    Rocco’s never disappoints, the food.. especially the table-side guacamole.. and he drinks … how about a picture of margaritas?!! The atmosphere and the service all are great. They have lots of great options I live the vegetarian mushroom tacos, the guy next to me had steak and he said it was great. Not just taco’s lots of great options. We sat at the bar and the bartender was awesome! Friendly, professional and amazing service. I am sorry I forgot her name because she deserves praise! Ask about their secret for storing guacamole!!!

    Such a fun place to eat regardless if you drink or not. We had some excellent Mexican food here. Make sure to order the guacamole because they make it right next to your table. We ate at about 5:00 in the evening on a weekday and it wasn't busy at all. I can see how this place gets busy in the evening. So go early if you can! When we first got there they asked us if we wanted to be inside or outside and we decided to be outside but realized that it was flimsy plastic lawn chair for their setup outside so we asked to come back inside. They quickly accommodated.

    I can do reviews again! Someone didn't like the truth and reported it. The truth is, Rocco's here on Las Olas is literally the best place to eat. The food was so good I forgot to take a photo so all you get is my empty plate. This is after the chips and salsa, btw you won't find better salsa Verde anywhere. You also will not find better tacos, maybe even food for that matter. The last time I had tacos this good was at a little vegan place in East Atlanta. Even if you don't go when there's a special, there almost always is, the prices are super affordable and especially when you compare them to other restaurants in the area. Go for the margarita specials. Thank me later. My only regret is that I have but one belly to fill because I really enjoyed eating the food. Look at my history of reviews, I do this because I'm tired of places getting tons of money for an average experience while awesome places could be more awesome if we all knew how awesome they were. I don't do paid reviews because of integrity. Edit: Just came back and stuffed myself again. The experience was just as awesome as the first visit. This time I remembered photos. The other restaurants are mostly empty again. Delicious.

    Great service from Deanna and great food! I got a shrimp bowl, my friend got the beef tacos, and we had excellent fresh table side guacamole. Shrimp has a LITTLE kick to it. I don’t like spicy and I was able to eat it just fine.

    Tacos here are great, and the guacamole is a must-have. They make it fresh for each table and customize it depending on how spicy you want it. The menu has a wide selection and everything we tried was fantastic. Another bonus was that it was one of the only places around with the kitchen still open after 9pm on a weeknight. The staff was also very polite and attentive, however it did take a little longer than expected for our food to come out. It’s also a bit pricey for the value, but so are most places on Las Olas.

    Some of the best tacos & tequila you will find in Fort Lauderdale! Super cool atmosphere! It was a great time all around. Tasty fresh Mexican food and well-made margaritas! The tableside guacamole is highly recommended. We stopped in for lunch without a reservation and were seated right away. Open for lunch, dinner, and drinks at the bar. Great happy hour specials. Rocco's Tacos is the place to be any time of day!

    As I write this review, we haven’t even ordered mains yet but the service, drinks, and appetizers have been out of this world. Jason aka SauceGod took care of us from the moment we sat down, recommending food and drink deals and making sure our needs were met. Super friendly, I feel like I could be friends with this guy. Everything tastes fresh, homemade, and well worth the visit.

    Really great margaritas, really good food! Guac made at the table! Lots of tequila to chose from. The Cadillac margarita was tasty! I would pick a few for the night if you never been. Good open atmosphere, clean, and friendly staff. UPDATED: Any chance Rocco's can expand in the North East, Philly Jersey Area?

    Absolutely phenomenal food! And gluten free? What a selection!!! I had the pork enchiladas, and they were out of this world. Want Mexican food on Las Olas? Don't go anywhere else. Recommend Rocco's Tacos 20/10.

    I had the Mushroom Tacos, my partner had the Shrimp Quesadilla. We shared a Guacamole, which was awesome, but a little pricey. The Tacos & Quesadilla were both loved, and the price of those was great. I wasn't a fan of the rice & beans, so next time I'll order just the tacos by themselves. Atmosphere was wonderful. Service was impeccable.

