"Simple and satisfying at brunchtime, Rosie serves Mexican-American favorites like huevos rancheros alongside an assortment of baked goods." - Jessica Sulima

Rosie’s is really one of those hidden gems of New Canaan. It is extremely family friendly, as we’ve brought our own kids here, and we’ve seen multiple families come through in the times we’ve been here, as well. The huevos rancheros is to die for. Their sweet treats alone are worth the visit. The pistachio and blueberry muffins are personal favorites. The decor is always perfect for the seasonal vibe. Whoever decorated inside has a refined appreciation of art without overdoing it. Eat outside if the weather is nice, but you won’t miss out if you choose to sit in, either. Come and enjoy yourself.

Really amazing brunch here. The fresh squeezed OJ is amazing. The selection of muffins is epic. Had the lobster Benedict and it did not disappoint. Their roasted potatoes are a highlight as well. They come with a lot of dishes. Highly recommend this place. Wait times can be a little long on the weekends, they don’t take reservations

Stopped by for a late lunch and decided to order the Brioche French Toast with berries and the Rosie Smash Burger. After we placed our order, our server let us know that the burger usually comes with two patties, but they only had one available and it would still be charged at full price. We decided to skip the burger and just stick with the French Toast. Visually, the French Toast looked great but once we took a bite, it was a different story. The toast was way too soggy, and all we could taste was the egg mixture. The bread itself was completely lost, which was really disappointing. Maybe some of the other menu items are better, but based on this experience, I wouldn’t recommend the French Toast.

We visited Rosie for brunch on a Sunday around noon and were quickly seated at a nice table outside with a wonderful view. The menu had lots of great options and all the food we tried was fantastic, especially the Louisiana crab cakes. They had a good amount of spice and flavour. My only complaint was that it took quite a long time to get our food, and no one was really checking up on our table. It must have been busy inside so other than that, it was a good experience.

Nestled in the heart of town, this bustling brunch spot exudes a vibrant, family-friendly atmosphere. The moment you step inside, the cheerful chatter of children fills the air, creating a warm and inviting ambiance. The establishment boasts a delightful cupcake case, showcasing an array of whimsically decorated treats that immediately capture the attention of both young and old. The menu is a perfect blend of wholesome salads and delectable brunch options, catering to a diverse range of tastes. Families with kids find a haven here, as the menu features child-friendly choices, ensuring even the pickiest eaters leave with satisfied smiles. The colorful decor and playful wall art contribute to the restaurant's kid-centric charm. However, the popularity of this charming brunch spot often leads to a bustling crowd. The wait, though worthwhile, can be a tad lengthy during peak hours. Yet, the vibrant atmosphere and delicious offerings make it a go-to destination for families seeking a delightful brunch experience, making the wait a minor inconvenience in the grand scheme of a memorable dining adventure.

3.2.24 I would have given this visit a 5, but unfortunately, although my breakfast burrito tasted great, I didn't get it until 25-35 minutes AFTER all my friends got their dishes and finished eating. I have no idea what happened. The waiter apologized and brought our table one cookie to share, to make me feel better. But it was quite uncomfortable to sit there, watch my friends eat, waiting for what was a simple order and seeing 3 other tables get their food. But besides that, the venue has a great ambiance. The baked goods look amazing, and the coffee was served hot and in a huge mug. So all positives there. I'm sure my experience was just a one-off. And no, they didn't take anything 'off' my bill. And that's ok. I'm not one of those people who expects that.

My family and I had a positively stellar gastronomic experience! The huevos rancheros are the best this side of the Mississippi, the lobster club is gargantuan and to die for, and the muffins are world beaters. We've been coming for years and the quality has always been consistent, hughly recommended.

