Excellent service from the tine we checked in to when we left. Food outstanding from the appetizer to the main course.

Don't waste your money!! From nasty waiters to really bad food! Everything came out cold! The fish salad was disgusting! Check was split wrong at the end and the waiter got annoy when we told him! There are no redeeming qualities to this restaurant! Stay away! read more

Not only is the food wonderful here, the hospitality is absolutely the warmest. Fabulous ambience, great staff, amazing eggplant salad and brick chicken and a tremendous happy hour. You will leave here with a big smile!! read more

Our party of 4 asked to sit outside because the noise level inside is unbearable We had 2 small round tables each holding 2 people We had been at the restaurant 2 times before and had been served wonderful crusty bread with olives and cheese Tonight we just were served a white bread When we questioned the waitress she said the restaurant had made some changes Our food was decent including Pasta Vodka, and the Chicken dish We asked to see the manager to complain about the lack of decent bread and olives and cheese and when he finally came he couldn't care less that we were unhappy He said he would take our complaints under consideration and walked away after asking us if the food was ok We had told him this was our third visit to the restaurant! It will be our Last read more

The food as usual excellent. The service not as good as usual. My wife ordered clams over Linguini with a white wine sauce. The chef said he was much too busy to do this. Not like them at all. The manager came over to our table when we were finishing up. He said if the problem comes up again to ask for him and he will take care of it . read more

MIA ROSEBUD in Boca Raton is the latest expansion of this historic & iconic Chicago based restaurant group. Recipes date back decades in this loud, proud & endearing red sauce "joint". Food & bevvy's were exactly what the 3 of us expected & received...terrific wine list by the glass & bottle, classic cocktails, housemade & hearty sausage/peppers, light & tender calamari, juicy & savory chicken parm, bright & flavorful chicken milanese and rich & creamy tortellini carbonara. This is Italian/American family style dining as we took 1/2 of everything home. AJ provided friendly & knowledgeable service. We'll definitely return for their lively happy hour where most bar food/drink is priced around $8. (PSA's, reservations accepted by cc, valet parking, inside/outside seating & bar, $35 corkage fee, $5 split plate fee) read more

Went in the other night for dinner had an amazing experience. Lisa was our server. She was extremely attentive, knowledgeable, and accommodating. She recommended the fish of the day ( which I ordered) it was delicious. Everything she recommended we ordered from A-to-Z. It was perfect. We will definitely be back and ask for her. Thank you for everything. See you again soon! read more

Food was fantastic. Service was great! Matt the bartender was very accommodating. Nice atmosphere and location.

Great place great atmosphere phenomenal service.. Best Italian food around. Highly recommend have to try the meatballs.

Food and Service always top notch! Best Italian restaurant in South Florida. Ambience, food, and service were all top notch. Top quality steaks and chops and apps were amazing. I especially loved the sausage and peppers lemon butter shrimp. Had a unique cut of steak which they call "The Carmine". Basically a filet mignon chop which was cooked perfectly. My date had the lobster Francese which was served with the creamiest risotto I've had in a while. We finished the evening with a home made banana cream pie which was divine. Very highly recommend. read more

We decided to try one of Boca's newest Italian for our Anniversary. When I walked in I admired the lovely dining room. It was romantic and inviting. We had a reservation but the lovely hostess accommodated us with a more central table than originally offered. It was a bit disappointing to see that they don't have a dress code. On to the food: for appetizers we ordered the mussels (wow nice portion), and a chopped wedge (good). After seeing the size of the portions being served around us, I decided on the lamb appetizer (very tasty), while the others ordered a chicken and veal parm. I think everyone forgets that this is a Chicago Italian chain and the portions are family size. So overall it was too much food for our small party. My husband could not enjoy his bc the Parmesan was in the breading, and it was sharp. I love cheese and it was overwhelming even for me. There is no sommelier so know your Italian wines or go with California ones (most were quite overpriced). The service was okay. We weren't rushed but I had to initiate almost all of our ordering. The manager seemed very nice. Would I go back? I don't think so. read more

