At Rosie Cannonball, we’re serving European comfort food in a lively atmosphere. The restaurant celebrates the origins of cooking through open, live fire and is centered around a wood-burning oven and grill.

The menu draws inspiration from individual ingredients: local vegetables, pastas and pizzas, simple seafood and locally-sourced meat cooked over live fire.

Master Sommelier June Rodil curated an expansive list of delicious wines with a strong Italian, Spanish and French focus from their favorite producers new and old, along with options from progressive New World producers.

The cocktail menu has strong Italian influences, mirroring the focus of the food.

    The food was impeccable. Delicious. Creative. Artisan. These folks are good at what they do! The service was also top-notch! We had atleast 5 different people interact with us. Our main server, the hostess, a couple of others that refilled drinks and brought food to the table. We never had to ask for anything because we were offered to before we had a chance. They anticipated our requests. One oddity was that we had asked for about 3 slices of pizza to be packaged up to take home. The server took the pizza with the intention to do it and we never saw it again. However, we were stuffed by the time we left and didn't even realize it until we were at the car. So we just left it. We reasoned it was probably gone anyway. We didn't want to give the server a hard time by going back inside to demand 3 leftover slices of pizza. They all did such a great job even with this mishap. No harm. No foul.

    This is our second visit & the first time we made reservations ahead. We were seated 15 mins after our reservation time, which seems to be a fairly common occurrence in the Montrose area. We had the special fixed-price ABBA valentines menu. Pleased that they offered this on 2/13 and 2/14, so that more customers could participate. Food quality was excellent, with the only “complaint” being that the combination of pizza and then an entree afterward was really too much food for one meal. We did get to-go containers for the leftovers, so it was not wasted. Overall a pleasant night out.

    Fabulous as always starting with the Lambrusco toast! The pepoeroni pizza was crispy, chewy and delicioso, the truffle lasagna was to die for and the blistered beans were a nice accompaniment to offset the pasta. Favorite restaurant always.

    Interesting menu. Had high hopes, but I am not looking to return anytime soon. Beet salad was surprisingly spicy… and bland at the same time. The beets themselves were completely flavorless, but there was a spicy element to the dressing that was unwelcome and didn’t make sense for the dish. The roasted carrots were OK, but way too charred. They should taste roasted, but not burnt. I wish there were more protein options. Friends enjoyed the bolognese and said the pasta was cooked perfectly. One person ordered the mushroom pappardelle but sent it back due to a pervasive spicy oil that was unexpected. She ordered the limone pasta as a replacement and enjoyed it. The mint gelato was refreshing.

    Great food. Excellent service. Reasonable prices. It was pretty loud inside because of the music but thankfully we were given a table outside.

    The food here is consistently good. It was a bit loud when we arrived and drinks took a bit longer, but our server was great. Loved the little gems which I always get. Mushroom pappardelle and octopus were delicious and we will be back!

    The service seemed understaffed - employees can’t control that - understandable. She did check in as much as she could, but it wasn’t much. The appetizer came out relatively quickly. However, dinner took entirely too long and we only ordered 2 bowls of pasta. As Italians, we understand Americans cook pasta past al dente, and we have to accept that if we choose to order pasta at a restaurant. But this was the most overcooked pasta we’ve ever been served - to the point the sauces seemed starchy and the seasonings became muted. Maybe it was an off night. But the waitress was incredibly nice and even offered free dessert, but we had to head out and declined. Disappointed because we have heard such good things and the restaurant itself was super cute.
