Food was delicious drinks were good. Service was a little slow so don't be in a hurry when you go here. We waited over 20 minutes for someone to come to our table and waited an hour for our food. Good news is the music and vibe were great so we passed the time singing and dancing. Once we got a server, she was great.

This restaurant and bar offers a tempting combination of happy hour specials and weekend brunch, making it a popular destination for locals and visitors alike. However, on multiple occasions, the experience has been marred by the unfortunate occurrence of running out of food during brunch service, leading to disappointment among patrons. Additionally, the small size of the bar area can quickly become cramped and overcrowded, detracting from the overall enjoyment of the evening. Parking poses another challenge, as the limited availability in this bustling neighborhood can make finding a spot a frustrating endeavor. Despite these setbacks, the restaurant's enticing offerings and lively atmosphere still make it a viable option for those willing to navigate through the occasional inconvenience.

I didn't even stay to eat. We sat for 10 mintues before we was greeted. This place is for the younger crowd that doesn't care about customer service and just want a spot to chill with friends. I also didn't like the fact that brunch is the only menu til 4 pm. This place just isn't my cup of tea and thats

First time at Rosa's for brunch. We went on a Sunday morning, went in and sat down right away. The service staff were pleasant and attentive. The food came out in an unconventional order. Two of us got our food first and our third meal came out about ten minutes after and we still were waiting on a side order, which was a side of bacon. We ordered: Eggs (0/10) - With both the FV FT and the C&P eggs were ordered the eggs were cold as if they were prepped first and sat. Bacon (2/10) - The bacon was thin thin as if they had a larger slab and cut it them half. French Vanilla French Toast (5/10) - very flat pieces of french toast and very little French vanilla flavor. Chicken & Pancakes (5/10) - you eat first with your eyes and these were very light in color. When eating them they lacked flavor, just tasted like batter. The chicken was fried well and very nicely seasoned. Short Stack of Pancakes (4/10) - very light in color. When eating them they lacked flavor, just tasted like batter. Buttermilk Catfish (8/10) - The fish was fried nicely, crispy hot and seasoned. Side of Grits (2/10) - The bowl of grits was sub par and a bit overwhelming with how much you got. Additionally: the syrup comes out in small to go ramekins and it's cold. Putting cold syrup on hot food isn't my preference. Also, it makes it difficult to cut food with plastic cutlery, also not my preference for dining.

I had the pleasure of coming into this restaurant 3x. Unfortunately I will not be returning, my orders was put in wrong. I asked for fish but received chicken which a waitress kept trying to tell me what I ordered I’m 40+ I know how to order. I wouldn’t order what I dont eat, plus my drinks was over charged for the happy hr price. I have ordered the same things so how my bill go from 60 to 78 within a week. The only difference is I came in on a Tuesday when I normally come in on Wednesday or Thursday, I don’t have a relationship with any staff I’m a new patriot. So it’s know reason a person would even give me a discount, only started coming cause my job is close by. I do enjoy the vibe they have but can’t deal with inconsistency and people not really listening to the customer. My food is nothing like the 1st 2x. I’m highly disappointed in the overall service from this restaurant.

I am giving them 4 stars because I’m not going to tank their reviews on here because I do like this place. The food is always fresh, drinks always bomb, usually a DJ. My issue is with management or ownership. For as busy as that place is they always drop the ball and it falls on those amazing bartenders and staff and they have to explain why something isn’t what it’s supposed to be. They are always out of something, it’s not available that day, or they are so busy you’re missing something on your order. The bathrooms are never properly stocked and cleaned throughout the time I’ve been there. I was at brunch 4hrs today and it wasn’t a full house today and nothing was available. NO bacon, NO sweet potatoes for the pancakes, NO red wine for sangria, NO toilet tissue, or out of a particular alcohol that is on their specials. That’s unacceptable when opening for the day. I’ve never been there late, usually within an hour of opening and it’s like nothing is prepared and ready. I always go hoping for better and sadly I don’t come with high expectations because they are never exceeded.

The nightmare started when I ordered a beverage. I ordered an "Angry Orchard or Redd's." I got a Red Stripe which isn't even close to a hard cider. I choked down the lager anyway. Then I ordered the Bistro Burger. The menu clearly says that the Bistro Burger comes with "medium egg, bacon, and cheese on a brioche bun." When I ordered it, I was expecting a burger with patty, cheese, bacon, egg, and a bun. Then it came out with arugula, tomato, and a sauce on it. I told my server that I just didn't want the burger. I already had to wait for it, it came out not as described. I was done with the incompetence and misrepresentation of items. Then the manager(?) came out and asked what the issue was. I told her that the burger came out not as described by the menu. My wife showed her the menu. The response from the manager maintained that "It's a Bistro Burger." We got informed that we already touched the burger so regardless of whether or not we ate it, we'd be charged for it. This place was a letdown. I'd give it less than one star if I could. My wife also ordered a mac & and cheese that never came out so at least we didn't have to wade through that catastrophe. We also didn't get charged for it, so no harm, no foul. The only thing that came out right was the Thai chili wings. They were good.

I visited this black owned restaurant during brunch hours. There was a DJ during my visit, which created a nice vibe because he actually mixed the music like DJ is supposed to do... Some DJs just play songs and that's it smh DJ Manifest was so good. The staff is very friendly and social. The inside is a decent size, not as small as it looks from the front. I ordered the salmon & grits with home fries instead of eggs and a half order of French vanilla french toast. The salmon was seasoned good and I put the sauce on the grits... Sauce had a little spice to it, but was good. The home fries were really good, seasoned well. The french toast was perfectly made and didn't need any syrup. I will return to try dinner and to try other brunch items. Brunch ends at 4pm. Dinner menu does not start until 5pm. Street metered parking is available, but if you don't mind walking a couple of blocks there is free street parking available for 2 hours. 20% gratuity automatically added to your bill.

The catfish was delicious, it could've done without the Cajun powder sprinkled on top. If it isn't infused with the meal it really does nothing for it. However the server was attentive and lovely. The DJ was cool but it's a bit loud and you definitely have to be in the mood for a club like atmosphere.

Extremely unclean. The owner Mark speaks to worker as if he owns them. Also served expired food to customers for profit. Wait times are long & staff is unorganized. Wouldn’t recommend working or eating here.
