The interior is super cute and opened. I love the open kitchen concept. I think my favorite is watching the chefs cook with the built in brick oven!!! The whole staff was super nice and friendly. I was running 25 mins late for my brunch reservation and that wasn't a problem for them. I was seated right away. I ordered drinks first: oat milk latte, green juice, and fresh orange juice. Since we were about to go in all this delicious food, you need to order a green juice to balance it out (haha). We ordered so many things: Calabrian chili polenta, double cheeseburger, mrs. crispy, chicken and waffle, and war style crispy potatoes. Our favorites was the Calabrian chili polenta bread, Mrs. crispy and chicken and waffles. These three was the highlight of our brunch. It was packed with so much flavor. Mrs crispy and the polenta bread was like a pizza. The bottom was charred just enough, the yeasty bubbles on the dough was so good, the Calabrian chili melted and created the best sauce on the bread, and Mrs crispy's salty bacon with the ooey gooey running eggs? Oh my GOSH The burger was okay. It was very juicy and I wasn't a fan of the sauce. The war style potatoes, i asked for the sauce on the side which was great idea. The kewpie Mayo is always delish. The other sauce tasted like a Thai curry paste but it was suppose to be a peanut butter sauce? I didn't like that much but the potatoes were very crispy!!! I would love to come back for dinner and try their pasta dishes !!! read more

If you haven't tried the Calabrian chile polenta bread at Rolo's, drop everything and go now. This spicy, savory slice of heaven paired with the Stracciatella is a match made in culinary heaven--seriously, you'll thank me later! Now, let's talk about the burger. Yes, it took forever, but oh my WOW. Worth. Every. Second. Juicy, flavorful, and totally unforgettable. Pro tip: Reserve ahead or be the first in line when they open. If you're lucky, you'll snag one before they sell out. This place? A hell yes for me! A1 all the way. Get here ASAP. read more

Rolos is all the rage right now and honestly it deserves the hype. I've been a handful of times and tried almost all of their food and everything is always amazing. The Calabrian chili polenta bread is amazing, the burger is great although rich (I like to split this with someone and also share another dish) and the pork chop is a sleeper hit. 10/10 but definitely make reservations! read more

Solid. We got lucky to get in without a reservation really quick. You definitely want to share. read more

Rolo's - Sandwiches Near Me - Ridgewood, New York

This institution in Ridgewood, Queens does not disappoint on any level. Super friendly service and food from appetizer to small plates and ultimately Entree's are to to die for. Burger is out of this world but in my opinion, their pork T-Bone is the menu item that will leave you speechless. How can a piece of meat be that thick and yet so juicy and tender, it's like cutting into a stick of butter. Overall, this place is an absolute must visit if you have not done so. I just wish the traffic and parking situation was not so difficult or I would be back on a weekly basis. read more

Never been disappointed in the quality of their seafood! The service is great The prices are fair and always good quality. My family never buys seafood anywhere else. read more

This place felt very cozy probably due in part to the dim lights throughout the restaurant. We started with the Calabrian chilli polenta bread which was possibly the best thing I ate there. It was the perfect amount of chewy and charred. However, a single flatbread was $12. We then had the two sheet lasagna and the half chicken. Both were good, although I felt the lasagna could've used more filling to feel more satisfying. The half chicken was good as well but the lack of a side with the dish made it feel a bit incomplete to me. The peach tart was tasty. I am apprehensive about the steep prices, especially paired with their delicate portions. However, I was compelled by the flavors from the wood fired preparation and the very high quality of ingredients. read more

