Mexican Food the Rocco Taco Style – Romantic ‘Night’ Out

Eating out with our kids is one of those things that looks great on paper but, in reality, isn’t all that much fun. If you want to sit back and enjoy a drink and savor the meal, it’s best not to do it with a two-year-old who doesn’t eat anything and an eight-year-old who is bored and restless within seconds.

So what’s the solution? Date Night! And we chose a restaurant in South Florida. And take a look at our Rocco Taco Review in Florida!

As a continuation of our romantic ‘night’ out (technically, it’s afternoon since I don’t trust anyone to put my baby to bed), we picked Rocco’s Tacos on Clematis Street in West Palm Beach to be the hot spot for us.

Mexican food is one of those types of cuisine that can be extremely amorous. Maybe it’s the warm colors, the fun presentation, or just the way everything is meant to be shared. But there’s no denying that a romantic night out at a Rocco Taco can be incredibly special.

Rocco Taco Review

I absolutely love sitting outside on a famous street, watching people and action pass right by me. I can do this for hours on end. Luckily, when we arrived, there was an excellent spot for us. And with a pitcher of White Wine Sangria, I sat back and enjoyed my husband and the afternoon.

Rocco’s Tacos’ attentive staff ensures every dining experience feels special.

We started our meal after checking out Rocco’s Tacos menu, with their classic Guacamole dish. I think it’s the most common thing to begin with since they have a station just for it and the waiter said it as though it was a must. And I’m not one to say no to good Guac, so we started the meal out right.

Next, my hubby asked for the ceviche special – he’s a considerable ceviche fan. And he loved it!

And, of course, I had to have the special Rocco’s Tacos. I always love to taste what the restaurant’s signature dishes are, and I wasn’t disappointed with the choice. You can pick either chicken, veggies, beef, or shrimp. I got the shrimp order, and it was great!

When the waiter came around to see if we wanted anything else, we were so stuffed from all the food that we had to pass, even on coffee/tea. Needless to say, the platters are large and super affordable.

You can’t be dining on Mexican food in Florida, watching people and action pass by, without a little bit of dessert. I had to check out the famous Tres Leches Cake and Mexican Chocolate Brownie

So was it romantic? Yep! We did have a great time enjoying the food, drinks, and atmosphere of Rocco’s Tacos. And that’s all that matters when it comes to a romantic ‘night’ out.

My Take On Rocco Taco:

This was a great way to spend some ‘couple time’ together. Even though I find Valentines Day to be a bit cheesy (do you really need to be dictated when to have romantic time together), this would be the perfect spot for a fun, tasty date with your honey- anytime of the year!

Tip:

We arrived relatively early and got our spot outside. The restaurant inside, which is quite large, was still partially filled.

By the time we were ready to leave, a couple of hours later, the place was so packed there was literally a line outside waiting to get in. My advice is to make a reservation! The people who reserved were walked right in. And with the crowd and action, it was easy to feel like a happening spot.
