I'm not sure how this is rated so high, but ok. The pizza is bad. It's soggy and falls apart. It borders on watery. It takes a VERY long time to get the pizza. The place itself is cluttered and full of signs about how you should expect everything to take a long time and be bad. No Joke, that is a decorating motif. So, if you are in the market for a bad pizza that takes all day to arrive in a place that looks like tables squeezed into a supply closet this is the place to go. If you want to do better, go 20 minutes in any direction and have a better experience. Is what it is. read more

Excellent sandwiches - plenty of fillings on the cheese steak hot fries and laughter withe the staff and fellow customers. Great ambiance for us out of towners read more

I ordered the pizza cheese steak, since when do you put ground beef on a cheese steak, . Steakums were created for this reason!

Well worth the hype and drive. Nice small pizza joint that stays slammed. Pizza, cheesesteak, Italian, lasagna and fries were all fantastic. Got carry out and order was ready when they said. Very clean and decent on the inside. Will get Chicago pizza and gelato next time. Small town with Fort Ritchie across the street to explore read more

So we're visiting from DC and ordered a lot of food. The lady on the phone was amazing. The best customer service and was very nice when taking the order. Then her daughter and another young man delivered our food. Very nice and accommodating. Let's get to the good part...the deep dish was heavy and very good, wings were great and the chicken pizza was good as well. The salad was flavorful and after a couple bites, we were full. Great place, great service and a good experience! Thank you! read more

In the middle of nowhere, had nothing to choose from --- but their pizza is delicious! And, they are not cheap with the toppings. Well exceed our expectations. The two of us finished the whole large pizza. read more

Thanks for making us feel like family. My two girls was able to see Jesus at work by visiting this establishment. Ya see, we posted a picture when we arrived after crossing the state of MD to get here. The owner seen the picture and made the server aware. He had a suprise for us. Georgia, the blonde said "Daddy, Jesus is at work again." You always teach us it's better to be nice. Your always nice Daddy and now you get a surprise! That couldn't happen without Jesus on your side. That girl will melt your heart. Harper said, "I bet it's a dessert!" She was right. 3 chocolate cannolis and 2 lollipops. This is amazing! I take my girls to get a real pizza and they bring up Jesus and see the lessons learned were brought to life. Nothing but amazing, just like that PIZZA! I can not thank you enough. From the food to the hospitality, everything was top notch. We will be back! read more

Stopped to try their pizza... but when I saw a cheese-steak sub being made - I said wait a minute - Have to try that! Yes, great sub. Not Philly style, but great! Sliced rib eye I think, no grizzle, seasoned perfect, grilled onion, mayo, mozzarella cheese on a toasted bun - served hot! The pic does it no justice. Nice, friendly, helpful staff - I'm go back to try the pizza later. I have driven by several times, but was a little apprehensive to go in... The inside is stuffed with everything! Hard to get out if someone is ordering. Too many tables, very crowded, hard to get around. Clean, but well used. I can handle it... If you are an elitist... This is not for you. I love this place! read more

This pizza is okay at best... The service has some left to be desired. We ordered 3 pizzas for delivery a few weeks ago and they told us the wait would be an hour - that's fine, it's a Friday night, you guys are busy. 15 minutes later, we get a call from Rocky's saying the pizza will still be an hour and do we still want it. Of course we did, we were hungry. We were then informed that it was delayed because we ordered 3 gourmet pizzas. 1. I don't really see why it's necessary to blame the customer, 2. We ordered a meat lovers, a 4 cheese and a veggie pizza... gourmet on any level is a stretch. When we got the pizza it was fine, not winning any awards, but decent. I will say however eat it while it's fresh, because it didn't reheat overly great. Would I get it again? Maybe? But I'll probably try some other options first. read more

The best pizza around! The crust is done, nice and crispy. Great service. We get mushroom and it's loaded with mushrooms. They also serve Coke products, Diet Coke. It doesn't look like much from the outside (or the inside) but it's definitely worth visiting. Only $16 for a medium pizza and 2 drinks. It's one of our favorite places to eat in the area. read more

Tried. Rocky's for the first time. I has The Super, a fettuccine. and seafood dish my husband had baked manicotti. In my opinion the success of an Italian meal is in the sauce. Theirs was the best hands down I've ever had. The in read more

Best pizza in the area, hands down. Whoever commented "not much to choose from, just pizza," slipped a nut. It's a far more extensive menu than your average pizza joint, and anything but average. They make no bones about not seeking to be big people pleasers, but that has to be taken in the context of the food speaking for itself so much that you don't need flattering staff to convince you that you're having a worthy experience. Real Italians making real Italian food, really well. 3 styles of pizza crusts, enormous calzones and strombolis, and cheesesteaks better than the best I've had in Philly. Lots of pasta dishes too. Someone commented, "good, but not a traditional Philly cheesesteak," - I actually felt it took the traditional fare to next level perfection with higher quality ingredients and a perfectly textured bun (Rocky's Special introduces the welcome addition of bacon to the scrumptious mix.) The prices are more than fair and the portions are exceedingly generous. My only caution: eating in restaurant proved the best because the bread portions of our order got soggy attempting to transport them. I didn't have this problem when they delivered, so there's clearly some element of human error on my part. Thank you, Rocky's we'll be back (again and again and again...) read more