So this visit was not planned and my husband randomly chose this place as I've never heard of Rolo's. We arrived at 4pm and apparently they have a break from 3-5pm for the transition of brunch to dinner but seating for drinks at the bar is allowed. We said hey why not, its only an hour. We asked to be put on a wait list and were the first ones. Keep in mind, what I learned about Rolo's once 5pm hits itll be a mad house. Either you make a reservation or come 30ish mins early and get put on a waitlist otherwise all tables WILL be taken up once the dinner service starts. Alex was our wonder bartender, answered all questions we had and kindly made sure we were aware of all the things I stated above. We started off with the spicy pineapple marg. It was good but a spicy drink was never my thing and too much of it doesnt sit well with me. I opted for a mango margarita for my next drink and it was delicious. He definitely knew how to make a drink. For being put on a waitlist we got a really nice corner booth, I loved it and the vibes of the 2nd room where the kitchen was located. By 5:15 every single table was taken, I never seen such a thing and very impressed. Main reason why my husband chose this place was for the burgers, it's supposed to be one of the best...so here we are. I was told these burgers get sold out within the first hour or so. We started off with the sea salt and olive oil polenta bread accompanied by an order or prosciutto. The bread was smaller than I thought because then I would've ordered 2 but it was superrrrrrr soft and yummy, it went perfectly with the prosciutto but I wish the cut was saltier than it was, you just tasted more of the fat. Next. The main event. The burger everyone talks about. Cooked to perfection. Very juicy. A wonderful and delicious burger but not the best that I've tried as everyone says. It's super filling. We also ordered a side of potatoes. These were super crispy wedges. Very good! As for the sauce that came with it, It was not my favorite and I'm a sauce girl. I was excited to try dessert but I simply couldn't finish. Our waitress, im sorry I couldnt remember her name, super kind, always came around to refill our waters. Everyone that worked here all worked together and you can feel their great energy. I would love to come back and try their steaks, pastas, and their known for lasagna. Definitely recommend but remember go EARLY before dinner service opens or make a reservation. read more

I came here for Super Bowl Sunday, bc the other places were packed n no seats. I'm head we decided to come bc it's a Great neighborhood bar. Only drinks no there's no food. Nico is a great bartender Owner Bart is great friendly n courteous. Makes a great chili. There was a chili cook off contest. Had I known, I would have submitted my chili ! You might remember this as it used to be calked Side Car, they did have great brunch. But whatever, it's only drinks now. A as bd great neighborhood bar. They go fave happy hour drinks as I pass by everyday while walking in bc my dog. read more

Love the vibe here and we sat right by the open kitchen which was very entertaining but I noticed something that left me with an uneasy feeling. We got there at 12:15 for brunch on a Saturday and the waitress told us the burger was already sold out. I was dreaming of the burger all week and couldn't wait to get here to try it. After we ate which was 1hr+.....we got the check and I saw them making 3 burgers for a table that clearly came way later than us. Honestly, I would give 5 stars to this place....but that was very disappointing to see. read more

So we decided to try a new place, after a Yelp search. It's not far from Bushwick so off we go! It's a Tuesday night and the place is packed! All millennials really excited with a lot of energy. It's a really good looking crowd. No doubt we picked the right place! We have to wait 30 minutes, which is not something I'm generally up for....they do offer us a cocktail. My friend a gin martini me a ginger beer. In a flash a table is available and we're seated in the front area at a great table! I love the whole vibe, listening to the people around us. My bad! We order another drink with appetizers. Salad and chili flatbread. Which come and are great. Sofie is our waitress and for entrees I order the 1/2 chicken and my friend gets the branzino, filet. Both are just amazing. The chicken is covered in cabbage and shredded vegetables. The branzino delightfully no bones! It's 9:15 and the place is still hopping. We start talking to the folks in the next table. One guy is a professional photographer for fashion designers. The other guy a bond trader who knows guys from my old office on Liberty street. Small world!! Well we found a new go to place yay!!! read more

Drinks were the highlights here, mains were fantastic, desserts somewhat bland and disappointing. Though they have a huge crowd at opening, the area is not the best for milling about or parking. Service was excellent and the ambiance jovial enough. Some of the dishes were not as flavorful as expected, but the ones that stood out like the salad, and steak were exceptional. Overall the items are a hit and miss, service is spotty as it's very crowded but still very friendly. We won't return as it's far from us, but if we lived closer we would probably go here for drinks and the occasional app. read more

