Rocco's in Doncaster

Well where do I start? Absolutely awful service and food! Had high expectations and it was just grim. Was half way through a starter before getting offered a drink. Waited a long time, then was served cold food. The chicken was black on the inside and outside, was not edible. Large twig was found in soup. Lots of bay leaves left in food which is just sloppy and disappointing. I am writing this review from the bathroom as I have been vomiting, violently. DONT BOTHER

We popped in on a Wednesday lunchtime and were seated no problem. Lovely waiting staff, fabulous menu, great drinks. We ate from the lunch menu 3 courses for £29 or 2 courses for £26. We had calamari and garlic mushrooms, the burger (WOW!) and the salmon with prawns on a bed of risotto. Perfect 👌. Then ice-cream and tiramisu. Nom nom. All lovely. Pint of coke and a large rose wine £77 including the service charge. For the quality of food I think a good price. We love it and live in the village so it's win win for us.

Excellent service and food …Sapphire our waitress was attentive polite and the perfect hostess she is a credit to the business! Food was fabulous great risotto tasty and hot to the last mouthful …

We decided to give this restaurant a try. First impressions were good. Friendly greeting. Nice decor. We chose the Funghi Aglio stater not too bad could have been less salty, and couple of extra pieces of bread ( as we were sharing) My wife then had the Mare Arabella, on the whole not to bad apart from the stone cold andrubbery mussels ( we complained a second portion was made, exactly the same issue) When we complained about the mussels we have to explain to 3 different members of staff I had the burger, it was seasoned very well, but too dry. After a few bites I couldn't eat any more. When we complained the reply was " no one else has complained " We asked for the bill " which we paid in full including the discretionary service charge " How ever thinking about it we should have asked that this be deducted from the bill At no point was any discount offered ( we wouldn't have taken it) but that's not the point We both work in hospitality needless to say we will not be paying a second visit or giving out our recommendation

The food was delicious and the service was excellent. Natasha who served us was lovely and very helpful and knowledgeable.

Food was beautiful and would like to give a special thanks to our waitress Rose as nothing was too much trouble. Rose was very friendly and professional and made this a 5 star dining experience!!

We visited roccos for our anniversary date night and it was such a lovely experience from start to finish. The decor is beautiful and we found staff are friendly, professional and really helpful. Highly recommend the Mare Arabella, it was absolutely Devine! We couldn’t fault...

As things have been quiet I can understand it could be difficult to operate but what I can’t understand is the sending out of reheated food (lasagna) which was rock hard in the middle due to over cooking. Service good and a nice restaurant though

The server told us we were the first to experience their afternoon tea. It was beautifully served, lots to eat, finest quality sandwiches with designer cakes , tea replenished regularly. Nothing was to much trouble, Definitely go again and highly recommended to all

One of those rare occasions when everything came together perfectly. Our first visit here, and we were impressed by the location and the interior decor, particularly the festive decorations. The staff were superb, extremely professional, immaculately attired and very friendly. All 3 of us had...

Excellent evening with special friends and family. The food was excellent, service first class and great environment.

Have visited Roccos several times over the past few months as it’s now our local Italian restaurant. Every time the food has been exceptional and the waiting staff always friendly and attentive. Cannot fault! A must if you’re in the area.

I had previously written in a couple of weeks ago advising that the pasta bowls needed to be heated as I've had pasta meals in both roccos and its partner restaurant in bawtry and both times it was barely warm. Then attended a dinner for...

Went with another couple, service was extremely slow, I’m assuming they were down a few members of staff, wouldn’t of hurt to tell us, we were in no rush so it wouldn’t have bothered us. Food was okay, I had the mozzarella fritta to start,...

I moved to Tickhill just prior to covid, I've taken my friends and family several times. The food is always excellent. It's a proper jem hidden away in the courtyard. In the summer having your lunch outside is wonderful.

Starters were exceptional, the scallops, black pudding & belly pork was highlight of the evening. Mains arrived & looked fantastic. The smoked haddock risotto topped with an egg was spoilt with the yolk being hard. We complained to the waitress & asked for a replacement...

From start to finish the standard of service from all the staff was impressive, it was on par with high end, city restaurants, they were all professional, friendly and seemed to know exactly what they were doing. This created a lovely atmosphere where we sat...