Customer service piece is terrible. They seem to feed family first before customers. The wait time is too long for cheese sticks and pizza

Great pizza and wings! If you want a challenge, try the bomb! The decor is country as it sits across from old Fort Ritchie. The service is great. read more

Always the best pizza, we've never been disappointed. Great people and location. The sandwiches are great if you're not a pizza person, and it's hard to decide if you like both! read more

My daughter competed in the Fort Ritchie Triathlon yesterday and they had pizza at the finish for the athletes. Usually the post race food isn't the best. However my daughter and her friends got this pizza and we all had a "bite" and then we were all eating it!!!!! Fresh made and so good. We are pizza makers and frequent eaters so when we found out it was right across the street and not a big chain we knew we had the write a 5 star rating for the awesome pizza! Kiddos to Racine Multisports company for going local!! read more

Love their food. Everything is made fresh and piled high. Gets pretty pricey but sometimes you just have to give in. I just wish they had on line ordering because there is a lot of noise over the phone when calling in an order. read more

We ordered a Margarita Pizza that even though was not on the official Menu was made for us anyway! It came out perfect & service was fantastic. Nice friendly staff with a nice big menu! Will definitely be back & Definitely Recommended! read more

My favorite pizza place within about 25 mile radius. And that's saying something. Best in the surrounding area. Always great, every time. I highly recommend. read more

Thanks for your response. This was my first and only experience with your restaurant so your 20 years of stated policies is lost on me. It's just unfortunate that the order was taken incorrectly. Mistakes happen - just disappointing that the mistake wasn't handled well or corrected satisfactorily. read more

This is one of the best kept secrets in the area, truly a place everyone needs to check out. I strongly recommend there cheese steak subs. Also recommend following them on facebook they have some crazy cheap deals. read more

Best pizza ! subs ! pasta ! Personable, warm & friendly my favorite place for authentic Italian food !! read more

It's not much to look at on the outside, but there is great food on the inside. This place is awesome. They use fresh ingredients on their pizzas with lots of toppings. The prices are reasonable, and a great value. If I lived closer, this would be my go to Italian restaurant. If you're in the area, check it out. read more

Drove here tonight from our hotel in Waynesboro. This was some of the best pizza. Really cool atmosphere. Great waitstaff and counter help. HIGHLY RECOMMEND you to try them. read more

All I can say is after moving to this area I'm so glad something like this is so close to me. I called in an order and had a friend go pick it up. The pizza was good. Wings we got were great and I like their fries. It was ready in under 30 mins and the price was really good. Fed three people and had leftovers for a few days and it cost me less than dinner for two at a regular restaurant. read more

A "hole in the wall" with fun and friendly service, good food - not gourmet by any stretch of the imagination - but good, plentiful and reasonably priced. You will not go away hungry! read more

Really nice Italian restaurant just outside Fort Richie, and close to Pen Mark park for AT hikers. Extensive menu and very good pizza. It has table service but when you walk in it looks like you have to order at the counter, which is not true. Service was fast and friendly. I'll be back when in the area. read more

This is one of the best pizza in town in fact the state , although they have other favorites on the menu when your in the mood for pizza this is the place. It's New York style thin layered thick crust! Way better than the normal Domino's/Ceasars etc. I would stick with the 1-3 toppings no more than four with this style pizza, otherwise you'll have to get a thick layered. Experience pizza eaters should know what mean? Will definitely re-order with other favorites on the menu! read more

Clearly based on the response to my previous review, it is clear that the person isn't educated well enough to write a sentence. As for the time frame, you are mistaken, we walked into your establishment at 2:05pm. I took a photo of Ft. Ritchie at is time stamped. If the "waitress" did not put our order in until 2:22pm, then it clearly an error on her part. We did not leave your establishment until 2:55pm. When I have someone tell me my cheesesteaks are in the oven and then still not have them 20 minutes later, we were lied to. Maybe people in Cascade tolerate this because that is all they have up there, but put your establishment anywhere else and I can guarantee that this would not be tolerated. I worked in the hospitality industry for 20 years and, for one, would never respond to a review with an argument, but thank the customer and use it as a learning tool. read more

Exceptional service and quality. Great authentic Italian food. Very diverse menu, something for everyone.

The ABSOLUTE best pizza for miles around. In a pre early 1900s home turned sweet Lil gem/ mountain top. Not pizza alone. Fresh pasta.. We've never had a bad meal PERIOD. read more

Always good food. Even though we moved out of cascade, we still prefer this over any other pizza place and make the trip because it's worth it. read more

Cool little place, friendly service and the pizza is great....will go back when I'm in town...
