What can I say... I'm a millennial who loves nostalgia. So when it came time to meet up with a dear friend back home, where else would we meet but Red Rose? We've both celebrated many a special occasion here in the 90s and this time was no different. I was extremely happy to see that absolutely nothing had changed. That kind of reliability is exactly what you want from your favorite restaurant back home. You basically want to leave it in a time capsule and walk back in after 30 years to find it right as you had left it. The place was bustling per usual. The server was fantastic. The wine was great. The house salad and house dressing were so good they made me want to scarf down vegetables. But the meatball grinder... THE MEATBALL GRINDER!!! (I now live in a place where we call them subs, but nothing compares to a good grinder.) It was culinary perfection: the bread was golden and crispy on the outside and soft and warm on the inside. The perfect balance of bread, sauce, cheese, and meatball. And the flavor of the meatball itself was perfectly seasoned and balanced. I'm already 100 miles away and I'm still thinking about it and will be for days... weeks... MONTHS! Until next time read more

The place was hopping at 5:30 on a Sunday evening. We were in town to see Chelsea Handler and I'm glad we got there early. They gave us a buzzer, told us it would be about 25 minutes, and we went into the bar to have a glass of wine and wait. I must say the chaos was beautifully controlled. Lots of room in the bar, and a spot to order drinks if you couldn't get a seat at the bar. Generous pour on the wine. And sure enough, about 25 minutes later our table was ready. Waitress was friendly, helpful, professional. Servings were more than ample. Fried calamari appetizer was delicious, crispy, not at all greasy. My daughter really enjoyed her chicken dish. I, however, was disappointed, and I blame myself. I should know better than to order eggplant at a restaurant. If I'm ordering eggplant rollatini, I'd like to taste the eggplant. I don't know why restaurants insist on slicing it so thin that you can't actually taste the eggplant, just the breading. It's not that it's an expensive ingredient, it's gotta be cheaper than the cheese....anyway, I'd go back but hopefully I have learned my lesson - if I want to taste eggplant, I'll cook it myself. read more

This was a place I have longingly admired and wanted to try since arriving in Amherst to go to college in 1994. Well, 32 years after arriving in Western Mass, I finally had my chance. Love the iconic feel. The place is clean and updated, but the walls hang on to the 60+ years of history. Love the menu. Has enough to please anyone, but not a page-turner. They know what they stand for. Love the service. Fantastic. Real. Authentic. Local. Ordered the world famous house salad, the zuppq di clams, and a small pizza (which is not small). Salad and clams - FANTASTIC. Worth the drive from Watertown CT. Pizza... fresh. Hot. Made with care...but as a NJ native who now lives on the outskirts of New Haven... definitely not my style. Too think. Too much cheese. Not their fault. It was executed well. Not my preference. So happy I tried it. The memory will linger and come out, I'm sure, when I wax poetic of living in the 413. read more

Just when you think you have good Italian in Florida, you go to the Northeastern US and realize how far off they are down south. This family owned restaurant in the shadows of the MGM Springfield was excellent in so many ways. First, great service... gotta love a welcoming staff and friendly wait-staff. They were prompt and explained things and were patient as we tried to decide what we wanted. Second was that salad! OMFG how can a salad be that good AF? It was fresh and cold and properly dressed and tossed and had enough olives that we weren't fighting over them! Take that Olive Garden! Third were the meatballs! I'm a fan of tender balls that aren't too dense and these were perfectly done. So moist and in a delicious sauce for dipping... Fourth was the bread! They brought out like 10 slices for 3 people. WTF people? So friggin generous with portions. And butter!!! Not that pretentious oil with herbs and vinegar! Churn baby Churn all over that delicious bread! Finally, that pizza... oh boy oh boy oh boy! So crispy and garlicky and delicious and crispy. We did the Margherita which wasn't the traditional style, but who cares. I'd go back in a heartbeat! Excellent Italian! Just check which day's they're open so you don't miss out! And if you're staying at the MGM, this may be closer to your room than a restaurant at the property. read more

We've been multiple times because it's such a staple and truly everything is good. Of course the pizza is their mainstay but I love their pasta dishes as well and think they're very well done. Salads and appetizers are always delicious as well. You will have to wait and fight your way in most of the time because it is just that popular of course, but they have buzzers and are always super well staffed. Overall very nostalgic feeling within and if you're lucky enough to be seated in the original main dining room be sure to take in the chandeliers and all the other decor read more

Red Rose was recommended as the best restaurant in town to go to from our hotel staff. The restaurant is big with lots of seating, including a separate room for bar seating. Great and friendly service. Had good conversations with our waitress as we were from out of town. Chicken Picatta. I get that one of the key flavors in this dish is lemon, but they really overdid it. Every bite was straight up lemon. Tried some of my friends pizza and it also was not that good. The best part of the meal was the salad. Tasted almost, if not just as good as olive gardens! read more

