Terrible

If you like loud Celine Dion music blaring while you sit next to many many tourists and eat thick, soupy chicken parm go here. Enough said...

• Pros: clean
• Cons: a few

Great neighborhood restaurant

by spike0956 at Citysearch

Sometimes we get lucky when venture out of our own neighborhoods and come across a truly unique place. Well that's what happened one Friday night when we found Rocky's on Spring Street. Not really expecting much from the outside but when we sat down and were greeted by the owner, we were made to feel like regulars. That is what we have become because of the imaginative and delicious food. Italian at its best with fresh seafood specials that are truly wonderful. Pasta that is perfectly cooked and presented, and drinks and cocktails that are a perfect accompaniment to everything on the menu. For me Rocky's has become a food destination that I will travel a long way to enjoy.

• Pros: Great Italian food reasonably priced

The Best for true Italian in Little Italy

by andrewgibson2003 at Citysearch

Little Italy is awash with tourist trap Italian restaurants surviving on serving low cost/low quality food to the transient tourist. Rocky's is a true exception, with a loyal neighborhood following reflecting their reliably excellent Italian food and drink. The menu is varied and traditional, with plenty of options for any taste; drinks and cocktails are always great and reasonably priced. Service is friendly and they treat you particularly well once you show you're a regular. From the outside, it's hard to tell whether this is a good restaurant or not - don't hesitate, and you won;t be disappointed

• Pros: Food, prices, overall quality
• Cons: small space, on the "basic" side but nothing you will care about once you taste the food!

Charming Italian Restaurant

by buenisimo at Citysearch

Rocky's is a charming Italian restaurant in the very trendy Nolita neighborhood. Although the restaurant is small, it is very comfortable and it's size allows for personal attention. The food is classic Italian and just delicious.

This place is perfect for dates and/or getting together with a small group of friends. Highly recommended.

• Pros: Inexpensive