Rosie on Elm St in New Canaan is one of our favorite restaurants and we've eaten at a lot of different places from world-renowned Michelin-rated restaurants in Napa to authentic hole-in-the-wall eateries in Long Island City where NY cabbies gather in between shifts. What ties them all together is quality. Every dish on the menu at Rosie is great with seasonal specials that everyone should try when offered. My two favorites are the Fillet Mignon and Beef Brisket Tacos both of which I've ordered and eaten more times than I care to admit. For non-meat eaters, Rosie also has delicious options on the menu for vegetarians and vegans; and you don't have to be either to recognize and enjoy delicious food without meat like the desserts; speaking of which Rosie is known for its gigantic muffins. When dining-in, I highly recommend saving room for a muffin or if you're too full at the end of your meal, order one or a few to-go. The banana walnut muffin is insanely good! Regarding ambiance, the restaurant is small, casual and quaint -- a place you'd expect to see in a small New England town that's also rated the best place to live in Connecticut. During the Spring, Summer and Fall months, you can dine outdoors with your fur babies. New Canaan is a dog-friendly town and the people and service at Rosie are great too. There's street parking in front and a public lot just around the corner from the restaurant.

Rosie's is always delicious. It's a favorite of our family's. My son loves the choc chip pancakes. I have tried most of the egg dishes as well as the salads. All delicious. Friends have tried and loved pretty much anything else. The mixed berry muffin is worth a cheat day. Others in our group love the chocolate chip and blueberry too.

I went here for my birthday for breakfast with a couple of friends. Very cute environment. They have little picnic tables inside for seating. The service is par. They do what they need to do and that's really it. The food is pretty good, but I've definitely been to diners that are better. I would honestly come back just for the ambience!

Hate to leave a negative review but this is now the second time we have received muffins that are burnt on the bottom (even muffin tin holder is charred) and not cooked at all in the middle - raw batter. When they are on these cranberry muffins are the best I have ever had but something seems off - maybe oven temp. 3 muffins / cookies = $36

Yelp
Over-rated here. Although portions were large and presentation good, my omelette arrived cold while my wife's poached eggs were correct serving temperature. Evidence of a misdirected kitchen. Service was ok. When told of the improper temperature, the waitress did take the omelette back for reheating. Returned, it was still cold. I gave up on it. For New Canaan prices, this is not worth it. Indoors is noisy. Outdoors, where we sat was okay. Nice view of the Lucids and Rivians passing by, as well as the undiscerning yuppies at hand.

Came here on a recommendation from a friend. When we arrived we were told there is about a 25 min wait. We had no issue waiting and visited the awesome book store just next door. We received a call when our table was ready. Cool! The interior is simple very relaxed atmosphere. Staff is over the top friendly and welcoming. They had a Saturday Brunch menu as well as the regular menu. The menu offers a wonderful selection of food and drinks I ordered the spicy Bloody Mary and my husband got the regular. I had a hard time choosing my food as so many items looked so yummy. Our waitress said everything on the menu is tasty but did point out some favorites. I ordered the Baja wrap which was very good and satisfying I also ordered a side of eggplant fries. The fries were very oily and later on I felt sluggish because that oil sat like a brick I had to drink Pepto. I almost took one star off because of the oily fries but perhaps that was my own fault since I don't eat much fried food, I should have used better judgement. My husband ordered everything bagel with smoked salmon and the taco salad. Both were very good he said. The dessert table looked amazing so I got a couple of cupcakes for my friends kids, s'mores and chocolate chip cookies all were very tasty they said. The place is busy, coffee smelled delicious and tasted very well made. I will return.

The service was great and friendly. I had ordered the French toast which I was super excited about. Once I got my French toast it looked awesome, but my excitement faded at the speed of light. The French toast had no flavor. No hint of vanilla, cinnamon or any of the other usual suspects you expect to come through when enjoying French toast. They served it with no butter, which they quickly brought out when asked, like I said the service is great! I lathered that toast up with butter like a glazed pig hoping that with the maple syrup would save this insult to the breakfast staple we know as French toast, but I had a better chance of winning the lottery. Even with all that sugar and fat I had to eventually abandon that dish because it was so tasteless I couldn't finish it. Now onto the coffee. I had ordered a flat white. They gave me a huge latte cup and the volume of coffee to match. Basically I got a large latte instead of a flat white. Ok, no biggie. Unfortunately due to the size of the latte the coffee was coming through weak. That said I had to add a double shot of espresso to correct it. In the end the coffee wasn't bad and I would order a cup here again, I would just let them know to keep the volume drink down when making the flat white. I saw they have a large selection of pastries which looked quite good, but I didn't try them. I would return but never order French toast again. I don't know if I would order anything off the breakfast menu due to my experience. Next visit will be a small flat white and muffin on my table.

