Rocco's Tacos Opening This Summer on Adams Street in Downtown Brooklyn

Rocco’s Tacos & Tequila Bar is bringing some Mexican flavor to downtown Brooklyn this summer. The Florida-based chain of Mexican joints already has signage up at 339 Adams Street, where it inked a 15-year lease for 14,500 square feet last year. Community Board 2 also voted to support a full liquor license two weeks ago, and the restaurant said it plans to stay open until 1 am.

The chain’s first New York outpost will serve over 225 varieties of tequila and guacamole prepared tableside. The huge space, formerly Morton’s, has a 4,800 square-foot lower floor for private parties and can seat up to 140 people. Managers said they hope to open within the next two to three months. GMAP
