pepperoni I've ever seen and it was delicious. The crab and lobster ravioli was great.

This was my third time in Rocca Trattoria and it's always a real pleasure. The place is super nice and cozy, and the food is so delicious! This time I tried the Osobucco and I loved it! The owners are very friendly people, always there make sure that customers have a good experience. I would definitely recommend this place, and I will come back to make sure to taste other delicious meals.
