Welcome to Rocca, a Michelin Starred Italian restaurant in the vibrant neighborhood of Tampa Heights. Our menu is deeply rooted in the classic Italian dining experience, underlining the undeniable connection between food and the people around the table. Chef Bryce honors traditional recipes learned in Italy, while infusing modern techniques honed working in cutting edge kitchens in New York. The coming together of the two results in flavors that are rustic, yet refined, simple, yet beautiful and approachable by nature. An innovative crudo and freshly baked bread amongst other seasonal shareable plates are the perfect place to start. Rocca’s extensive Italian wine list and innovative cocktail program are an invitation to further immerse yourself in the experience. Fresh pastas, an expertly dry aged duck or a dry aged wagyu serve as an ending to remember.Inspired by the old and the new, Rocca instills a sense of nostalgia and curiosity in every guest.

    HAD to bring the family to try the OG 1905 salad as the version I make at home is nowhere near as good! Everything was fantastic especially the plantain crusted mahi

    I celebrated my birthday at Rocca, and it was a wonderful experience! The service was exceptional, the food was absolutely delicious, and the atmosphere was beautiful and elegant. The tableside mozzarella was a highlight, and the pistachio dessert was amazing! Thank you for making my birthday dinner so special. I can’t wait to come back!

    We had a wonderful lunch at Ulele in Tampa! Everything was incredibly fresh and delicious, and the service was attentive and friendly. We enjoyed a variety of dishes, including stone crabs, chargrilled oysters, wedge salad, calamari, okra fries, and a lobster roll. Each dish was beautifully prepared and full of flavor. The waterfront setting and inviting atmosphere made the experience even more enjoyable. A fantastic spot for a leisurely lunch and definitely worth a visit. We look forward to returning!

    This is a great place for locals to hang out. They not only have great food but the service is phenomenal. It can be a little pricey - we spent $140.00 for two people without alcohol. I think it is worth it.

    The staff was amazing. My daughter walked outside to a flat tire. The entire team pulled together finding car jacks, changing her tire and just helping her out during a stressful time. The food was delicious as usual. The oysters need their own zip code because we devoured them 😊