Had such and lovely lunch here and can’t wait to return. The menu has a great range of choices and the food was presented beautifully and tasted just as good. The team were extremely friendly and service was great.

Staff were friendly efficient and helpful. Sat outside and we all felt safe. Food was really good, we all enjoyed what we had washed down with an equally good bottle of Pinot. The whole afternoon was very enjoyable indeed. Thank you

First time in a long time I have eaten here, I had forgotten how nice it was! Food was delicious and staff were very accommodating when we asked to make an adjustment to one of our meals.

Good to finally get out again. The food at Rocco's is excellent. Service great and staff all very friendly. Hopefully the staff will not need to wear all the safety gear for much longer.

Went to Roccos for the special pancakes on pancake day...what a great idea this was. Stunning food followed by amazing choice of pancakes which were superb. Staff here are great, we live every visit even when only for drinks. Highly recommended.

Booked what I would say is an overpriced meal for an average meal. The mussels had no seasoning whats so ever and just tasted like cream, prawns was beautifully cooked but in a sauce what was basically a block of butter! Meatballs tasted like nothing,...

A valentine's night out spent in an amazing restaurant. Great service from start to finish even though the restaurant was very busy. Brilliant food, good quality and served promptly. Made our special night out amazing ! Thanks Rocco's can't wait to visit again

Great pre birthday meal - had a lovely family meal 11/02/20 with 5 of us. I have been previously but not for a couple of years. Lovely decor as we came in and a warm welcome. Great choice of food and everyone enjoyed their courses. Will definitely be returning soon. Keep up the good work!

Fabulous night fantastic food!! We all enjoyed our meal was well presented & very tasty my hubby had the mussels in cream sauce & I had the prawns portuguise both very delicious 😘excellent service can’t wait to visit again..GRAZI...

Very nice restaurant. I had tomahawk steak which was huge and my wife had kebabs. Good friendly service would definitely return.

Great place for an Itiallian meal of just a few drinks, not the cheapest but service and quality exceptional, friendly staff and the manager always has time for a chat while running a tight ship

Had a lovely meal, starters and mains. Well presented and cooked to perfection. Then had coffee’s, again fine. Oops. Goes down hill now. The bill came with a ‘service charge’. Not seen this for a while! Didn’t query it, should have, didn’t want to cause a scene. Adding nearly £8 to a bill was somewhat ‘ cheeky’ and dampened the evening.

I have been to this restaurant a few times now and apart from one occasion I have been disappointed.The place itself is lovely but apart from that I think it is overpriced and very average food.

Great food but service was not so good. Been here quite a lot over the years but staff were less than helpful this time. I asked to remove the service charge from the bill, in favour of leaving a lesser amount in cash, which was met with childish response from waitress. Maybe they should make sure the customers they were making fun of had actually gone before they started justifying their own poor service. The manager would also do well to listen to the feedback from the customer than the members of staff, who were clearly only interested in their tips!

lovely place fantastic food nice choice of wine and nice draught lagers on tap very attentive staff would highly recommend

We come here often, the food and cocktails are amazing! I love the decor inside and the fact you can sit outside in the courtyard in the summer. We will continue to visit roccos!

Outstanding food using only the best and freshest ingredients. A good selection of quality wines My pasta with king prawns was superb , garlic bread fabulously authentic Italian food

Brilliant food. Good service. Great portions It lived up to my colleagues recommendation We will return just as he has many times

Come here for lunch with friends quite often. The food is always excellent, well presented and good value for money. Efficient and attentive service and we are never made to feel rushed.

Been before and it was good , but this time the mussels were drt tastless and the sauce weak and insipid--sent it back. They also served one of the starters 10 minutes after the others arrived.

We’ve been here several times now and the food has been fantastic each time. Excellent meals and very generous portions. Staff are always lovely and friendly, and service is punctual.

On our original visit here we were very pleased, the service was good and the food was excellent. We returned a few weeks later to find the service, whilst not bad, was not as good as on our first visit. And the Steak was very tough and very rare, although the request was for medium rare. We passed on our comments and the management assured us of attention. So we tried again. The service was still O,K. Nothing outstanding. The disappointing thing was that the Steak was still tough and very rare. Does the 'Chef' think that every one of his clients wants to eat raw meat? I again brought this to the attention of the staff when I paid the bill. "Oh, it must be just one of those nights". Yes, our last one.....

