Open on weekends. Out of towners. Excellent, simple breakfast. Very friendly husband and wife team. Good food, good price. Loved it!

This little diner is a staple in Bloomfield's Little Italy. No frills design and decor as you'd expect a good diner to be. Though it does remind me a bit of a residential kitchen/dining area of the early 80s. It's clean and comfortable. The food is good and solid diner fare at reasonable prices: Eggs, toast, home fries and choice of meat for $4.99. Add a beverage and special is then $7.49. Great way to fill up for the day. Cheap and good doesn't get any better. read more

See all

hmmm rocky? are you only open now on weekends? id like to try out your breakfast...heard it was a lil greasy spoon which is fin me

Cash only You'd never find this place if you weren't looking for it - a tiny little diner near the hospital. Their hours are somewhat erratic, I believe they're closed Fridays and only open until 1 on Saturday. Upon entering you're greeted with a prominent view of the kitchen(One guy cooking on what appears to be a standard stove), a breakfast bar that seats about 15, and about 10 tables that could seat 2-4. We sat ourselves at one of the few open tables, the people inside were a few senior couples, one lone older man at the counter, and a young couple. Just about everyone seemed to be a regular and know each other by name. Their menu lists breakfast and lunch, with most of their 'a la carte' breakfast items being a few bucks each, and their breakfast plates being about $5. I got an egg sandwich with homefries and coffee for $5, my girlfriend got 2 eggs with toast, homefries, and juice for $6. My girlfriend asked if instead of meat she could get cheese and the eggs scrambled. When the waitress took the order back the guy behind the counter started at the slip in a "what the hell?" kind of way but didn't complain. Our food arrived in less than 5 minutes, a large plate which had a sizable amount of food on it considering the price, and very few frills. Our coffee was kept full and our order was correct, no items having been forgotten. None of the food was notably good, but it was all tasty and had a "homecooked"("rustic"?) feel to it. Also, bonus points that the eggs and homefries we were served were not dripping in industrial butter-like oil. A point worth noting is that while our waitress was very nice to us, it appears they are happy to tell it to you like it is, telling and older man who seemed to be a regular after quite a bit of chit-chat that if he couldn't finish his meal by 1pm then he ought to not bother ordering. For $11 and a tip we got a 2 decently sized breakfasts, juice, coffee, and extremely quick service. $6 is about as expensive as anything in there is, so I'm sure we'll be in here on many weekend mornings in the future. read more

Rocky's - a storefront with teddy bears outside - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Rocky is the man. My dad and I used to eat here once a month while getting a haircut at Cercone's barbershop up the street. It was our tradition from about 1999-2004. I came back last year and rocky was still behind the counter serving up food the same way as always. It's home cooking with no frills. It's just downright good and hearty food. read more

Good cheap eats. Fast, friendly service too. My favorite place to get breakfast on the weekend! Just a heads up: it's cash only but they have an ATM on site. read more

Rocky's is the kind of place my family loves, and I look at them like they are crazy. Extremely greasy, divey joints are not my thing. At all. But they dragged me here one Saturday morning, and Rocky's is what it is. No frills divey breakfast. Exceptionally greasy food makes me ill, and Rocky's succeeded at doing that. I don't eat potatoes, and every breakfast meal option came with potatoes. There is no variety, the menu has 10 things tops. To top that off, they were out of a lot of things. But you know what? Where else can you go for breakfast and eat for around $5 per person including a drink? No bathrooms. They must be grandfathered in, or they are just running a super illegal business. Either way, when you are feeling violently ill after eating a meal here or just need to pee from drinking coffee, you'll be miserable, if you are like me. Why three stars? Because my dad is watching me type this and told me that I couldn't give them two. So for my dad and the cheap prices, three stars. Bring your family members ages 50+ here. They'll appreciate it. read more

I heard that "The Earth without Art is just Eh." Well there is no art in this cooking but it is cheap and a "real" neighborhood experience. I eat here every once in a while and though I wouldn't recommend it to people, I would bring them there with me. These people have been here forever and when they run out of something they simply tell you "nope". When they run out of lot of things... they close. I hope they are here forever and ever. read more

