I'm torn on this review. Went in with my husband for the first time. Wasn't sure if it was seat yourself or...? People working did t really acknowledge us. Once we found our seat, no one brought us menus...we ended up making friends with the couple next to us and looked at theirs. I told the server it was our first time there, and I'm used to a different response other than being met with silence. I asked if she recommended anything and it was as if she didn't want to interact. We ended up getting pho, steak skewers, rice tots, fried chicken sandwich. I ordered a mocktail which was great. Food was ok, would like to try something else next time. Hubs thought the cheese on the chicken sando was "weird". [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a pretty bar.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Roselle Bar & Lounge was such a charming surprise, tucked into one of those newer mixed-use commercial/residential developments that can sometimes feel a bit sterile, but this spot has genuine soul. Sunlight danced across playfully colored walls, instantly making the space feel welcoming and alive.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Innovative and classic cocktails are offered alongside beer and a modest wine selection. The mocktails looked wonderfully thirst-quenching, but my soul was calling for an orange wine. It served its purpose quite nicely. The menu centers on healthier bar food options, and the intention comes through beautifully. Everything tasted fresh, thoughtfully sourced, and lovingly prepared rather than simply assembled. The offerings lean playful, with subtle Asian influences that keep things interesting. Our group chose to lean in on the more indulgent side of the menu. The rice tots? Unexpected, whimsical, and absolutely worthy of sharing, crispy little conversation starters. We enjoyed this starter with a little bowl of seasoned mixed nuts. But let's discuss the pastrami sandwich. A glorious indulgence layered with melty cheese, kimchi slaw, and piled onto a locally baked brioche bun. Restraint was simply not invited to this meal. My dinner companions opted for the cheeseburger and were completely delighted. Classic in concept, but elevated in execution, right down to the burger sauce, which struck that elusive perfect balance of tangy, savory, and craveable. And the fries? Skinny, McDonald's-style (yes, that's a compliment), with exactly the right crunch and seasoning. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Roselle manages that lovely balancing act of feeling casual yet intentional, playful yet polished. A very happy little find in Chico, California.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Nice chill bar and lounge. My server Natasia was awesome very friendly and efficient however bartender needs to step up his game. drinks take too long. My food came before my cocktails waited a good 30 minutes for my drink maybe even longer and it wasn't crowded however food is delicious. Will definitely return. Wish they opened on Sundays :( read more

Probably my favorite spot in Chico. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Some of the best food, drinks, and ambience in town.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Always something new and delicious to try. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I'll admit, I didn't realize this was a bar that doesn't allow children.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I stopped by for a holiday event after being invited by my boss and had to bring my daughter with me, assuming it would be okay. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There was no sign at the front door saying no kids and no one near the entrance to mention it when we walked in.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] When I went over to greet my coworkers, a server came up and the first -- and only -- thing she said was, "She can't be in here." There was no explanation, just that statement while looking at me like I should have known. Maybe I'm overthinking it, but the interaction came across as pretty rude. A quick, polite explanation would have gone a long way. Unfortunately, that experience left a pretty negative first impression. read more

The hostess was very rude and judgmental. I was stared at as soon as I walked in and immediately felt unwelcome. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Honestly, as soon as I sat down, I wanted to leave.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]My group was on the younger side compared to the crowd there, which felt strange given that the location and overall atmosphere seemed geared toward a younger crowd.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Being 21+ doesn't make this place exclusive or special; it's simply a bar with the same entry policy as many others.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] So I'm not sure why the attitude was so strong from the start. The only positive part of the experience was our waiter, a kind, blonde young man who was friendly and professional throughout our visit. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I would recommend The Banshee instead. The service and food there are much better. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Classy atmosphere, down to earth servers.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is unique for Chico and we absolutely love it![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The BEST BURGER in TOWN - they serve it at brunch and on the dinner menu. Don't forget to order a side of FRIES w/ the furikake - 100% worth it. You'll thank me later. Cocktail menu is a tad pricy for Chico, but you are getting custom crafted and uniquely made with delicious and fresh ingredients. 100% worth it. read more

Hostess was so rude and condescending. Server was nice, however she said there's a pre meal verification policy? So she took my friend's card. Felt like they thought we were going to steal or because we were young? I don't know. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Super weird and uninviting vibe.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Food was good though, but not worth feeling uncomfortable to eat there. read more

For me, this is one of the few places where everything is really freakin' good. First of all, best cocktails in Chico to me. Then they have the best burger. Plus - although the food menu is small - everything has been great and well executed every time we've visited. I even can't resist ordering the burger if I just had a full dinner next store. That's not normal for me read more

Delicious food and cocktails (including a much appreciated mocktail menu).. Service was a little confusing with the combination of the QR code and a live server showing up to take orders but he was very nice and helpful so it all worked out. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The layout could use a little work- we were a group of 8 sitting on a couch and some short stools eating off a coffee table and stashing our drinks/plates on the couch or wherever they would fit.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]However it looked like they have a nice outdoor area so I bet this will be remedied as soon as the weather improves enough to use it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall I would recommend this place and will go again. read more