    Hostess can be a little more friendly at the time of interacting with customers since they are the first impression customers get arriving to a restaurant. We sat in the backyard were they serve Happy Hour and regular menu as well. It was just great! So much fun.. I had the Volcanic (black cherry) Margarita which was absolutely delicious!!! They also have nice things on the Happy Hour Menu for food! We tried the tacos and they were very tasty (great presentation by the way). Good service and good atmosphere at Rocco’s.. We’ll come back..

    We got recommended by other friends that this place has good Mexico foods. It might be a little bit pricey, but you must try them. We finally went there for lunch today. I have to say. The atmosphere was very nice. The prices are a little bit high. However, their foods were very good. The service was good, but they need to be faster. Especially lunch time. People need to go back to work. The foods were fresh and tasty. One of there gimmick is to mix the fresh guacamole at your table. They were awesome with the chips. The overall experience is excellent. The only reason we didn’t give 5 Stars is the price. We will definitely recommend others We gave them 9.0 out of 10 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

    Upscale Mexican restaurant with a very cool and trendy atmosphere along with a huge Tequila collection. Awesome bartender when we visited who made great $5 margaritas. Chips with a Paprika flavoring and the Salsa was definitely worth paying for.. probably best chips and salsa I have had in a Mexican restaurant. Fish and Pork Taco's were also top notch and tasty. Expect to spend about $25 plus for a meal and drinks.. but IMHO well worth it.

    We found Rocco’s Tacos and fell in love because the chicken wet burrito, table side guac, chips and salsa as well as the habanero margaritas are all magnificent. We come back every week because we absolutely adore Allan! His level of attention to detail, professionalism and dedication to excellent service is beyond compare. If you dine at the Las Olas location, definitely ask for Allan. The manager, Joshua personally checks in with his guests to make sure everything is great. If I could rate higher all around, I would.

    Rocco tacos on Las Olas Blvd. is one of the best restaurants in all of Fort Lauderdale. I can say this after living here for 23 years although I regrettably forget the name of my waitress. She’s one of the best waitresses I’ve ever had in my life she was friendly courteous, had a smile on her face, she talked with us at the table just so amazing. I hope Rocco‘s tacos recognizes her ability and her customer satisfaction and help her grow within their corporation. The food was amazing and delicious

    Food was incredible! We also loved the decor and service. The place was bustling but never too loud, great atmosphere and awesome food. Price was reasonable for the incredible value. Will visit again next time I’m in Florida!

    It was my first time at Rocco's Tacos and proved to be perfect for a catchup with a cherished friend... our waiter was on point with enthusiasm, friendliness, and menu knowledge...this location had interesting art pieces throughout that kept me looking forward to seeing what else. The best was the guacamole made right in front of us. Fresh and made to our liking...and refills were free! We ordered from all you can eat taco Tuesday menu and I could only manage 7 tacos...I tried all on offer and loved every one!

  • 5/5 J T. 7 months ago on Google
    Came for brunch, they had all you can drink mimosas, rose and bloody marys. Our server Journey was fantastic she gave us fabulous recommendations and was very attentive to our table of 14. Kerry made us our guacamole table side and it was delicious. We ate the chicken and churro dish and the taco burger. The food was very fresh and seasoned well. Drinks were always full. Great prices and great portions. I’m so happy they were able to to accommodate our large group last minute. Thank you to the kitchen staff for a fantastic meal. Will be recommending this spot and a loyal customer for life.

    Rocco’s have excellent Mexican food, drinks… the bar is great. Pretty good designed restaurant. But the waitresses can be more friendly

  • 5/5 Dan M. 4 months ago on Google
    If you rate this place less than five stars something is wrong with you. Excellent service (thank you Cara!), tasty dishes, fantastic atmosphere. Watermelon Marg is top notch. Chicken wings are more like chicken legs with a sweet, smokey, spicy sauce (if you are the owner / manager reading this review please send me the recipe for that sauce!). Tacos are loaded with meat. Chips and queso = delish. All in all top notch experience!

