Place was relatively empty on a Monday for lunch. There's a very clear delineation between "bar" and "restaurant" and even "take out" area - they nailed that. Pretty smart concept. I was surprised by how small the place was tho.
I've been familiar with Rosati's for about twenty years and - with the exception of that time my husband bit into a staple in his pizza (Mesa location) have never had a bad word to say about them. (My mother called the restaurant and gave them bloody hell over that...)
At any rate, about today's visit, I am pained to have to give such a low review because of my long history with the Rosait's name.
There weren't TOO many people in the restaurant, despite it being "the lunch hour". There seemed to be only one person working there... period. She was definitely the only waitress there. She was super friendly, but seemed completely overwhelmed.
I got my food in an OK amount of time. The salad came out quickly and it was not only very tasty, but much larger than a "side salad". It was very nicely made and they default to "dressing on the side" which is nice.
My problem came when my meal was done. It took an inordinate amount of time for my check to be delivered. Waiting for my check took longer than ordering, waiting for my food and eating my food COMBINED.
The value is spot on - and the food was excellent. Truly a great lunch deal. You get a lot for your money.
Again - the waitress herself was personable and friendly but she needed some help, clearly. I don't fault her necessarily, but any good bar/restaurant manager would have easily noticed something like this and stepped in and helped.