To keep it short, I would not recommend Roselle's at all. The female manager is very rude and uninviting which is odd because when you first walk in she's the face. Wouldn't you want someone who is polite and welcoming? My friend group was on the younger side but we have never had any issues before especially downtown Chico bars. [[HIGHLIGHT]]From the moment we walked in the vibe was completely off, everybody broke their necks to look at us.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] And we were even accused of not truly being 21. We were dressed appropriate and all polite. Our server who was blonde and our age was outstanding (no notes). If I were to rate my experience it would be a 1/10. read more

This is gonna be the kick off and wrap up joint for those living off 20th. The space is really nice. Good cocktail and beer list. Everything was well crafted and decent price. I wasn't a fan of the online ordering, hoping it goes traditional. We had few of the apps, they were ok and expect they will refine. read more

The food is great, especially the smash burger and fries! The service is good and attentive. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance makes this place, it looks like the owners put their thoughts in every detail of the place![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Tries hard. Doesn't reach its aspirations. Pretentious Chico people, cocktails and food aren't very good or balanced but they're trying! I want winners not try-hards. Be what you are, not what other people want you to be. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance was uppity white liberal vibe, the kind that has never actually met an immigrant that they are out protesting for.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Now watch this review get squashed. read more

The food here is seriously out of this world. Every single dish I've ever tried has been amazing, like you take a bite and it just makes you happy. There are a lot of good places to eat at in Chico, but the menu at Roselle's is truly on another level. I don't know how they manage to elevate such simple sounding dishes, but they do, even the side salads are amazing !? I don't drink alcohol so I've only ever tried their mocktails and those are delicious. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Place is beautiful, clean, and modern.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Staff has always been super friendly. This place is just 10/10, and big plus it's in Meriam Park where there's loads of parking and you don't have to go downtown ! read more

I love this place! The decor is absolutely stunning. It was clearly designed with thought and intention, creating an inviting ambiance. I've had the pleasure of trying most of the small plates on the menu and they were all great, but the two dishes that really stand out to me are the Garden Ceviche and the Smash Burger My favorite cocktail is the Summer Crush-- it's the perfect blend of refreshment and flavor. I definitely recommend checking this place out if you're looking for an upscale option for small plates and cocktails! read more

Went to Roselle for dinner with my mom and had a great experience! Ordered their burgers and fries with furikake and fry sauce. I just moved back to Chico after 15 years in Portland and the Roselle burger reminds me of one of my fave Pdx burger spots. Had a delightfully refreshing drink, the Palm Reader. Ambiance, music and customer service all top notch. 5 stars all the way and looking forward to coming back. read more

John was an amazing bartender. He really made everything great. My favorite drink had been removed from the menu and he created a drink that matches exactly what I liked. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance was great.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

My boyfriend and I love trying different food places around town and last night we were in the mood for something new! We headed to Roselle per a recommendation from a friend, and it did not disappoint. The cocktails were fantastic, the food was delicious (and seasonal, big plus), the ambiance was great (they were playing great music, low lighting, beautiful glassware and bar), and the service was awesome! You have the ability to not only order from your phone, but open a tab on your phone through apple pay, and close the tab, without ever having to wait for a staff to do it for you, which is pretty awesome. If tech isn't your thing, they also have staff available to take your order. We will be going back to try the rest of the house cocktails! The cocktails we did try were amazing; complex, fresh, tasty, and beautiful! read more

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Roselle, and let me just say, it was an absolute delight! From the moment I stepped inside, I was captivated by the bold and thoughtful interior that exuded an inviting vibe. Let's start with the drinks - they were divine! Every sip was a burst of flavor and craftsmanship. The bartenders at Roselle truly know their craft, and the drinks I had were the best I've ever experienced. From refreshing cocktails to newly discovered craft beer, the bar surpassed all expectations. Now, onto the food. We had the pleasure of trying the cauliflower skewers, and they were a revelation. The perfectly grilled florets were accompanied by a delightful medley of flavors, leaving us craving more. Without a doubt, they were the best cauliflower skewers we've ever had. What pleasantly surprised me was Roselle's offering of vegan ceviche. The vegan ceviche was a symphony of fresh ingredients, cleverly combined to create a tantalizing dish. Kudos to the chef for creating such a masterpiece! Whether you're a cocktail connoisseur or a food enthusiast looking for a unique culinary adventure, Roselle is the place to be. Highly recommended! P.S. LOVE the QR code menus!! Makes it quick and efficient to order a drink or another dish. read more

I ordered some type of spicy drink.. I knew it was spicy and I like spicy food but this drink was hard to like. I rarely send food or drinks back but I could not drink this one so I let a server know the drink was too spicy for me. He replied that the drink said it was spicy in the menu and he could put in another drink on my tab. I had never had this happen in another restaurant so my friend and I left our spicy drinks paid for unfinished at the table... read more

Was really easy to order. Food was sooo good and so were the drinks. Everything came out at a good speed. We will be back.