  • 4/5 Paul D. 8 months ago on Google
    Great mexican spot on Las Olas. The atmosphere is very unique and the margaritas are fantastic (strawberry basil - highly recommend). Service was fine, nothing exceptional but our drinks were never empty. The guac with their homemade chips was amazing. However, we didn't get the tableside guac experience. The food afterwards was rather dull. If they came up with a way to dress up their "rice and beans" that come with the taco platter it could be great. Will return on margarita Monday!

  • 4/5 Wesley R. 10 months ago on Google
    Nice place amazing location and ambiance, but it’s way too crowded and takes time to find a table. If you want to dinner here, make sure to arrive early or be ready to wait. The food quality and prices, along with the service are good however. It worth the wait if you really like Mexican food.

  • 3/5 shirley “shirlz” f. 6 months ago on Google
    I was really excited to try but it kind of missed the mark for me. The drinks were ok. Passionfruit margarita didn’t taste as such. Coco cabana was a better choice. The cheese dip needed to be sent back bc It was so watery. Our sever was nice and agreed it shouldn’t have came out that way. It was ok but i would have preferred that it be served with chips for a crunch The pork belly was overdone and had an almost burnt taste The esquite was ok The shrimp tacos just ok In general food that I got lacked seasoning. I do like that they provide hot sauces but either way food needed seasoning Maybe I would return for happy hour bc I really hate splurging on food that ends up not tasting how I wanted. This was a mediocre 1st time experience with a high bill

  • 5/5 Melissa Di G. 11 months ago on Google
    Best quesedilla! It was amazing! Ice heard of this restaurant before but it was my first time trying it. I have no regrets. Literally the best I've ever had. The service from Robert was absolutely amazing and her referred me an amazing drink. He was so helpful with the menu and I recommend visiting if you're in the south of Florida!

  • 2/5 Joan 10 months ago on Google
    It truly saddens me that the high-level standard that I placed on this establishment was brought down. The place had a very warm element to it with fun hip songs playing and a beautiful display of a liquors on the walls all throughout the restaurant. After being seated, we were not greeted by the lady who was making fresh guacamole for the table. It’s a shame that we didn’t get to converse with her because this was the most fascinating thing I’ve seen ever done by any restaurant I’ve been to. The guac was fresh and made to perfection, honestly this was my favorite part from the whole night. I decided to try the “Vegan Al Pastor” it has ingredients such as “PAOW” a plant based protein, pineapple salsa, onion, cilantro, lime. Due to the multiple elements placed on the corn tortilla it fell apart upon me grabbing onto it to take a bite. After taking a bite the taco just lacked flavor and was really upsetting to my stomach. Unfortunately, being a vegan, I set the bar high when it comes to flavor and the fusion of spices and ingredients mixed together, this lacked all of the above. I also decided to have the yellow rice and black beans on the side ,the rice was pretty crunchy in my opinion and lacked taste. It’s as though they just boiled rice and just plated it. No spices, no flavor no nothing. The only reason I’m giving them a two star rating is because I really enjoyed watching the guacamole being freshly made and the hostess being super sweet when we arrived to the establishment when it comes to the food, it would get a 0 out of 10 from me.

    What a lab amazing restaurant!!! I was transported as soon as I walked in. Transported to a magical world filled with culture decor and tequila!!! An amazing cocktail menue with the finest of spirits!!! They have it all and more. Great food choices from tacos to fish you won’t be disappointed. Delivered on every bite!!!

  • 5/5 Cami T. 9 months ago on Google
    Nachos here are delicious and vibes are great, get the table side guacamole if you are a fan (though it can be pricey). Also recommend the salad. Can get spicey, make sure you ask!