I tried to book a table outside early Friday evening and was told that they don’t book outdoor tables it’s first come serve however when we arrived and went to a free table we were quickly moved to another table because ‘it was reserved’ this would have really annoyed me but there were plenty of other nice tables outside so it wasn’t an issue. I ordered a passion fruit fizz it wasn’t very nice it just tasted like squash but my friend had a couple of nice cocktails including a bubblegum daiquiri and a ‘unicorn’ we both had a nice starter of potato skins and my main was ‘Mare Arabella’ it was absolutely delicious! I highly recommend ordering this dish. The bill came to almost £90 for 2 cocktails each, 2 starters and 2 mains which I think is quite pricey but the food was lovely and there is a great selection of cocktails - although not all of them were a hit with me.

We went as a group of 4 , after having a nice lunch the previous week . The restaurant has recently had a refurb and is much nicer .However the food was very disappointing . It lacked seasoning and flavour . We had a range of starters and different main courses , but all were not as good as we expected them to be , and presentation was quite poor too .

We visited Roccos on Friday for lunch after finishing work in the area and being absolutely starving, we got seated straight away and the service was really friendly and quick (which is what you want when you're hungry) we ordered two pizzas and a side to share and they came out fairly quickly and were delicious. It's not the cheapest of places but you get what you pay for, we'll be back soon for more pizza!

Have been here many times and serves by Alison which have been lovely occasions but recently been served by somebody else who I have found rather rude by making us order early and also having our starters on the table before we’ve sat down at the table which I find very rude. If Alison was serving us this would be a 5/5 review but unfortunately we were served by someone else who thinks they are Italian and needs an order after 5 mins when you’ve sat down with an early cocktail. Please rectify this as we love coming to Roccos but if this service continues we will look elsewhere.

Went for your wedding anniversary last night. Had a couiple of drinks follwed by a very authentic garlic bread to share. My wife had the chicken estivo which she enjoyed. I had fillet steak which came 5 minutes after my wife's meal. It came rare not what I asked for. The skinny fries were hard. How can you not cook skinny fries? The manager asked if I wanted to send it back but that would have meant an even longer delay. Shame I've reviewed this restaurant before and always found it to be a good eat. It's an expensive place to eat, you can't make these mistakes.

Had a terrible meal here on a special ocasion my brother and wife came over from Canada and the night was ruined by poor food and servive and had to listen to the chef shouting all the time we were ther

Visited recently with friends and grandson, good food selection to suit all of us. Friendly staff, made grandson really welcome. Will definitely return.

This place has the potential to be brilliant. The setting is lovely and in summer you can sit outside. Service is pretty good and the menu is varied. A pizza with service charge can cost around £15 which seems like a lot. The dough is not of the highest quality and clearly bought in. The topping was lovely but it wasn’t anywhere near a perfect pizza. These are London+ prices and clearly capitalising on the fact that Tickhill has very few choices for food.

Booked a meal on Friday night for a date night with me and my boyfriend. He comes from an italian family and loves italian restaurants. He rates Roccos as one of the best he has eaten at. We had three courses here and some drinks. We had amazing service. The food was amazing as usual when we eat here. The lobster parcels in prosecco sauce where something else ! Never tasted anything like it ! Now one of my favourites on the menu. Thanks Roccos ! It was a great night out.

Made us feel like it wasn’t an appropriate place to have a good meal on a Saturday night. Berated for talking as it upset the elderly ‘locals’. Not from this area but can guarantee I will never visit again. Have never been made to feel so insulted at a restaurant in my life. Disgraceful. The food, however, was excellent. Recommendation to the chef is that they move on asap before this place goes into despair.

£5.10 for a shandy! Suffice to say it will be the last shandy I have in here. I was going to have food but after being scared off by the price of a drink I decided to eat elsewhere.

The environment is very pleasant and the general atmosphere good. The service was reasonably friendly. The prices are on the higher side, but this is probably a reflection of the location. The food was not bad. The ingredients used were of a good quality, but final dishes were only okay. The Margarita was a bit salty and my salad was nice, but a bit underwhelming. The kids meals were very average. The general result is that the decor and local promises excellent, but the food is nothing special.

