   Rosina's is one of my favorite restaurants. The food is consistently excellent and predictable. Our server, Adrianna, could not have been more competent and pleasant. My wife and I shared a baked cod dish with creamy lobster sauce. It was terrific. Rosina, back from Puglia, usually coems to each table to explain the specials. She and her restaurant are a treat!

   Excellent food always, their soups are amazing. Tonight was creamy, Italian sausage wonderful venue, Rosina visits when she sees us and we love her greetings and company, she makes you feel like your in her home. Jean Carlo, the chef comes out to visit guests and he's always gracious and appreciative of our visits. thank you for always a good time there.

   Have always loved Rosina's and it has only gotten better over the years. We really like the furnishing in the new room across the patio. With the original room, the patio and the new room Rosina's has really gone to a new level. In the old days we enjoyed Rosina walking around and talking to people but last night the place was so busy that she only had time to say hi. But that's okay...shows how popular it is. We also like the small personal touches. The hostess told my wife how she really liked her new hairstyle. Not only was that nice and thoughtful, it showed and warm and personal touch. And finally the food never disappoints. Don't worry about trying to choose the best thing on the menu. It is all great!!!

   Waiter was extremely drunk (at the very least). Wasn’t the only staff member who was inebriated. Took half an hour to introduce himself, longer to order. Forgot multiple things we ordered, forgot we paid, slurred his words throughout, brought other peoples orders. I was wondering if we were being punk’d.

   Went there on a busy holiday evening -- placed was very packed. The biggest negative was that service was slow, but our waiter was so nice that it wasn't a big deal. And Rosina herself walks around, telling you about the dishes and specials -- very sweet. The food was so good! Had the meatball appetizers over polenta, and that was excellent. The salmon was great, but the Rosetta was just amazing (pasta with ham in cheese -- sort of a ham/pasta fondue). We had the Primo super Tuscan wine, which was also great. We had carolers there too. Spent 2.5 hours, but very pleasant atmosphere. BTW, they have heat lamps for outdoor dining.

   Enjoyed almost every dish here over 5. Feels like the family run restaurant that it is. You have a choice of eating outside or two different indoor dining rooms. I feel like an instant regular and looking forward to more visits in the future.

   I don’t like to admit, but have to, that consistency in quality has fallen. Apparently it’s now a hit or miss. I had the lasagna, which was great. My wife had the ravioli, but the ravioli was hard and came in one big piece and was not tasty. I’m writing this because this is one of our favorite places to go to, and I would really wish that they go back to what they were, as this is the second time that we had a doubtful experience.