Great service at the Happy Hour! The drinks were delicious! We had the eggplant salad which we shared among 3 of us! The banana cream pie is to die for!! Definitely recommend! read more

I don't understand where his other reviews are coming from. I was excited to go there. I got lucky and found a parking space almost in front, and then sat at the bar, proceeded to order the stuff mushrooms they sent me for tiny mushrooms, stuffed with breadcrumbs. it was just eatable also. they had a special on garlic knots, which turned out to be par. Bake bread with olive oil and granulated garlic, horrible !!! My next appetizer was the sausage and peppers allegedly roasted they showed up with peppers that might've been Rocha, but they left the skin on with sausages that were horrible first thing you taste is salt in fact, it was so salty I left it is time for the check the person next to me got their eggplant Parmesan that showed up with Parmesan cheese and mozzarella cheese that has zero fat content they are using very Cheap product from Food Service so disappointing and they should be embarrassed read more

This was my first visit to this restaurant and will be my last for a long while. Service was SLOW! We were required to order appetizers at the same time as the entrees in order to "expedite" the process. We sat down at 6:45 and entrees took about an hour and a half to come out, despite the early ordering. Let's start with the food: Appetizers were Caesar Salad, which looked nice, but had almost zero dressing making it just lettuce, etc. on a plate. Meatballs were tasty, but were barely warm as well as the sauce, stuffed mushrooms were good (FYI they did have lots of breadcrumbs, but were juicy and tasty). Entrees: Filet Mignon was good quality meat, decent char on the steak, but still hardly seasoned and lacking flavor, French fries were tasteless and a waste of space on the plate, chicken parmesan was pretty good, but not great. It was a rather large portion, but also a very thick layer on both sides of breading and a rather thin chicken breast throughout. Tortellini Carbonara (server recommendation) was also nearly tasteless and pasta very al dente/borderline undercooked and came out just warm. Unless there was a piece of prosciutto/bacon in the bite, it was nearly flavorless. This dish was sent back. Cheese ravioli, which were just mediocre at best, and a side of crispy potatoes which were disappointing. Servers were nice, although not the most attentive. 20+ minutes for each individual glass of wine was not great. When something was said about it, we had the glass of wine in 60 seconds which leads us to believe it was just sitting on the bar waiting to be delivered. We had a birthday (one of 5 happening that evening) and they couldn't figure out how to play a birthday song correctly. They had 5 different recorded versions, that were very loud and started and stopped and started and stopped 3 times during their singing of happy birthday for each individual celebrating. A little irritating, but not a deal breaker... We had brought our own specialty made birthday cake in addition to wanting to order dessert from the restaurant, however, the server recommended a dessert that we waited for and when they came back with our cake, they told us they were all out... So, that was another bummer. Check came back with the dish still on it that was sent back and took another 20 minutes to resolve it between the staff/modifying checks, etc. To sum it up, we are not food critics, but have had the pleasure of dining at some of the finest establishments and the food at Mia Rosebud and entire dining experience left a lot to be desired. Maybe they still need iron out some issues, including food quality, timeliness of service, etc. but it's still a big "if" we were to try it again. read more

Steaks are excellent..... prime meats from Midwest. Ambiance is very nice and the service is excellent. Pasta is done right.

Disappointing from the get go:- I always have a problem when a restaurant charges for valet parking- $10 to park plus tip. Money grab. Restaurant was VERY loud, mussels appetizer was good, but chicken parm and linguini in clam sauce both were very disappointing quality,I sent my chicken back and waiter did adjust our bill. Service was ok, not great. Too many better restaurants thank this. OH Well. read more

The worst meal of this year last night . Noisy, bad service, extremely long wait for food and the food was terrible . Would never go back to this place. read more

All pasta overcooked. My fish smelled so bad I could not eat it. Ruined my evening. Service was mediocre. Very busy nite might have been the problem here. read more

