    Squash blossom pizza
    Lynn R.

    Rollati offers an aesthetic dining experience right across from city hall in DTSJ. The best thing we had was the garlic bread which was buttery, cheesy, and just the right mix of crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle. The broccolini was well cooked and very zesty. The squash blossom pizza was not a hit for us, it was bland and the crust was too chewy for our preference. I didn't try anything non-veg so maybe I'm missing out some of their better dishes. Service was just fine. This place is great for groups for a special occasion and nice pics.

    Fusilli Al Pesto with Chicken Addition
    Steven C.

    It's always a great time when I'm with my friends for our traditional birthday get-togethers. One of them recommended this restaurant and I was very excited to try it based on the pics and reviews. I'm really glad we went! [[ Location ]] It's right next to San Jose City Hall and the website directs you to the 4th Street Garage which has 90 minutes of free parking which is plenty of time to scarf down a meal. I think I only paid $1.00 since we ate for 2 hours but I honestly think it was very convenient and cheap. Very quick walk to the restaurant from the parking lot. [[ Restaurant ]] This restaurant is BEAUTIFUL. I really love the aesthetics inside the restaurant and all the furniture, seats, etc. were very pretty and maintained very well. Whoever they hired to do the interior/exterior really knows what they are doing. [[ Food ]] It can be a little pricey but they make it up with excellent flavor, good portion sizes, and beautiful presentation. Take a look at my pics to get a preview. There's really not much we didn't enjoy from this meal. I'll list out what we ordered and I'll put a star on what I think was super delicious. Appetizers: 1.) Mediterranean Salad 2.) AntiPasto Main Dishes: 1.) Fusilli Al Pesto with Chicken Add-On* - Great Pesto Sauce 2.) Spicy Pie* - love the sweet Chili Honey 3.) Chicken Parmesan - HUGE piece, moist chicken 4.) Chicken Picatta* - So creamy Dessert: 1.) Tiramisu* 2.) Strawberry Shortcake 3.) Chocolate Budino Thank you for the restaurant for also giving me a birthday cannoli with a candle on it. That was very sweet! [[ Conclusion ]] We will definitely be back to try out more of their menu. Really enjoyed our time here!

    "THOUSAND" LAYER LASAGNA
    Amanda N.

    So happy get to finally try this place. Such a cute aesthetic restaurant inside. Got espresso martini as a drink and it did not disappoint. We had 4 people total at dinner and portions were perfect. Onto the food.. Cesar salad: good portion to share. The parmigiano crisp was good. 4/5 Spicy pie: my favorite of the night. Super flavorful and huge to share 5/5 Thousand layer lasagna: this was good and loved the details. Not my favorite but worth it to try 4/5 Chicken piccata: this was also good, but too much sauce. 4/5 Cannoli: very sweet 4/5 Affogato: recommended for coffee lovers 5/5 Overall good food, vibes, and company. Service was good and staff were attentive. The restaurant didn't wow me, but recommended to try or to celebrate someone.

    Rigatoni Alla Vodka
    Miranda L.

    Headed over for dinner with a friend on a Friday night at around 6:30 pm and they were able to seat our table of 2 immediately. The menu was simple and had classic items that were easy to decide from. The interior was very modern, moody with dark fixtures and a really cool bar area at the entrance. Rollati's Caesar - This was very fresh and a great start to our meal. The vegetables were crunchy and balanced with the dressing, parmesan cheese, light parmesan crisps and the croutons. Rigatoni Alla Vodka - The handmade pasta had a good al dente texture and it was the perfect pasta shape to hold the housemade sauce which was a little spicy and punchy. Prosciutto Di Parma Pie - A classic pizza. It was thin but held the toppings well and the crust was light making it easy to eat the whole thing. The melted stracciatella on top was a highlight from the texture and creaminess. We enjoyed their take on some classic Italian dishes and would love to try their other dishes for dinner again!

