Rocco Mangel is set to open what he calls a “Mexican Disney World” on Las Olas Boulevard. This will be the third location for Mangel, who also has locations in Boca Raton and West Palm Beach. This colossal hacienda is 6,600 square feet and holds up to 200 diners at a time. Boasting over 225 types of tequila and freshly prepared guacamole at your table with fresh corn tortillas made on premises, this is a truly authentic Mexican restaurant repurposed to fit in with the distinguished tastes of Las Olas Boulevard. The design of Rocco’s is thoughtfully playful and they have made use of nearly every Mexican cliché. With equipalechairs outside and a lively firepit, dining al fresco has never been more appealing. The interior is lit with custom chandeliers of tin star lanterns, creating a beautiful ambience. Portions are oversized and the menu is truly diverse.
