We had the most lovely time at Rococo Mordialloc celebrating a friend’s 25th birthday. The food was all absolutely incredible, especially the famous gnocchi and the prosciutto pizza. Our server, Jarli, went above and beyond for our table and was so friendly. I can’t wait to come back here! It’s the perfect nice dinner pit spot. And the sunset views are insane! Rococo was a much needed addition to Mordialloc’s dining scene.
