“ Came here for my bday, the food was just average. Ordered calamari and it had 95% the round calamari and a couple pieces of the other calamari . The service was great. They were fast and friendly . The environment (we were sitting on the outside enclosed area ) was nothing special. Food was ok. But wouldn't come back as it wasn't amazing. ”
“ We arrived to our reservation a little late but we were seated right away. We had the raspberry mojito, garlic bread, baked ziti and bolognese with the house pasta. It was great! ”
“ Classic Italian & Perfect Portions! Rosebud on Rush is a must-visit for authentic Italian food in Chicago! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the service is excellent. We had pasta, and it was absolutely delicious--rich, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. The portions were just right--filling but not overwhelming. If you're craving classic Italian in a cozy yet upscale setting, this is the place to be! ”
“ I took myself on a date to Rosebuds on Rush and had the best Sunday brunch. I'm a lover of crab and Hollandaise so their Crab Cake Benedict caught my eye. It did not disappoint. The crab cakes were delicious and quite substantial and the sauce was very good. The dish included perfect, crispy potatoes. Feeling greedy, I ordered Tiramisu also. Cheers to to-go boxes. Honorable mention to the coffee they serve. The staff are wonderful and I had a great time chatting with them. I'll be going back soon. I hope to see you there! ”
“ Nice little brunch with my family. Chill spot to grab some food. Eggs Benedict were pretty good. Never had them on crab cakes but there's a first for everything. Good dish but I'll stick to classic after that. Would recommend for a lunch with family. ”
“ 12/27/24 we decided to spend our Friday evening here. Dinner for 5 with deserts and 1 drink each was $300.00 + the tip. Here is a breakdown of our dishes, 1 Meatball salad, 1 lasagna, 1 Mediterranean salad w/a few shrimps, 2 vegetarian dishes and NO sides with any of the dishes. Oh yes, and a basket of cold store bought rolls. I can't say it was $300.00 better than other Italian restaurants we've tried but hey it's Christmas and all 5 liked their dish so money well spent. The service was spot on and the ambiance was really nice. We sat in the covered patio and watched the Christmas crowed pass by. ”
“ We came here for Christmas Eve tonight and it was quite bustling! We were seated outside in their heated outdoor area and boy were the heaters on! We were very toasty! We ordered the tortellini carbonara, spaghetti and meatballs and the chicken parmigiana. Our food came out in a reasonable amount of time that we didn't have to wait long. Nice place off of Michigan and Chicago for any lunch or dinner. ”
“ This has a cute Italian outdoor seating area where you can see the bustling Chicago streets around you. A good variety on the menu, but the brunch menu is more limited compared to their menu after 2 pm. I was hoping to try their gnocchi, but it was unavailable. Instead, I got the Italian Beef Sandwich. This was not bad! The au jus was definitely the best part, but since the sandwich was so big, there wasn't enough! I couldn't finish it since it was too dry without the au jus. The fries are also really well made here!! ”