Huevos Rancheros done the way they should be. . . And more. Delicious. They were kind enough to split our order and it was huge. The eggplant fries.... You HAVE to try them. Crunchy but not greasy at all. It was crowded on the weekends but the staff was friendly while actively trying to accommodate everyone.

I came here about 5 years ago back now and had a delicious experience, unfortunately that was not the same experience we had today. The restaurant appeared to have gone down. The food was sub par, the service was slow and the woman who greeted me was less than friendly to be kind. To be fair the coffee and cookies were delicious on the way out but I probably wouldn't come back for a meal again.

Check your credit card statement. I was overcharged $5 on my credit card. When I called the restaurant, they immediately knew why I called. The manager was rude and combative. This is theft to purposely overcharge someone's credit card. It was a good thing I took a picture of my receipt when I was at the restaurant. If this happened to you, please report the restaurant to the police. This is theft and forgery to change what I wrote the receipt.

So we're here in New Canaan for lunch before a concert. Found this place on the internet. They don't take reservations, so we had to wait for 20 minutes. I've decided to sit outside meeting Bella and Bowie two delightful doggies, until my friend arrives. Finally seated, the place is very whimsical with a mishmash of different furniture. Picnic tables included. The art on the wall is bright and fun. Our table near the front window is bright and inviting. Thankfully not the two seats near the front door , Rob our waiter comes right over. First some cocktails, Prosecco for me and my quest a grapefruit mimosa. For breakfast pancakes and a spinach, mushroom cheddar omelet. But first we just have to have one of those blueberry muffins! Rob brings over a HUGE muffin. My guest says one of the best she's ever had. The food they've brought is over the top. WOW delicious, delicious, delicious! Abundant. So we're sitting, chatting away until show time. Glad they're not throwing us out. Yet! Ha ha

Decided to visit for some French Toast after checking local spots near me but I was very disappointed when I opened them. The bread was super soggy and just tasted like eggs and does not justify the $20 price. I should point out that the workers were nice and welcoming but overall disappointed in the food.

Visited last weekend for lunch and had the chicken enchiladas and the red snapper tacos. The portions were huge and the food was really good. Had a chai latte that was also incredible. Dinging one star because the last of my tacos had an amazing sauce, but my first two tacos didn't, which was a shame.

Our take-out lunch was so greasy, so not fresh and just so bad here. Inedible really. One sandwich had a very off flavor. The fries were mush. Was going to call to complain but hate doing that. Also hate throwing money away on food that is of such low quality, it shouldn't have been served. Been around for many years and I always see it packed.. maybe just my bad luck but I really don't understand.

Food was good but took forever and we were the only people there. Server took about 10 min to bring us waters. Inside needs a deep clean. We ate on the patio and it was nice. The highlight was visiting the cute bookstore next door.

This spot is def my favorite in New Canaan! It's always busy which is a great sign. The host takes your number and calls when your table is ready which allows you to shop in charming downtown New Canaan. The ambience is charming and changes periodically by focusing on various artists or decorating for holidays. Always a good cafe vibe though. I've been going to Rosie for a couple of years now and was surprised I had not written a Yelp review yet. The staff is attentive and friendly. And the owner is almost always on the premises. It always makes me happy when the owners are present. Today I had the turkey chili which was perfect for this cold January day. One of my favorites is the crispy cauliflower either as an appetizer or as tacos. So good with just the right amount of spice. Rosie isn't afraid of cooking with bold spices which is one of the main reasons I keep coming back. Not spicy hot...just bold flavors. I've had all of the tacos and been happy across the board. The lobster when it's in season is incredible. And I often take a blueberry muffin or a s'mores cookie home with me. They've handled the pandemic very well. Always wearing masks, socially distant, reduced capacity, disinfecting, hand sanitizer available, etc. they do a very good catering and takeout business as well which is great. I'm a big fan. Just know that it is going to be busy and there will most likely be a wait. The food isn't fast food. They used to have a saying on the chalkboard that said something to the effect of "Rome wasn't built in a day and neither is your breakfast". But I've always been taught that good things come to those who wait...and Rosie is always worth the wait. Sumita was my server today and she is always attentive to detail and friendly. Lindsay, Matt, Rob...I've never met a staff member that I didn't like!

