On 5/11/2026 Robert Hutchinson had this to say:
We got there at 7:30 and the place was hopping, but they got us in quick. It is a very nice restaurant with delicious main dishes and great service; the dinner salad was especially good. One person in our party is a vegetarian, and the restaurant was very accommodating. Everyone was friendly, and we especially liked our waiter, Vic!

On 5/10/2026 samantha weyhrauch had this to say:
We’ve always been regulars here, but with the new sale I’m really excited to see they won’t be going anywhere and some needed improvements have started to happen the new owner Nick took his time to really greet and welcome all the customers during a very busy Friday night dinner . The good as always was hot and delicious and everyone left so happy, we’re from up north and there’s only a handful of places where we really feel like home and Rossi’s always has, we’re thrilled they’ve found someone who uphold the name ! Nick congratulations and many blessing’s well be in again soon
