Rocca Pizza & Pasta Metzerstr. Berlin in Berlin

This is a small, cozy, local Italian restaurant in Prenzlauer Berg across from the Meyer’s Hotel. Great pasta dishes and pizza, as well as reasonably priced good wine. The proportions were reasonable and the pasta and pizza very good. If you are in the neighborhood and want to experience a truly small neighborhood restaurant with notable good food without a tourist crowd, you should check this place out. We had no problem getting in on a Tuesday evening in late October, but I would make a reservation for more than two people. The inside is quite small (maybe 6 tables) but they have outside seating as well.

I've lived in Prenzlauer for a long time and am always disappointed by all the tourist traps that lurk here. Trattoria Rocco is one of the few bright spots. Good pizza, good pasta, fair prices, extremely friendly and courteous service and always a safe option!

I would definitely recommend the restaurant. The food was delicious. And the terms were great

Perfect service, the owners are very kind and the food is amazing

Very fast, super friendly and great pizza

Food: Pizza Diavolo only slightly spicy but absolutely delicious… I can only recommend it 😍 Service: Food came very quickly, Very friendly was good overall, unless you attach great importance to etiquette (table cleaned with a hand brush while we were still sitting🤣) Ambiance: just a small restaurant, still a bit expandable but extremely cozy 👍🏼

A nice little restaurant within walking distance from Alexanderplatz. Lots of choice between pizza and pasta. The food was great, service very friendly and quick. Price/Quality was excellent. In the weekend it is best to make reservations. A quiet place to enjoy some Italian food.

Very hot homemade bread, well-equipped toilet and very good price-performance ratio.

A fresh salad please, just lettuce, cucumber and tomatoes and onions. You get an old salad from the counter with corn and olives. I don't know what happened to the people.

Great store, good and friendly staff.

Great food, cosy atmosphere and quick and pleasant service. The prices are also an absolute bargain for the amount of food which you get. Would 100% recommend to anyone staying in the local area.

Visiting Berlin from the USA. Recommended by my daughter who is an exchange student. She likes the pizza, but I had the Rocca Special baked ziti dish and it was outstanding! Had a bit of hot pepper in it, which I absolutely loved. Also, they realized that I spoke very little German and went out of their way to communicate with me in English. Very welcoming staff.

Very tasty and very friendly staff. Only recommended!!

The restaurant is highly recommended if you want to enjoy excellent pizza. The service from the owner and his wife is extremely friendly and individual.

Absolutely no recommendation and don't know where the good reviews come from. Super bad pizza unfortunately :( Far too expensive and more like cheese with pizza (far too much cheese - more like a lump) and little taste and the toppings weren't fresh either. I ordered and it was no longer warm (not even lukewarm).

So cozy very sweet service and amazing pizza

Pizza was 11/10. No skimping on cheese, the edge is nice and thin but super soft and crunchy, salami is very fine. Mmm. Also very nice staff - great!

Excelent italian restaurant. Pasta al forno are amazing! Excelent prices. Good wines, dessert and an amazing mint liquor to finish meal. Staff is really nice as well. Congratulation!

Great food. Cozy place. The bathroom is very clean with lots of extras like diapers,…. Very friendly service.

I ordered online and delivery was already 30 minutes over the stated delivery time (+1 hour). When I called they said it was a mistake and I had to pick it up. The food was already paid for. When I picked it up I had to ask what the song costs were, which I also paid. Then a reaction to it. Personally, I find it really dubious; for me it's a matter of course that I only have to pay for the service that I ordered.

Very nice food, the price are average We really enjoy the experience

The place is great 👌. Food very good. Pasta perfectly prepared and tastes in Italian style. Just in time to load up on carbohydrates before the BMW Berlin Marathon 💪. The service was nice and very friendly. During our entire stay in Berlin, we only ate here 🍝. I recommend it 👌👌👌

Very nice!! The pizzas and pastas are very good. The attentive staff. Very pleasant little restaurant. We will come back!

Simply magical, excellent place with very friendly treatment. If you are Mexican or Italian I highly recommend it! Delicious pizza and pasta.

ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS pasta and pizza! It was great while carb loading for the marathon but we would definitely go back without needing that excuse. Thanks for a delicious meal!

Very friendly service, great food, great atmosphere. Ideal Italian. ♥️

A great place to eat at a good price. Abundant and tasty portions. Lovely and helpful owner and waitress

food was brilliant, and the staff were very friendly and helpful 😊

"This restaurant, which has already impressed us with its delicious pizzas, continues its perfection with its desserts. The tiramisu in particular is a true masterpiece! With its lightness, the balanced coffee taste and the soft cream layer, it takes you right away with every bite Italy. A must for anyone with a sweet tooth!"

