Our meals were delicious and service was exceptional, as always. The music was kind of loud and when the tables started to fill, the acoustics got worse. Nevertheless, we always enjoy our meals at Rosemarino! Staff is super-friendly and attentive. Parking is a breeze

Our first time here and such a great discovery. All three generations said they’d definitely return with friends. Fun, delicious cocktails. Loved the multiple size options for ordering wine. Every dish was a winner. And the service was impeccable. Best of all though was the fact we could comfortably hold a conversation while still enjoying the music and great atmosphere.
