The owner of this restaurant also owns Cordelia. If you know you know. Amazing pairing of flavors in every dish. Let's be clear tho, you have to have a grown palate to appreciate the dishes and be willing to experiment. If you like seafood bags this isn't the place for you. If you like Fennel Ice Cream , or Dumplings topped with trout roe.....this is for you. 10/10 read more

Cozy vibes, warm service, and great food make this a must visit restaurant for any occasion. Date night, family dinner, or friends visiting from out of town - Midwest Nice at its finest. read more

Food here was really good. Did 8 dishes for 4 people and everyone was full. The food was creative and well balanced. Our server was very helpful and attentive. Ambiance was really good. "Communal seating" was not an issue at all. Only downside was there are no reservations and there was a wait, but it was well worth it. read more

ROSY has arrived and so have I (haha). My friend Kerem told me about Rosy as his friend works there as part of the kitchen staff. I heard such great things that I had to visit. From the owners of Cordelia restaurant comes ROSY! (I have yet to visit Cordelia) I finally visited Rosy and I can't wait to return. I arrived around 5:15pm on a Friday after work in late June 2026 (they open at 5pm). Described as old world ancestral food with a blend of European and American dishes, the food will leave you coming back for more. The food here is perfect for those with mature palates and those willing to try unique blends of flavours (for example, I tried caviar (Trout Roe actually) for the first time here at Rosy). FOOD -- Their menu changes often which means guests will find something that they like. Here's what my friend and I ordered to share: Camarones Verde ($21) which is shrimp - with basil, lardo, bechamel -- A light yet tasty dish with 3 pieces of jumbo shrimp on the plate. They should consider adding 4-6 pieces of shrimp on the plate instead of just 3. This was one of my favourite dishes of the evening. Potatoes ($10) - with Vichyssoise and Trout Roe (trout roe is an alternative to caviar) -- very good carb option, bursting with flavour, and the trout roe on top of the potatoes added a crunch to the potatoes Snap Peas ($16) - with pickled feta, pistachios, and mint / gluten free -- a simple vegetable option but good. A bit too much mint was placed on top. Cevapi ($21) which is beef and lamb - with AjoBlanco (white garlic soup) and Ajvar (red pepper spread) -- one of my favourite meals of the night due to the flavour (the red pepper spread is delicious). They should consider adding 4 pieces on the plate as there were only 2 pieces of meat on the plate. Intimate and small restaurant promoting shared tables and shared plates. Food is small so it is designed to be shared. What I love besides the food is the rotating menu (changing their menu often), excellent service, beautiful bathroom using hand towels instead of paper towels, and a clean and inviting space. I got to talk with the co-owner Andrew while I was eating and he seems nice. What could be improved is the amount of food on the plate. For example, for the Camarones Verde ($21), the shrimp dish, placing 4-6 pieces of shrimp on the plate makes more sense instead of an odd number of 3 especially when most people are sharing dishes here. My friend and I shared 4 dishes so for 2 people, an even number of pieces of food on the plate makes more sense than an odd number. Overall, I enjoyed my dinner experience. The light meal leaves you feeling satisfied but not full. Sure the food is relatively expensive but it's good quality and it tastes great. Arrive early to guarantee a seat as they have limited reserved tables. I'll certainly be back. **** GOAL of 250 reviews in 2026 - 150/250 total reviews in 2026 - 991 total Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 29 June 2026 read more

We haven't had a meal out that was this satisfying in quite some time. Rosy has only been open 4 months, but has already managed to make a splash with it's open flame-centered kitchen, thoughtful menu of small plates, locally sourced produce, and family style seating. Staff was attentive and knew the menu inside and out. Our friends, who are restaurant owners, brought us and we really were impressed. The menu changes regularly. Some of the items we shared included beets and cherries with tahini and escabeche; cevapi with ajo blanco and ajvar; potatoes with vichyssoise and trout roe; roasted arrowhead cabbage with labneh, kosho, and dukkah; celery and ricotta with chimichurri and preserved lemons; shortrib with demi, esme, and chives; snap peas with pickled feta, pistachio, and mint; and insalata verde with peas, tarragon, and cacciocavallo. The balance of flavors in the various dishes was perfect. Nothing was overpowering but some flavors were quite bold while others were subtle. This isn't a liquid nitrogen and foam restaurant. The ingredients and flavors were honest and never pretentious. We truly enjoyed our meal and topped it off with their house soft serve with vanilla bean, fig leaf, and raspberry. I didn't take enough photos as I was too busy enjoying the meal. We will be back soon. read more

