The service was good. We had the kind Guatemalan waiter who was very friendly and knowledgeable of everything on the menu. I can’t remember his name but he was great. The atmosphere was cozy and quaint. A old school linen napkin kind of place.On the flip side, the food was not good at all. Two people at our table of six ate all of their food. The others barely touched their plates. Let’s just say the two guys who ate everything, will admittedly, eat anything! What a shame as our group had high hopes for this place. Even the desserts disappointed. The tiramisu was good but the olive oil cake and cheesecake was kind of gritty. Not moist at all. Overall, the food just didn’t impress. There’s way better places for way less money. I hate giving bad reviews but I have to be honest. Save your money and go elsewhere.Parking: They have parking in the back lot but if it’s full, there is also parking on the street in front of the restaurant.

Was here for a baby shower- the place is really quaint and lovely. It is on the small side with 2 seperate dining areas. The food was excellent and wait staff was very attentive and friendly. We had a great time.

First: it’s a BYOB! But they are very flexible and accommodating about glasses, regardless of what type is needed. Staff works hard and is very responsive and patient. As for the food- great to excellent. I had the Cod/brocollini special in a red sauce (it could have alhad a bit more spice) , cavatelli and ricotta cheese, pasta with crab meat and shrimp, chicken parm (not on menu but Legit)- great selection and flavors.
Recommended dishes: Calamari Fritti, House Salad, Bread Basket, Cod Fish

This Italian gem is a must-try! The food was absolutely incredible – bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection. It's clear they use fresh, high-quality ingredients and pour their hearts into every dish. But beyond the delicious food, the true star of the evening was Jenny, the hostess. Her warmth and hospitality made us feel like family. She went above and beyond to ensure we had a wonderful experience, and thanks to her attentiveness and genuine kindness, our evening with friends was simply unforgettable.
First time there and the house was adorable, quaint,like a Nonno's house! I had the Veal giant meatballs and they were fantastic! My husband had the sausage,chicken dish and he loved?it! Going back and bringing friends!

Rosa runs an excellent establishment. Food quality is always good. Meal pricing is very reasonable for what you get for your money. From the moment you walk in, to the time you leave, service is top notch. Desserts are amazing. Menu changes occasionally, so we keep coming back. Specials are always good. Can't beat the BYOB. It's a great "local gem" in a small borough.

Old style atmosphere. GREAT service. This place absolutely does it right. The food here is delicious. Try this place one time, I assure you, before you leave, you will find another reason to come back.

The service was excellent. Very aware and anticipated our needs. Food was delicious and the chef accommodated our requests. Wonderful
A fantastic Italian restaurant with unusual Italian dishes on the menu. Portions are large so can be shared ir opt for the smaller portions. It's also BYOB. Never a disappointment.

Fantastic experience, wonderful food and our waitress was so knowledgeable about gluten free options. In our dining area it did get a bit loud with so many people but it wasn't a mood killer

Overall it was up to our high expectations, considering we've eaten here a number of times. Our waiter Reggie was attentive and his usual friendly self. My only disappointment was I had dreamt all week of enjoying their Osso Bocco, only to learn they had run out and it would be unavailable.

Party of 6. Wonderful! Never dissapointed. Our wait-person Brianna (sp?) was personable & on spot. We'll be back. ???
