    I came to Rossoblu with my husband to celebrate his 36th Birthday and just want to say what a WONDERFUL experience we had! The customer service was efficient, friendly, they had great communication and provided us with truly a memorable experience for the rest of our lives. Upon arrival, I let the hostess/Manager, TONYA know that it was my husband's birthday; she communicated this to our waiter, ERIC and he gave us a complimentary glass of rosé as well as a scoop of their vanilla bean gelato with what tasted like fig! I would give this place infinite stars if I could! Seriously, we were so impressed and the food was out of this world! We ordered the GRILLED PORK MEATBALLS and QUEEN MARGHERITA as a starter and the TORTELLONI, and OLIMPIA’S TAGLIATELLE as our mains! Thank you Rossoblu for the great service and incredible food! The Christmas Tree and cozy atmosphere added to the essence of it all as well! We will definitely be back! Mahalo!