Visited on New Years Eve as a group of 4 for their dinner menu. The service and food was delightful. We tried quite a bit of the menu, many of which was a special offering for new years but I hope they consider making them a regular. We had a central seat, located not far from their in-house brick oven. I highly recommend you not skip the polenta bread. We tried all three that were available, my favorite was the Calabrian chili butter. pickled carrots, orange, coriander: bright and juicy; great paired with the next dish Foie gras mousse: such a generous portion. We ran out of grilled bread so we ordered more polenta bread. Topped with port wine jelly on top it was the perfect balance of flavors. Radicchio Cesar salad: our table really enjoyed this, bitter with creaminess paired really well. black truffle cheesy potato croquettes: delicious, compared to other dishes this wasn't a stand out for me. two sheet lasagna, poached lobster, spicy chorizo: as a non pork eater, I didn't want to miss out so I picked a nice meat free corner to try. It was really nice with the generous chunks of lobster. Considering the selections we made I could have done without this one. sweet potato cappelletti, brown butter, black truffle: I will forever remember this dish. It's a rich bite, but perfectly thoughtful. They were generous with the truffle topping as well. I'd previously heard of this one but it exceeded my expectations: dry-aged beef wellington, mushroom duxelle, pastry crust: prepared to perfection, at this point in the meal I was nearing my limit but I'm so glad I didn't give up before this dish came out. Made to order, so be prepared to wait a bit but that worked out well in our favor (; It was absolutely delicious and the preparation mirrored something out of a still life drawing. Truly a memorable dish. I hope they have it again, I will be back. To wrap up the evening, we opted for the champagne jello and baked Alaska. An interesting take on jello, with rose petals. This dessert was not for me. The baked Alaska however, was such a nostalgic diner throwback. With a twist in the "strawberry" layer of the Neapolitan ice cream within - fresh black berries. All together a wonderful take on the dessert. If for nothing else check out Rolo's for their ice creams and sorbets, they seek to impress. read more

Saw this video a few weeks ago and had to try this place. https://youtu.be/kNRhDeI1xg8. The food was delicious and different at the same time. What stood out to me was the freshness of the food and the quality of the ingredients. We had the wood fired, polenta bread, which was delightful. So much so that I have been dreaming about it. The burger was perfectly cooked and the pickled pepper was a departure from the norm. Try the affagato for dessert. It is a scoop of their homemade vanilla with espresso poured over the ice cream at the table. The expresso starts out bitter and robust and then you are smacked with delicate sweetness of the ice cream a few seconds later. The service overall was great. They came around and suggested dishes for us to try and even swept crumbs from the table. I loved the vibe of this neighborhood place. It wasn't loud and pretentious but comfortable and cool at the same time. Definitely will be heading back soon. read more

Rolo's deserves ALLLLL the hype it's getting. This was one of the best dinners I've had in a long time. We came with a group of 5 for a 6pm reservation. Pro tip: come early or their signature rib eye steak will sell out. We all got a round of drinks. I got the espresso martini and I swear it was the best one I ever had. Get it. No regrets. We shared a bunch of things: -Calabrian chili butter bread: tasty but a little overwhelming in terms of seasoning -Olive oil & salt bread: delicious. We all said we wanted 5 of these breads. Tasted like a cloud -grilled oyster mushrooms: the texture of the mushrooms was so good. So flavorful -potato croquettes: these came in orders of 3 so we got 2 orders. There was delicious parmaswan sprinkled all over the croquettes, they were piping HOT -two sheet lasagna: not your actual lasagna. It was pretty good, but not sure if I would order this again. Definitely unique -2 orders of dry-aged rib eye steak: 25 pounces each. Get this steak. You will NOT regret it. The charred pieces were absolutely delicious. We asked for medium rare and it was cooked perfectly. -crispy potatoes war style: we got the "war style" on the side. It was basically mayo and peanut butter that was spicy/gingery. Not a fan of the war style but the potatoes were crispy -grilled pea greens: our waiter recommended these. The greens were cooked perfectly. Loved the garlic. We also got two desserts: the house made ice cream and apple tart. The ice cream was wayyyyy too cinnamony. The apple tart was good but not warm. It was served with delicious whipped cream. I can't wait to come back to Rolo's! read more

