Service was absolutely excellent. Food was okay, however i really like the ordering system which ensures that you get exactly what you order without any miscommunication.
Okay so after driving around for an hour looking through the Kickass Burger collection on my Zomato app we decided to settle for something closer to home.
Now anyone that knows me , knows that i can be a really weird foodie, there are days where i can get messy without a problem and then there are days where my peanut butter sandwhich has a little peanut butter on the side and it touches my hand and i freak out and go into an uncontrollable rage, that's me and i have no idea why.
today i didnt know what i was feeling but because of driving around i did feel abit aggravated. so i walked into this place expecting the worse.
But no, it ended up being an awesome everything, the service was great, our waiter was fast and friendly, and when the food arrived it was gone before i could even capture the moment, the bun was fresh the ingredients were delicious and all in all it was an awesome burger.
We often get take aways from Rocomamas at the Glen on a Friday evening and we've never had a bad experience! The burgers have always been on point, as well as the chips, which are a decent portion to share (we normally get a medium chips which is quite huge). The service is always great and the guys are always friendly when we're collecting! The breakfasts are also great, a great hangover pick me up! :) We really like this Rocomamas!!! And if I'm feeling for a burger, it's our go to burger joint at the moment!!!

REVIEW UPDATE: 2/5 to 4/5
I am not a fan of the Rocomamas franchise and I genuinely think I am the only person in the South of Johannesburg that feels this way because whenever we pass this Rocomamas it is always full and bustling. The service is usually very good and friendly and it has such a welcoming vibe most people can't help but be attracted to it. Rocomamas is Jurgen's favourite 'go-to' dinner place so we often end up at Rocomamas with him eating his faithful Bacon, Cheez and Guac burger and me attempting to find something different on the menu.
Last time I settled on the Sweet Fire Ribs and that was a dismal mistake. I like spicy food, a lot, but the Sweet Fire Ribs boarder inedible and I probably only finished two before quitting because not only was my mouth burning but I developed blistering on my lips and around my mouth. Luckily Rocomamas does offer really good milkshakes so that eased the burn slightly. From now on I will probably stick to the Old Skool BBQ ribs or chicken wings which are good but get a little boring after a while.
This might have been a fluke (as everyone else loved their meals) but it has really left me with an even worse opinion of Rocomamas and hopefully I will not have to return any time soon.
UPDATE:
I am happy to have the opportunity to review this Rocomamas and give it a bettty score! Since the Sweet Fire Ribs incident we have returned a few times and it seems the good is just improving with each visit.
We recently tried the feta bombs which are completely addictive. The manage then offered us a chilli bomb each to taste and what can I say, I'm hooked.
The service as always is friendly; efficient and accommodating. We will definitely be returning.
Delicious menu items. At decent affordable prices. Rocomamas could do with better plating options. Skinny fries are awesome. Sweetfire ribs do pack a punch!
The service here is impeccable. From the moment you approach the entrance you are attended to. They really know how to take care of patrons here. The bartender got my drink order wrong and rectified quickly too. Great restaurant.
Took my kids for lunch after watching a movie, we had the triple treat promo and our waitron was a gentleman by the name Njabulo, he offered us the most excellent service that I haven't received at a restaurant for a long time. Very patient and made us feel like the only customers in the store. Njabulo is really an asset to the establishment.
What a come back. I have to eat my words.
Fantastic service and people.
I recorded a review that was less than complimentary.
Thabiso called me and asked me to visit again. I did. I tried the same burger that I complained about and WOW.
So guys, you are officially so much better than what I thought.
Your friendliness and service is top notch.
Well done and thank you for restoring my delight in your food.
The best burger 🍔 😋
Atmosphere pleasant and was very warm with a heater 👌
One of my favourite Rocomamas! It's always an amazing experience and their menu is top-tier! So many options to choose from, and if you can't make up your mind, you can build your own meal. I love it! We had the pleasure of being served by Ace on our last visit and his service was absolutely amazing! He made a delicious "surprise me" freak shake! Definitely a Favourite spot!
We did not have to wait to be seated, at around 19:00 on Sunday evening. The waitress was courteous and attentive. The two triple smash cheeseburgers with skinny fries, one old school burger, two soft drinks and a peanut butter milkshake were good value for money. I Restrauant could get noisy if there were more patrons.
This place is always busy because of how good the food is. If you are looking to take away, just make a call and place your oder about 20-30 min before depending the order.
The staff are always willing to help and very friendly.
Great service 👏 and awesome food
But only eat there if you are hungry the portions are bigger than you think
It's cute and funky but I have a huge problem with their menu, I don't know if it was limited because we are still on SA level1 lock down. The menu is full n boring, drinks were just fine
Wow!!! It was my second time at Rocomamas and I was so impressed even more than before. The food, the service and everything was great.
Thanks to Vusi our waiter for today, his service was amazing 👌☺️