    My family and I visited this restaurant after my nephew's christening, and it was quite good. They offer a modern Italian twist to the food. We started with an antipasto appetizer featuring marinated olives, which was delicious. My mom couldn't stop eating the olives! For our main course, we had the crispy chicken Parmesan sandwich. I thought it was amazing and really juicy, but some family members mentioned it was overcooked. The waiter recommended the rigatoni alla vodka, which was the house special, but it fell short of expectations. It tasted just like spaghetti--nothing particularly special or unique about it. For dessert, we enjoyed a delicious cannoli. I have a sweet tooth, so I loved it, although the black cherries were a bit too sweet. Still, it was good overall. Even though the food was average, I would still return. Honestly, I enjoy anything Italian! The restaurant itself is very beautiful, making it great for a family dinner or a nice date. However, be aware that parking may be hard to find, but don't let that deter you from visiting!

    Branzino

    We had dinner here for the first time on a Monday evening at 6:30pm with a party of 5 people. We made a reservation a few days before to celebrate my mom's birthday. Entering the restaurant was so clean and aesthetic. I was in love with the interior decor and the cutlery on our table. Our server was so nice and SUPER attentive. She explained the menu to us as it was our first time and it helped us decide what to order. We all ordered drinks: not so prickly margarita (no alcohol), Negroni, aperol spritz (2), caviar martini, and a glass of st. Francis red wine. All the drinks were quite tasty! For the appetizers we ordered: Marinated olives - I personally love olives so this was a solid 10/10 for me Mozzarella sticks - 11/10 because of the the cheese pull and that in itself means it was prepared properly and fried to perfection. I loved that there were 2 dipping sauces - a marinara sauce and ranch Ricotta meatballs - 9/10 I loved the sauce but personally I would have 86ed the ricotta, otherwise it was delicious! Garlic bread - 10/10 loved the crunchy crust and the bread was soft/chewy. I loved that it didn't feel oily like most garlic bread Entrees. We ordered a good amount and shared between the 5 of us Rigatoni alla Vodka - 10/10 sauce was great and loved the kick at the end Spaghetti alla limon - 10/10 very light and not what I expected, in a good way. Compliments the branzino we ordered very nicely and I wish I ordered a glass of white wine Stuffed Whole Branzino - 12/10 best fish I have had at an Italian restaurant. Great job! Thousand layer lasagna - 10/10 very unique and loved the flavors Chicken Parmesan - 8/10 it was delicious no doubt but personally not my favorite dish. I'm not a fan of chicken parm so I don't think my opinion does it justice. However, the rest of the table loved it. I would definitely come back to try other dishes and order the spaghetti alla limon with the branzino again. I want to try the other cocktails as well. This was a great first impression and I can't wait to come back!

    Prosciutto Pie
    Anabelle H.

    I really wanted to love this place but was just left with a disappointing experience. My friends and I wanted to go out for a nice dinner and were recommended Rollati. I had higher than average expectations because it was kind of difficult to snag a reservation plus the prices were on the higher end. Ultimately, we ended up securing a spot around 9 PM on a Friday night and headed to dinner excitedly. We came a little bit earlier than our reservation and were seated immediately (yay!). The ambiance was quiet and romantic.. perfect for a date or a nice group hangout. However, it just went downhill from there. Our waitress came, took our drink orders and we took a few minutes to look through the menu. When we were ready to order, we waited for her to come by and she kept passing us by without acknowledging us. We thought, maybe she's busy tending to other tables and that's okay. So after a few more minutes of not being acknowledged, we gave her a little wave to let her know we were ready. She came by and let us know she'll be back to take our order. Fast forward to 10 minutes later, our order still had not been taken yet and my group and I were starting to get frustrated. Eventually, she came around and took our orders. Our food came out about 10 minutes later. My boyfriend and I got the Rigatoni Alla Vodka with Chicken and a Prosciutto Pie. We were really excited to start digging in but after we took the first bite, we were so disappointed. I'm sorry but the rigatoni was the blandest pasta I had ever tasted. And even when you did taste a little something, the flavor was nothing more than canned tomato sauce. We had to drown our pasta in parmesan to make it a little bit more flavorful. The Prosciutto Pie was not bad but also not good enough to justify the price. What I didn't like was how hard it was to separate the slices of pizza. Every time I tried to grab a piece, the slice I was pulling kept dragging the prosciutto from its neighbor. I did enjoy the dollops of mozzarella on top though. My friends also agreed that their dishes were lacking in flavor and were just disappointing. When we were ready for the bill, we again tried to get the attention of our waitress but to no avail. Whenever we did manage to flag her down, she just kept saying she'll be right back but didn't return for another 10-15 minutes. This was ultimately such a frustrating experience and I would not come back or recommend Rollati to my friends and family. Food was underwhelming, service was terrible, price was not worth it. The only thing that was nice was the ambiance.