What can I say about this place? Just amazing. It's always been good that I've never been let down. I haven't gone there in a year. I've been busy. I haven't gone down to Springfield but when I do go, it's a great meal and what I liked about it when I see a lot of people in line and they're overbooked that shows me how good of a restaurant it is just staff there is very tentative. They pay attention to you even though they're running around trying to please everybody which they do a great job at the you know it's all right. It's a clean Restaurant very loud though I would recommend putting up some on the ceiling put some sound equipment. You can just put it on your ceilings and it will bring down the noise so when you're having a conversation, you can actually hear your person thank you so everything is great thank you. read more

Recently attended a Logistics Reunion luncheon w 12 other people. We get together twice yearly, always at the Red Rose. Communal salads, communal pizzas, communal pitchers or you can order off the menu. RR has been a fixture in downtown Springfield for decades. Consistently good food, always really good service, fair prices. One thing that kinda rankles me. They serve bread / rolls room temperature when they have so many pizza ovens. Why? It's the little things that keep them from rating a 5 (especially when most other comparable Italian restaurants put warm bread on the table). 4 stars read more

Food was great - best pizza around. Great service as always and the feel of Italy! I highly recommend it!

LOVED this place. Everything was delicious and the prices were so affordable. Got the largest pizza and a family salad. Two adults and three hungry teens and still took home half for lunch the next day. Our server, Jo, was the best. We'll never go to Springfield again without stopping in! read more

This review is for a takeout order for a large group. I called the evening before to place an order and they were very accommodating in terms of taking my order and payment the day before. I ordered a few pizzas and pasta dishes, plus the house salad. Upon arrival for pick up everything was ready to go, and they even helped me out to my car. The food was very tasty. The fettuccine Alfredo was the most popular dish among the two spaghetti's one with marinara and one with meat sauce. The pizza was pretty tasty, my favorite part was the crust. I think it would have been better if it was slightly cheesier. Overall, everybody was very pleased with the food, and I would definitely order from them again. read more

I'm from New York and visited my friend in the area and lunch was her choice and came to Red Rose. It was a Great choice. Famous with their pizza and it was completely different from my favorite NY thin crust pizza but medium thickness but great pizza. Their dough was tasty and baked right, sauce was just right taste and amount as well as the cheese. It came out slight charred which was actually perfect and therefore bottom was crispy. I order small but it was 15-16" size, means usually Large at most pizza places. I also had lunch menu pasta with shrimp, this was another hit. I need to try other menus that mean I may need to come weekly. I important things is that you better watch when you get check. I've gotten check from other table and didn't find the mistake until I got home. I paid mistakenly too much but the price was still cheaper than New York. Still watch out!!!!! read more

I loveeee red rose. I don't live too far from here so I order from here often and my kids love it! Keep doing great!

Start off with staff. Our server was great, don't remember her name. Came in with family for my 1st time. Started off risotto balls, they was good the marina sauce was sweet and very good. I got penne with chicken, broccoli, olive oil and garlic. Taste was good. I put this dish in my top 3 that I have had from other places. Garlic was sliced big or the bulb which I don't mind. Could have have less oil. The rest got pizza, I tried a slice and not bad. Tortellini in Alfredo sauce, they loved it. Not big portion but he loved it and took the rest of the sauce home and my cousin got a steak and cheese sandwich. When I come back to visit, will have to stop in and have that marina sauce read more

We went early (2:00 pm) as we know how busy this place is and how long a wait came be. Five of us were promptly seated with lots of tables open. Waitress was quick to get our drink orders and bring us bread, warm and fresh! We ordered pizza and the family salad. Always delicious. With 2 well behaved children, the ambiance is perfect. Our favorite pizza place. Next time I need to order a meal, which is also amazing! read more

Meh. We came from out of town and came here due to a recommendation. We parked in their lot easily and were seated right away on a Saturday afternoon. Our waitress was very personable. It is a large space but kind of outdated. It was clean and bright though so that's good. We had the garlic bread which I wouldn't recommend. It seemed like slices of cheese were just melted between 2 pieces of bread and sort of served like grilled cheese. We also tried the calamari which was fine but not stand out. Lastly we had the Hawaiian pizza which was a good size and I did like the square cuts as that's more my size of a piece of pizza. The best part was that it was my son's birthday so we purchased a slice of cake and 5 wait staff came and sang to him and put a candle in the cake. Our waitress previously asked his name and remembered it so they used his name in the song. What a nice, special touch! They got an extra star for that alone. read more

