Rosie's Fine Foods

This place is a favorite of our family in Toledo. They have several locations and we have been to many of them. The pizza is quite different from any other that you will find. Slightly thicker crust, rectangular pieces, light on the cheese, good fresh tasting sauce. A nice change of pace from classic greasy options. Mama's bread is a must! more

The place was always packed and the food delicious. The newly redesigned place is lovely, but the service is horrible and the food is grossly over-priced. I recently had a $12 salad that had only TWO (2) shrimp on it... for $12. ??? It was great, but it is way too expensive. I don't mind paying for quality, but give me some substance to go with it. Pizza is still good there though. more

Pretty good for the area. I got the meatball and italian sausage spaghetti. The meats are made by restaurant and pretty tasty. Portion was big and priced well. The salad looked like it had been sitting out for a while pre-made. My wife got fish which was prepared and seasoned well. more

My boss comes from England a few times a year and each time he wants to visit Rosie's. Another friend won't dine anywhere else.The staff is great. I have had mediocre service only once. All other times were exceptional. The staff knows you by name. The bar area is very friendly and homey, yet elegant -- with an extensive wine list. And the dining area is splendid. During the summer there is outdoor dining. Rosie's is a bit pricey, but worth it if you have a special occasion. My only complaint is that they are only open until 10 p.m. more

I came to Rosie's recently for a friends' birthday party. I had never been before and thought the atmosphere was really cool. Very nice bar area, we were served our drinks in a timely manner. Was a little taken aback by the prices, but thought for real Italian food it would be worth it. The appetizers were great! Had the bruschetta and crab cakes, absolutely wonderful more

This Rosie's was closed down and renovated. It is now a nice restaurant, not a pizza place. the service is friendly. There is a fair amount of vegetarian options on the menu. Before your meal they bring you Zingermans bread, with dipping oil and balsamic vinegar glaze, yummy. If you go to this Rosie's get the manicotti, it is great, with both tomato sauce and an alfredo sauce. Rosie's manicotti is heaven on a plate. more

They have amazing food. The service is getting better but you cannot beat their chicken parmesean...amazing. Their homemade gelato is great too! more

This place is a hidden gem, and my new Toledo-area favorite. Reasonably priced, expansive menu options, huge portions, friendly and accommodating staff. And, most importantly, everything was delicious from the first bite to the last. The bread is crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle, the oil mix was so delicious I was wondering if they sold it by the bottle (forgot to ask), the pistaschio-crusted chicken was to die for. (And not that it's hard to make, but my Caeser salad was great too). I can't wait to eat the leftovers for dinner tomorrow. My mother said the tomato basil soup was the best she'd ever had, and she's not quick to compliment. Next time I plan on trying the calamari, lobster bisque, and baby lamb chops.The service was wonderful too- we arrived at 5:30 and had to be at a concert 20 minutes away by 7. We were seated right away, and they got us out of there with time to spare, without us ever feeling rushed. My glass was never empty, and the waiter stopped by several times to make sure we had everything we needed.The ambience was pretty nice too. We came in jeans, but I wouldn't feel too out of place in a skirt and heels if I were coming after work. They had pretty Christmas trees in the foyer, and it was so cozy and inviting after the cold outside. Nice wood booths, a fireplace, quiet and un-crowded dining areas. I would take my boyfriend here for a romantic date, but it's casual enough to just come for a family dinner or meet a friend for lunch. Seriously, a much better value, equal-if-not-superior food quality, and not as stuffy as Mancy's Italian. I can't wait to come back! more

The pizza, Stromboli, and pistacio crusted chicken are top notch. My personal favorite is the grouper sandwich though. It comes on their hot mama bread, and it's fabulous.We mostly get carryout, but the times we've eaten in the restaurant, the staff has been very courteous and service good. more