Rosy is a unique experience in Cleveland that everyone must try. It is very communal, which we really appreciated as we love making new friends! A lot of the tables are set up in a way that allows you to sit next to people you normally wouldn't. Instead of people at their own little tables isolated, you might be seated at a long table next to somebody you don't know. I know this might freak some people out, but we thought it made everything more fun and lively. They had the whole front end of the restaurant opened up (garage door type things) and the smell of the smoke from the fire pit and the fresh air was magical. It is a small space and it's intimate. The menu rotates as they sell out of items. All of the dishes on the chalkboard were shared/small plate/tapas style. My party of 4 was able to try about eight different dishes. They were all lovely, but you definitely must get the bread plate with all the dips that come with it. The wine list was unique and inspiring, and I love seeing wines from various regions you normally don't, such as Slovenia, Croatia, and Austria. The cocktail menu was also fantastic, and I was shocked to see a legit Spanish Vermut! My husband and I discovered vermut on a trip to Barcelona and fell in love, and we make vermut cocktails on ice with an orange slice whenever we can find obtain the spirit. Rosy, you really MUST serve this with an orange slice, and maybe a speared olive!(Though I did request an orange slice on mine). I want to give a huge shout out to Bonita, our server, who was just absolutely fabulous! She was super helpful, explained the whole menu to us in detail, made suggestions, and was just super authentic and enthusiastic. She seemed like she loved working there. My husband was holding out for the chicken dish to run out so he could order the sausage dish that was planned to replace it, as Bonita described it to us. However, everybody was full towards the end of the meal when the sausage dish finally became available, so my husband was slightly disappointed, but hey, that happens. At the end of the meal Bonita came out with a birthday candelabra and a giant dish of soft serve ice cream flavored with sweet pea and mint and four spoons. It was such a lovely gesture and made my husband's birthday very special. BUT, to top it off, Bonita even sent us home with a little doggy bag with the sausage dish that my husband was lamenting over! Thank you Bonita for sneaking that in for us . My husband is eternally grateful, and you really did make the whole experience unforgettable. We will be telling people about Rosy for a long time! (I'm sorry o didn't take more pics!) read more

My friend and I had a late dinner here while visiting Cleveland. We loved the food, the staff and the vibe. We were told that the menu was constantly in flux, and what they're offering on a given day is posted on a board above the open-fire cooking area, adjacent to the bar. We went just as spring veg was coming available, so the ramp toast, charred asparagus and smoked peas were a must. All delicious! Cotechino sausage was perfectly cooked and bursting with porky flavor -- didn't even need the aioli with which it was served, although the sauce tasted nice on its own. Pickled walleye cheeks were tangy and tender. Only disappointment was the haluski. They were served room temp (just this side of cold), which I assume was intentional, but I feel it would have been better hot. Flavor was fine but a little bland. Dessert was a pea-and-mint flavored soft serve, a refreshing way to end the meal. Cannot emphasize enough how lovely all the staff were, from our server, to the managers and hosts, to the cooks who did yeoman work presenting certain dishes to customers at the bar. I'd go back just for the atmosphere alone. read more

The intimate setting of this brand new restaurant in Ohio City leans to sharing bread over a fire with friends and neighbors alike! The menu digs from European fanfare to offer elevated dishes such as the wagyu beef tongue, crunch salad, cabbage pie, baccala and polenta and more. My personal favorites were the cabbage pie (think stuffed cabbage with seasoned meat) and the beef tongue (tenderized and skewered to present as an approachable kabob) The service was excellent from the initial greeting to the knowledgeable wait staff (shoutout to Tom!) read more

So excited to add this restaurant to my favorite Cleveland spots. The food, service, and ambiance are hitting on all cylinders! We've literally gotten everything off the menu and absolutely loved every dish. It's truly a unique dining experience with the unique cuisine, the food is served shared style, and if you can sit by where they cook the food via open fire, you won't regret it. Overall Rosy has a delicious menu with a wonderful service team and vibey decor. Definitely try the soft serve at the end too! read more

If I could give it 10 stars I would. Incredible Mediterranean cuisine. Knowledge of cuisine by server was incredible.

