What diners say — our read

Little tension on this listing: diners rate it well and the kitchen graded well. Where how guests are treated comes up, the rating that follows averages 4.9, so it reads as a strength.

5 stars is the modal score, given by 24 of the 25 reviewers who rated. 25 of 25 rated reviews are four stars or higher; 0 are two or lower. Conspicuously absent: cleanliness, which no reviewer brings up.

On the inspection side the picture is cleaner: DBPR graded this kitchen an A (99/100), with 1 basic violations. Whatever the reviews argue about, sanitation is not the weak point. That inspection was on February 26, 2026. Its inspection trajectory is upward over the records we hold. On health score it sits safer than 87% of the Orange County restaurants we grade. Among the items recorded were floors, walls, ceilings clean & maintained.

With both signals pointing the same way, there is little to argue about on this listing. The individual reviews are below, newest first, if you want the raw material.

    So i came here because i live in the area i was hoping for the best because i have alot of people that come here and said go here go here.The food was decent im tough because my family has lived in Texas and all over.I had a margarita which they known for but it being so hot i realized the drink had more ice in it then it being being smooth. which i thought they where known for their margaritas it felt like something out of starbucks.40 dollars for a pitcher is also pricey in the area over all though being said and done food was great .just one other thing make sure your servers have great energy its a great fun colorful atmosphere i expect them to be a little friendlier and its Dr Phillips best of the best.i worked on retail i get it but hey hows your day what can we help you with goes a long why tried to really make convo with the server im southern. also you are known for fresh quac servers should inform your customers on how its made i had no idea yall made it right there and its a specialty to have it made fresh i had to explain it to my friend why given my family's lived in texas . To me tho not worth the hype ive had better less of the price.

    My husband and I love coming here! Patrick was an excellent waiter and recommended fantastic dishes we hadn’t tried before!

  • June 29, 2026

    We were served by Annabelle and I must say nothing beats feeling welcomed at an establishment that you decide to spend your time and money with. Big warm smiles and consistent check in made all the difference. Seems to be a lost art these days so it’s quite refreshing seeing this type of customer friendly service when it does happen!

    Annabelle provided excellent service. Table-side Guacamole was delicious & skinny margaritas were great too!

  • June 29, 2026

    Excelente experiencia. La comida estuvo deliciosa, el ambiente fue muy agradable y el servicio fue excepcional. Quiero destacar especialmente la atención de Alberto, quien fue muy amable, atento y profesional durante toda nuestra visita. Se aseguró de que no nos faltara nada y nos hizo sentir muy bien atendidos. Sin duda, ¡Muy recomendado!

    We had an amazing dinner at Rocco's Tacos, and the skirt steak fajitas were absolutely incredible. Our servers, Katelynn and John, took fantastic care of us and made the night even better. We will definitely be back soon for another great meal!