Your typical greasy spoon. The hours are a bit odd; another yelper called them erratic, which is a perfect description. I have seen this place for years and I think I've seen it open all of twice, today being one of those times. It's also very small and manned by Rocky himself, who does all the cooking, so even though its small there can be a wait if the tables are full. They are only open for breakfast, so the menu is limited. Just eggs, omelets and pancakes mostly. The most expensive thing on the menu was $6.99 and you get a very large portion, so it's definitely affordable. Like I said, your typical frill-less greasy spoon. *the Yelp header describes it as Italian, Mexican and Sandwiches (????) which is grossly inaccurate, so please don't try to go there for pasta or tacos read more

Cheap, fast, and simple. Coffee was a little weak but my bagel, egg, ham, and cheese sandwich was greasy and delicious (just the way I like it) read more

This is a great little breakfast nook in Bloomfield! The prices for their classic American meals were reasonable, and the food was good! This restaurant area is small, and the menu is typical American breakfast food. Not many staff members, and a cash only restaurant. read more

Breakfast is good but the service is a little lacking in the friendly area. Server and cook were both iffy with their attitudes.. it almost seemed as if neither wanted to be there. read more

Rocky's is a cool little place on Liberty Avenue in Bloomfield. Not many tables, though. Food is good, prices are cheap. Most of the breakfast specials include the cost of your drink in the price. So my breakfast, a tasty bagel sandwich with egg, bacon and cheese was $5.34. And that included both home fries and my coffee. The cook was our waiter but my cup was never empty. I'll return for more. read more

Small hole in the wall plae with big portions and tiny prices... And it tastes good. What more could you want from breakfast?

I had hoped this would be a diamond in the rough but I was thoroughly wrong. This was one of the worst restaurant experiences. The service was bad: the only server spent our entire time there sitting at a table talking on her cell phone with only short breaks to get us food. The food was inedible: the coffee was watered down, the water tasted of dishsoap, and the food tasted like it had been going bad. We didn't eat more then a bite of the food, just payed and left. read more

This place was awful. I ordered the breakfast special: the pancakes tasted like the batter had gone off and the water tasted like dishsoap. I was really hoping for a hidden treasure hole in the wall place, but boy was i wrong. Go somewhere else for your breakfast. read more

I love this place. The hours are onlu saturdays and sundays, what's the perfect brunch time. It's like walking into a diner from the 50s. Super nice staff, food is tasty and really not expensive. Anytime again. read more

A classic Yinzer dive breakfast joint. Good food at a great price. Rocky or "Rock" takes your order, fills your coffee, and cooks your generous portions behind the bar-all himself. The place is frequented my mostly older regulars with grins all around. Expect rickety breakfast-special signs on the walls, classic rock, and patrons in old stealers jerseys. The 2 eggs, ham, home fries and toast for $4.50 is hard to beat. This place is classic, old school Pittsburgh. Keep at it Rock! read more

Rocky's breakfast food is exactly what you would cook yourself. For $5 this Saturday have someone else make you eggs, bacon, toast, home fries and coffee. Feel like you're in your grandma's living room. Really, try it. read more

Greasy mess, we had two specials. Eggs and Sausage the sausage was burnt. I asked for eggs and bacon well done, it wasn't. She took it back then it was flabby and burnt. I didn't think that was possible! Waitress wasn't friendly at all. First and last time! Save your money, go anywhere else! read more

Very disappointed. Order a diet pop. The glass had tons of ice. Then the pop has a very flat taste. I wondered if it came from a bottle that had been sitting for awhile. Again I am wondering, but the pop was strange. My lunch was average, if even that. I generally leave a large tip at places. Here I only left 20%. This place is filled with ugly gossip. The owner joins in the conversations. There is an awesome man who sits at one of the window seats. I think his name is Bill. Very sweet guy. I think he is borderline mentally challenged. He always has many kind things to say. This place is a couple foot steps from the transits to downtown, breakfast are okay, but not worth a trip of going out of your way. read more
