Love Rocco's Pizza especailly when the owner Mike is the one who makes it. But recently his daughter has making it and it was not the same quality, it was tasteless, not enough sauce and the topping was lopsided, it was so disappointed. From now on I only order pizza on Monday's & Friday's when Mike is making em.

First, I've had many good slices here, and even a good pie or two over the years. If you're hanging at Shapell Park, or the skatepark, this is a good nearby spot.If you're ever at a little festival at Shapell Park like Pork-roll-apalooza or whatever, come across the street to here for cheaper beers.Now, I consider myself a bit of an architectural preservationists. So the most important thing I want to say here, is that I pulled up for the first time in quite a few months, and didn't even recognize the place. Their amazing neon "Rocco's" sign is gone! This was incredibly disappointing. This was a beautiful, bright sign, that I absolutely feel is an important part of the downtown Phillipsburg landscape. It is literally heartbreaking to see it is gone. Can I buy it? Is it broken? Can I help get it fixed? Can WE, as a community get it fixed? If so, I'd be so happy to help get a fundraiser going! I'm pretty sure the other architectural preservationists would be interested as well.And if not, I'd be happy to buy it and put it in my home.Anyway, back to the review. Now as I said, I've had plenty of good slices here, and a good pie or two. But the other night I was omw home from work (an hour commute each way), and ordered a large pepperoni pie. They said 15 minutes, I got there 20-25 minutes later, and they didn't even start the pie! So I get there, they have me pay for it, then I wait maybe 10-12 minutes while they rush cooked it. See, I worked as a pizza delivery guy for years, and I know that you can't just pull a pizza out of the oven, and take it on the road. It has to cool off for a couple of minutes, or the cheese will just be all over the place, and not even stick to the dough. A "slide-pie" as we called it in the industry. Well, that's just what I got. Where the slices were cut, the cheese slid right over them. There was no longer any defined slices. The cheese was mostly to one side, the other side was dough and sauce.Now I know they didn't make the pizza like this. But my point is, the 2 or 3 minutes of cooling on top of the oven is just as important as the cooking of the pizza itself. Everyone who has worked in the industry knows about the cool off period. Then if you're really good, you cut the slices after the cool off. I called in advance to make sure their was time for this.And no restaurant can afford to ignore a phone order these days.The pie should've been free, or I should've walked.Oh well. I'll be back to give them another chance though as a local. Hopefully I can edit this review then.

We LOVE Rocco’s. Usually once a week we have a craving for Fat Cats and their mozzarella sticks but there’s a bunch more on their menu worth having every week, too! And the staff is always very welcoming and kind, can’t beat a local restaurant with a great rep.

I purchased a chicken parmesan dinner to go. I explained that I prefer that it be put into a plastic container so that it could be reheated in the microwave when I brought it to my uncle who was in the hospital. I was told that they only had aluminum containers; I decided to get the food anyway. To my surprise, they found a plastic container so that I could reheat the food if needed. I was overwhelmed by their thoughtfulness. The food was delicious, my uncle ate the most he has since he has been in the VA hospital, which is nearly a year. I was so happy to see him enjoy his meal. Thank you Rocco's Pizzeria!

Just moved next door and it's my place to go! I like the food so far except the cheesesteak! He puts tomatoe sauce on it which completely ruined the sandwich. Never had a cheesesteak with sauce before ever!!!! And it had no taste. The only thing good was the bun so its still sitting in my fridge.But absolutely love the atmosphere and service ?

Rocco's is one of my favourite. When a place knows your whole family by names that's great customer service. Theirpizza and wings are our favourite. Myself I love the fat cats. It's always clean and always a smile even on busy days. Even when they are busy they take time to just to say hello. Great family and team.
We love Rocco's pizza especially if Mike (the owner) makes it, his pizza is just so good. But recently purchased pizza that Mike's daughter Miranda made and it was just tasteless, just doesn't taste the same to Mike's pizza, so disappointed. We prefer Mike to make our pizza. I hope she learns how her dad makes the pizza. If not they will loose lots of loyal customers.

I recently visited Rocco Pizzeria,and it was a delightful experience from start to finish. The inviting aroma of fresh dough and rich tomato sauce greeted me as I walked in.Don't believe but you need to try Rocco's BLT made by Miranda — a perfect blend of savory toppings atop a crispy, thin crust. The ingredients were undeniably fresh, and the cheese was gooey perfection.If you're a pizza enthusiast like me, Rocco Pizzeria is a must-visit. I left with a satisfied palate and a strong desire to return for another slice of their heavenly creations.
