    Sat at the bar for brunch. All the bartenders were very attentive and super nice. Especially Steven. Shout out Steven 💯. Food came out quick after ordering and was delicious. We ordered the eggs benny and the polenta. Both delicious. The only thing I will say is that I wish the eggs Benny had more sauce. But maybe a saucy Benedict is just my preference. I will be coming back for brunch 100%

    I booked a large table at Rollati last night. Thanks to OpenTable, I was able to book a reservation for a party of 11. All of the staff was warm and inviting, and the ambiance of the restaurant was excellent. I was there at 6 PM on a Saturday and although it was packed the noise level was excellent. The waiter's level of service was excellent and he came by the table many times. This was my first time at this restaurant and the quality of the experience was 10/10. I highly recommend this restaurant for small or large parties and any types of events, informal or formal. I'll most definitely be back :)