Had a reservation for Monday night at 9:30 to celebrate anniversary. Came around 20 minutes early and they already had our table set and let us be seated early! Our waiter started us off with complimentary champagne to cheers with. All of the dishes tasted great, my highlights were the lasagna and the croquettes! Unfortunately the burger was sold out, but did not come as a surprise as I've seen many other reviews saying it would sell out an hour after opening. Loved the flower pour sour. The staff were great, quick and sweet. Loved having the view of the open kitchen. Great restaurant for a date night! read more

Rolo's has been on my list for a while and finally managed to check it out. They were surprisingly very busy on a Sunday night. The ambiance there is nice with the low lighting and the open kitchen area. WARNING: TOTAL SALT BOMB As for the food, overall the food was great though extremely overly salty. Unfortunately just felt horrible after eating there due to the excessive salt. Service was nice and friendly, though the kitchen messed up a lot of orders (probably cause they were super packed). Dishes tried: 1. Polenta bread with sesame and wild oregano: this was so good. Warm fluffy bread. Nuff said. 2. Leafy greens and herb salad: didn't order this but they screwed up and we got this dish. Fresh, very very acidic. Very salty. 3. Radicchio salad: good with the blood orange vinaigrette. Recommend this over the leafy green salad. But also overly salted. 4. Pork t-bone: good but nothing special. Skippable imo. 5. Arctic char: this was really good with the hazelnut butter and the red cabbage. Also pretty salty though but the flavors were great. 6. War potatoes: pretty good. Crispy oily potatoes. Defo sinful with all that mayo and the lemongrassy sambal sauce. Also salty. They sadly ran out of the burger and the steak by then so make sure to come earlier (like before 6:30). Overall, the vibe at Rolo's is great. They just really need a lighter hand on salt! If things were not overly salty, the food would have been 100x better. read more

This was my 2nd visit to Rolo's within 2 weeks as 2 friends coincidentally suggested going there since there has been a buzz around this spot recently. First visit was a on a weeknight. Absolutely loved the vibe of the whole place as soon as we walked in. The drinks were great and the food was good, not amazing. Our server was very adamant about not letting us order one of the apps we were hoping to try, which was unusual but ok. It was good enough to return again shortly after. Second time I went was a 6:45 Sunday evening reservation. The drinks once again were great and the food was better the second time around. Some of the dishes were exceptional. However the most memorable part of our dinner was the very very rushed and chaotic service. They were desperate to get us out asap since there were walkins waiting outside. Various servers kept trying to remove our plates multiple times before we were done with any of the dishes, they brought us the check before we even ordered dessert, eventually asked us to get up (90 mins into our resy). So we were gearing up to get up when yet another person then came up to me, removed the napkin off my lap and asked "you don't need that anymore, do you?" I get that they are populat and busy. I am happy for them, but it is not a relaxing environment to catch up with a friend being rushed that way. read more

The ambiance was cute and lively but too noisy. It was hard to even hear my friend right next to me. The polenta breads were actually delicious, highly recommend the one with calabrian chilli. They ran out burgers at 6:30 which I think is a little ridiculous. The two sheets lasagna was very disappointing with burnt pieces and a too squashy filling. read more

We came for two of our friend's bday celebration and everything was great! They offered a pre-fix menu and we added a la carte. Staff was super friendly and helpful, and let me tell you, these small plates were amazing! I forgot to take a photo of the prosciutto but goddamn that was delicious! The mortadella was one of the best I've ever had. The lasagna is not your typical Lasagna but it so good! Could have used a little more sauce though. The head on shrimps were messy but delicious. Definitely get the potato's war style! Every dish had such great flavors. The rib eye and pork chops were a little over done to my liking. The hanger steak was perfect! I'd skip the rib eye and just get the hanger steak. I have to come back earlier next time to try and snag a burger! read more