I have always wanted to visit Roccos since a group of my work colleagues from Sheffield had booked to go and were really raving about it the next day. Eager to experience it for myself, I made a reservation for my birthday celebration with the girls for the following month. (I would certainly advise booking in advance here as when I called they were already fully booked on the initial date that I had requested and had limited tables left for the date that I ended up going with). There is a free car park just off to the front of the restaurant which was perfect for our designated driver. The place itself is located in a pretty picturesque village and is set within a gorgeous rustic courtyard. Upon entering Roccos, we were greeted by a professional and smart-looking team of managers and staff who did everything to ensure that our night was truly special. The place was packed and we instantly loved the busy vibe. The service was brilliant and the interiors are absolutely gorgeous with really stunning details throughout (we got talking to another group of girls later on in the evening in the cocktail bar and they said it has recently been refurbished). My favourite touch was the children’s names of the owner (so I’m told!) hand-carved into the beams. The food was delicious and to a very high standard. We often refer to one of the girls who was in my party as the “food critic” as she regularly dines at high end eateries, and she made a point of asking to meet the chef to pass on her feedback. Despite that the place was booming, a young man called Marco took the time to pop out of the kitchen to come and talk to us, which I thought was really lovely. My friend was telling him how she has had many Italians and this was by far the best one to date, in and out of Italy, and we all couldn’t have agreed with her more. It turns out all of their ingredients are imported from Italy (even the eggs, tomatoes and flour!) and when complimented on the pizzas we found out that they even make their own dough fresh every morning. The authenticity shines throughout this place and we felt that the prices were very reasonable for the first class quality that we had received. Overall, there is a really authentic, family-orientated and trendy but cosy vibe to the place, and I would highly recommend it. I got the impression it’s perfect for families, friends and couples as there was a mixed crowd when we visited and it seemed to cater for all. We finished our night sipping cocktails in the courtyard. A simply stunning experience and a big thank you for making my birthday a great one.

Words cannot describes the evening I endured (survived). I have dined at many restaurants that claim to be of a high standard. Non of them have been as big of a fraud as this place the food was mediocre at best. The staff all I can say is at least they tried but worst of all was the drink prices and it pains me to be like this as I don’t like to be negative however the prices were ludicrous especially for what I got. I hope that management sees this so they can fix the issues that I have brought up

We visited with two good friends for an early evening meal. We were greeted by very friendly staff. My wife and myself opted for the Mussels as a starter. They were to die for. Our friend had the Pate which was also very good. The mains were excellent, but we could not manage a sweet afterwards. we went into the patio to enjoy our coffees. Had it not been a but cool we could have sat there all night we were so satisfied. We shall certainly return to this excellent place.

I visited for lunch with a couple of colleagues, the drinks are dearer than London prices, 2x cokes £8, 1x Perroni £5.25, a small bowl of chips approximately 20 chips £3.50, and as for the carbonara £11.95 & it would t fill my child, owe well you live and learn

Visited on Saturday night and the place has had a makeover which looks amazing, bar area bigger so you can go just for a drink which is good. The staff were all very friendly and helpful, we received great service and well worth the 10% discretionary tip added to the bill. I had the meatballs and the portion size was perfect, my husband has chicken arriabiata which was also delicious. We shared bruschetta to start which was really good, one of the best I've ever had although I could have eaten it to myself it was that good! Can't wait to go back, excellent meal, good service and a really nice place.

Called here for a coffee with friends and stayed for a light lunch lovely food and nice friendly staff a little slow in serving but was quite busy

Just wanted to say what brilliant staff you have, especially the young man called Chris. Nothing is to much trouble, hes a credit to your team. Food is fabulous too

After visiting Rocoos on a number of occasions over the years I recently returned since the new refurbishment had taken place. The work that has taken place certainly lifts the atmosphere. We visited as a family of four early on a Saturday evening (6pm) to find the restaurant was full. We hadn't booked yet the staff were brilliant. We got an hour slot if we wanted it but were told that they had to have the table back before 7pm. This was more than enough for us we ordered, two pizzas, a lasagne, and a risotto we were fed, and watered within the hour. The food was delicious, the risotto was definitely a highlight. A wonderful meal, with great atmosphere, well done to everyone at Roccos

Food was awful, had the tagliatelle with prawns. Pasta was extremely greasy and the prawns were undercooked. Management seemed slack however the service was fast and efficient. My spouse had the lasagne but it was cold so we sent it back. When it was brought back, it seemed like they had heated the same dish in the microwave. Absolutely awful food for the price. Most certainly will not be returning.

