The California pasta was amazing, I loved the taste of the artichoke hearts and other ingredients mixed well together. I had this dish on my 5th year wedding anniversary. Very tasty. My wife had the Filet Minon and she says it was "Perfect", the only thing that was a bit different, but still decent was the breaded-fried artichoke hearts appetizer we purchased, it was... good and different, but sadly it conflicted with the tastes of our two meals, other than that I had no complaints, our food was delivered by Cafe runner whic... read more

yummy – My friend and I were visiting the area from out of state, and had dinner here one night. I really enjoyed the food, it was very good, however the staff could learn to be a little more personable and up the energy. Great lasagna and salad!

Great friendly atmosphere, and wonderful service – The service was great and prompt. We had the Spinach Manicotti and Shrimp and Scallops, which were both really delicious. Recommend' the bolognese sauce

overhyped mediocre place – after reading the rave reviews, we visited Rosa's over the weekend and it was a disappointing experience. The service was horrible, we had to wait for our drinks for more than 20 minutes (and remind the waitress that we didn't get our drinks) and the entrees for over 45 minutes. My friend had ordered pizza and she was served cold pizza. The other items we ordered were mediocre at best. If you were looking for good italian food, do yourselves a favor and try other places. You'll be saving your time ... read more

absolutely wonderful! – wonderful and sumptuous entrees - have to agree with the other review about the rack of lamb. by far the best lamb I have had so far (and i order this at every restaurant i go to)!. service was wonderful - my date and i ended up staying after closing hours, but the servers did not hurry us out the door - unlike a lot of other places out there! overall - great food, great service - would not hesitate to visit again! well worth the 4 hour drive!

Best rack of lamb on Central Coast Bar None! – A great place to drop $100 (but I guess you could get by on $60?) on a special night out with the Mrs. If you know what 's good for you make reservations and get the rack of lamb...its unreal. We always bring our own wines and corkage is $12, nice staff elegant front dining room. Try the scallop appetizer and enjoy they bread...what's with the hard butter??

Rosa's is a winner – Rosa's is a great family owned restaurant with an old world Italian charm. Mama Rosa's smiling face is a pleasure to see when you walk through the doors and the food is wonderful. One thing is you can count on the food being consistently prepared. They have great nightly specials especially Wednesday nights Cioppino....yummy. The service is always friendly and professional. I suggest taking a seat on the heated patio and enjoy the fine wines and wonderful food underneath the stars.