First time in New Canaan and just had one of the best brunches ever. The food and service were unreal. I want to go back to try everything on the menu. This place was highly recommended by a friend and he said Rosie is the loveliest lady. The lavender from my lavender mimosa came directly from her garden. The Tipsy Farmer and the brisket nachos were bomb ass tasty. Make sure to visit when you're in town! It'll be worth the wait.

Always love the food here. It's not cheap, and often can be a wait for a table (reservations only for 6 or more) but the ingredients are sooooo good... staff are great. Fresh baked goods. Good coffee and espresso. Love the huevos rancheros. Good catering options too.

As I sat at the table waiting for my waitperson, I could not help but look at plates of food coming out of the kitchen to be served to tables as well as some jumbo muffins to be put on display. Wow! Everything passing by looked incredibly appetizing and I couldn't wait to give my order for almost anything on the menu. (Let's see what happened when my food arrived.) Oh no! The TORTILLA SOUP, HUEVOS RANCHEROS, THE CLASSIC sandwich, and the gorilla size BLUEBERRY MUFFIN all had different strange flavors in them that, for me, did not go well with any one of the dishes. The only saving grace, surprisingly, were the super thin FRENCH FRIES the waitperson recommended that were from frozen potatoes; not fresh, but were crispy on the outside and fluffy and tender on the inside. As it turns out, it appears to be one of the most popular items on the menu.

The food here is superb! Located in the village of new Canaan. Perfect location to take a stroll after brunch to shop either truly or window browsing. The staff here is wonderful and will accommodate you in any possible way. They ran out of lobster last Sunday so I was sulking for awhile. However, I went with a great second choice; omelette that was amazing. Fresh kale, tomatoes, Swiss and spinach with a side of home fries and fresh fruit. The chai latte is perfectly balanced with delicate flavors instead of the robust in your face notes many chai lattes have. My daughter had the oatmeal with fresh fruit and she was not disappointed. The fresh squeezed orange juice mimosa is a great compliment to any meal. We were actually recommend to try this place from the staff at the coffee barn in Wilton, CT. I'm so glad they informed us of this gem! Looking forward to going back! I'm in love with the ambience and the food. Please stock up on lobsters on the weekends and never run out of champagne for those mimosas!

Food is always good but I think a bit overpriced. Also, most times when I eat here, my boyfriend & I always seem to get gassy after... & it's EVERYTHING bothers us. Not sure why. But it doesn't stop us from going. Friendly service, casual atmosphere, good food. Just expensive.... There are no prices on the website & at my own fault, I didn't ask the price on the phone. I paid $20 for a bagel sandwich with smoked salmon& added avocado.... Paying $20 for a bagel sandwich was shocking.... I could probably head to a bagel / deli shop & pay at MOST $10 for a bagel & smoked salmon sandwich .... That being said, it was really good but not $20 good LOL.

I went to Rosie in a Saturday for brunch with my husband. It was around noon. There was a wait but wasn't too long, about 10 min-15 mins. Once we sat down the services came quickly. The menu is simple and small. Not much choice and the price seems to be high. Simple 2 eggs any style with toast and home fries is $14. After we ordered our food, it took nearly 20 mins to come. While we were waiting, I had a latte which actually was really good. The food came and the portion is small. I think I had in total 9 home fries in my plate. I didn't mind of the small portion since the food actually tasted good, not excellent but good. Besides the price doesn't match the portion, I actually enjoyed the meal. However, couple hours after I had the meal (I didn't have anything to drink or eat in between), I started to have gas in my stomach and almost felt like heartburn. All I had was 2 sunny side up eggs, some bacon, couple home fries, a wheat toast and a cup of latte. I wasn't over eaten or had something new. I have no idea what cause of it. Overall, I don't think I would go back there.