Food: 8.7/10 Service: 8.5/10 Ambiance: 8.4/10 Went to Rolo's on a Monday night in early March. Arrived early and sat at the bar. I'd been meaning to try this restaurant since the Eater NY video profile on April 5, 2023. The title of the YouTube video said it had the best burger in NYC. Then it became popular on Instagram. So I went to try it. It is a great burger. Much better than the Wendy's baconator that I had last week. It is very juicy and nicely seasoned, topped with grilled onions and dijonnaise. It does not have the dry aged funk of the Red Hook tavern burger, but is equally delicious, if not more so. I still have Luger's and Raoul's up higher on my list, but Rolo's offering is certainly up there. The ribeye took a while to come out. The bartender said they let it rest a while before serving, but I would have preferred they send it out to the table a little sooner and at a higher temperature. It's still a great steak, but quite pricey. The Rolo's daiquiri #1 and the martini french (french rhum, vanilla cordial, blackberry, pineapple & lemon juice, salt, herbsaint), both $16, were well made, refreshing concoctions. I enjoyed the former more than the latter. This daiquiri is better than Raoul's version, though maybe not quite as good as The Happiest Hour's. From some of the conversations I heard at the bar, it seems many hospitality industry people dine on Mondays. Everyone knows everyone. An industry with real community. read more

I can't say enough good things about this spot. Passionate staff, great wine list and absolutely banging food. The polenta bread with mortadella was to die for as was every other dish I tried.

This will be on my must visit list every time I'm back in NYC. read more

All the stars go to our waitress bc she was really nice and attentive.

Alright, with much anticiaption, finally made it here. The place is pretty chill, nice good environment, staff seemed nice, overall, a solid 4 of 5. The only thing that quirked me and the person I went with was where we sat, people were constantly putting their arm over the barrier into our space, it was unnecessarily awkward even if we said something. The other is the way to the table we sat in, which was fine, it made sense, but customers moved other tables making getting in/out much more difficult. Food: -polenta bread - holy crap, this was insanely delicious, fantastic. -homemade mortadella - damn, this was good as well, and a nice portion size, we were surprised we didn't get like 2-3 small pieces -2-sheet lasagna - very, very good, it could use a LITTLE more bolognese to the edges, as some pieces of the lasagna was literally just the top/bottom sheet, otherwise, damn. -burgers - ok, damn, what a disappointment after all the hype these get. the bun is amazing, but almost too soft for a burger like this. burger seemed a little overcooked (asked for med-rare) and could have used a pinch more salt/pepper, and the bacon was not worth adding at all, it did not anything and was more of a nuisance eating as it was crumbled bacon instead of strips, and didn't have a lot of flavor to it. Overall: -i'd come back and repeat most of what i ate minus the burger and be a very happy person. -prices/portions were a welcome change compared to so many other nyc restaurants. Recommend going: yes. read more

Came in here blind with some friends. Apparently this is a popular celebrity spot. I was skeptical because it seemed super classy. Not really my type of place. However everything tasted great and was fulfilling. I had the Wagyu Steak only because the double cheeseburger was sold out. I had it cooked medium rare which is their standard doneness and the only way to cook a steak! The large plates lived up to their name. I was wasn't sure if it'd be enough for us. I powered through the steak. It was delicious and chewy. Best steak I've had in a long time but I haven't eaten steak in a long time. For dessert I had the rhubarb tart and also got to taste the other deserts. The tart was delicious, personally I thought the chocolate mousse was the best. I also tried their salad, war fries, and chickpeas with tahini. The war fries came with a delicious spicy peanut sauce. The waitress tried to warn us that it was spicy but it honestly wasn't bad. The chickpeas paired up well with the salad and bread that we got. I don't know if I'd order it again. All in all, the only complaints I had was the price and lack of sides with our main dish. Food was great though and I see why it's a popular spot. read more

