Absolutely lovely dinner at Rosemary & Thyme NYE. We sat outside at a great table near the talented and wonderful violinist. Food was delicious. We had the Osso Buco and the duck. The vibe was festive and magical. Really enjoyed the experience.

We love this restaurant! The food is always delicious and the service is great. If you can snag a table on their patio in nice weather, do it! They had live guitar music - so nice! My husband had the grouper and loved it - very nice portion size - and I had the duck - again a very generous portion - half a duck - took some home. We also tried the carrot cake for dessert - one of the best! Servers are always friendly and attentive - a classic place!

Had a fabulous dinner on New Years Eve. Husband had a seafood pasta dish which he said was THE best pasta dish he's ever eaten. I had the grouper. It was perfect. Drinks were amazing. Bartender, wait staff, host, all wonderful and attentive. Can't wait to go back.

Another wonderful meal at Rosemary & Thyme! We sat on the tented patio for New Year’s Eve dinner with live music. Service was attentive but not rushed. Our group of seven had the salmon, grouper and duck - everyone loved their dinners, and starters too. We’ll all be back!

New Years Eve - we were late (6 days ahead) making a reservation and were to be seated outside on the patio. We’ve been there in 2023 and 2024 and it was delightful. We requested an indoor table, and were able to be inside. We eat with R&T at least monthly and absolutely love LOVE everything about it. NYE is very busy so the menu is slightly more limited but all our delicious favorites were available. Difficult to choose but the Duck l’Orange, Rack of Lamb and Beef Filet won!

Our first time at the Rosemary and Thyme was for an early dinner theater preshow on New Year’s Eve. The patio was magical as the lights came on and the soft beautiful live music played. Our waiter Alvin was a delight and so attentive, pleasant and helpful. The meals were outstanding and every moment of our time there on the patio exceeded our expectations. We will now consider ourselves “regulars”. We are so glad we chose this restaurant to usher in new beginnings and celebrate a year well lived.
