Our Review:
Aside from the alcohol, Roccapulco is a great place to go dancing, with a spacious dance floor (just watch out for the pole in the middle) plus a lounge area upstairs.
Roccapulco also hosts an annual salsa team competition, and there are regular performances from the area's top dancers. It can be a little slow on some nights, but on a good night Roccapulco is a great place to dance with some of San Francisco top salseros.

I may be wrong but something has gone desperately wrong with Roccapulco. This USED TO BE one of the great Salsa dance palaces in the city. With Cafe Cocomo on the verge of permanent closure you would think Roccapulco would pick up the their crowd but that’s not the case! I heard the struggling “Rock” has new owners and it appears they’re catering more to Cumbia than Salsa these days. I can’t put my finger on it but something has changed with Roccapulco. Go figure.

I’ve been here on both a Friday and Saturday. He place has all the potential to be great, but unfortunately it seems mismanaged. The staff seemed very unfriendly – kind of like jailors in television. The floor is wood, and it is huge, but it was wet with uncleaned spills. The good dancers were clickish, and there were a lot of beginners.

This place is the worst when I comes to salsa special events, they let the salsa performance start very late, it’s not worth paying $$ to see anybody for a short time.

Walked in at 8:30 pm for the 8 PM Salsa lessons- and we were the only ones there – greeted by a bouncer who told us the club was closed – opening at 10 pm and no classes on Saturday…
Went to 550 Barnaveld