This is the place to go when you want great Italian food, with great prices and big portions. Great place for special occasion or just a casual night out. Great happy hour as well. Service is also great. We've enjoyed many times and look forward to our next visit! read more

While most of the food was 5 star quality we ordered the pork chop specialty which comes with 2 chops. One was cooked perfect and the other was still raw inside as we cut it in half. When we sent it back they tried to recook the already cut pork chop instead of serving a new one which is not the appropriate approach for a restaurant of this caliber. The pork chop that they brought back was now torched and tough and inedible so we sent that back again. Instead of comping the entire dish which should be the minimum in this scenario the manager approved a 50% credit of that entree as we only ate half. This is insane and almost comical. I hate to leave a review like this as the food is mostly great and the ambiance is even nice but the way this situation was handled was terrible and had to be noted. I hope they change their ways going forward and they will be a success. read more

The food was exceptional and we enjoyed it immensely. The service was less than mediocre. We had a very cute waitress who I'm sure just got her first job as a waitress. Everything had to be asked for twice. I understand they have been very busy only open a week but I did not expect to be seated in the bar, at a corner table for 3 when we were 4 people with a reservation at 5:45 pm. Next time I'll be sure to reserve a table in the dining room and if they don't have it I will go somewhere else. read more

Great menu . Really rude woman at bar. Mgr is the best as are the food servers. Will come again, but need to train the bar staff much 5 stars for Geri. The food is good. The hostess is extremely rude. The female bartender is horrible. The managers are pleasant 1 Star read more

We were celebrating a friend's birthday and decided to give it a try on Friday evening. We were seated on time for our reservation and were promptly offered choice of water. Our waiter asked for our drink order and they came promptly. There is no lack of wait service here-something a bit unusual in this day and age. Our appetizers consisted of baked clams-less than average and fried calamari served with a side of cocktail sauce.-we've had better. The birthday girl ordered the "house specialty"-homemade pasta with a tomato basil sauce. Another friend ordered the bolognese and I ordered the special-halibut with ratatouille. The bolognese was very very good. The house specialty was extremely bland. The halibut was a bit undercooked for my taste and I asked for it to be cooked a bit more. In less than two minutes it was delivered back to me and the only difference was that it was very hot. It didn't really seem any more well done than previously. (The halibut was $52 fyi). The ratatouille was delicious. Desserts presented a different situation. My friend only likes Italian (ricotta) cheesecake. The menu offered their special cheesecake. When asked it if was Italian cheesecake the waiter replied that it was Italian cheesecake Chicago style (the restaurant originated in Chicago). The Cheescake arrived with a topping of cherry something-not mentioned on the menu. This friend has a fatal allergy to some dried fruits and asked for a fresh piece with no sauce, which arrived promptly. The cheesecake was not Italian cheesecake and I can't even say it was NY cheesecake because, NY cheesecake is tasty and this was quite bland. I ordered the cannoli. Two large pieces arrived with a good filling sprinkled with mini chocolate chips. However the ends were decorated in something that looked like bright green tiny balls. What were they? They weren't dyed chocolate pieces. When we asked about them we were told they were peanuts. Good thing we didn't have a peanut allergy. It seems so odd that with peanut allergies being so prevalent this was not mentioned on the menu. (To say nothing of the green food dye). I find it annoying when items are omitted from the description on the menu since so many people have food allergies. (BTW-unlike in many fine dining, and not so fine dining, restaurants we are often asked about food allergies before the server takes the order. This didn't happen here) . The atmosphere was lovely, although as the place filled up, so did the noise level. As the noise level increased, so did the volume of the music! All in all, the service was mostly good and the food was mostly so so for the price point. We won't be going back. read more

Food and service were excellent, but no better than other fine Italian restaurants I've eaten at. Unfortunately, my party of 5 will not return, as the music was so loud that we couldn't have a conversation without yelling. It was like being in a dance club in the 80s. The music was fine, but exceedingly loud, and while we asked a few times to lower it, they didn't comply. They say it was because it was Saturday night. What difference does that make? read more