Saw Rolo's on Tik Tok and have been meaning to try it but it's kinda out of the way for me. Lucky me one of my friends chose to have her birthday here tonight and it is such a cute gem! The vibes are immaculate and the waiters were so attentive. We had a prefix menu but everything was delicious. Some things that stood out to me were the shrimp, tuna carpaccio, potato croquettes and the sheet lasagna. Oh and how can I forget the steak, it was cooked perfectly. Drinks were also delicious although the Sammy Paradise was a little pricy at $28. Nonetheless, I thought it was tasty. I would love to come visit for brunch next time :) read more

Hands down my favorite burger, sharing the top one rank with Raoul's. Although it was said to be wood fire burger, I did not get much of the smoky fire flavor. Instead, the patty was incredibly beefy due to high fat percentage. The white cheddar cheese and the muster seed - mayo sauce compensated the patty, while onion aioli provided extra layer of juiciness. Besides the burger, the olive oil polenta bread was quite bland by itself. The texture was awesome, chewy inside and crunchy outside. Maybe next time I will have the martadella with the plain bread or order sesame one. Rolo's is more of a neighborhood restaurant. With casual vibe, it made my Sunday brunch enjoyable. Along with friendly bartenders and hostesses, definitely worth a visit if you are in the Queens. read more

Now that I've been here twice I feel like I can make a full review! I love it here from the staff (Steven was our server both times and is amazing!) to every single dish we've tried. Here's what we thought: MUST TRY: - Two Sheet Lasagna: this is a green lasagna that is DIVINE in both texture and taste - Polenta bread: any of the three are great but the Calabrian chili is our favorite - Cheeseburger: yes it's worth it just get it - Crispy Potatoes war -style: divine -- the sauce is insane like a spicy peanut sauce with a cream sauce and raw onion is so so good DRINK: - the drinks fall under the must try list!! We've tried the natural wine too which is an impressive selection. - The Italian martini: like a dirty martini with a splash of aperol - the white Negroni and tonic: like a very refreshing Negroni -- went really well with the potatoes GOOD: - Gemmeli pesto pasta: very good red pesto pasta which was very heavy on the pine nuts which made it very nutty and delicious! - Beet salad: I loved this and it's a generous portion -- the cheese is shredded on so it's a perfect bite every time. - Pickled carrots: perfect. You will not have a bad meal here!! We'll be back! read more

The service was wonderful and our server was very knowledgeable of the menu and was sure to give us the complete run down including the special pastries they offered for the day. I really loved the chili bread, avocado toast and mango lassi (not pictured). Everything was flavorful and delectable. The special pastry had some orange blossom and other flavors I can't remember right now but it was perfect! The chickpeas were also a special treat and compliments of the chef since my friend frequents rolos. Overall 10/10 highly recommend. Hope to be back soon! read more

The flower power sour is super sweet and tart - like candy almost. I loved it. Food was incredible. We got the Calabrian chili oil polenta bread, lasagna and the burger. One of the best burgers I've had in the city. Loved this place and would definitely go back. Ambiance was no frills but welcoming. Good for a group or date night.

Get a reservation and bring an appetite, this is probably the best restaurant I've been to in Ridgewood. Got the inspiration after seeing Eric Warheim dining here, and decided to try brunch - wow. All of it wow. Really great service, lots of knowledge of the menu, a hip happening spot good for families, and food that just dazzles. We started with the house made mortadella. YUM. Even without bread, it was divine. Melt in your mouth meat, perfectly seasoned and lightly shaved. SO. GOOD. The Mrs. Crispy on the brunch menu is the thing. Poached eggs, ham, cheddar, over the polenta bread and baked into a rectangle of goodness with crispy edges. Its so much food but couldnt put down the fork. The seasonal and newer crab dish, jonah crab, kolhrabi, polenta bread, was so fresh and delicate. I love the bread so much. While salad is the healthy move, the bread I could just live in. I loved how much crab there was and the lime really added that bright citrus flavor - another dish I couldn't put my fork down on. Absolutely have to come back for dinner and update my review though I don't think I can get another star to give, but I would rate this 6/5 stars. read more

