For a casual Sunday night get together, we ordered from Rocco’s Pizza Joint Rocco’s Pizza Joint. For 8 people, we got a Grandma Pie, a Sausage and Peppers Pie, a Baked Ziti with Broccoli, a Sausage and Meatballs Spaghetti, and a Turkey Meatball Parmigiana Hero. The delivery arrived in a reasonable amount of time and we quickly scarfed it all up.
The favorite was definitely the Grandma Pie. We all enjoyed the very garlicky sauce on the puffy fluffy dough. It would have been even better if the bottom was a little crisp.
The Sausage and Peppers pizza had a pretty good flavor but as the pizza cooled a bit, the dough got so hard to chew. Both pizzas were less oily than most, and I felt lighter after this meal than usual for a pizza meal.
I didn’t like the Turkey Meatballs and there wasn’t enough sauce and cheese for a proper Parmigiana Hero, but on the flip side, it’s pretty big.
The Spaghetti with Sausage and Meatballs was standard.
The Baked Ziti was pretty standard but the broccoli stood out for being fresh and still al dente.
I enjoyed the Grandma pizza but overall, I didn’t think it was all that memorable but if you want a lighter pizza, Rocco’s is a good choice. The prices are pretty good at $63.62 (including a $7 tip) for 8 full people.

nice pizza review!
That pizza looks to die for! Omg.
Funny, I just made pizza last night. So why am I drooling over yours?
Maybe a go-to pizza place finally?
K&S;, no, still not a go-to place.
is there some significance to the name “grandma pie”?
Grace, I don’t really know….I’ve just seen it at lots of pizza places. It’s always a square pizza with lots of garlic.
