    Food & Ambiance were very good. The service was awful. I wanted a glass of wine with my meal and waited for the server to come over. I ate slowly so that I could enjoy my dinner with a wine. By the time the server showed up I was done eating.

    Amazing all around! From the prosciutto to the pizza to the taglietelle pasta - hands down one of the best meals enjoyed in some time. We sat at the bar facing the pizza oven and it was so fun to watch the talented crew at work. Can’t wait to return!

    This meal was fantastic! We have dined at Rose Mary several times so we were pumped to try this new hot spot. It did not disappoint and we can’t wait to go back again! Way to go Chef!

    Everything was amazing. Service was just a tiny bit slow at times but I know it’s only been open for two weeks so they’re adjusting to everything!! Would go back!!
