Rocco's NY Pizzeria and Pasta

We have been eating here for years.
The last pizza we had was dry and they sliced the veggies on the pizza so thin they almost disappeared.
We ordered chicken fingers last night and they were awful.
I used to love their wings and fingers but the orders we got last night were the size of chicken nuggets.
We were shocked when we opened the container.
I just learned there is a new owner.
Not a good start and we will be going elsewhere.

All in all, we probably won't be coming back unless their dough recipe changes.
A good crust can save mediocre toppings, but good toppings cannot save mediocre crust. We decided to try it out after moving to the area.
We ordered a pepperoni pizza and garlic knots.
The garlic knots looked promising, but they were only seasoned on the outside and the dough is not very good- very bland and dry. The pepperoni pizza is made out of the same dough as the knots so the crust was just not very pleasant.
However, the cheese blend and the sweeter tomato sauce and the pepperoni were very delicious.
It was very satisfying just to have the toppings of the pizza. The workers were nice and the store was decent, however.

My daughter recommended that we should go there.
First off, the food is cooked fresh, so do not be in a rush.
Eat there because the food comes out piping hot and is super delicious that way! Garlic knots are unbelievable! The toppings on the pizza are seasoned, fresh tasting.
The thin crust had flavor as well.
It is easy just to put dough together without seasoning and call it crust.
Philly Cheese with onions was seasoned well and the bread was soft, airy, buttery, and yet crunchy and was delivered to our table piping hot as well as the 45 minute long wait for our lasagna.
That proves this food is fresh, hot, and yummy! Order ahead if you must, but be patient on the cooking time, it is worth it.
For a strip mall Italian place, this can go unnoticed.
There are others, but we recommend this location at Village Center Circle.
The lasagna was traditional in flavor and was well balanced between sauce, pasta, and cheese.
It got busy at 6:00 pm, so maybe order ahead.
Be nice to the employees, they were all respectful and even handed out a bit more cheesy bread, which again was so good, for our wait time.
We are going back to try out their other items.
Oh yeah, the little zeppoles are also a good small powdery donut snack.
