Rocco Steakhouse
“Ferrari took care of us, we had tuna tartare, buttered spinach, Mac n cheese, tomahawk ribeye and everything was made to perfection.”
“The menu is practically a carbon copy of Wolfgangs and they source their cuts from similar purveyors.”
“It hasn't yet filled up because it's a newer joint but my fiancé and I loved it.”

This gets the vaunted "Merlin Five." Does summer make me generous? Check my review for Walgreens and my upcoming one on RARE and think again.
This is probably the best steakhouse in all of NYC (though I haven't tried that cash-only place in Brooklyn, but it already won't be getting more than 4 stars because it's not 1982 and yet they're cash-only). Lacks the pretension and pageantry of similar places (ever been to a prix fixe place where you get a snooty lecture on each dish?) My only complaint is that the area immediately around the bathroom is lit like a Macy's bathroom area. It should match the excellent dark 'mood' lighting of the rest of the place.
Some interesting people watching, too. Let's just say a couple NYC equivalents of Dr. Jerry Buss were out in force that night, and Erving Goffman would've loved to interpret them and the reactions they stirred. The city as social laboratory, all right.
Oh, we had the lobster mac and cheese, french onion soup, and a top sirloin and other various steaks. All superb.
This steakhouse is now one of my favorite. The staff was incredibly friendly and the atmosphere was perfect. Food was delicious. I was able to sample all of the different types of seafood and it was fresh off the boat. The filet was so delicious and cut like butter. The sides were incredible and most importantly the drinks were tasty. To me ambience is everything and this place had it. Highly recommended!
Phenomenal new steakhouse! For starters, does anyone know how difficult is to find the brand "1792" bourbon by Ridgemont Reserve in a bar??? Very difficult these days. Not at Rocco. It's the one of the first bottles I noticed at their massive bar. So before even being seated, I was already impressed. These guys know the right liquors to carry.
The staff are super attentive and friendly. There's always someone there the moment you need them. And clearly Rocco spared no expense in designing the venue. Super high ceilings and lots of high quality wood decor everywhere make you feel like you're in an upscale lodge in Napa or Oregon. Very tasteful.
The food? Just cooked to perfection. We had a few strips of the Canadian bacon. Excellent. Plus the fresh mozzarella and tomatoes, also excellent. I personally had the filet mignon. It was the best I have had in a long time. I'd argue that it rivals the filet at Del Frisco's, and I love that place. I'd recommend the peppercorn sauce with the filet. My buddies shared a massive 34 oz. Tomahawk ribeye. Superb flavor and texture. Also, try the creamed spinach. So good.
They've got a great wine list to go along with the food as well. There's something for both the thrifty and ballers 🙂 If you like full bodied and spicy wines with your meats, you cannot go wrong with the Penfold's.
Overall, a 5 star experience and meal. I'll be back many times to Rocco.
