Apero Into Summer - An Al Fresco Cocktail Event
$28.00 per person
Prepaid
Jun 17, 2025 only
5:00 PM
Join us for an early evening of cocktails & conversation. “Apero into Summer” is a - one night only celebration featuring Sicilian wine producer Donnafugata, Rockport Brewery, & an interactive cheese wheel cracking exhibition from Ambrosi Cheese purveyor. What better way to prelude to summer than wine, cheese, & a little outdoor dining. For $28 per guest, you'll enjoy a glass of something nice, "white gold' labeled parmigiano reggiano sampling, & entrance fee for an antipasto giveaway prize as you bask in the comfort of our back patio. Let's soak up the summer, let's aperitivo!
Drink The Wine, Eat The Pasta
$36.00 per person
Multiple dates available
Let's be honest, the best conversations have been made over Pasta & Wine. Whether its shouting from the rooftops proclaiming true love, or the obligatory full mental breakdown over a work email. Pasta and a good (or bad) bottle has always been there. Its what defines us. It's what makes us who we are. Michelangelo didn't paint the Sistine Chapel on an empty stomach. He was inspired by the mouth-watering combination of cheesy, perfectly al dente, godly bowl of pasta & a dry, peppery glass of vino. Let's pay an homage to Italy by offering your next memorable experience with us. We will be offering a Cacio e Pepe & Wine Tasting for $35. You get to choose 3, 2oz. pours off our wine list accompanied by a dish a Cacio E Pepe.

Food was delightful and service was outstanding. The restaurant has a very warm feel. Space is compact. There was a large man seated with a large party behind me so the wait service bumped me a few times in effort to get through. They were very polite and apologized.

The staff was super friendly and attentive. But we were there an hour before our food arrived. We orders 2 apps and drinks. Those took about 25 minutes. Finished those and it was another 25 minutes before the main courses arrived. Food was tasty, as always.

The food at LaRosas is always sooooo good! Fresh, interesting, great sauces and seasonings. However, they do really pack you in. We sat at a high top with stools. Nowhere to put my purse and I had to sit on my jacket since the stools were backless and armless. I was so close to the people next to us that I could have easily joined their conversation. I understand that more tables mean more business, but maybe a little compromise?

Our service was great, the food was excellent huge portions. I thought the wine was a little on the pricey side. We sat in the bar area and it was a quiet night, but it was still a little loud so I can’t imagine what it’s like at full capacity. The outside dining has a very north look to it, however, we did not eat outside. Very charming. I would definitely go back! If you want a romantic setting, eat inside in the dining area would be my suggestion