Chicken parmigiana was tough. Sauce on penne side dish was not good. I think the complimentary bread was focaccia with rosemary on top. Took one bite, it was dry and flavorless even with olive oil. Server said the Cannoli had pistachios on the ends but it was actually peanuts dyed with bright green food coloring. On a positive note the Caesar salad was good. Enough for two people. The ambiance was nice. However, it was not worth the money spent. There are plenty of other good Italian restaurants in Boca and I will not return to Mia Rosebud. read more

Stopped in for happy hour. Nice ambiance, good happy hour menu (daily HH from 4-6). Although the prices on the regular menu are really high and the offerings were rather typical. This was surprising considering the 3 other Italian restaurants within a stones throw. With that much competition, I would think they would want to differentiate themselves a bit. Overall a decent place and bartenders were friendly but not sure we'll go back. If we do, it will be just for the happy hour. read more

Went once for dinner and once for happy hour and just very unimpressed for the price point. Service is mediocre at best. Servers didn't know how to serve and couldn't keep orders straight. Music is kept extremely loud that it prevents conversations. We asked the waiter if it could be lowered and said it was a common complaint but this is how the manager likes it. So I guess they want you to eat and leave as soon as possible. For happy hour the service was slow at first but the drinks were good and priced reasonably. The happy hour appetizers is another story. I ordered a steak slider for $9 for which I received one small slider on a plate. It was overcooked to boot. The two other people in my group also order different sliders to which they received one and it theirs was overcooked as well. How that was presented with a straight face was beyond me. This place has been open a while and still has issues to work out. Hope they do so soon or they will be nothing more than a memory. Too many better choices in Boca to be mediocre. Go to Louie Bossi next door if you want a better option. I Won't be back. read more

Mother's Day Dinner for me was disappointing. Heard good things so maybe my expectations were too high but living in Boca Raton with an abundance of great restaurants, their new presence in Boca, for me, missed the mark. Appetizers were OK but the calamari was not very crispy and served with a sauce that tasted like just ketchup. Meatballs were tasty, served with a marinara sauce we used to dip the calamari in. Portions were quite large, there were 4 in our party, and while the rest of the family thought their entrees, were good mine was bland. Being of Italian heritage and know good Italian food, I cannot, in all honesty recommend this restaurant. Service was also not on point, especially for a restaurant of this size and stature. All I need is good food, prepared properly and good service at a reasonable price and Mia Rosebud did not deliver. read more

food is overrated & overpriced service is not good and certainly not worth the price you are paying servers standing around doing nothing and certainly not attending to the customers ambiance and atmosphere is average at best not worth it we will not be returning if that says anything save your money we wish them well and maybe home office will step in and realize that current management and training is missing this place needs a crash course in 5 star dining and service read more

Great food, vibe, service. From a group that has 10 restaurants in Chicago - they had the meal dialed in!

I couldn't wait for this restaurant to open in his not disappointing that her multiple times and every time it gets better and better the seafood salad is fresh and amazing but you have to try the chicken Parm nobody does it better and last but not least the meatballs are second to none my Nana's. We're pretty good these are unbelievable. read more

Had a nice time, service was good, portions were huge and ambience was good. We need more Chicago people in boca, the New Yorkers are ruining it... read more

A very very good experience, the ambience, food, weight staff, superb. The flavors were excellent in the food.

