Picked a busy night—Valentines Day. Restaurant is small and it was full all night. Noisy but you could still hear your table talk. Food was excellent and prices fair. Good service from the whole family!!

Absolute awful experience. Our food order came out wrong—sent it back and came out wrong again. Third time was wring too and we gave up. They still tried to charge us for it.

Rocio our server was excellent, keeping our food and drinks timely and our table cared for. We enjoyed a nice bottle of Prosecco with our meal of lasagne and carbonara. The coffee and espresso, that we had with the tiramisu, were very good.

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
