Ali and I went to Rocco (165 Monroe Ave., formerly The Olive Tree) for dinner and it was fantastic. We dropped in without a reservation and were happy to eat at the bar. Ali got the ziti with a side of meatballs which she loved — if I remember right: I was overwhelmed by the quality of my thick-cut pork chop special with parmesan cheese and a chili-spiced red sauce. Drinks, too, were excellent: the Stormy Monday was a great choice. Ali even liked it despite that she otherwise hates the taste of bourbon. As it ended up, we were too full for dessert.
They do everything right at Rocco. My harshest complaint is that the table can feel small. Incredibly thoughtful dishes, sharp and attentive waitstaff, and a sense that everyone who works there cares about the food and the customers.
Your a dumb smuck!!!!! What a fkn idiot.