Amazing food and the staff were attentive.

So I have to say, we've come a long way there because of the many good reviews. Unfortunately we were very disappointed on site. The food wasn't tasty and the ingredients on the pizza weren't really fresh. There were also fruit flies buzzing around, which doesn't really indicate a clean kitchen. The vegan pizza was praised several times in the reviews, unfortunately I cannot confirm that. The service from (I guess boss) was very nice but the waitress had ruined the whole ambience. She probably had a child who she parked outside in a stroller in cool temperatures. We saw it after some time as it was there alone. When he called for his mother, she came. But observing these conditions was unbelievable. The child was actually left on the sidewalk a few meters away from the restaurant. Somehow the whole thing was just strange and fit the whole location. We would definitely not come back.

I've had the need for a good carbonara for a while. The reviews here were good and the food was actually solid. I was full. BUT: The waiter comes over to take the order and has headphones in his ear. I find that very rude. In the kitchen, which is located directly in/at the entrance, the cook(?) was making a phone call over the telephone loudspeaker. This absolutely disrupts the atmosphere and is also rude. Further to the service: the bread, which was very good by the way, was served very shortly before the main course. Speaking of the main course: there are NO starters. :/ I would have liked olive oil/balsamic vinegar to go with the bread itself; there wasn't. The ambience: small and not so fine. The mirror inside looks like 8 people brushed their teeth in front of it. A fat spider complete with web has made itself comfortable in the ceiling light. There were breadcrumbs everywhere on the chair and around me. The music, which really contributes a lot to the ambience, was, as already mentioned, disturbed by phone calls and the constant on and off of the music was annoying. The flies! Small, annoying flies everywhere that ended up spoiling my beer because they went swimming there. I would also like to highlight the selection of hygiene products in the bathroom. Always a good thing! Conclusion: Eating out locally? No thanks, not again. Order food? If you don't know the circumstances, that's fine.

Thank you for the friendly business, nice atmosphere and food ☺️🙏

Great pizzas, super clean and cozy and very polite staff. Recommended warmly!

Super delicious pizza and good service 👍🏻

Very tasty vegan pizza, super friendly staff and a well-equipped toilet with lots of hygiene products 😍

Das Essen ist lecker aber halt auf dem Niveau einer Kantine. Manchmal besser, manchmal schlechter. Positiv Sie verwenden nur noch Bio-Fleisch, Negativ Sie benutzen für Soucen leider Fertigprodukte. Wenn es Kartoffeln gibt, werden diese leider nicht geschält. Das Schnitzel am Mittwoch ist Super, aber meistens auch sehr trocken. Es gibt viel Potential nach oben, Schaun wir mal....

Mega delicious food and friendly service.

Delicious food and nice musical accompaniment would be a pleasure again.

A great shop that serves traditional good Italian food! The service was first class friendly and welcoming! We'll be back!

We had such nice time. The staff was friendly. The service was good and food was tasty.

The service was great. The food was big and fulfilling. We had a great time.

1st time in Germany and wanted somewhere to eat. Looked at loads.of.reviees and everyone said this place was brilliant so thought I'd take family.. Am I PLEASED we did.. food absolutely fantastic.... Service perfect and to sit out side was amazing.... If you are after good honest food at reasonable prices this is the place.... Worth the 10 mins walk from hotel.. and will come.back!!!! Ty

SERIOUSLY THE BEST PIZZA JOINT IN ALL BERLIN!! the quality and the quantity of the ingredients is phenomenal, not to mention the sizes of these pizza are insane 2 pizzas barely fit in the table to give you an idea how big they are, i HIGHLY recommend the margarita or Mista pizza, beers are so cheap! 3€ a glass! Amazing customer service shout-out to our waiter Mustafar i hope i spelled it right, this guy went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect! Before you know it he was standing next to us refilling out drinks. We came here several times during our stay and we are definitely coming back without a shadow of a doubt!

Wonderful food with a pleasant atmosphere! Would go back again

Great service, I have rarely had such a good and filling pizza in Berlin for a long time. Highly recommended, I'm looking forward to trying pasta next time. Tiramisuf fans must have eaten this here... a dream!!!

Fine pizza & pasta, great salad, the beer could be a little cooler. We will remember the warm service 😄 5 people, 5x satisfied 5 stars

A wonderful taste that I will definitely not forget on my short trip to Berlin. I hope you keep it up,👏

Their pizza is very tasty and very great service super I love this place

Really cozy restaurant and super delicious food. The employees are very friendly and try to do everything right for you. Will definitely come back!

The vegan salami and vegetable pizzas are HIGHLY recommended! Large portions and really tasty, the service was also great🍕🍕

Delicious food and super nice service.

