Rosanna’s is probably the restaurant I recommend the most to others and the one my partner and I have the most date nights at, so I best get this review in before its sale is finalized and the Rosanna’s I know and love is, extremely sadly, no longer. The aesthetic and vibe here is so cute and cozy, I love the wallpaper, the decorations, the fixtures, everything — you walk in and you feel like the place is hugging you. But it’s really the food that keeps me coming back again and again. The menu is small, and I love it that way — they have a dozen or so things they execute beautifully — you don’t need anything else. We love starting our meals with the Pane Rustico, particularly because it comes with a whole roasted garlic that when spread over the warm bread is so so good. Although the menu is small, I have never had trouble finding something vegetarian to eat. Their eggplant parmigiana is my favorite preparation of that dish I’ve had, the tri colored tortellini with vodka sauce is delicious, as is the Ravioli ala Rosanna, and the Cacio e pepe and the gnocchi when they’re available. During one of our visits their pizza special was a fried eggplant pizza and it was so good I still think about it often. We love finishing our meals here with cappuccinos and a dessert to share — usually the tiramisu but sometimes we get enticed by the seasonal bread pudding option.

As lovers of Bongiorno’s, it was an easy decision for me and the wife to visit the new rendition of 23 Dove St.

My husband and I went to Rosanna’s for the first time for our anniversary dinner. The ambiance was nice and the service was fine, but the food was disappointing. I ordered the $38 Grilled Bison Flank Steak and was informed that they do not have bison, so it would be a NY strip steak. I decided to go with it anyway. We also ordered an appetizer that did not arrive before our main courses.

Very fresh forward…loved the watermelon salad. Dressed with fresh herbs and very light. I got the eggplant..excellent very fresh very tasty. If you love eggplant this is your dish…not fried or heavy. Pasta and veggies perfect pairing. Desserts yummy!..pistachio lemon ricotta cake very tasty not too sweet! Made in house. Espresso martinis excellent..will definitely be back

This is a cute and swanky restaurant in Downtown Albany, in a newly restored historic building. The building is spotless and pristine. They have a nice outdoor patio, as well as a main dining room and a bar on the 1st floor. There are 2 additional dining/private party rooms upstairs. Staff members are friendly and helpful and service is prompt and polite. The food is wonderful. We recommend the Eggplant Parmigiana and Chicken Parmigiana.

The food was amazing. I had a lemon sauce pasta with asparagus. I got a meal from the primi section and it was a perfect size. I was very happy with the service, she was very helpful and available. The atmosphere was very comfortable and homey. There were large windows around the room with a nice view. I think the price was decent especially for what you’re getting as well.

So much to enjoy at Rosanna’s! Probably the most important part, the food, was fantastic. Such unusual and authentic Italian dishes, from appetizer to main course! Amazing! The staff were so helpful and accommodating! We even got a tour of the historic building. It is gorgeous both inside and out. A welcome gem in the center of Albany! Buon Appetito!

Their eggplant parmigiana is the best I’ve had, and given that my husband is vegetarian, I’ve had many. He, having sampled even more, is also in agreement with this statement. The crisp is unreal, and yet the slices are not overly thin, but meaty! Nothing is burned. The sauce is perfect. The salad dressing is delightfully vibrant.

If you want to feel like you are eating in the Italian countryside, this is your place. Every dish is a star. Absolutely creative, delicious and amazing ☺️! Don’t forget to get the pistachio cake for dessert. There’s nothing like it anywhere.
