    As always, Rosie’s doesn’t disappoint. The lobster bisque is a constant for my husband and I just love their pork chop - always moist, tasty and cooked perfectly. Would love to see more veal specials!

    Rosie's is a rare find for excellent cuisine in an unexpected suburban environment. We drove about 30 minutes to get there from Lavallette to celebrate a birthday and were pleasantly surprised by the quality of dishes - gnocchi, wasabi crusted sea bass and halibut - all delicious. Don't be put off by the pictures of the interior which were mostly taken when the restaurant is empty and lit by daylight, making it look rather stark. The ambiance is much better in the evening with full tables and warmer light.

    The food was excellent and our server, Jordan, was very attentive. We had the burrata and lobster mac starters which were amazing. Next we had the sushi grade tuna and the short rib dinners which were excellent. The portions are generous and we had plenty to bring home. It’s a delightful place that was out of the way for us but the food will keep us coming back!