The first time I came here I took a very common pizza and my dad had a very amazing pasta. The day before we left I forced my parents to go here one last time and I indulged myself in the amazing pasta(scampi). I have NEVER had such a great pasta I would highly recommend this place!

Food is delicious!! Service is very friendly. We returned a second time in our mini trip. So tasty

Very good food. Especially the lasagna. But also the past Friendly service. Affordable price

Excellent food, it was really, really tasty Great service and homely hospitality👑👑

Perfect place, the food is very very good, the host was very kind and welcoming. Highly recommend.

Maybe not the first place you choose to eat. Berlin is a big city and this restaurant is located on a street corner. Service is very friendly and the food is fantastic!!! Because I was in Berlin for a few days, I ate here twice. I have never had spaghetti 🍝 Gamba so delicious. Highly recommended

Very good food & friendly service!

We went there for dinner with the family and shared pizza, pasta and salad. The selection is very classic and the food is really good. Finally there was a tiramisu.

We had a great time, the pizza is excellent, an outrageous 10.

Restaurant on the corner of Prenzlauer Allée and Metzer Strasse, a little hidden but deserving a lot of visibility! The waiter is very friendly and will do his best to ensure you have a good meal. We had a plate of Carbonara pasta and a plate of Rocca Spezial pasta, the portions were generous, very good quality and were served with slightly warm focaccia. If you're looking for a nice little Italian restaurant around Berlin Mitte, look no further!

Great pizza and everything was great

Delicious food and very good services!

Friendly people and nice food. You can share a pizza with 2 or 3 people.

Very friendly and food are delicious!

Had a fantastic experience in this restaurant. Both in terms of service and food! Went there for dinner 2 nights in a row, and even got dessert on the house!:) I rarely write reviews, so being convinced by this restaurant says it all. Highly recommended in the most literal sense of the word!

We initially went here for dinner because it was close to our accommodation, and because the reviews were very good. We were blown away by the food, it was amazing! The pizza was generously topped and the pasta was incredibly creamy, warm and rich in flavor. We even decided to go back the next day ;) , and were received enthusiastically by the same waiter. He took excellent care of us all evening! After our main course he offered us the tiramisu, on the house! A huge surprise and we thought it was great. The tiramisu tasted perfect, it also contained no egg or alcohol, which I liked! At the end of the evening we left a generous tip, really because this restaurant fully deserves it. What fantastic food for more than reasonable prices. We felt more than at home here. Thank you for your good care, we would love to come back when we are in Berlin!

Best food and incredibly good service. Very generous! Greetings from Norway

I recommend everyone who passes by to come and eat pizza.

I would say it was the best pizza I ate in Berlin. The waiter guys were really friendly

Very nice food and quick and friendly service in a pretty street, good for lunch and dinner with family and friends!

super tasty.. you can tell by the taste that everything is of high quality… super clean… very nice service… will come back

Super delicious food, came after 10 minutes and was still hot - the waiter was also very polite and accommodating, super cute restaurant and absolute recommendation!!

We ordered the Diavola and the Mista pizzas and they were absolutely delicious. Ingredients were so fresh and tasty and lovely crispy dough. We went early at 6pm so we can't really comment on the atmosphere as it was quiet but the staff were very friendly and the food came out super quick.

The tiramisu is the best in Berlin, the ambience is great and the owner is very friendly, hospitable and attentive. Full points

It was very pleasant. Good food and nice live music!

The food arrived on time. The pizza was amazing!! I never had such a good pizza in hoel germany!!

10/10 pizza. Great value, great flavor

An honest Italian, super tasty and not just one that makes you look fancy. I'll always be happy to come back to eat as soon as I'm back in Berlin. Unfortunately there isn't such a great Italian restaurant in Hamburg.

Delicious food! We'd love to come back! Very nice and courteous service!

Absolutely beautiful restaurant! Food was amazing and the service was outstanding would definitely recommend. Me and my friends just came from Italy and it was just as good or even better !

Superb place in Berlin to eat pizza. The terrace is pleasant, perfect for enjoying sunny days. The atmosphere is warm and friendly. The pizzas are delicious, with crispy dough and fresh ingredients. I highly recommend !

Was the yummiest pasta !!! The service was phenomenal, we had the most kindest waiter ! Will be going back again…. And again!!

One of the best restaurants where I have been served, commendable service, we come from interrail and the quality of the food is excellent.

Great waiter, delicious food and at a good price

Very good food and affordable price. Good atmosphere, very friendly waiter and perfect for kids coming from interrail.

Good food, great service and good price. In short, highly recommended.

Our waiter was so lovely and attentive, would certainly come back.

Lovely atmosphere, the food was nice. The waiter was very friendly and was very patient with our broken German. Also there was pleasant live guitar music.
