    Fun staff and excellent food. The portion sizes are huge so pls to take home leftovers. Everyone in our group was very pleased with their food. And the service was excellent.

    Flounder Grouper Piccata

    Everything was absolutely amazing! From the food to the service. I have been craving a bone in veal chop for a long while and boy did Rocco knock it out of the park! My family and I will definitely be going back. Don't forget to ask about his different lemon cellos. We had the pistachio one and had to buy the bottle.

    Incredible is the only word that is appropriate for the food and service at this wonderful restaurant. Our server, Sarah did an amazing job and despite a very busy night and lots of customers, was always cheerful and friendly. We had a little bit of everything, branzino, eggplant parm, and Stromboli. We eat Italian a lot, and good Italian food is sometimes hard to find. This is THE place.

    I was a little shocked to see the price increases here, I know everyone is making adjustments for tariffs and inflation but sheesh. My up-charge for noodles went from $2 to $3... chicken dish increased from $22 to $27. This dish was great (3.5 stars) but I would have liked more noodles and more sauce, forgot to ask for extra sauce . preferred the grouper honestly though, it was phenomenal on our last visit . from 10/25 to 2/26 Grouper increased from $29 to $35... I'd like to enjoy eating out but all the increases make it less enjoyable honestly, wine was $20, now $23... beer was $6, now $7. Great flavors here, & amazing staff. Maybe we'll try lunch as a more affordable option. Easily $$$$ but a lovely low key vibes restaurant . Current online menu doesn't reflect restaurant prices ( no menu pics taken this visit) online reservation system down. Mixer broken today, no Stromboli or pizzas ...

    This restaurant is very unassuming and you would not think that you would have the caliber of food that they offer. The restaurant is in need of some updating but the service and food is excellent. We were all surprised. Chris provided great service and was very attentive throughout our meal. We had ordered the roasted red pepper and carpaccio for appetizers. I had the chicken francese which was big enough two share between two people. My dad has the veal francese which he said was the best he's ever had. My husband had the snapper which he loved. It's a loud casual place with great food. Worth the drive.

    Went for lunch with 9 people. Waitress was Sarah. She was a hoot. Everyone loved their food. Would come back again. Excellent service.

    This space looks tiny from the outside, but is pretty large on the inside. The adorable ambiance almost made me feel like dining at a friend's home. We came in on a Sunday after church for my sister's birthday, and it was quite busy, but that did not disrupt the server's ability to get an accurate order in a timely and friendly manner. I had the cheese tortellini and my husband ate a Philly steak sandwich. The food was yummy, and we finished our plates! I recommend checking this out on your next visit to this area.

    Charlotte County girlfriends had a lovely lunch today at Rossini By Chef Rocco. Not only were our servers helpful and friendly, they were very entertaining! They made sure that both tables got all of their food at the same time. Everyone enjoyed their dishes, about half of us, got the chicken piccata, but others enjoyed the tortellini, eggplant Parmesan sub, and the anti-pasta looked amazing. Cute little place with charm. Wednesday is "wind down Wednesday" and bottles of wine are $12.99. Will definitely be going back again. I may try the meatball sub next time.

    The escargot--no, really. $14

    Small and noisy place for huge portioned Italian food for soild price. The food was good, but it wasn't great--none of the dishes quite hit the right spot. The escargot was served in a way we've never seen before, rather than they egg-basket ceramic dish that we're used to, it was served in a shallow bowl with 2x the escargot and 50x the liquid/sauce than usual. The Cesar salad came out room temp, but was pretty tasty. Linguine and clams in a white sauce were fine per my husband, but nothing special. My carbonara had a good taste, and portion was enormous. The sauce wasn't split which can be tricky with a carbonara, but there was excess sauce. That came in handy though for reheating the next day. We'll likely be back to try some more dishes. We came at 8pm and waited for a fresh table for a bit since they just had a huge out-the-door line the hour before. They just reopened (location was formerly Rossini Trattoria Gastronimica that was "fancier" and closed in 2022--but that was also more expensive) The prices were great, especially for a new restaurant in this economy. Staff were EXCELLENT.
