    Small cheese pizza (4 slices)

    One star because ordered take-out on what appeared to be a slow late afternoon with few patrons. Ordered a small plain cheese pizza and medium white pizza. The 2nd star was earned because the pizza was decent. However, certainly not worth the wait. There was an abundance of staff. Saw two dedicated bartenders, 3 people taking to-go orders / hosting, a couple of servers and two managers. So the wait wasn't for lack of staffing. Noticed 4-5 high school aged kids making the pizzas. Maybe management should help out if the turnaround time is longer than 45 min.

    What a great restuarnt! Was in close proximity to all three locations and ended up choosing the one closer to Venice mainly because we figured we would visit a Venice Beach after dinner. When we arrived, we were welcomed and were able to get a seat right away. In giving reviews, I am always honest and must confess we waited a bit until a server arrived at our table. It was nothing aggregious, just longer than normal. If we weren't so hungry and knew of other decent places with no wait, we may have walked out, so we decided to stick around and I'm glad we did. Mariah asked if we were being waited on, picked up our order, and things quickly changed. Her southern hospitality and charm made up for the extended time waiting. While pure speculation, I'm pretty sure she was assigned a different area as she was all over the place. Despite this, she managed to check in on us, made sure we were hydrated, and provided us with outstanding customer service. A huge thank you to Mariah for your service. I started off with a Hazify (New England Style IPA from Palm City Brewing) One of the great things about traveling to different areas is trying beers from different parts of the Country that may not be readily available back home in New Jersey. I snacked on some Coal Fired Wings (Fried crispy, tossed in your favorite sauce and finished next to their 1200° coals) tossed in a mango habenero sauce. There were many varieties to choose from and was happy with my choice and would have been just as happy with some of the other flavors as well. For the main course, we ordered the Pizza Margherita (Neopolitan tomato sauce with flor di latte (fresh mozzarella) and basil), Ravioli (Cheese ravioli topped with our homemade tomato sauce) and Vodka Penne (Tossed in tomato cream sauce.) Both pasta dishes came with two huge garlic knots that my son said was one of the best garlic knots he ever had and I can attest he has has many. The food came out quickly and was delicious. Coming from New Jersey with so many great pizza places, I was reluctant to try the pizza but was impressed with the quality being I was 1200 miles from home. My kids devoured their food enjoyed their meal. For dinning out, I though the price point was perfect and was surprised it was not more expensive. In finding places to eat, an important thing for me is to find a well balanced menu that could satisfy me and my daughter who is a vegetarian. This menu has many options to choose from we all walked out stuffed and satisfied. A huge thanks to all those behind the scenes (bartender, cooks, management) for a delicious meal.

    Nice place, good environment and friendly staff. Wings are crispy and delicious. Steak roll is ok. Garlic knots we didn't like, the bread was very dry. Pizza is really good. Overall a nice place to eat some pizza.

    This is what you get for $25. They open the box at takeout and say nothing... I had to say it was messy... they agreed.. is it that difficult???

    This was a new place for me to try and I loved it. There is a restaurant area and a bar with alot of TVs. It looks like a local favorite hang out spot. We decided to start with the meatballs. They were made well and juicy inside. Great start. The salads were crisp and the dressing had great flavor. We ordered wings to share and a medium pizza. There were some great sauces for the wings, Korean BBQ was the choice and it was not too sweet with some heat. The hand tossed sausage and ricotta came and we were in heaven. The crust was great. I feel this makes the pizza. Their sausage had a hearty flavor, not over spiced and the ricotta was creamy. I will say we took most of our dinner home to enjoy again. If I'm in this area again I will stop.

Our large group arrived at 12pm on Wednesday April 22, 2026, and was immediately received a warm welcome by Angelo, Mike and Chef Rocco! The Restaruant decor and atmosphere is an inviting welcoming any to all patrons. Drinks were offered whether it was a soft drinks, sangria, or their extensive array of wines, red, white, rose' and a bonus a small bottle of the wine of your chose which is economically cost than 2 glasses of wine! Our ladies dine on their Italian wedding soup as an appetizer which was hot, flavorful with tiny meatballs, escarole, tiny pasta, and savory broth. Entrees were a myriad of Chef Rocco's delightful dishes, carpaccio, chicken piccata, an array of pasta dishes, Italian sausage & peppers , meatball sandwiches, individual pizza's, and much more. However, the HUGE hit of the day mostly all seemed to desire was their chicken piccata! Oh so delicately delicious! Angelo not only made sure we were well cared for but also made sure our ladies will be part of an VIDEO ad of the rendition of "MAMA MIA" for their social media forums. Rossini is always an establishment that once you enter, you are treated as family! Entering the dining room is exactly how you would be welcome to sit at their table in their homes. Our ladies of Charlotte County Girlfriends Wednesday's Leisurely Luncheons Group are always ready to return to Rossini's. Don't miss out on enjoying an afternoon or evening of delicious food and atmosphere at Rossini's by Chef Rocco!

The next time we were in, we both had the Chicken Francese and I agree with my husband that it was very tasty. He was very reluctant to try Rossini's. It took alot of convincing to get my husband, who was raised eating his Mom's and Grandmother's Italian dishes, to ever go out to an Italian restaurant. As I've said, we went back for more and will again. Only downside was while the Caprese Salad was good, it was small for price and had only a minute amount of basil. Otherwise, GO. TRY IT. Believe you will enjoy Chef Rocco's creations along with the pleasant staff!
