Like many others, I came here recently for lunch during Winterlicious with a large group (party of 6). We selected this restaurant as it was convenient and easy to make a last minute reservation online. Overall I would rate Rosewater a 3.5/5
Food:
Almond Crusted Shrimp 2/5 - There was no evidence of almond in the dish at all. I felt the name was quite misleading. The description did mention "golden raisins" which held true as my dish was just 3 shrimp and a scatter of raisins.
48 Hour Slow Braised Short Rib 3/5 - it was good. No complaints
Sticky Toffee Pudding 5/5 - the dessert was delicious. I could have ate a second plate. I had some of the homemade sorbet which was also great
Service: 3.5/5
The staff were friendly and we were greeted right away when we entered the restaurant. Also worthy of mention was the free coat check. Our server was friendly but service was very slow which was not our server's fault. It was evident the restaurant was understaffed as the restaurant was completely full and there wasn't a single empty table.
