"The lovely Rosella, a charming new Mid-City cafe, wine bar, and restaurant, is worth visiting for the small plates and wine prices, and every day brings different happy hour specials. Think $8 corn dogs from 4 to 7 p.m. on Wednesdays, $16 wine carafes on Fridays from 4 to 7 p.m., and more." - Missy Frederick
"Rosella, Mid-City’s cafe and wine bar has a snug backyard patio, ideal for relaxed evening meals. Grab a seat for cocktails and biodynamic wines; smoked catfish dip and Andouille corn dogs; and fried Hubigs pies, served with a scoop of rich Angelo Brocato gelato." - Missy Frederick
"Rosella is making a splash for inventive twists on comfort food like a deliciously vinegar-y, vegan red bean salad served cold, a spicy andouille corn dog, and smoked catfish dip. But the cocktails are worth a visit on their own. Reasonably-priced options include the Purple Drank (named after the famed Lafitte’s Blacksmith Shop Bar daiquiri) with vodka, creme de Violette, and Luxardo; and the Mr. Tony, with Flor de Caña, lemon, Curaçao, orgeat, and orange bitters." - Clair Lorell
"Rosella, a gloriously nostalgic restaurant with vintage vibes in Mid-City, debuted brunch this spring, adding to its versatile slate of food, wine, and cocktails. On Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., the charming cafe serves avocado toast topped with smoked catfish dip and Cajun caviar, Huevos Rosella made with a short rib-topped pupusa, mushroom toast, and a Croque Madame, among other delights." - Eater Staff