The service was excellent. Our server, Ellen's buby personality was perfect. She was attentive and on time op of our order. The food was AMAZING! Our group ordered different items and no one had a complaint! read more

Food, service and ambiance were off the charts. One of the best dining experiences I've had in Boca in the 2 years I am here! From the pasta to the meat everything was cooked and served to perfection. I'm lucky enough to live around the corner from this restaurant but would travel far and wide to eat here! read more

Food Taste was just about the only good thing about this place. We arrived there at 9:15pm (with a pre booked reservation that I had to put my credit card down to hold it) (they close at 10pm but have reservations on there site till 11pm) they didn't have any tables set when we got there. The server was great. But the music was shut off in the place before our main course was served, the whole vibe of the place was pushing us out, very poor management at a place they make to be high class. And what set us off the most is we ordered ICE CREAM (spumoni Gelato) and they told us they have no one to make it and no one was back there. (As there was people talking in the kitchen during this time, including the manager). Like you couldn't take scoops of ice cream in a bowl... LAZY LAZY. We usually eat this type of food at MORTONS THE STEAKHOUSE, and wanted to try something new. But this place doesn't compare. I will never be back here solely based on the management and how they were pushing us out of the place before we even sat down read more

The service was the worst I have ever experienced. Worse than a fast food restaurant. We had a 6:45 reservation and entered around 6:40. We then stood there in front of the hostess stand for around 10 minutes while the three hosts stood there avoiding eye contact and not speaking. Eventually after numerous attempts to get their attention, we were greeted with a "oh, thought you were apart of another group". After being sat it took around 5 minutes to get menus, and another 15 before our server came to get our drink order. This is where things really went south. After a long wait to get our drinks (a martini and a red wine) the server proceeds to spill half the martini taking it off of the tray, into the wine. She attempted to then still serve the wine with martini inside of it. We eventually get an appetizer and food, our server taking an excessive amount of time between each. The food was great! Zero complaints there. We asked our server for parmesan cheese and after around 10 minutes of our food sitting on the table we flagged down the manager and he brought some. Our server never showed up and never mentioned it. Before even being halfway done with our meals our drinks and waters. Again, we had to ask someone else for help with this. Our server came shortly after and we asked her as well. While asking, she asked if she could "take our plates" which were halfway full and still being actively eaten from. When we said no she said "oh well you clearly haven't touched it in a while" . Maybe because we need water with our meal! There were two seperate occasions where the wrong food was brought to our table after we were done eating. We also witnessed her spill another drink all over the table next to us. Again, the food was great, but this server clearly cannot handle 4 tables and needs to be retrained. read more

I am writing this review as I leave the restaurant because I am so disappointed in a place & have never had an experience like this at a restaurant in this area. I will start off with what the single star worth. The food we got here was amazing, truly. So well made. Besides that, this place was a huge disappointment. We had made a reservation at 9:15 online w the last reservation being 11 & apparently they close at 10. They had my boyfriend put his card down so I can only imagine how much more angry we would have been at this whole situation if we made a reservation later. We had come for our anniversary (which was specified) and even with that we were not treated properly. This is an upscale restaurant & they were doing closing tasks from the minute we sat down (around 9:20, we were 5 minutes late). That didn't matter to us though, what baffled us was that exactly at 10 the music shut off. How disrespectful! While our waitress was good, she was kind, gave recommendations, & had a great sense of humor, she was encouraging us to not order difficult dishes and continued to remind us that it was just her and her manager (when we could see & hear other employees YELLING across the restaurant) . We were denied our request of a dessert of spumoni gelato because there "was no one in the kitchen". I think the team forgot that we were sitting feet away from the kitchen and could hear the employees trying to give the simple task of scooping gelato off to another staff member. I completely understand the frustration a restaurant & its employees could feel for a late party, however, we walked out of the place at 10:25 after paying (only 25 minutes after close!!!) and as someone who has worked in many restaurants before, employees shouldn't be leaving before 20-30 minutes after close. Side work should not begin until close at a typical restaurant never mind an upscale place like this! There are far too many amazing places around here for a place to act like this. If you're looking more for a steakhouse & great cocktails 100% go to Morton's Steakhouse in Boca. That is truly how a restaurant should be ran. If you're looking for more of an Italian restaurant with great wine go right next door to louie bossi or to delray to Elizabettas. After a whole days of work to end my anniversary like this was truly the biggest disappointment. I could write so many more little details about how awful this place was but this is already way too long lolol. read more