Table of 8 with friends Some who had eaten here before and said it was very good, Hence my expectations ,Prices just do not justify what we were served,2 lasagne sent back as bone dry, One replaced with Pizza which was not even cut for my wife, Simply given a knife to cut it ourselves, No Pizza cutter ??? Beef dish sent back as this was cold, Waitress spilt some juice from Prawn Starter on one guests shirt as she served us,They did take the cost of two main meals and sides of to be fair but that was not the point as it just ruined the experience

Spent a lovely Saturday afternoon with family. First visit here and will be definitely returning. Staff nice and friendly , knowledgable about the menu. All our food was delicious and well presented. Service was quick and efficient.

What a lovely evening. We are both fans of Italian cuisine prior to this visit and so we had average hopes of the food after reading the reviews. How wrong we were, the staff were extremely friendly and helpful, the food was excellent, my partner had the pork chop and I had the gamberini tagelleti, both very tasty and a plentiful portion size. I requested more pasta to go with my main and this was not an issue. They made me a fresh portion to add to my main without hesitation. At first we were questioning the 10% service charge before the meal but once we had enjoyed the food and service it seemed justified to leave this. We will definitely be returning back on our next child free evening.

My husband and I enjoyed a meal at Rocco at the weekend. The place is really nice and the staff were very efficient. As someone else comment th portions are sensible size and on the whole good. The 10% surcharge on top of your above average price meal. With our wine and pre dinner drink our bill was £90 which was about what we expected for the two of us but to add a compulsory surcharge of £10 making our bill £100 was excessive. This should be optional as not many would give a £10 tip. We often eat out in Sheffield and the surcharge at the main two places we go to is a suggested amount not compulsory.

First visit & was impressed. All the food was lovely & very good portion sizes. Even took some of my main home to finish off as too good to waste!

Went for a family meal on the 23rd December 2018. We wouldn’t go back again. Booking was arranged by a family member but we wish we had read the negative reviews here first and booked elsewhere. Arrived at 1pm to a half empty restaurant. Service was poor from the off. Waitresses seemed oblivious to customers trying to get their attention. The drinks order was delivered wrong. The kids menu has “breadsticks” as a starter!! (The thin kind that come in a plastic packet) The children’s main courses weren’t served til 2-30pm so we had 90 mins of entertaining 4 kids with no food (except breadsticks) and no offer of even crayons and paper to pass the time. Waitress didn’t know their own menu so when delivered the food couldn’t name the dishes and we had to guess! The food was fairly bland, bruschetta a disappointment I’d suggest using better quality tomatoes, pizza bases were uncooked and pasta was tasteless. Now I think about it 2/5 stars is probably generous but it is Christmas after all! I can see the manager reports she checks the cctv when receiving bad reviews so I’ve tried to leave enough detail to confirm all the above. Kind regards.

Went here for a birthday meal with my wife and two daughters. Whilst standing and taking coats off waitress asks us for our drinks order! Sat down but before we have a chance to look at drinks menu same again and again a few minutes later. Waitress manages to break cork in wine bottle , eventually sorts it out with cork debris and foil bits left strewn around the table. Later in the evening after ordering two drinks eventually had to go to bar to ask the two yapping staff if they'd mind serving the drinks. The Pizzas that were ordered were about 2 inches wider than the plates which was a challenge especially since the base, although very thin, was almost impossible to cut with the serrated knife. Cant think of anything good to say about the experience really, except the company.

This is the second time as a bunch of ladies out to lunch we have been given the bill before we’ve even had deserts. The food is to die for the wine flowing but again we were given the bill while some of us had not had our deserts. One was not ordered at all others which were advertised as hot were cold had to be returned to be given again still cold. With a bill of £287.00 through wrong orders been taken we were asked to leave the table as it had been booked out to other customers who were waiting. Totally unacceptable. Hence we will not be returning. Such a shame really.

