The food was delicious, food was fresh, the service is kind and welcoming, with small check-in's on how your doing. The ambiance was absolutely amazing, comfortable, and clean. Definitely recommended. The shortage of stars is because my mothers steak was ordered medium and came over medium well. Thank you!
We went for our 19th anniversary breakfast for the first time. It was a beautiful day so we sat outside. We went because I saw on reviews that they had great French Toast. Unfortunately there is cinnamon in the batter and I'm allergic to cinnamon but the waitress, Jennifer suggested pancakes, with all of the delicious toppings that the French Toast has. It was wonderful! For sure we will revisit again and I really hope we see Jennifer again!
Great food, great drinks, great service! Delaney was our server! 10/10!! She was lovely. Dirty chai-tini- delicious. Pork Belly Polenta Eggs Benedict?!? HELL YEAH! So so so so good!! Will be back to eat that again and try more menu items.
The Rockefeller is a great and cozily decorated place with a variety of food from burgers, sandwiches, fish dishes, and salads. Their main entrees go from $15-$24. My mentee got a steak sandwich and truffle fries. I got a honey glazed salmon. My dish comes with a small patch of rice and some broccolini. The salmon and the rice were good but the broccolini was average. The whole bill came out to $70.52 (includes tax and tip). The waitresses were amiable and the food was above average. However, parking sucked. We even tried to avoid the lunch rush but this Riviera Village is a poppin place so there's always plenty of people there; parking is primarily done by meters.
Went here for the first time and I'm bummed i waited so long! It was so great. First off, food was really good. Loved the ahi nachos and fish n chips and everyone else cleared their plates so I'm assuming they concur. Ambience was chill, so bay perfection. No explanation needed. If you know, you know. They accommodated our group of 10 (mix of teens and adults/parents) happily and seamlessly... which brings me to my main point, THE SERVICE! Ashley is awesome. As a server i can appreciate amazing service, and this was it. She knew one family in our party down to their orders and was so genuine to us all. Friendly, cool, effortlessly organized and communicative. Not one misstep. Kinda great! Thanks Ashley and Rockefeller. Will definitely be back.
