The quality of food and service, combined with the overall experience, makes it worth every penny. Finally, the noise level was just right—not too loud, but lively enough to create a great atmosphere. We could easily hold a conversation without raising our voices, which added to the overall enjoyment. In summary, Roc's Social exceeded all our expectations in every way.
