“ We hosted our rehearsal dinner in the upstairs space and it was exactly what we wanted! The service and food were so good (friends and family raved about the wings and mini sliders). The bartender had the best personality and Brendan the owner was so kind throughout the planning process. ”
“ We had a mixer at AJ Rocco’s. Food was excellent. Service was immaculate and most importantly they made our group of 30 feel comfortable and welcome. We’ll be back. ”
“ I heard about AJ Rocco’s from a good friend and they finally gave me the tour! We stopped in for a quick bite before a concert and the food WOW’d me! Our server gave us some great recommendations for food! We started with pizzas and they were great! Nice and thin, and fresh and hot! The wings and fries came up next and the wings were to DIE for! That sauce and how they were cooked were perfection. If and when you stop by, get the WINGS!! Our drinks were brought out quickly and overall, I really enjoyed my experience! The building is EXTREMELY beautiful inside and out! Knowing there’s an AirBnB above and a place to rent out space up top keeps this place in mind for bigger gatherings in downtown! Excellent experience with AJ Rocco’s!! ”
“ Awesome experience. We rented out the entire restaurant for a boys travel team dinner. Absolutely fantastic. Boys loved the food. Parents enjoyed the two bars - top floor and bottom. They have a great set-up and the food was excellent. I'll keep it on my list of good experiences for the future. ”
“ Went as part of a group of 4 on a recent quiet Saturday (no Cavs or Guards game), so easy to get a table. The group shared a loaded fries app (good size, quickly devoured). Amongst the group we tried dry rub wings, a side salad, a Greek salad, a Corned Beef sandwich, and the 828 Burger. All loved their choices- hats off to the chef! ”
“ AJ Rocco's is a hidden gem at the corner of E9th and Huron in Cleveland OH. Had my retirement party there that was put on by my employer and the 2nd floor event room they have is excellent for pre-game get togthers or corporate meetings. And the 2nd floor has its own bar so no running up and down the steps for drinks Service and food were outstanding, plus the atmosphere of an old Cleveland building is throughout. The owners gutted it out and built back a real gem. Check it out ”
“ My date and I stopped here for a quick bite and drink on our way to the Creed concert on a Friday night. The hosts and servers were very friendly and attentive, the food (pizza and a burger) was so good, and the music was on point for getting us ready to see Creed... think 90s/00s alt rock. We were told this place recently reopened, hopefully they continue this great service and they will go far. Highly recommend! ”
“ Nice bar, completely redone. Great service. Stopped in a few times. Started Sunday Brunch this week 10-2pm small menu but pancakes & crispy bacon delicious. ”
