" My husband and I decided to try Ruoccos for a date night and were pleasantly surprised. The ambiance was cozy and romantic, with soft lighting. The food was exquisite! I ordered the seafood pasta, and my husband had the ribeye steak. Both were excellent in taste and presentation. Service was top-notch, attentive but not intrusive. For dessert, we couldn’t resist the chocolate layer cake which was gorgeous and delicious. Overall, a lovely dining experience—definitely coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" It was my first time at Ruoccos, and I must say, it won't be my last! The food was phenomenal! I started with the risotto, which was creamy and delicious. For my entree, I tried the special lobster gnocchi that was divine! It was fresh and bursting with flavor. The service was friendly, and even though they were quite busy, I didn't feel neglected. I can’t wait to return to explore more of their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Ruoccos has been our go-to restaurant for family gatherings. The food is consistently amazing, and the service is always warm and welcoming. We've hosted multiple family events here and never had a single complaint. The baked clams are to die for, and their pasta selections are always fresh and flavorful. The restaurant itself is beautifully maintained and has a nice family atmosphere. The owner often checks in on us, which adds that personal touch – making us feel special and valued as customers. I highly recommend Ruoccos for your next family meal or celebration! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had an enjoyable time at Ruoccos celebrating my parents' anniversary. They were celebrating their 30th! The staff went above and beyond to make it special, and the food was excellent. From the appetizers like antipasto to the entrees including their famous chicken Piccata, everything was served with care. We topped it off with their amazing cheesecake. The atmosphere felt like family and made the event memorable. We will definitely be back to create more wonderful memories! " (*Curated Review*)

" Ruoccos Restaurant offers an incredible dining experience! We went here to celebrate my mother's birthday, and she was delighted! The staff was so friendly and attentive. We tried several appetizers including the stuffed mushrooms and fried calamari, both were delicious. For mains, I had the chicken marsala, which was nicely seasoned, while my partner had seafood linguine—another fantastic choice! To finish, we indulged in their homemade tiramisu—absolute perfection. We will be back for sure; highly recommend this hidden gem! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're looking for a hidden gem that serves delicious Italian food, Ruoccos is the place! My family and I found this restaurant on a whim and were absolutely blown away by the food. We shared several appetizers including the meatballs and calamari, both of which were cooked to perfection. For my main dish, I had the special of the day – a crab-stuffed halibut that was simply divine. The fish was flaky and had great flavor, complemented beautifully by the risotto. The staff was attentive and friendly, making sure our dining experience was enjoyable. Afterward, we couldn't resist the temptation of dessert and shared a chocolate lava cake that was heavenly! Overall, I was impressed and will definitely be returning. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't stop raving about Ruoccos! If you love Italian food, this is a must-visit restaurant. The pizza was among the best I've had, fresh, flavorful, and perfectly baked. The service was attentive but not pushy, allowing us to enjoy our meal without interruption. I also tried the veal parmigiana, which melted in my mouth! The ambiance is warm and welcoming, making it an ideal place for a family dinner. I will definitely be returning! " (*Curated Review*)