Red Rose likes things large: Large pizzas Large portions Large facility Large chandeliers The facility is a mix of high class and old school decor. I liked it! A wall of fancy mirrors, wood paneling, brick wall, murals of Italian feasts, etc... It's loud though as this place holds a lot of people and parties going on all around at regular tables. First off I ALWAYS appreciate a place where a salad is built into their meal price and bread! And let's talk about their prices- on par with other places but they give you the salad! The salad- their own Italian dressing and a good amount of parmesan cheese. It was delicious! The pizza- cut in squares (not a huge fan of this but it's their thing so I show respect.) A lot of dough but not too much. I actually enjoyed the pizza (it's not my favorite but I would definitely have it again. Great sauce to cheese ratio and plenty of pepperoni. We went with a medium and it fed 5 people ( 2 picked as they had an entree.) I had the chicken parm. Big portion, lots of cheese and sauce YES! Jo, our waitress, has worked there for 20 years and was super nice. We had questions and she took the time to chat with us about the decor and history. Jo knocked it out of the park with us! read more

Pizza! Heck yeah! But also... Ok, hold on, their salad. I know you wouldn't think it! But their salad with a slice of that homemade bread is fire, just don't get too carried away otherwise you won't have room for pizza. Is there such a thing as too much cheese? I'll let you decide. We ordered extra cheese on our "medium" pie and it was Oooozing! (see pics for reference) Also, let's talk about sizes for a second. When you order a medium here, understand that it's going to come with 16 slices (I think) and they're not like circular, its square cut. Four of us ate and we still had like half the pizza leftover. Great crust, good taste, this is a great pie for sure. It's the tomato sauce that is just perfect. We also ordered the shrimp app and it was great. All of us were so full by the time we were done that our previous aspirations of ordering dessert were knocked out of the options arena. Beautiful old building that has been there since 1963. The dining room is massive with huge crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceilings and hand painted murals of the old world on the walls. The original owners have since passed but we found out that the children who are a brother and sister team are now running the show, and what a great job they're doing of it. Keep it going, can't wait to visit again. read more

I come here every time I go to six flags or come in the area because this restaurant is so good it's really big so there's a lot of seating and it's still always packed that's how good it is you definitely will be waiting a little bit to get a seat. They do not take reservations. There is a parking lot in the back but that also fills up and they'll send you across the street and that parking is only free until a certain time. Otherwise it's on street parking or you can park at the casino and walk on over. The pizza is really good I like the sauce and the toppings the marinara sauce for the garlic bread is thicker and different than the sauce and the pizza The garlic bread is really good with and without cheese I personally prefer it without the cheese but it was just also good with it it basically just comes right off though. read more

You can never miss at Red Rose. We'd had pizza at lunch so opted for pasta dishes at dinner. Shrimp Scampi, Spaghetti and meatballs and fetuccine with ham and peas were the 3 entrees we ordered. All fabulous. The place was rocking as it almost always is, but they still offered great food and prompt service. Nothing flusters these guys. I live in Arizona now and there is nothing here to compare to Red Rose. read more

Excellent food and service. We've been there many times and it never disappoints. Beautiful, clean establishment. Best house salad ever!

Came here alone on early afternoon on a Saturday. The server was super nice, the service was quick and I was in and out of there in 40 minutes. I got a house salad and a personal pepperoni pizza. It was super filling, I had enough for leftovers. The pizza was perfectly crisp and thin, and just the right amount of cheesy. I will be returning during my next layover in Springfield! One of the best pizzas I've ever had. Only downside is it was quite pricy. For a personal pizza and a side house salad, it was $50 after tip. read more

My boyfriend and I dined here on Friday September 27th, around 7 or 8 PM. We were staying at the MGM hotel right next door so it was super convenient to come out and eat. I looked up this place online prior to coming and it had glowing reviews - seemed like an established business in the area for a while. Lots of options, can't go wrong with Italian American food. When we arrived the place was bustling, we were seated promptly and served bread and butter. The bread was moist and delicious. We know this place specializess in pizza but opted for 2 pasta dishes, the tortellini alfredo and marsala chicken and ziti. The food took a while to arrive, the restaurant seemed so busy. Unfortunately maybe we should have stuck with pizza as the pastas very disappointing. My alfredo sauce was pretty much just cream, it did not taste cheesy. The tortelini was slightly over cooked, it seemed like just the frozen kind. The marsala chicken was a joke - it frozen breaded chicken nuggets covered in a watery sauce with a hint of wine flavor. The dish looked extremely odd. We were expecting a chicken breast, or maybe sliced up chicken, but the chunks we got were off putting. These dishes really did not look homemade, and for the price, it was not worth it. They did come with house salads which were very tasty, but the pastas were almost inedible. Once we were ready to pay and leave, we did tell our server that we did not like the meal but she did not offer to give us any kind of credit or ask what was wrong. They seemed too busy to care. I really wanted to like this place but felt like I wasted my money and landed in a tourist trap of sorts. The old school vibe, location and menu options are very appealing - perhaps we just picked the wrong plates as many other families sitting next to us seemed to enjoying their meals. read more