I went in for their fluffy, generous pancakes, remembering them from a year ago. This year, the price had gone up, and the pancakes were thin, tasteless and half the size. Not going back.

Man, I love this place. Cozy, friendly servers, and a menu that can't go wrong. This place is built for brunch. I last had the chorizo burrito, which was delicious beyond belief. Leave room for the baked goods, which at Rosie's are incredible -- some of the best muffins you can get.

Great food could need a little boost of good energy from some of the waitresses. Sometimes hard to get a reservation with so many people on weekends so make sure you take a reservation.

Love their food, never ever disappoints! That said, at times wish the front of house staff (not Sumita, she's wonderful), were a tad nicer. Whether it's a takeout order, dining inside or outside there's an undertone of passive aggressiveness and attitude that's not the kindest. Specifically, I believe the managers name is Matt, but he and the taller, blonde woman could should consider a management training of some kind. Would dine more frequently if they were nicer to customers. Three weeks ago I was told that I couldn't dine alone as and I quote 'not enough money to be made on sole diners on the weekends'... didn't realize it was a punishment to be independent??

Blueberry muffins are my favorite, however sometimes I don't get there in time and they are gone. Chicken tacos are great for lunch and I hear the lobster tacos are just as good. Can't wait to try them. Curbside pickup has always been on point, never a mix up or mistake.

Another New Canaan staple. Goooood-ish? They try too much, over complicating dishes that are great because they're SIMPLE. I ordered a breakfast burrito and was disappointed, not to mention waited 40 minutes for it. Cool for a Sunday brunch. But keep expectations to a minimum.

Yelp
I used to love Rosie's for breakfast. Today was a huge disappointment. I ordered an omelette , which was brown and greasy. My order came with toast I got a single piece of the smallest piece of rye toast that was burnt and loaded with butter, completely inedible. I think for an $18 omelette you could spare 2 pieces of toast, just saying. The muffins we ordered were great and probably the only thing I will go back for which is why they get 2 stars. If you're looking for breakfast go somewhere else, a run down diner would have been better than what I had today.

Incredible muffins. The corn muffin is the best in my opinion. Brought my honorary grandparents here and the staff was so kind to them and allowed us to stay to talk for a long time without rushing us out. Definition of quaint.

Maybe it's redundant to review Rosie given all the praise this fantastic place has gotten so far, but I like it just that much. Hard to resist the lobster club sandwich when in season, just so good. Great cookies and cappuccinos too. Perhaps better to go a little later during the lunch hours to encounter less of a huge crowd and wait, but it's always worth it!

This place is amazing!!! Everything I had today was so so good! I'm almost embarrassed to admit everything I tried here - anyway, the blueberry and peach muffins were to die for. The peaches and blueberries were warm and the muffin melted in my mouth. Then I had the huevos rancheros which was amazing - the portion size for this was huge. It was super yummy and I would definitely order this again. I also tried the chorizo breakfast burrito - it was pretty heavy, but so good! Maybe I would get this for lunch or dinner- it was heavier than I would've liked for breakfast. Or maybe I'd get it for brunch - I'll definitely be back here even though it's a pretty far drive for me. So worth it!

I went to Rosie on a busier Saturday afternoon for lunch. It certainly has a great aesthetic and ambiance, both bustling and quaint at once. We did not have to wait for a table but unfortunately it was so busy we had to wait on the longer side for our meals. Located in downtown New Canaan, it is a great and convenient spot. The menu is diverse for breakfast and lunch, with accommodating options for vegetarians. I do think it is on the pricier side for what is standard American lunch fare, even for New Canaan standards. The portions are a good size and the food quality is above average. I thoroughly enjoyed the shrimp quesadilla. Overall I think this is a good (not yet great) place to go for a casual meal in the Fairfield county area. Get the cold brew, it's fantastic (but $7)!

