Our dining experience was great! We were seated immediately (with reservations). My martini was substantial... fixed the way I requested. Our waiter was attentive but not intrusive. We enjoyed all of the food and had some left over to take home. We finished our meal with a delicious ample slice of chocolate cake - yum! Another nice feature of the restaurant was that we could have a conversation while we ate without interference of noise and other diners. Over all, I felt that it was a good value and will definitely return, soon.

Had another great dinner experience at Caruso's. Everything from the bread to the wine to the entrees were all wonderful. McCrey was our server and did an outstanding job. Love the half-price wine nights on Wednesday. Can't wait to return. Keep up the good work.

EXCELLENT. My wife and I had dinner at BOCA last night and it was the best meal I've ever tasted. The pomme souffle was superb!!! We shared several small plates being served 1 at a time so that we could take our time and enjoy each 1. My wife has celiac disease ( NO gluten. .not a fad. but the medical autoimmune type) but only about 3 or 4 items on the menu could not be GF. I'm an avid cook, but was really surprised at the blending of some of sauces and spices. WOW, everything we tasted was great. - OK it wasn't free, but I felt the quality of the food, and service was fairly priced.

Everyone was lovely. The oysters were some of the best I’ve had in a long time. We shared four menu items, and the server was incredibly accommodating, splitting the portions when appropriate and timing the courses to give us an opportunity enjoy each one.

This was our first time dining here. We had a great experience. Our server, Sam, was awesome. She was very attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. She did a great job suggesting menu items. The meatball appetizer is very good. One of us had a ceasar salad with salmon that was delicious and the other had the short rib pasta. We could have easily shared the pasta. The wine menu is more basic but affordable.

The atmosphere is always great. The meatballs are our favorite apetizer. The cost of the mocktails seemed a bit high. Rosie’s is one of our favorite Italian restaurants and will be back soon!