I had a lot of friends recommending Rolo's. You have to make reservations in advance because they get booked up so decided to make reservations for our anniversary dinner. We arrived right on time and we were seated within 5-10 minutes. Our server was super nice and offered us free glasses of champagne for our anniversary. We ordered drinks first and both were very good. The pineapple margarita was spicy! Honestly, everything we ordered was so good! We decided to try the T-bone pork chop and the rigatoni (special pasta of the day) and the t bone was amazing. So juicy and flavorful. The pasta was also delicious. We also ordered the dark chocolate caramel mousse. Yum! Definitely a great date spot! Will come again very soon! read more

I always say word of mouth is the way to go. Rolo's was recommended to me but a friend. I finally got a reservation and decided to go on date night. Service was very attentive and the food was unexpected. We ordered the grilled shrimp app. It was so flavorful and full of the "sea" taste. We wanted to lick every part of the shrimp and our fingers it tasted so good. We are not big bread people but the waitress recommended the flat bread with the chili butter. Whooooo. Another surprise, it was delicious. Ours was perfectly baked. Very little charred areas which was a plus for us. Noticed some other tables ordered the same thing and the breads came out pretty burnt. So now ok to the star of the show-the pork chop. It came with a topping of very fresh tomato salad. I don't like tomatoes and I ate all of the salad. The dressing was so refreshing and such a palate opener. For our pasta dish, we were deciding between their signature and popular lasagna dish and the special of the night-crab pasta. We opted for the crab pasta but had some remorse afterwards. The pasta dish was very plain and very very salty. I ordered a the dirty French martini and my husband ordered a beer for drinks. Note that portions are not too big. We were full with what we ordered and couldn't finish the pasta but we are not big eaters. read more

Such a cute little spot with a beautiful and airy interior. The staff was kind and very helpful which was great since they recently changed the brunch menu. Was super disappointed to find out that they got rid of their chicken and waffles for bunch and the only way to get it now was to order the fried half chicken and the malted waffle which would be $52. The burger was excellent and would definitely get it again. The war crispy potatoes were interesting but had a lot of different spices/flavors which is not mentioned anywhere on the menu. Also, considering the area I think this place was a little over priced. Would maybe give it another try in the future but bring back the chicken and waffles!! read more

If Rolo's wasn't as far from when I live, I would definitely go back again. Their food items are "simple" enough, but have a slight twist and unexpectedness to them. Between 2, we ordered the stracciatella and Calabrian chili butter wood-fired polenta bread, two sheet lasagna verde (Bolognese), burger, and brown butter and blackberry tart. I know they are quite known for their burgers, but we were not too impressed - our personal take was that it was good, but nothing astonishing and perhaps journeying all the way to Ridgewood for. However, their stracciatella and polenta and two-sheet lasagna are worth a separate journey for sure. The stracciatella was so perfectly whipped, salted, and with the freshly baked polenta bread that was just ever so slightly spicy, was a match made in heaven. Honestly, we could have ordered another portion of the stracciatella if we weren't already full. The two-sheet lasagna is so thin, but the top crispy and Bolognese in full flavour. Loved these two orders and would tell anyone going to Rolo's to definitely order! read more

Terrible service and don't get drunk too much ice for no reason. Burger is really good thou and I did like the environment. Would come again but I'm already ready to have trash service read more

Took the gf here a couple months ago after walking by all the time. The ambiance was really cool and we dug the vibe. The food and drinks were also pretty good as well, definitely not bad at all. I ordered the Pork T Bone and it was delicious. I just think for the price point it didn't meet the mark for my gf and I. Could see us going back again in the future, just not in a rush to do so. 3.5/5 read more
