This place is amazing! Beyond the food being incredible, the service goes above and beyond. My friend had a medical emergency while dining with them and we had to leave when our dessert was served. Our chef comped two cakes to go for us! Can’t recommend this place enough. It’s truly an experience!

The only thing more amazing than the food was the service. The best nagiri and miso soup these taste buds have had.

If you want the ultimate experience, sit at the bar and have a personal chef prepare the incredible food in front of you. It is our favorite restaurant

We have now eaten at Rosella twice. Both times, it was fabulous. The service was good the first time, but our service this time with Chris was outstanding. The service from the whole restaurant was outstanding. My wife has a shellfish allergy, and everyone was on top of it. The chef saw that we were ordering something with shellfish and made sure this wasn't an error ( It was just for me, no allergies). We absolutely recommend this place.
