| - After a failed experience at another restaurant down the road, we walked into Rosebud at 8:15 with no reservation. There were two servers, and the female waitress set us up even though it was practically full. Call ahead for reservations Fri and Sat nights! The menu is always changing. Both the servers were way too busy, but apparently it one the guy's first day on the job! So, it took a while, but we finally ordered drinks and food.
Highlights:
Mussels in a cream sauce. This is the creamiest sauce I've ever seen, and the other part is the grilled bread served on the side that soaks up said cream sauce like a sponge! So good.
Fries that come with the lobster.
Areas for improvement:
Lobster was slightly soft, ?overcooked? The vegetarian risotto was made with pearl-like buds of rice/barley. It was too dark to tell, but I think it could have used something else. Lots of hazelnuts, celeriac, and pear, but still it didn't quite come together.
We needed to head out before dessert, but they looked delicious on the menu.
I totally didn't mind the slow service, but I think it was just that night, too.
I'll be back for the dark candle-lit environment, and grilled bread in mussel juice.
