Returning patrons, celebrating daughter’s 18th with grandparents. We all love Rococo and once again we weren’t disappointed. The cuisine was exquisite and were especially appreciative of the vegan menu. My daughter enjoyed her cocktail and the drinks list is fantastic. The staff were attentive and fun. Great night out.
