Again, another wonderful experience at Rosalie. The food was excellent. The breakfast pizza, french toast, and potatoes were the perfect brunch combo. Fantastic service and the cherry on top was the birthday ice cream cup for my wife. At least two employees said happy birthday to her, which was also a small but thoughtful gesture. We will most certainly be back at Rosalie!

Thoroughly enjoyed everything. We had the beet salad with grilled chicken, eggplant stack, spaghetti and meatballs, veal parm with a side of fettuccine Alfredo, and the poached pear salad with grilled salmon. The red wine the waiter suggested was really good too. The burolo. The people that work there could not be nicer! Definitely recommend

Love this place. The food is always a 10. The cocktails are great, the service is great and the wine list (if you like Italian wines) is expensive. Would highly recommend.