    Saw some videos of Rollati on TikTok and the food looked amazing, so decided to give it a try on a Friday night! We made a reservation just in case, but there were some vacant tables. Restaurant has a classy feel to it and the food looks aesthetic. Got the mushroom arancini to split and then I ordered the Rigatoni Alla Vodka and my friend got the Spaghetti Alla Limon. Mushroom Arancini (3.5/5): Small portion size (only three arancini). The puree was nice and creamy but it had a touch of sweetness that caught me off guard. I wished it was more savory and more flavorful Rigatoni Alla Vodka (3.5/5): Good amount of pasta. I appreciated how there was lots of sauce but the dish could have used some more seasoning and cheese because the flavors didn't pop for me. Friend really liked the Spaghetti Alla Limon! Amazing customer service! Our waitress was very kind and checked in every so often. The dishes looked great but that being said, I thought they could have been more flavorful given the price point. The bill came out to be almost $100 including tip for the two of us. Overall, I would give Rollati a 3.5, rounding down to 3 as I am unsure if I would go out of my way to return

    The food is very tasty. Got the chance to go three times and every single time was a great time. I love when a restaurant is consistent! Ham & Brie pie, yum. Spicy Pie, yum. Cocktails, yum. The staff is always super friendly! Very attentive & give great options. The location is super aesthetically pleasing! Cute girls night or date night!

    Harleen K.

    This place is okay but not memorable. The service was amazing but overall would not comeback for the food. The only stand out was the pizza which was Neopolitan style so the dough was really nice and soft. The vodka sauce pasta was alright but the pasta was a minute or two away from being actually al dente, this was hard.

    Rollati birthday card for the birthday girl :)

    I had dinner here with a few friends on a Friday night and we had the best time! We have been trying to eat here for a while but they're usually booked at least a week in advance for indoor seating. During our visit it was busyyyyy! We even had to wait approx 10 mins for our table even with a reservation. Shout out to our waitress, Adylene! She was really friendly and professional. She knew from our online reservation that we were there for a birthday, she asked about everyone's dietary restrictions and preferences, and more :-). I was pleasantly surprised by the price point of all the food. For how beautiful the restaurant is and its location, they serve great quality food for a reasonable price IMO. My friend and I shared the chicken picatta and the spicy pie. Both delicious!! The chicken picatta was a great portion and the mashed potatoes were fluffy and so flavorful. The spicy pie was loaded with crispy curly pepperoni and the crust was pillowy soft. Then the birthday girl got served a complimentary pistachio cannoli. Just the right amount of sweet. Perfect was to end the night.

    STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE PANNA COTTA
    Jenny K.

