Been hearing very nice things about Roselilly for a while (one of only 5 AAA 4-Diamond restaurants in the whole state of Indiana), so decided to take advantage of the Restaurant Weeks special to try it out. Nice cozy, "intimate", dining room, quiet, somewhat eclectic decor. Alexander was our server, and he did an outstanding job, very friendly, helpful, very knowledgeable on the dishes and the wines, but every one of the staff was great, as they helped each other out. Serving 6+ courses takes a lot of work. 6 course tasting menu, photo of the menu attached, everything was wonderful. They served an amuse bouche in addition to the 6 courses on the menu, which was a white gazpacho, that was very good. All 6 courses were amazing. My wife had the wine pairings, and was quite pleased with those as well. I'm not into wines, so I had the drink special, which was a watermelon margarita, which I liked as well. My personal favorite was the Hamachi, but the Chou Farsi got a lot of votes from the family. I also loved the Mille Feuille as well. Overall, a very good introduction to Roselilly. Now we'll have to go back for the regular menu. Only down side, as with any fine dining experience, it is a little pricey, but it's worth what you paid for. read more

Roselily - Tonight's 6 course tasting menu - New American Near Me - South Bend, Indiana

Came here for brunch and it was so good. First of all the zen cafe coffee --delicious! Blood orange mimosa was also good (a little on the too strong side for me. Not enough orange and too much of an alcohol taste. But I'm probably the only person w that complaint). Chicken and waffles and French toast also really good. Really reasonably priced food. Can't wait to try their other brunch and dinner options. read more

What can I say?!?! Roselily did not disappoint. We had a delightful experience. The entire staff was exquisite! We met Chef Eammon Owner/ Operator. He is so talented and extremely creative the way he puts his dishes together and the presentation is just as amazing. We did the 8 course VEGAN tasting and boy were our tastebuds having a party. The food seemed like it would never stop coming! Each portion was very small and on sight I'm thinking this little bit of food is just going to tease me, but by the time you are done tasting everything you are truly satiated. I'm a dessert person and one the tastings was this strawberry granita with coconut sorbet and a hibiscus type syrup of some sort! I could've had 8 of those!! But here's the thing...... they change the pairing menu daily!!!!! If I'm not mistaken. That part is a bummer if you find something you really enjoy and want to come back for it. We were visiting from Los Angeles and our nephew brought us here and we were so happy he did. Everyone was so welcoming and made us feel right at home. The ambiance and the music vibe was so on point. Roselily owes us NOTHING!! We showed up and they showed up!! The staff even spoiled my husband by signing his menu. We just can't say enough about this gem! Great job and keep up the good work. We wish you INFINITE PEACE AND BLESSINGS ALWAYS in whatever you put your GOOD intentions to. May God Richly Bless You All!! read more

Chef Eamonn McParland brings a new level of sophistication to the South Bend food scene. Had an excellent 8 course tasting menu with wine pairings. From start to finish the food carefully crafted as he manages to coax out all of the flavors in each dish to amazing results. One dish was slight salty for my tastes and after I mentioned it to our fantastic server, every dish that followed was perfectly seasoned for my taste buds, love when they care about their patrons and they really do here. If you love truly great food, do not miss this place, best restaurant in South Bend and surrounding area!!! read more

Roselily is soet of a continuation of Lstreet. I see some of the same employees. Theres a little bit of a facelift with a different sort of decor. I tjink they are going for a more streamlined urban asthetic. We arrived without a reservation...hostess quoted us a 30 minute wait. We decided to wait in the car ( they really dont have a lobby( At about 25 minutes we went back in-- my wife asked about our table. We got a very haughty. "I havent even touched my wait list..." So we decided to wait out in the car for a text. Finally it arrived and brunch could begin. The menu now sort of looks and reads like a hotel restaurant menu. There were also no specials. On Mothers Day. I would think an astute chef would make an iffering thats a guaranteed homerun, and can be served quickly to turn tables fast-- good for the guest and good for the bottom line. On to the actual food.... I had smoked salmon padtrami served with avocado and scrambled egg, some arugala on " elder bread". It was very good....the salmon pastrami was delicious and there was alot of it...scrambled eggs were soft and prepared like they do in Provence....kind of soft and slow cooked with a little bit too much butter. It was very good. My wife had the fried chicken biscuit with sausage gravy. The gravy was so thick you could bounce a quarter off it....biscuits were very good. Chicken was drier than I remember it.This item was a holdover from L streets menu. Roselilyhas some high points...but I miss the homeiness and warmth of Lstreet with its chalk special boards and mason jar water glasses. I was honestly a little shocked when the hostess snapped at us....probably will not return. read more

If you like to sit in the dark and when you can't read the menu and slightly elevate the switch to let more light in. To actually be able to read the menu the floor manager comes over and tells you literally " we let you read the menu " now we DIMM the lights" then it definitely is a perfect ambiance for you. Food looks great but does not taste as great as it looks and halibut is probably the thinnest piece served with broccolini for only $37 I have seen! Service was pleasant. read more