This new cocktail lounge in Meriam park is wonderful. The staff is very friendly and efficient. Be aware that the idea is that you order and pay through the QR code on your table. If you need a paper menu they will bring you one and if you ask to have your order taken they will accommodate. I personally love the QR code order. I spent about $47 and the service fee was 82 cents, to me that's not a big deal. I ordered using the QR code and my drink came out in less than 5 minutes. My food was about 4-5 more minutes. Loved it. The Pittsburg sandwich I had was wonderful and even my picky husband liked it. The fries were also really good. Warm, crispy on the outside and seasoned with some type of Asian tasting seasoning. We will definitely be back. read more

Popped in here for a quick drink and had to get an appetizer because the menu looked that good! This is definitely more of a lounge than bar. Delicious drinks and food.

I have nothing but great things to say about this place. The food is really fantastic and special, the drinks even more so. They really are trying to do something special and unique in Chico. The service is friendly and fast and [[HIGHLIGHT]]it's even not really been crowded all the times I've been.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The vibe inside is cool and hip[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and [[HIGHLIGHT]]they even have good acoustics in the room so it's not terribly annoying when it's busy and a lot of people talking.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Whoever is in charge of this place really cares and it's nice to have such a great place to eat and drink at in Chico. read more

Roselle is such a great addition to the Meriam Park area and Chico in overall. There is really nowhere like it in town. The interior is gorgeous and refined, but also fun and colorful. All the design details have been well thought out. I love the versatility of the space. Small tables for dates, big booths for large parties, beautiful bar and a great patio that's dog friendly. I've been to birthday parties here, have a weekly coworker meet up here and have also had solo dinners at the bar, so it's great for all occasions. The food is delicious! I especially love the cheeseburger, the japchae noodles and the bavette skewers. Lots of veggie, gluten free and keto options too. My favorite cocktails are the Summer Crush and the Linen Park. Everything is so fresh and delicious! There is an option for QR code ordering, which I love because it's so fast, easy and super convenient if you are in a big party and don't want to have to split the check between 10 people. They last recently started doing paper menus and have servers to take your orders if tech isn't your thing. read more

I have Celiac Disease, and was excited to find a place with lots of gluten free options, that uses a dedicated fryer (so there's no cross contamination with gluten containing products). I had the Karaage chicken nugget bowl, and my friend (who can eat gluten) had the double cheeseburger. I saw that the nuggets, when ordered by themselves, come with a kimchi mayo. I asked for a side of it, and I'm so glad I did! As far as the bowl, the nuggets were pretty good, the kimchi mayo was amazing, the slaw was okay, the honey sriracha sauce was pretty good, and I did not like the rice at all. The rice has seaweed, furikake, and possibly tamari on it. It tastes exactly like a sushi roll with no fish. If I'd known that's how the rice is served, I'd definitely have asked for no seaweed. As far as the cheeseburger, my friend liked it but wasn't blown away by it. Regarding the ambience, as other reviews have said, it's very loud. We actually wanted to sit outside because of that, but unfortunately none of their outdoor space is in the shade. While I noticed another restaurant in the same plaza had misters and fans, Roselle didn't. The one thing I will say - we sat at the bar, and the bar seating is shockingly comfortable. The bartender who took our order was also very nice, which is always appreciated. All in all, we'll probably go back at some point, but I'll definitely order differently. I don't think the slaw and rice were really worth the additional price, so I'll probably order the nuggets and try their french fries as well. read more

When you're in the mood for the perfect craft cocktail, this is the place. The food is also great. One stop spot

Tragic is the word!! What a beautiful restaurant/lounge, food/service did not match My wife and I recently moved here from the Bay Area. We had high hopes bur fell short, maybe they had an off night. Maybe! We will revisit, understand it's a fairly new establishment but cmon. Slow service, bland food tough paying for mediocre!! Praying for the surrounding restaurants to be better. read more

My mother and I wanted to try this place as the burgers & pictures looked really cute but when we entered we were greeted rudely by the woman up front. We were sat and told we could only order the chicken nuggets and appetizers as they were out of everything else (it was 9pm and it said they closed at 10pm so idk if that normally happens idk) but the table behind us ordered burgers? The same woman walked past us a few times not asking if we were ready or anything. I was a bit confused but we waited a bit, as it did seem busy. As we waited to order, the lady who was rude to us sent another waitress to take our order and at this point we were extremely uncomfortable and I was upset by the service and the way we were treated, so I just told the waitress that was going to help us, we had to leave. We just had a late dinner somewhere else. I do not like to be rude to workers so I did not say anything directly as I was upset and confused at the experience we had. So I just decided to write a review. I hope others have a better experience than we did. read more