    The branzino was very tender, had a nice crust to it, and had great flavor from the sauce. The panna cotta was delicious paired with strawberries and the texture was so smooth! Highly recommend

    We arrived for a Friday lunch celebrating our daughter's college graduation. Parking was only available either through street parking or the parking garage across the street. The Italian hotspot, Rollati Ristorante is located in downtown San Jose in a fairly nice area across the City Hall. As soon as you walk in, there was an upscale and lavish vibe going on. The modern stylish decor definitely stood out. Since we had a large party, we were seated in a private area away from the other room full of tables. It was nice in that side of the room as it was less noisy and cluttered. I ordered a three course meal that was a great deal. First the Caesar salad was very tasty. I love Caesar salads and this one did not disappoint. Next I enjoyed the Rigatoni Alla Vodka pasta. You can just taste the freshness of the homemade pasta. Lastly for dessert the mini cannoli was sweet and savory. We were sharing each other's foods and everything was delicious. The staff was very friendly and attentive throughout the lunch. Overall we enjoyed our experience at Rollati Ristorante especially for a special occasion. If we happen to be in the area and we're craving Italian food, we'll be back for sure.

Beef raviolis: small but packed with meat and in their meat sauce. Flavorfull! 3. Arancini: I've never tried one. It's a rice ball filled with veggies, cheese and ground meat. Then rolled in breadcrumbs and deep fried. Then served with their sauce. Holy Moly!!! Why have I never had this heavenly piece of Italy?!?!?! Seasoned well and fried well. It's a meal in it of itself! 4. Garlic bread: hot, buttery, garlicky toasted goodness! The only thing I finished was the arancini. I took a bite of each of the rest just so I could write this review and will save for my sons for when I get home because it's all too good not to be shared. Will be back!

My hubby and I loved the ravioli so much that we made a point to check out the shop ourselves during the Goombahs Car Show in Downtown Willow Glen last Sunday. They offer so many authentic Italian & Sicilian treats here, like cannoli, various desserts and cookies, gelato, a full espresso bar, freshly made pasta, panini, focaccia, cornetti, and more! They even have vegan and gluten-free options which is a huge plus in our book! It's just a sweet little slice of Italy right there in San Jose. The lady who took our pasta order was so friendly, and we were mentioning to her that something in the shop reminded us of something we had when we were in Taormina and also this great Italian cafe in Sydney, Australia (there are a lot of Italians there too!). We definitely felt the warm welcome of this family-owned business, and truly appreciate that everything here is made with high-quality ingredients imported from Italy. My MIL also ordered a beautiful cannoli cake for her grand-daughter's/our niece's 10th birthday that we were celebrating that same day, and it was loved by all, especially the little birthday girl who loooves her cannoli! Grazie mille, Dolce Sicilia!

Then I realized the video was highlighting the best food spots in San Jose! I live in West SJ and it's a 20 minute drive to Antipasto, but I didn't mind, I had to find out for myself. I hurried up and went there immediately, only to realize they were closed on Mondays. My mistake, I actually went online to check their schedule, and got into the menu a bit too passionately, that I forgot to actually check their hours. So I went back on Wednesday, and decided to double check that they were actually open this time. Upon walking in, I was a little intimidated to be honest. Everybody looked like a regular, while I walked around like a headless chicken trying to figure out which side of the store to go to. Nick noticed that, and went out of his way from behind the counter to guide me and my wife. He let us know where to go for sandwiches, the butcher, raviolis, etc... Me and my wife got the lasagna dinner with 2 meatballs, and TBC beef ravioli W/ salads. It was love at first bite. This place was better than all the Italian places in San Jose, without a doubt. Yes, I'm talking to you Original Joes and Maggiannos. All throughout our meal, we noticed people chatting with Nick and the rest of the staff as if they were family. Who knows they might be! Nick continued to include us by talking to us and making us feel welcomed. We are fans for life! Great food, great service, what else can you ask for? I just can't believe I never knew about this place after living in San Jose for 30 years.