This is a cool concept. Slightly communal. Very interesting menu. It changes frequently. When they are out, they are out. Food was good. Definitely try the chicken wings. Amazing! Dessert was interesting. Spring pea soft serve with white chocolate crumbles very earthy and veggie forward but sweet. Strange but you keep going back for more. read more

Rosy - Sweet pea soft serve with white chocolate crumbles - Modern European Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

Excellent. Our meal was a true experience. We selected the lamb & dips courses, & then opted to also added on an array of 4-5 additional dishes, & each one was wonderful. The staff was engaging (shoutout to the chef quoting Sopranos lines to me all night,) informative, and helped guide our dining experience. Quite impressed to see what Andrew & Chef Vinnie have accomplished for Round 2. The celery salad & pork neck dishes were out of this world. Will be back soon. read more

Incredible food, cozy & moden vibe. Do not miss the sausage or the soft serve!! Truly a special neighborhood spot.

This place is 11/10 amazing!! The food is excellent, service is top tier, and everything down to the smallest decor was so well thought out. Do yourself a favor and try to get a seat at the bar at the open kitchen to watch the wood burning grill in action. Cannot wait to go back!! read more

such an amazing experience with equally amazing food. everything was prepared to perfection. the wait staff was extremely friendly and patient and they made great recommendations. they even made accommodations for me as a vegan which was very generous. you can tell there was a lot of thought put into the details of the restaurant, with beautiful artwork and even a candlelight ambiance in the evenings. a great date night spot, would highly recommend! read more

All around amazing dining experience! Every employee is on-point! The vibe is so good in this place, can't wait to go back!, highly recommended for a unique/amazing night out! read more

This place thinks it has reinventing the wheel but it is overpriced and has the dumbest menu options I've ever experienced. The atmosphere is cool (until you sit down and medium sized shared tables with people not in your group) and the prices are high so the expectations are equally as high and they fell far short. One option (I didn't get this) is a shared meal priced at $55 or $45 per person depending if you get the lamb or eggplant. The comes with the bread platter and ice cream. You cannot get this option alone, everyone at your table has to eat the exact same thing if you choose this option and if you choose option B below you can't just order these main dishes. Option B is ordering from small plates priced $15-25. This part of the menu is posted on the wall and near impossible to read for those facing the wall, and the other half of the restaurant that isn't facing the wall has to turn around to read it. I can't emphasize enough how dumb this was. For an open fire concept, many of these dishes are heavy on a pickled flavor and generally just okay tasting at best. The pork neck was actually grilled but near flavorless on its own and drowned out by pickled fennel on the plate. The fish dishes are pickled, cold, and TINY. Cabbage pie and salad were pretty good and the beef tongue was actually awesome (still tiny). Ended up getting 5 of these, spent a total of 180 with a drink, a wine, 2 beers (they only carry one beer because they know what beer you like better than you do) and ice cream (very good ice cream) and walked out kinda hungry. read more

Great place. Ever was excellent and was offered high quality food. Service was good. Ambiance was good

There is nothing authentic about this restaurant. This is fake Balkan food. Young hip Americans pretending to imitate the tastes of their grandmothers. There are no original dishes and the food is not tasteful. The wine and drink list is limited and served in glassware found from a garage sale. Plates and serving dishes are outdated. The food has very limited taste. The grilled items taste more like charcoal than food. You will leave the restaurant smelling like charcoal. They don't even spell the names of wine regions correctly - tayerska instead of štajerska. I left with a headache and stopped at a fast food chain because I was still hungry. read more

Our trip to Rosy was an unexpected one. My boyfriend is typically very predictable about his ordering, usually bland and doesn't try anything new. The open kitchen style of Rosy allowed him to see the effort and thoughtfulness put into each dish. We ordered a few plates and decided to share them together, which turned out to be a great idea given the shareable options available. I saw his face light up when trying dishes I had known him to dislike. For instance, the mushroom dish, as well as the golden raisin garnish on the pork. I felt it was not only a meal, but an experience! The cooks were also there to answer any questions we had, and I might even attempt to incorporate their art into my own kitchen. There is something so comforting about a welcoming staff showing you world-class dining a a reasonable rate, just outside your hometown. Enter with an empty stomach, and leave with a full smile. read more
