Restaurant Review: Rocca

Rocca Di Papa Address: 75-79 Dulwich Village, London SE21 7BJ Telephone:0208 299 6333 Opening hours: 08:30 am - 11:30 pm Cost of a typical child’s meal: £5-8 Ratings: ****

Rocca is a warm, lovely Italian restaurant situated in the heart of Dulwich Village. I would recommend going here for lunch on a warm summer’s day, after the end of term when we break at midday. I often enjoy a visit to Rocca before a trip to Dulwich Park to play some football and ride bikes with my classmates. The venue Is very big, bright and spacious. There are tables for large groups, for parties or for all of your friends to sit at once. They also cater for smaller groups, and there is a soft seating sofa area where you can enjoy a small meal whilst playing a game of chess.

Whilst they have excellent indoor facilities they also have an outdoor dining area, decorated with authentic Italian grape vines growing around the enclosure.

If you have pets they will also cater for you both to dine here, as they have seats outside which have water bowls for dogs beside each table.

Food Now we are on to the food which varies from pasta and pizza to chicken and chips and also mussels. If you fancy Italian food, Rocca is the place to be. Do not worry about the kids’ portion sizes as the pasta meals are very big with an extra portion of unlimited cheese! The friendly staff are always on hand to top up on cheese!

If you're worried about your parents, then please reassure them that the wine served here is cheap, and imported all the way from Italy.

Service The service here is excellent. They are really attentive to the customers, frequently asking if everything is ok. It seems me that they always remember me, and call me nice names such as “Boss Man” and “Bambino”.
