Just got home after visiting your place Sat.. First time out with the wife in over 6 months...a date night. Special night as we drove 40 minutes to get there. Second time we used a groupon coupon in our lifetime and were refused when we went to pay...no sign on door and waitress did not tell us. Said it was a bar hop night...have no idea what that is. She said not tonight or Valentines Day. How the heck are we to know what night it is in short north? So after wasting our time driving down there, $10 to park, and $65 cash that was my daughters book money, we left with the whole night ruined stuck with a $50 gift card to place that I will NEVER go back to. You guys are a disgrace, a joke, and a misery of an establishment!! I will let as many people know that I can, how you ruined our week! Also, thanks for refusing to give me a to go box...I hope you enjoyed the leftovers. I should of stiffed the waitress, but I took the high road and took from my daughters book money.

If you love a warm environment, classy yet casual, with a bit of a sexy vibe... If you love pizza made from the hands of God... If you love a fantastic bubbly rose... Dont waste another minute and get your tukos to Rossi. Seriously yall, I crave this place. I have not had a bad experience. Anytime Ive come its been for appitizers, pizza and drinks. I dont even know what other sorts of food they offer, it doesnt matter (sorry Chef). The pizza is hands down the best Ive had in Columbus in its category (thin crust, organic, fresh, fire cooked). 100% perfect for date night, outings with groups, co-workers, or a nice spot for a traveling traveler. GETCHYASUM! And if you message me, I will most likely meet you there..

It did not take long to get a table for two, but it must have been the last table available - on a Sunday evening after 8:30. Obviously people love the pizzas - the couples on both sides of us ordered them. However we ordered two appetizers and split a main course. The appetizers were very good, especially the lollipop lamb chops. Meat balls a bit too spicy for my companion. However, the stand-out was the lobster risotto. Perfection, but would have loved more lobster meat. Will definitely get that again and offer to pay extra for more lobster. They offer Jenis ice cream for dessert but why not walk down the block and get more varieties? Service wasnt bad at all - wine suggestion turned out to be delicious.

My girlfriend and I got 2 regular entrees, a dessert, and 1 drink. She got the fish of the day and I got the duck pot pie. The food was pretty fancy and pretty damn good, but the portions were less than filling. Dessert and drink were only acceptable. The service was good. I appreciated the atmosphere and the modern, slightly eclectic menu. Really my big complaint here was the cost. At this price point, I expect every part of my meal to be phenomenal. There are a number of amazing restaurants on High Street that offer better food and better service at a lower cost. Maybe the experience would have been different if we skipped the fancy dinner and just got a pizza and some beer.

I like The Rossi. When I visit the Short North, I like to visit on Sunday as opposed to Fri/Sat nights. On Sunday you can actually enjoy the venues better as the weekend crowd is all partied out. The Rossi is a neat little place on the corner. Good service and good drinks at affordable prices. Until I leave Columbus, The Rossi will get my money when I need a good place to grab a drink and good food. One thing I would do is remove the TV and play smooth jazz. Smooth jazz would set this place off. The Rossi is already a smooth place, they just need some smooth music. I like the Rossi because it doesnt have 15 big screen TVs. All in all, The Rossi is recommended.

First: the BEST fries in Columbus, hands down. A coworker recommended the Rossi Happy Hour on this fact alone, and I was not disappointed--I could probably drink the garlic aioil that they serve with it! A friend and I went for happy hour and were a little disappointed in the drink specials, but the food made up for it. We split the buratta and stone fruit appetizer and it was delicious, I wont go back again without ordering it. We both had the burger and fries for dinner and as I said above, the fries are absolutely delicious. The burger was solid, too and Id order it again. Best part? Dinner with an appetizer at under $15 each.

4 of us ate at Rossi this weekend. Some dishes were excellent, some were not. Two ordered the salmon w/ lemon couscous which was perfectly cooked and flavorful - an outstanding dish! The heirloom tomato salad was fantastic as well. On the disappointing side was the asparagus side dish - 8 grilled asparagus tips on a plate, no sauce, for $4. It was truly lame. The other issue was that one of our party is vegetarian and was really frustrated with a lack of choices for her (and a lack of a willingness to put something together for her). I would eat there again (the pizza looked excellent), but am not in a hurry to do so.

To say I love The Rossi is an understatement. As soon as someone so much as mentions "Short North," Im already twisting their arm to take me to The Rossi. I still remember my first meal there - I enjoyed a lobster cake appetizer, one of the best burgers Ive ever had as my entree and the most amazing cake for dessert to share with friends. Not only was the food fabulous, but the cocktails were, too - simply the best. The waitstaff is charming, efficient and very attentive. Just writing this review makes me realize just how much I want to go back. SOON. I really cant recommend this place more highly!

First time in Columbus and loved it, the staff is very friendly, helpful, and always smiling! You MUST try the burger, it is one to be remembered. Got in around 8 and saw many plates going out and being devoured so there were obviously lots of other great choices on the menu. The atmosphere is warm and inviting and the overall feel makes it easy to just sit back and relax. If I lived in Columbus this would be on my list of regular visits, should you be in town drop in and I think you’ll feel the same.

The staff is extremely friendly, and food was great American fare. Definitely looking forward to coming back. The burger is quite good, though it didnt feel like it had a signature flavor that made it unique. The Caesar Salad has a great presentation and is served with prosciutto, making it a standout. The drink I had was fine. I suspect the menu cocktails are quite good but I didnt get a chance to try them, opting instead for the bartenders choice.

Sad I have to give this a one star but its simply because the second you start to sit down someone will come to push you to order your main course. The attempt to push you out is so insulting and rude. The food here is a 5 but the woman constantly coming back to our table to push you out is honestly so bad. Ill never go back, they need to treat their customers better.
