    The meal and service is why Rossini's has survived for decades...The meal was delicious (one of the best veal chops I had in a long time)...The drinks were generous...And the service staff left us alone and yet were quietly attentive and that lead to a relaxing and enjoyable experience.

    What a wonderful time we had celebrating my sister's 80th at this lovely Murray Hill standout! From the minute we walked in the door, we were impressed with their top-notch service, food excellence and warm ambiance. It was so good, we went back 2 nights in a row! On Saturday night, we were serenaded by 2 opera singers and on Sunday night we were treated to the very talented jazz pianist, Jeff Dawson, who honored all of our requests. Bravissimo, Rossini's and thank you!

    I've been coming to Rossini for 20+ years, the last time a few years ago. The food quality has taken a step back which now calls value into question. $20 for a small side of pasta with an entree that once was included made an OK chicken dish over $50. Wine list is also a bit stale.

    Met up with old friends and Rossini’s was the perfect place for it. We were able to hear each other! The food was delicious, as usual and the service was top notch.
