Rockaway Beach, we need to talk about the calamari. 👀🦑

If you didn’t know, a lot of restaurants cut corners by sourcing cheap calamari from overseas. At Rocco’s, we just don’t do that. We use top-of-the-line domestic calamari because quality matters — and you can taste the difference.

Crispy, tender, golden, and available four ways: Original, Buffalo Gorgonzola, Spicy Arrabbiata, or Garlic Aioli.

Once you taste the difference, you’ll understand why our calamari is a Rockaway Beach favorite. ❤️
