Over the weekend, my family and I went to Rocco’s At The Brick, a newer place that opened where the famous Brick Hotel used to reside. My family decided to try out Rocco’s for my grandmother’s 93rd birthday.

Walking in, there were obvious renovations since the last time we were at The Brick Hotel. Whereas the old restaurant looked as if it were about to collapse, Rocco’s underwent a complete renovation and had the hotel looking as good as new.

I decided to be lame and go with the Rocco Burger, which was pretty good. My brother decided to get the Tomahawk steak, a massive piece of meat, and at that point, I was a bit disappointed with my order, but that was on me.

Everyone seemed happy with their meal, and the service was excellent. The manager even came over to ask how our meal was, even if it was for five seconds.

After dinner we were supposed to go back to the house for cake, but Grandma forgot and drove home, so that was the end of that.

Overall, we had a great experience at Rocco’s, and I would definitely recommend it to anyone in the area.