Came in with my wife and 21 month old daughter. We were having a mothers day brunch a day early due to work and other conflicts on actual mothers day. We were greeted at the door bu a friendly young woman and she had seated us fairly promptly. Looking at the menu and reading some reviews, I was pretty excited about trying thos restaurant specifically for brunch. The only other brunch spot we have found that we like is Uptown Kitchen in Heritage Square in Granger. So, we are excited to try this place. So after ordering some beverages I had ordered my daughter a side Farm Fresh Egg, and requested it to be scrambled, along with a side of fruit. When her food was delivered the waitress had brought out the full size meal which was called the Farm Fresh Scramble. I asked the waitress if this was the side order. The waitress had told me I ordered the full order. I then asked our waitress if she thinks a 21 month old was capable of eating a huge pile of eggs, and then handed it to her and told her to take it away. That was after I stopped her from trying to walk away from the situation and leave the food at the table. Accidents happen I totally understand, but restaurant etiquette 101 do not argue with a guest. After the wrong was corrected. My wife had ordered the Chicken and Biscuit with sausage gravy, and I ordered the Soft Shell Crab Poboy with a side of pork sausage. Everything was absolutely delicious. I had told my wife I am willing to pay $18 for a good well made Soft Shell Crab Sandwich. It was definitely worth the money and I will definitely order it again. However, there was 3 or 4 other entrees I definitely wanted to try as well. I will definitely be back to try that food. However, due to the staff trying to argue....3 stars. read more

Great food! The meatballs alone warrant a return trip! The service was attentive but not intrusive. When my tables candle died, another was brought over to maintain the ambiance for the evening. read more

So this review is a little behind and I know their menu changes often so now you know. But, I felt that our experience was so good that not leaving a review would be doing them an injustice. We started with the cheese and charcuterie board while we started draining a really good bottle of Pinot Noir. I got the pappardelle which was special and my wife got the fried green tomatoes and burrata as her meal. So good! We really enjoyed our dinner here and both agreed we would need to come back hungry and do the chef's tasting menu. read more

Had a lovely Chef's pairing dinner for the second time and loved the the Cabarnet Sauvignon (paired with the delightful Australian Wagyo beef) so much, they sent us home with a bottle! Also, if you ever get the chance to have their panna cotta with ice wine, take it and don't look back! Best thing I put in my mouth in a minute! read more

Phenomenal from start to finish. We have been multiple times, and I cannot overstate the attention to detail and dedication they have to providing a 5 star experience. From the food, to wine, to cocktails.. the preparation and expertise is absolutely exquisite. Please reserve a tasting dinner for your next special occasion, wine pairing is a plus.. I promise you will not regret it! read more

food is excellent, service and ambience are good. I have visited a few times and the food is always great, only bummer is that they only have wine and beer. read more

A bold move to open in renovated space (literally) on the other side of the tracks in the Renaissance District, across from the former Studebaker Admin Building, Eamonn McPartland and his team deliver an elevated dining experience right here in South Bend. A glass of white and a pint of Bells Oberon on draft got the evening started. My wife and I shared TRILLIUM tulip tree creamery (cheese spread) and carrot marmalade on warm toast was a tasty and fun first dish and followed it up with PETITE GREENS and snap peas, strawberries, pecorino, challah, black sesame, lightly and perfectly tossed with a lemon vinaigrette. My main course was the Halibut (pictured). It was so so good and fun to dip each bite in the beets, rye berries, and/or blood orange purée. My wife loved her RICOTTA GNUDI with oyster mushroom, peas, caramelized onion, bacon, and parmesan. And good thing we saved room to share a light, sweet CHOCOLATE dessert - espresso, marshmallow, caramel, ice cream. Our servers and bussers were friendly, helpful, and attentive. The dining room is tastefully decorated in a traditional, yet hip kind of way. Each table and seating is unique. The vibe in the room on this Friday night was very good and the room was almost full throughout our meal. What an asset to our community. With Roslily in the neighborhood, the Renaissance District may finally have its spark to become a happening spot in town. read more

Roselily - HALIBUT entree with celery root, rye berries, leeks, blood orange, beets. So so good! - New American Near Me - South Bend, Indiana

good beef tartare + citrus burst = next level beet salad + horseradish undertones = sublime our youngest tried her first oyster on a half shell and we told her "it's all downhill from here" it was SO FRESH and punchy with the granita! Roselily is the hibernating bear of South Bend. The staff was beyond attentive and catered to a special birthday in a way you won't find locally. Roselily loves food but they live for the hospitality they serve within their four walls! If you are so lucky to have Brenda as your server, you are in for a treat. We are reserving a date nite with the Chef's Tasting asap! read more

This review is about a week late but necessary. Roselily is doing some serious work in the kitchen and people need to know about it. Which I suspect they do since this place is consistently packed. I've been several times, the more recent right when they opened and by the time we finished our brunch, it was busy. Their food is simple and good. No fluff. The service is always excellent. The menu is constantly changing so I couldn't tell you what to get. Probably anything and you'd be just fine. No problem blowing money up in this joint! P.S. they have a tasting menu that looks pretty legit. Will be trying soon. read more

This is a five star scratch kitchen restaurant that's locally owned as well. I was a patron of L Street Kitchen which previously occupied the space and have since enjoyed Rose Lilly. Father to son business. I'm a fan. Everything on the menu is fresh and delicious. Worth stopping by. read more

The food was delicious and the staff was very friendly and courteous. I had the coffee crusted pork tenderloin and it was very moist and tender. The Foie Mousse was incredible as well. I don't prefer Foie Gras but this Mousse had a different texture and flavor that was much better. read more

absolutely fantastic. make reservations well in advance. The roselily burger is sensational.