    i use to grab lunch here when i worked around the corner years ago. never thought too much about…read moretheir food but everyone just speaks so highly about this place. after so many years i came back to try their steak sandwich, tri-tip sandwich, meatball sandwich, and beef ravioli with meat sauce. my firsts visit, i ordered the tri-tip sandwich and it was decent. meat was dry and drenched in bbq sauce. i think thats the only flavor you taste. the second time, i got the steak sandwich. their steak sandwich was the blandest sandwich i've ever had. didn't even seem like they threw on salt and pepper. i did not enjoy this whatsoever. i honestly just took the steak out of the sandwich and dipped it in A1 sauce. threw away the bread, lettuce, and tomato because it was all so soggy. it took me a while to return, and when i finally did ... i ordered a meatball sandwich and the beef ravioli with meat sauce. the beef ravioli was ok imo. strange how people are saying it's the best ravioli ever. the meatball sandwich too was ok. i did love the cheese pull when i took the first half to eat. i can see why there are plenty of reviews saying that their food is on the bland side because i definitely agree. it's honestly not worth the cost and yes, everyone there is not the nicest. you'll most likely deal with someone rude there than someone nice. after trying different foods each time, i think ive given them enough chances. no need to go back for ok food and rude service. i'll take my hard earned money elsewhere.

    Great food, Great hospitality, and everyone was so friendly. One of the best pastas and pizzas I…read morehave ever had, definitely come here.

    I had a coworker recommend this spot as one of the better Italian places in the area, so I wanted…read moreto check it out--and it definitely lived up to the hype. The carbonara was amazing--served super hot with great flavor and a solid amount of meat. Easily a 10/10. One tip though: eat it while it's hot, because once it cools down, it's not quite the same. The seafood pasta was also a standout. Everything tasted fresh, the flavors were on point, and it felt surprisingly light for a pasta dish. You know how pasta can sometimes feel heavy? This didn't have that at all. Another 10/10. The pesto pasta (a special that day) was just okay for me. It leaned a bit too oily, and the pesto flavor didn't really come through. They added ricotta, which kind of overpowered everything else. I did like the portion and the amount of meat, but overall I'd give it a 7/10. The ambiance was decent--nothing too special, but clean and comfortable. Service was excellent. It felt like a family-run place--three brothers along with their wives and kids--and everyone was super friendly and welcoming. They gave great recommendations and even helped accommodate my mom by seating us closer to the bathroom, which I really appreciated. Just a heads up: it's in downtown Los Gatos, so parking can be a bit tricky since there's no private lot. Overall, I'd definitely recommend this place. The portions and quality justify the price, and it stands out as one of the better Italian spots in the Bay Area.

    My cousin & I shared the following: -strawberry salad (4/5);…read morewish there was a lil more goat cheese crumbles but it was yummy. Sweet of our server to ask them to split it for us. -tagliatelle & truffle cream sauce (5/5) chicken was tender & flavors were great, the truffle wasn't overpowering at all -chicken parm with fettuccine (5/5) really good flavors & the chicken still had a lil crisp for parts not drenched in the savory marinara sauce We also got a mocktail; I got one topped with a lychee, very refreshing & not too sweet. Our server was very attentive & fun to talk to. Thanks for taking great care of us! Will def be back for their yummy homemade pasta :) Ambiance is nice, glad we were able to sit in the back away from the hustle & bustle in the main area.

    I ordered pasta bolognese. The sauce was too soupy with little bit of beef in it. You know when you…read moretrim your nails and then you clean up and hold the mess in the middle of your palm? That's how much beef in the plate and I can't pick up with my fork because they're so tiny it fell right off! The girl next table ordered the same thing and my reaction was "oh no...." The pasta texture was kinda hard and crumbly as if it was cooked last night half way thru and reheat in the microwave just before serving. Everything was just so wrong and I eventually had to tell the waitress to take it away and she was kind enough to not charge me for that plate. Me and my friend shared the seafood linguine with white wine sauce which turned out to be pretty good so that's the 2 stars. This is also the first time I've ever had to send a dish back to kitchen.
