This is a great place to entertain clients or have a special dinner. Prices are high for Ontario, but you get what you pay for - and more. The food, wait staff, and ambiance are great. I have eaten at Rosa's many times over the past five years and have never had anything but a great meal.

We were staying a hotel nearby and wanted to have a nice dinner out. The food here was excellent and the dining was very nice but the service was just ok.

I went here for a business lunch, prices were pretty high, but the food was pretty good. The menu is a little different though, this definitely wouldn't be a place to take your kids. There are a lot of seafood options, but if you don't like seafood, your options will be somewhat limited. I ended up getting the chicken special... More

Visited during a business dinner, atmosphere was quiet, seating was comfortable and the food was great. We had a couple of drinks prior to dinner, our business associates had some wine. The bread bites were absolutely delicious. The dinner meals are a little pricey for the servings/portions, but was very good. I would recommend for a nice romantic dinner spot... More

Checking in to a nearby hotel they recommended the short walk to Rosa's. The exterior doesn't prepare you for the interior - an 'over the top' Italian garden setting, indoors. The glass, marble, and wood results in hightened noise levels. If your near a large party, expect your table conversation to be impacted. Service is by the team concept, so... More

My husband and I love this restaurant. We go for special occasions such as birthdays and anniversaries, because it's a little pricey for monthly dining. It is so worth the cost. They serve a basket of delicious bread with butter to start off with. We usually share a salad. We've had the Piccata Al Porcini & Formaggio (you can cut... More

We had dinner for 9 on Friday night and surprised one of our party with a little birthday celebration. Food and wine were terrific!

I always like to avoid chain restaurants when I travel. I went here on business and really enjoyed the food, as did everyone. The Osso Bocco looked amazing - falling off the bone. I had seafood which was fresh and well prepared. The ambiance was a bit cheesy (tile floors, columns, etc). The food and service were excellent. They handled... More

This is the place to go in this area. Very nice atmosphere and excellent service. The special, however, was a little overcooked. The menu prices also see a bit high given the competition in the area. Perhaps that's due to proximity to the Ontario convention center and expense account travelers. There aren't a lot of other options in the area... More

During our work conferences, we like to wine and dine our regional leadership. We tried our Rosa's about 6 months ago at our last conference and it was such a favorite, they begged us to go back! I was very pleased that they were able to take our last minute reservation for 10 on a Friday night. It was the... More
