I went to Rossini’s hoping to find a great Italian meal. For starters, we had some very tasty crap cakes. For my main meal I ordered chicken parmesan and was not disappointed. The chicken and cheese were wonderfully enveloped in a delicious marinara sauce. The service was perfect with an attentive but non-intrusive waiter making sure our eating experience was the best.

Very small portions. Usually old school Italians can’t feed you enough. Disappointing.

This place lived up to all my expectations. Came here for my boyfriends birthday all the way from DC, had to choose a restaurant based on our hotel location/Yelp reviews and OH my I’m so glad we chose Rossini’s. Delicious food, classy atmosphere, outstanding service. Will definitely make this our go-to spot ever time we’re in Manhattan!

If you want excellent Italian food look no further. This is a hidden gem. You will receive a warm welcome from the staff as soon as you walk in. In the main dining room the pianist plays classic while you dine on authentic Italian. I’ve eaten here several times and every dish is incredible. Eggplant parm, veal franchese, the pastas are freshly made. Mozzarella and tomato melts in your mouth. Oysters on the half shell are plump. I can go on and on and I won’t so you should explore the menus. The wait staff is excellent and Extremely attentive. Raymond is the GM and boy he will make you feel like your part of the family. Bön appetite is all that’s left to say. Oh yeah, save room for the tiramisu. It’s kick ass

Went for lunch during restaurant week. When I first walked in, I almost turned around. The front bar has a gross dirty tile floor and looked like the last time anything had been cleaned or updated was 1962. It was also seemingly empty. However I trekked to the back, where it was surprisingly busy. The food was standard red sauce Italian(with the parsley garnish). Nothing life changing, but nothing bad. The Calamari was a little thick and greasy. The Rav’s were serviceable. The whole place needs a face lift. It felt very banquet hall esq.

Visited for restaurant week during my first trip to NYC. The service is phenomenal; the servers are classy, polite, and attentive. The guy at the coat check was a riot! I feel like this restaurant missed the mark with their prix-fixe Restaurant Week options. The food seemed to be of excellent quality, though some of the dishes were too simplistic. I ended up going out for pizza and beer later because I was starving. I’d bet that the food on the regular menu is phenomenal, but I wouldn’t be willing to pay for it based on first impressions. Would recommend; wouldn’t return.

Decided to try Rossinis during Restaurant week… The menu looked great… Dinner was fabulous and everyone had just commented that we all wanted to return at another time until we were served our desert! A very large cockroach walked across the table! I know the roaches are not unusual for Manhattan but I would rather not see them while I’m eating… we spoke to the Manager who just offered an oh! I think that Rossinis need to close and take care of the situation immediately as well as the health department making an inspection… My theory is if there is one there are more.

By far the worst service I’ve ever experienced in NYC. The waiter literally acted as if I was bothering him by trying to place an order after waiting for 30 minutes. Salad was fresh and chicken special was ok but not worth the wait or price.

Ate dinner in Rossini’s early Jan 2016 on a recommendation of my sister who joined us. I grew up in NY(Bronx) now live in Texas and visit family and friends every year. By far the food was the best Italian I have had in NYC(in the past 20 plus yrs). It was about 10−20% higher than«most» but without a doubt well worth the extra cost. The service was exceptional and all meals were fantastic.

The authentic Italian food and the atmosphere are amazing! We had the Gamberi Freddi(jumbo shrimp cocktail), Vitelli alla Rossini(veal sautéed in a delicate wine and mushroom sauce accented with prosciutto and onions) and Spaghetti alla Carbonara(pasta bathed in a delicious combination of pancetta, prosciutto, onions and parmigiana reggiano cheese). And a perfect ending to our meal… a great cup of coffee, cappuccino and biscotti. Can’t wait to go back!

So we love this place and have been here many times. Unfortunately tonight was not good. After a long, exhausting day at work, I just wanted to meet my husband and unwind over delicious food. While the food was very good and the service excellent, the atmosphere ruined our dinner. It was very loud in the main dining room so we decided to sit outside in the bar area. It was wonderful until one guest asked for the music to be turned off and the GOP presidential debate on the TV to be turned up very loud. If I wanted to stay home and watch TV I would have.

Great Dinner with family. We brought out two little kids and they loved it. The waiters had the uniforms. They cooked the apps at our table. And the food was fantastic. It was a lot of fun and I will be back.

This place is a gem! It’s my favorite place to go to to feel like and eat like a king. Foods always excellent and service even better. They don’t have resturant like this anymore. Def go for the lobster Fri Diablo the best dish you will ever eat. Great for a date or an important business meeting.

Went with my Aunt, who was a regular there years ago, last week. I was pleasantly surprised by the outstanding service, the nice variety and fairly priced wine list and the most authentic northern Italian food I’ve had in a long time! All in all a great restaurant. I gave it a four because the bathrooms need updating. Looking forward to my next visit!

Came to Rossini’s while in NYC for a trade show at the advice of a friend. Brought some clients and had a great time. Waiters in tuxedos were very attentive and pleasant, food and wine was great. The piano player was great. Overall great, old school Italian atmosphere.

The service was excellent and the food was prepared well with good spacing between courses. The restaurant was not quiet and perhaps a bit too noisy for easy conversation because of the piano music

Nice ambiance. Inattentive waiters in tuxedos. There’s a pianist. My husband said it reminded him of a cruise ship dining room. I had: Vitello alla Pizzaiola 28.00 Slices of veal sautéed and enveloped in a light tomato sauce with mushrooms and peppers Husband had: Filetto di Manzo alla Rossini 42.00 Medallions of Filet Mignon served in a hearty wine sauce accented with prosciutto and mushrooms Food looked like it had been transferred from a TV dinner to a plate. F for presentation. F for taste. Salty. overcooked. Ugly. We were both sick when we got home. Hands down, the worst Italian food I have ever had in NYC. INEDIBLE

If your looking for an old school classy restaurant with table clothes and wait staff dressed elegantly that know about their food then you will really enjoy this place. If you are around on a Saturday night then go because there are two entertainers that sing opera beautifully. This is a romantic place that doesn’t rush you and allows you to enjoy the entire experience.

While visiting from out of town this restaurant was listed as close to the hotel. The front of the restaurant seemed a little slow but once we decided to stay and went into the back it was inviting. Our waiter was from Italy Giovanni made an amazing Chianti recommendation! The mill was fabulous the wine was delicious and the service was even better! There was live music with a piano player and the crowd definitely seem to be locals. Very enjoyable great food great atmosphere!