Been here a few times with friends for a girly lunch and always enjoyed the food and friendly service. Lovely menu, something for everyone and always very tasty. Is a stylish place and really enjoyed sitting out in the summer. Feels very Mediterranean when the sun is shining - really lovely.

Wonderful friendly staff . Great place . Lovely tasty food and reasonable prices . Highly recommended .

Walked in around 4.15pm on a Saturday, didn’t think at that time would need to book. When we arrived we asked for a table for 3 (obvious we had a child with us). The place wasn’t overly busy and plenty of tables spare. The waitress wasn’t polite to us, put down menus and walked off. We then had to ask for a child’s menu, again the waitress didn’t smile or say sorry. Both my husband and I weren’t happy and almost walked of the restaurant.

This was a spontaneous lunch. A friend passing through Tickhill while I was there and we met for lunch near where he could park. It is situated down a little alley and all looked rather quaint with a modern outside area too. We both ordered off the lunchtime menu. The restaurant was very large inside however but all but empty. The choice was understandably limited for lunch; reasonable enough,though the wrong dish was brought for my friend and the right one had to be ordered. The portions and quality for the price were terrible. My chicken was dry and the salad with it dull and tame. My friend had steak and said it was OK, no more. We had coffee and I was £25 lighter as we left.

Went with friends for a meal and we were all disappointed that the menu had changed. Vegetarian option poor, service good. Don't agree with service charge being added, not that I pay it. I'd rather pay separate.

Really impressed with the way Roccos handled our large family group. 18 of us served really efficiently with first class food and drink. We had a huge age range to cater for from 5mths to 95yrs but all of us enjoyed it.

Ate here with friends. All of us really enjoyed our food. Service was very good and the food was very tasty.

Really lovely Italian restaurant. Really well kept and the place was spotless. Staff really welcoming and attentive throughout the meal. Service was very good. The food was excellent. We were all really pleased with our meals and portions were good. I had calamari fritti, a good portion with a lovely refreshing to the palate lemon mayonnaise. Really delicate small squid rings. My main was the spaghetti Rocco which consisted of spaghetti in a rich tomato and chilli sauce with homemade meat balls. Really delicious. Freshly grated parmesan (the little hand held grating machine) was offered which was really nice. I couldn't finish it all so had what was left to take home. Placed in really nice takeaway container. Four starters, four mains and four soft drinks £83.45. Really lovely luncheon.

Popped in (sat outside) for a hot drink each. Waited and waited for table service which we had seen provided for other customers. Finally went in and was told customers may order at the bar or be served at the table. We ordered a two white coffees and a pot of tea. More waiting, more watching other customers being served (is this one of those establishments where the better you're known, the better you're served?). I went inside to query the delay and was told they were busy (note: two tables occupied inside, four outside and most had been served already). A few minutes' later the server brought the drinks with an apology; coffee not that great. We then had to go back inside to pay. I really think our faces (and, quite frankly, age-range) don't fit here. In future, we will keep going to Daisy's Café and Bistro on the high street a little walk away. How hard can it be to get three hot drinks right?

As an exhausted mother to a newborn, when your inlaws offer to babysit, you jump at it. Im so grateful that on our rare night of freedom we chose to go to Roccos. The food was gorgeous (I had gnocci) and the atmosphere was inviting without being weird or insecere. We recommend highly.

Was a great setting for a night out with my girlfriend, the decor and layout is very well executed big enough to feel like your not treading on other diners toes and intimate enough to still be romantic.

I'm lucky enough to have this on my doorstep and haven't yet reviewed it , I have been many a times in the day night summer winter for drinks and food . I have always had a warm welcome with both my young son and with friends. I love the gins and the wine the drinks prices can be considered as high but then its within walking distance for myself so that is my bonus instead of taxiing to town. The food is lovely light bites all the sandwiches are great and so is the salads. The children menu is excellent and my son loves the pizzas as do I. One of my favorite dishes is the salmon and I also tried the burger the other night was excellent so filling and great value. They offer gluten free too. This is my fave place to go in Tickhill great atmosphere and always a great night.I notice some people moan about the service charge but if you don't want to pay just ask them to take it off simple!