My cohort and I were visiting from LA and Chicago, respectively, and had dinner at the new location south of the tracks. We've dined at some of the finest, most interesting restaurants in the country, and this place totally satisfied our need for a thoughtful, delicious dining experience. We had their tasting menu (both vegetarian and "regular"), without wine pairings. I believe we liked every dish, each offering varying levels of complexity. The dishes were small enough for a 7 course meal but big enough that I was definitely full. We ordered a bottle of wine from their extensive wine list (no liquor, just beer and wine). We wanted to try their Chilean orange wine but they sold out! Next time. All in all, a fantastic gem in SB. A great addition to the city. Hope it is here to stay. read more

There are places which try to be fancy just to be fancy and expensive...then there are gourmet restaurants which serve as a canvas for local chefs and servers to shine in a way which compliments the city they call home. Roselily in South Bend, IN does just that. A dinner there is an evening well spent, and based on the experience I had with my family tonight, I'll absolutely recommend this place to anyone who knows food and finds themselves in South Bend. The atmosphere of Roselily is clean and professional but not presumptuous. The tables are bare, chairs repurposed, and overall ambiance understated. But that is good. Because at Roselily the food and wine and service speak volumes where things like white tablecloths and stemware would otherwise whisper. They serve a mean brunch, I'm told, and it makes sense for the room. But the dinner options here are no joke, and it seems to me that dinner is where this place shines. There is an entire plant based menu, and it boasts everything from small plates to an eight course tasting menu, just like the regular menu which changes with the season. Their wine list, while not extensive, has enough to please anyone, and their bar is armed to the teeth with great local beers as well. Instead of opting for the tasting menu, I ordered the duck breast which arrived perfectly cooked and resting on a sweet potato purée with greens and hazelnuts. My wife got the best plate at the table, a vegetarian dish of sautéed root vegetables served with brown butter, sage, ricotta, and Parmesan cheese. Believe it or not based on the zip code, the oysters were amazing, and the liver pate was something I'll order again every time I see it on the menu. While espresso would have been nice with the incredible apple cheesecake dessert we shared, the meal opened and closed with such grace, I can ask for nothing more. The servers danced around the chaos of my table as I enjoyed my meal with a tired one-year-old and my parents who are not spring chicken...the service was fluid, inclusive, and excellent. In a post-Covid dining climate, Roselily is a welcome breath of fresh air, and I hope the team there continues to push the boundaries of food in South Bend. Eat here. You'll be glad you did. read more

We haven't done dinner, which we are very much looking forward to, but breakfast here has its ups and downs... the coffee is just ok, though the sausage gravy and biscuits are just wonderful. The service is friendly but not overly attentive. The Elder Bread is delicious and anything involving it (as well as the homemade berry sauce/jam) is WORTH ORDERING. My biggest beef thusfar is the really poor preparation on eggs, a breakfast staple. They are cooked beyond recognition in any preparation including scrambled - a sad state for most brekkie meals! Overall, 8.1/10 for bfast/brunch here. If you avoid egg dishes and coffee, you'll probably be quite satisfied! read more

This place is phenomenal! I called to make a reservation for my parents for their anniversary and they had the absolute best experience. The service was absolutely incredible. Everyone was welcoming and kind. They did the 8-course meal and the chef absolutely crushed it and kept their dietary restrictions in mind. The restaurant itself is super cute and interesting and they loved it. Cannot say enough good things! If you're in the area it is definitely worth a stop. Thank you to all the staff that made my parents feel special and created such a wonderful experience for their anniversary! read more

Ordered takeout tonight. Terrible experience. $120 with gratuity. Steak? Ordered medium rare. Take a look at the photo. It is not even close. Chowder? Server in a cardboard foldable takeout box. Lined with foil to keep all the soup in. Mussels? Served in a cardboard foldable takeout box. Lined with a sheet of foil to keep all the broth in. All the food leaked in the car and bags on the way home, a five minute drive. Everything tastes like it absorbed a hint of processed foldable cardboard containers. This is a restaurant with a mobile order carry out processing system that serves liquids in cardboard containers and can't cook a steak. Never again. read more

Had the tasting menu and while I was originally nervous since they require it to be a blind tasting, it was fantastic. The flavors were great, beautifully plated, and it was nicely balanced. The staff were attentive and my husband's meal accommodated dietary allergies. The only complaints are 1) an air vent right under the chair that was almost uncomfortably chilly and 2) no substitution provided for elements that had to be left off a dish for allergy, the components were simply omitted. Overall excellent though. One of the best restaurants in Michiana. read more
