Rossoblu celebrates chef Steve Samson’s two home cities, Los Angeles and Bologna, Italy. The menu features house made salumi, soulful pastas, market produce, and wood grilled fish and meats.

Located in downtown’s City Market South, the site of Los Angeles’s original produce market, Rossoblu’s vaulted dining room and open kitchen create a festive dining environment. The restaurant’s private outdoor piazza allows al fresco diners to feel far removed from the nearby city bustle. An intimate basement wine cellar can be reserved for private parties.

Six of us shared about 10 dishes, all prepared wonderfully. Pastas perfectly al dente exactly right -- why can't other Italian restaurants get it, and just enough not too much sauce like in Roma, Napoli, etc. Grilled fish and mammals all rustic and great.

Service was exceptional. I just wish the food matched the level of service. Some dishes were better than others but not amazing as I had heard. Salami pizza was the best along with the fresh bread.

After eating at Roasoblu a few dozen times since it opened it doors I’d say simply put, Rossoblu is one of the best all around dining establishments in LA. The food and service are top notch, the kitchen and bar provide creative menu options, and the management team truly cares about its employees and it’s customers… if you haven’t tried it you need to!

Paste was really poor. All 3 paste we try hard no favor, no bounce, and was cold. The service was very poor and multiple servers came too often asking us the same question. Felt very disorganized.

NOT the place for a relaxing / leisurely dinner. We felt extremely rushed. We were looking forward to a leisurely Sat nite dinner - but from the time we were seated to the check coming was 45 minutes. The food came out far too quickly - various servers were on hand and whisked away the plates very quickly. All of the tables around us were similarly rushed. The food was good but nothing spectacular. And expensive - not a good value for money.

We were first time customers and really enjoyed the food, especially since they provided gluten-free menu. There were several LOUD BANGS while we were dining which was frightening not knowing what it was. Also the homeless encampment on both sides on the San Vicente street did not bring a sense of safety and the encampment was extremely dirty. I know it’s a BIG problem for L.A. and hope these homelessness will be solved soon. Our server was extremely efficient, checking up on us to ensure our requests were met, and was able to answer questions about the menu. Service was great.

We were celebrating a birthday and I'd asked instead of free dessert that a simple mocktail for the 19 year old would be appreciated. It didn't show up until the meal was nearly over. ;( Our server was very friendly, not super informed about the history of the building or anything, but she knew the menu well and made good recommendations. Unfortunately, I feel that the food was WAY overpriced. We ordered the $140 ribeye that came with beans and salad. We intended to share it amongst three adults. Thank goodness we ordered other things, a pasta dish (we ate the birthday girl's entire...also very tiny), fries, a bread starter...otherwise we would have been very hungry. And the to be honest the steak was not remarkable. The salad was a small pile of arugula, some shaved parm and an oil and vinegar dressing. There was a good deal of gristle and chewiness. The fries saved the table. It was the best thing and very shareable. The wine was wonderful. I don't think we would go back and that's unfortunate. Maybe we didn't make good choices. ;(
RossobluResponded on June 18, 2022Thank you for your review of Rossoblu. We appreciate your feedback and insights and make efforts to improve. I hope there is an opportunity to be of service to you in the future so we can make amends. Kindest regards, Hans

The outdoor seating is a patio under a high fixed roof that felt more like an expansive additional room. We were a party of 4 that shared several plates, and enjoyed each one -- Rossoblu Bread Basket, Marinated Tuscan Olives, specialty salad with veggies from Girl & Dug nursery, Olympia's Tagliatelli and Maltagliatti. That was all quite sumptuous, so we shared a fabulous gelato with pralined hazelnuts.
