We had a wonderful birthday dinner at Bar Rosella and enjoyed it very much. The food was excellent and very flavoursome, the wait staff were busy but attentive and the ambiance was lovely. The wine list was a bit pricy however. It would be a good to offer a few options below $20 per glass. Overall we left very happy with our dining experience.

Rocco and the team at Bar Rosella delivered a flawless experience, as always. One of Melbourne’s best regional Italian restaurants, leveraging Rocco’s direct knowledge of Puglia and Pugliese cuisine. Buonissimo.
