We had an outstanding lunch. It was our first time in Rosa Madre but we will be back. We were hosting friends over from Canada and it was wonderful to showcase authentic Italian food in Dublin. The staff were friendly and professional and the restaurant has a lovely ambience. We were in Venice in early December but the food in Rosa Madre was far superior to what we experienced there.