To be honest, I was expecting more from Rosie. I came here on New Years Eve for lunch with a friend. The restaurant is incredibly small and crammed. When we walked in, we were greeted by a small line that kind of pushed us toward the door. A woman quickly took my name and told us it would be 15 minutes. In the line, we felt kind of crammed together but we truly only waited for 15 minutes or so. Luckily we weren't seated by the door and we didn't feel like we were too close to other people at our table. My friend ordered "The Rosie" sandwich and I ordered the Chicken Salad Brie sandwich. My friend liked her sandwich but she said it was little too juicy and it made her hands too messy. At first, I was so so about my sandwich but it grew on me. I couldn't really taste the Brie but I enjoyed the pecan cranberry bread and the thinly sliced green apples on it. The chicken salad could have been more flavorful. This place is pretty good but not amazing. The baked goods looked good when I was walking out but I didn't try any of them. Maybe next time if I'm in New Canaan.

You can't go to Rosie in New Canaan without getting the french fries, they're the best! All the sandwiches are great, the baked items, the coffees, ​and the cocktails. There is always a crowd and it's because of how good everything is there.

This is one of my favorite places to go for breakfast/brunch. I was lazy in writing my reviews, so consider this one a mass review for my numerous visits here. I've never had one bad experience. The staff is very friendly and welcoming, despite how busy and overwhelmed they can get. It's a great spot for any occasion, meeting with friends, dining alone, baked goods to-go, you name it. The prices are a little higher than expected, but then again - it's New Canaan. I love the decor they have. The artwork they have usually rotates around local artists. Their hanging lights and the picnic table in the back gives you a rustic, homey feel. The environment that they set up for customers definite contributes to a more positive experience. Now onto the food.... Muffins: man, oh man. get yourself muffin. these babies are oversized and taste soooooo good! You know that saying that a muffin is just an ugly cupcake? Get that out of your head because these are glorious and will leave you wanting more. Some flavors I've had include blueberry, chocolate chip, a pear one, banana walnut, and many others. I have never been disappointed with these. As you can tell, I really, really love their muffins. Chickies Chorizo Burrito: So delicious, very hearty and filling. I think my favorite part are the huge chunks of avocado in it. No complaints here either. French Toast: Simple, yet so good. Buttermilk pancakes: Another simple dish. My only complaint here is that they are a little salty. This is the only dish I haven't been completely satisfied with so far.

There is a Rosie and this amazing, creative, super personable chef makes the best breakfast and lunch on the planet all while putting her main ingredient, Love, into every dish she serves. Home made muffins from pistachio, blueberry, combos and my favorite cranberry hot out of the oven the best I have ever had. Portions are huge with the freshest ingredients leave me with a memory and a thought of how soon can we come back. There is nothing like Rosies in Westport so we make the trip and yes it is worth it. The chorizo breakfast burrito is my absolute favorite. Ginger scone with honey comb A+ and their coffee is very good. Their Salads are huge with the freshest ingredients picked daily. The staff is also very professional and friendly. Super clean and spacious seating inside and also a very nice outdoor area with umbrellas. When you are done wander around the town which has a feel like you are in the Hamptons. Also make a reservation to see the Glass house by Philip Johnson.

Food: 4/5 Price: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Ambience: 5/5 Cute little brunch place in New Cannen. Very popular and is full most times. Good food, but even better ambience. Omelet ($14 + 3) - 5/5. Made to order with toast & home fries. I added spinach, mushroom, caramelized onion, for $1 each. Omelet was decently sized and delicious. Rye toast was SO GOOD. Ok home fries. Brioche French Toast with real maple syrup ($16 + 3) - 3/5. added berries. 2 slices of small french toast grilled soft. Mediocre, not worth the price.

Came here early on Saturday for breakfast/brunch. We definitely missed the morning rush and were seated very quickly. The coffee cups are HUGE, which I loved. The coffee was delicious, and they even had dairy-free alternatives! There are not many gluten free friendly options unless you want tacos. Not that I have anything against, tacos, but sometimes I don't want tacos for breakfast... I made my own omelette, which was fantastic. The size was out of control. Not sure how many eggs, but I made it through half and called it quits. We even sat for a while after breakfast to enjoy more coffee before the morning rush. Because who likes to eat and run? Overall, a pleasant experience.
