About the restaurant

Comfortable casual and drenched in Southern charm, the Rose Villa combines its polished easygoing atmosphere with Southern cuisine, classic craft cocktails and an ample selection of Wines. Enjoy Chef Sylvia Kerry Herrera's signature Southern Fried Chicken or her award winning Shrimp and Grits. Each guest that walks through our doors is sure to have a story to tell. Built in in late 1800's Rose Villa was established as a boutique hotel and bed and breakfast in 1901.
The Gazebo is open for cocktails, lunch and dinner during the temperate months. With a relaxing fountain and abundant florals, the Gazebo and back porch seating is a great place to enjoy the Rose Villa. Dogs Welcome!
Upstairs is the Southern Speakeasy, "Whiskey at the Rose" and is making quite a stir among Bourbon aficionados with an array of high end Bourbons. Chef Sylvia has also gotten in on the action offering small plate appetizers and food tastings designed around whiskey and Bourbon during special events.

We had the most awesome experience dining here! Beautiful attention to detail, food exceptional (we especially loved option of half portions of the homemade pasta so we could try things), atmosphere quiet and romantic, service impeccable. The history of the building was interesting, too ..so glad we got this experience. If you are in the area, definitely try!

Overall, we had a good experience. The bar is great! The ambiance is great! Service was good but they seemed a bit short-staffed so I think normally service would be great. I ordered a salad which was nothing extraordinary (it was a salad after all) but it was fresh and sized appropriately for an entree salad. My husband ordered the fish sandwich and enjoyed it immensely. He said the fries were some of the best he’s had. We’ll definitely return.

The fish bite appetizer was perfectly crisp and flavorful, the burger entrée was juicy and cooked to perfection, and the special sausage entree was a standout with its bold, delicious seasoning. The ambience was energetic and inviting, creating the perfect backdrop for a great date night experiemce. A huge shoutout to our server, Eric, who was attentive, friendly, and made the evening even better. We can’t wait to go back soon!
