First time and won't be the last. Our server was Shana and she was so much fun and has an amazing personality. We had the tableside guacamole and it was the best I have ever had��. And we got to see Tom Fellin, who used to be the manager of Bamboo, another restaurant that used to be at the plaza years ago. Can't wait to go back. ��
My son (who lives in Orlando) took me and my wife to the Raccos Tacos in Orlando on a few occasions in the past and we always enjoyed the food and service. When they opened this new location in Tampa we (me and my wife) were really excited. So we have been to the resteraunt in Tampa about three times now and have enjoyed ourselves and the food each time. We live about a hour away north of Tampa so going there is kind of a special occasion for us. So glad they are a little closer for us now! We both love Mexican food and Roccos has plenty of it.
Mex-fusion at its best. Every visit is consistently good, food, service and atmosphere. The overall experience is a great choice for the area. Table-side prepared guacamole is a must, and so is the tres leches dessert. Plenty of interesting dishes make it a challenge to choose just one.
When I first walked in to restaurant the hostess was a bit out of it. I was not taken care promptly, she was unprofessional, and she pretty much looked confused on what her shift was supposed to look like with her servers on shift. My waiter on the other hand was friendly, informative, and kind. The atmosphere at restaurant is absolutely stunning, food prices are a bit high for Mexican food, but the flavor was absolutely delicious. I will give Rocco's Tacos another try, but I better get it impressed with good customer service, or I will never come back and will be disappointed once again.
Rocco’s definitely won me over for the music that was playing the night i decided to drop in and get a bite to eat. We sat at the bar, our waitress/bartender was good. Nothing exceptional but not disappointing like a lot of other bartenders especially when you aren’t a drinker…. But I always tip heavy because I don’t drink. The pulled chicken nachos were fantastic. Now let’s talk about tacos, I had the two tacos, steak and blackened fish. Both were the size of my fist, pretty bland and way overpriced. They should think about renaming their restaurant to Rocco’s Nacho & Tequila bar. Let Taco Bell claim the tacos. I’ll try again but I’ll stay away from tacos!
I frequently visit international plaza mall and this is one of my favorite places to visit there. Very trendy crowd of diverse group and always busy albeit service is really good including their menu options and delicious food. Place is always clean even with larger crowds. Interesting tidbit is restroom has screens which play movies :). Recommend this place for get together, fun with great service and food.
Jalapeño margarita was refreshing, not too strong or spicy. I ordered the shrimp tacos which were HUGE and absolutely delicious. Definitely will come here again.
Incredible drinks, great atmosphere. Kat is the best waitress ever.
Queso is a little watery but guac is delish as are tacos. The staff went above and beyond for our group as well as several dietary restrictions.

Had the greatest time with my family. Our server, Kat, was absolutely the best. Extremely friendly and helpful with the menu. We will certainly be back very soon!
This was our first meal in Tampa & it was a 10/10! Bre was our server & super helpful! She gave us fun things to do in Tampa & recommended/made the fresh guacamole which was the best!
This place was really good. Very unique food and unique flavors. Definitely not the typical flavors you would think from a taco place. I did think the food was well made they make everything made to order and fresh in house is what they told us and it seemed very true because the food came out super fresh and hot. The amount of food you get for the price is not totally worth it. It seemed like little food for a high price. The place is well kept and clean. The service there is alright the hosts weren’t super attentive. Other than that it was pretty great I loved this place I would recommend you come here for some great food and a unique experience.
The pork taco was probably the best taco I’ve ever eaten in my life. We had the strawberry basil margarita which was just average and the añejo old-fashioned which was perfectly made and tasty. The birria tacos were good, not the best we’ve ever had but definitely not the worst. The worst part of the meal was the elote. When I say it was bad, it’s an understatement. The corn ears were tasteless and that wouldn’t have been so bad if there was anything on it but a couple flecks of cheese and literally a few granules of tajin on one square inch of the corn. It was absolutely not dressed properly. I didn’t know it was even possible to mess up elotes but Rocco’s Tacos succeeded. Such a disappointment but the rest of the meal made up for it and the service was also very good.
