    The food and service is here is top notch. The prices are affordable and the food you get is of great quality. The Sachetti was exceptional and very cheesy. The shrimp and broccoli were pretty darn good and the salads as the side with ranch were a treat too. The meatballs were small but the taste was big!

    What a find in the middle of Deerfield! Felt like an old school Italian restaurant on the east coast. Great staff, very welcoming with a real pride in the place (heard one say she has been there for 20+ years!). Home made pastas, authentic flavors and large portions. We will be back!

    Side of pasta.

    Super sad. I order delivery from here about twice a month. Sometimes more. Always get chicken parm and at times a half side of pasta. Chicken parm wasn't at all what it used to be. I asked for a little extra sauce as I always do and they always give it in the meal. Tonight they barely sauced the pasta and gave a little on the side if almost to make up for the lack of sauce on the dish. Every time I would get a half order of pasta it was in a big square take out dish. Now they put less in a small rectangular container. I won't order again which makes me sad. I loved ordering from them but after my order tonight never again. Most disappointed in the 1/2 order of pasta. For 9 dollars I'm sure this cost 2.

My family has dined here twice now and enjoyed both meals thoroughly. A full bar is stocked, and I've enjoyed a strong lemon drop martini here, as well as a glass of Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc. Dining area has about 18 tables, so it feels very intimate and cozy. The menu is posted on a large whiteboard and can change frequently. Favorites we've tried are the ravioli (filled with spinach, mushroom, whatever is offered) and chicken picatta. We don't leave with any leftovers. Entrees can range from $25-60 at moderate portion sizes, so it is a spendy meal but worth every penny. Warm bread and butter are served before dinner and the fried calamari is a crispy appetizer that hits the spot. To touch on post dinner... save room because that butter cake is one of our favorite desserts anywhere!! It is crispy on the outside and moist on the inside, served with gelato on top/side, whipped cream, and caramel and toasted pecans on our latest visit. Because there is no dessert menu (just what the waitstaff verbally tells you), here's what I can recall from it on our last visit last month: carrot cake, tiramisu, gelato, Oreo cake, banana chocolate chip cake, butter cake. Skip the Oreo cake. It tastes just like chocolate cake (a tasty one with a lovely crumb, just not reminiscent of Oreo at all) with a scoop of chocolate gelato on the side. Can't wait to return!

That alone should tell you how special it is. The Food: No matter what you order, it's consistently excellent. The artichokes are addictive--I could eat them nonstop. The branzino is perfection, cooked to a level that makes you forget every other fish you've ever had. The Atmosphere: Small, cozy, and charming. They've done a remarkable job maximizing the space without losing that intimate feel. It's the kind of place that feels like a secret you're lucky to know about. The Downside: They don't take reservations, which means the wait can be frustrating. Timing your visit is a bit of a gamble, but honestly, the food makes it worth it. The Service: Exactly what you'd expect from a team that's been doing this for decades--steady, reliable, no frills. The real highlight is the owner, who personally greets every table to make sure you're enjoying yourself. That kind of hospitality is rare and unforgettable. Final Verdict: Even if Italian food isn't your thing, this place will win you over. It's authentic, welcoming, and downright delicious. A true neighborhood treasure.

Louis, the manager, helped make the dinner possible by working with our friends and me so I could collect the gift card enabling me to place the dinner order. I pre-ordered the dinner and it was ready on time, packaged beautifully. Nothing spilled, nothing leaked, not even the olive oil or salad dressing - AMAZING! Despite being packaged the presentation was lovely, especially the chopped salad which was colorful and fresh looking. We ordered the full tray. We also ordered a full tray of spaghetti, meatballs on the side, 1/2 tray of eggplant Parmesan, 1/2 tray of Chicken Vesuvious, 1/2 tray of crispy potatoes, and 1/2 tray of steamed broccoli. Bread loaves, olive oil, Parmesan cheese, and salad dressing came with the meal. Everything was delicious. The spaghetti and eggplant Parmesan were the best I've ever had. The fries and broccoli were fresh and tasty. I don't eat chicken but those who did said it was also delicious. We had anywhere from 8 to 14 people for dinner over the course of 3 days. This order covered all 3 days. The amount of food we ordered was the perfect amount. I would order from Rosebud again and again, no complaints, no hassles, just a great meal of comfort food.

Heads up: we didn't make a reservation, and they definitely prioritize people who do. We ended up waiting about 45 minutes for a table. It's a busy Tuesday spot, and they seemed a little short‑staffed for how packed it was, but everyone was doing their best and staying friendly. And honestly, once the food came out, the wait didn't matter anymore. Because let me tell you -- the Maxed Out Mac 'N' Cheese pizza with the triple‑stuffed asiago cheese crust was the highlight of my entire day. It's like an Alfredo pasta and a pizza had a ridiculous, cheesy baby, and I mean that in the best possible way. The BBQ sauce and jalapeños on top were incredible. If anything, I wish they'd gone even heavier with both. We also tried a bunch of other pizzas as a group: - Margherita - just okay - Tuscan Vegetarian - surprisingly good - Meat Lovers - classic and solid - Moretti's BBQ - smoky and sweet - House Favorite (thin crust) - super crispy and tasty Everything came out hot, fresh, and loaded with toppings. If you're thinking about going on a Tuesday, either make a reservation or be ready to hang out for a bit. But the food absolutely delivers, and that mac 'n' cheese pizza alone is worth the trip.

I found a parking spot in the small lot and the bread was good (when they actually brought it to is after asking four times). And mind you, they were not busy at all. There were a lot of empty tables. Everything else was terrible: service was non-existent, food was flavorless, bussers kept taking our appetizer/bread plates away, and the noise level at the bar was loud. We could not hear people talking at our own table. They put two tables together and covered the difference in heights with table clothes, so naturally our glasses fell over and spilled water all over me. Their solution was not to remove the soaking wet table clothes, they brought another one to put on top of the wet ones. Not a good solution. The waiter never checked on us after we got our entrees. My wife's pasta dish was just a bowl of mushy noodles in a bland sauce. My chicken lemone was flavorless and drowning in an equally flavorless sauce. Instead of the mashed cauliflower, I ordered the Vesuvio potatoes that turned out to be four small potatoes that were overcooked and mushy sitting on a bed of peas. No olive oil or oregano. Just flavorless mushy potatoes. How a chef lets this food leave the kitchen is beyond me. The hostess was at the bar constantly chatting up the other people sitting there which was directly behind our table and they were obnoxiously loud. We're done coming here.
