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

An enjoyable return visit to a neighborhood favorite. Food was very good, including the arancini, which we tried for the first time, plus repeats of delicious favorites-- lasagna and chicken marsala. ! We look forward to our next visit!!

It was a nice little Italian place. I got the lasagna which was really good. It came with a white sauce which was different from the red sauce I’m used too but very good. One of my guest eats gluten free and they had gluten free pasta. She ended up getting risotto which she really liked. Our waitress was new and didn’t know the menu well but was very friendly. Any question she couldn’t answer she went to others to get the answer. I would definitely eat here again.