  • 5/5 Von Chic S. 1 year ago on Google
    My first time coming to this restaurant. It was a Tuesday and I heard Taco Tuesdays are good here. When we arrived, we had just missed the Taco Tuesday special that ended at 10:45pm. The restaurant was decorated beautifully with authentic Mexican deco. The tacos are large and they taste good. They had a DJ. Overall a great experience. Will definitely come back.

  • 5/5 Bricia S. 1 year ago on Google
    Pretty good tacos, I was a bit hesitant to order tacos because I am always scared of how the pork is cooked. However, I survived and they were delicious, I ordered a set of traditional tacos. The margarita pitcher was also very good, sweet and flavory I got the mango flavor. The tacos here are definitely a 8/10 and this is coming from a Mexican who has had authentic food all her life. A heads up though, the prices are on the higher side and you are paying for the environment, good ambiance and music.

  • 5/5 Stephanie S. 2 years ago on Google
    I like this place a lot. The atmosphere is fun, we had a great server today. Pitcher of margarita was great if not that spicy. I really liked my vegan al pastor tacos. That is not an option I'm offered too often. Usually potato, mushroom, beyond meat....nachos were tasty too.

  • 5/5 Sandy R. 2 years ago on Google
    This place was one of my favorite while on vacation in the Fort Lauderdale area. The guacamole was AMAZING! The service was great! We had drinks, dinner & dessert, everything was great!

  • 3/5 Kim D. 2 years ago on Google
    Only three stars because of the company I had. The server..... wasn't attentive, forgot to put in orders, forgot to put in drinks, forgot condiments, forgot to leave particular items off tacos (allergic) and the list goes on. I'm not a complainer but it felt as though she was doing it deliberately. We were a party of 11. If she needed help, she should have said so and gotten it. Writing down the orders would have also helped. I'll go again to see if the service is really THAT BAD or if it was just her..

  • 5/5 Anjii 2 years ago on Google
    First time visiting this restaurant. It is one of the best Mexican restaurant I have even been to. Went there to celebrate our friend's birthday. Black Diamond is must have drink. Guacamole and chips, seafood fajita (forgot dish name :-P) and chicken fajita were delicious. Our server Alicia was so sweet. loved her. Would definitely go again.

  • 2/5 Lisi G. 2 years ago on Google
    Ordered takeout. They don't update when the food is ready which means our food was ready maybe 40-30 min before i picked it up and of course half the tacos had to be thrown out because they were too soggy. The guacamole was brown. Unbelievable. Did they make it yesterday? Maybe if you eat there the food and service is better. Don't do take out/delivery. Disappointing.

  • 5/5 Andrew T. 2 years ago on Google
    This place is very neat. They have a small valet lot on the side of the restaurant and a nice patio out front. The inside of the restaurant is elegant for a Mexican restaurant. We had a large party and were seated in a private room that had amazing fixtures. The chips are different. They have a layer dark red spice coating on the chips. There is a guacamole server that makes it fresh at your table. I enjoyed the quesadilla, rice, and beans. Our server was remarkable as well. I left this place quite impressed with our dinner selection.

  • 4/5 Renee T. 2 years ago on Google
    I enjoy this restaurant chain and have visit a few different locations so far. We went to this fort Lauderdale location for lunch as an early birthday celebration. Food was decent, it is definitely smart to watch their deals and pick times to eat out accordingly. I'm sure I'll be back at some point, but it's not likely a place I will frequent.

  • 5/5 Eboni P. 2 years ago on Google
    Oh my god.. Where do i begin. Our waitress Christina was amazing. She was very knowledgeable. Everything she recommended was perfect. First you must try the table side fresh made guacamole... Made like you want it. Second our waitress recommend cocktails must try the watermelon kiss and the black diamond. Third the shrimp quesadilla...it was prepared superbly. Forth our dinner was amazing. All i can say is the food was hot a fresh. We even called the manager to the table to give Christina a good review.. The manager was very nice and welcoming. I will visit location again and i will recommend to my friends and family.
