The restaurant has been totally transformed, sporting a dramatic two story high central dining area surrounded overhead on two sides buy a dining mezzanine overlooking the main dining area and on a third by a private dining room softened behind shaded glass. A dramatic bar of stainless steel set against a backdrop of exposed stone runs the length of the room and leads the eye to the real focus of the place: the imposing steel surround of the woodburning beehive oven. Rustic wood ceilings and exposed stone walls set against high energy glass and steel combine the old and new at Bar Rosso, setting the tone, reflecting the soul of the restaurant. Featuring glorious Italian cheeses and charcuterie, small plate specialties, mix and match bites off a large antipasto menu, wood oven thin crust pizza, homemade pasta and Italian inspired entrees, Bar Rosso is intended as a tour of the Italian culinary scene complemented by a full Italian wine list and cocktails inspired by the authenticity.

I recently celebrated my birthday at Bar Rosso, and it was a wonderful experience. The ambiance was cozy and inviting, making it perfect for a relaxing evening. The food was absolutely delicious. The staff were very attentive and friendly, going out of their way to ensure we had a great time. I highly recommend Bar Rosso for any special occasion or just a nice night out. I'll definitely be coming back!

Finding street parking was tough. FYI: The parking lot across from the restaurant only takes cash The restaurant had good ambience . Not too loud (till 10 PM then there was live band and music). Good Cocktails and drinks . Food was in good portions. We couldn't eat beyond the appetizers. Service was great. Recommend this place

Our lunch outside today was so nice! We had a friendly accommodating waitress and the food was very delicious. We shared the calamari, brussels, burrato, and the grilled squid from the regular menu for appetizers - yum. Would highly recommend the burger with all the fixings, we had a few bang-bang shrimp wrap fans, and the shrimp and avocado salad looked pretty amazing too. Sadly, no one had room left to try the desserts.

Our wine of choice was "locked up" and they didn't have the key, we were told just as finishing our appetizer. They should have told us this news with two glasses of "sorry" wine from the bar but instead we had to wait to choose another wine and then wait for that to arrive. Their "sorry" was the worst of key lime pie; tasted like refrigerator and the [ie itself was sort of cheesey tasting. My guest was okay with his cod but my Parpadelle al Funghli was weird, the pasted needed 30-60 seconds more in the pot and the sauce was disappointing in that the mushroom were just a dark brown mush and the sauce was weirdly sweet. We were bummed,

Restaurant Week menu was good, but not cheap if you made the mistake as I did ordering the “crispy “ gnocchi, which were anything but. The fish taco appetizer was the best!

Enjoyed outdoor dining, peach flavored cocktail, sunshine and sparking Saratoga, arancini were delicious, Branzino good but a bit dry, zucchini flowers a bit over fried and heavy, pistacchio gelato and espresso a fresh ending to a lovely experience. Enzo was our professional, helpful and attentive waiter.
