Rossetti Restaurant Beverly

We had a family gathering last night where two 💖s became one, our kids got engaged. Rossetti's served us the most delicious food, the service from the staff was above and beyond what we could ever imagine, the kindness was immeasurable. Thank you Rossetti's ...we will be back! 😊💜

Excellent experience at Rossetti in Beverly! I made reservations for my husband’s birthday week and didn’t make any special requests, just mentioned the occasion. As soon as our server, Zach, introduced himself, he wished my husband a happy birthday, such a thoughtful surprise! The food was absolutely outstanding. The gnocchi melted in your mouth, the chicken parm was crispy, cheesy perfection, the tuna tartare was super fresh and beautifully presented, and the roasted pear caprese was a creative and delicious twist — loved it! The portions were just perfect, and you could taste how fresh the pasta was in every bite. For dessert, we ordered the tiramisu, which came beautifully decorated with “Happy Birthday” written in chocolate and a candle on top, such a sweet gesture! The service was warm and attentive, and the atmosphere was cozy yet elegant, not too loud, not too quiet, just the perfect vibe for a special evening. Thank you for making our night so special, we can’t wait to come back!

Everything about this restaurant truly stands out in the north shore. Hosted a party of 12 here for my birthday and my server, Marina, was fantastic! The details, professionalism and personality were outstanding. Food came out in a timely manner and every dish was out of this world. Thank you for having us!

Went for brunch. My wife had the tagliatelle - quiet good but sauce could be better. I had the prime corned beef hash - which was meh. The maple brussel sprouts ruins it - too sweet. This dish should be savory with the eggs. Not well thought out.

1st visit didn’t disappointment. Perfect location for N.S. theater. Menu is small but has everything. Eggplant apps were delicious . Homemade gnocchi are light and full of flavor. I can’t wait to go again.

This was our first time here it was the perfect spot to grab a bite to eat before going to a play. The food was excellent. It was the best espresso martini we’ve ever had. We will definitely be back. The staff was super friendly and considerate, even when our dishes were running a few minutes late, they came right over and apologized. We will definitely be back.

The place was excellent. Trendy, warm environment with friendly and fast service. The food and drinks were amazing. This place is a gem. The calamari was the best I've ever had and I've had it at a lot of places! They didn't have arancini, which I was hoping to try, but everything else was so good I quickly forgot. I had chicken parm and, wow, it did not disappoint. The chocolate martini was delicious. It was some of the finest Italian food I've had. Also, bathrooms are very clean and maintained. I'm not local but I might make a trip up there again sometime just for this place!

As the self-appointed Italian food reviewer of the North Shore, Rossetti's at 142 Brimbal Ave, Beverly, MA, is a must-visit! Cocktails: Started with a bang! The "Perfect Pear" is a must-try for sweet drink lovers, featuring pear vodka, pear liqueur, reduced pear nectar, and lemon. My mom loved the "Monkey Business," a unique blend of banana-infused rum, amaro, fig cordial, and a special house blend of bitters. Appetizers kicked off with the Port Wine Braised Veal Arancini, served over Madeira demi with aged Parmigiano Reggiano--a sensational dish that elevates arancini to new heights with its rich flavors, scoring a perfect 10/10. The octopus dish with tomato and herb broth, chorizo, and clams was delicious, though the potatoes could have used a bit more cooking, earning an 8/10. Entrees: The Ricotta Gnocchi with its creamy buffalo mozzarella and luscious sauce was a crowd-pleaser at 9/10. The signature Pasta Alla Genovese had perfectly cooked meat, though the pasta was a touch too al dente for me, also a 9/10. Main Dishes: The 14oz Grilled Bone-In Pork Chop was juicy and flavorful, enhanced by the tangy vinegar peppers, scoring another 9/10. The Branzino Puttanesca was superbly seasoned, well worth its price, and a generous portion for $46, making it a worthwhile splurge. The Branzino "Puttanesca" was packed with flavor from stewed tomatoes, olives, and chili flakes, beautifully complemented by honey roasted broccolini, well worth the over $40 price at a stellar 9/10. Dessert: Ended on a high note with Warm Ricotta "Zeppole" (Italian donuts) that were soft, doughy, and simply divine, especially with the unique hint of orange--9/10. The Fruity Pebbles Milk Punch cocktail was dangerously good, tasting just like fruity water! The most unique dessert drink, the Fruity Pebbles Milk Punch, was dangerously delicious, tasting just like the cereal-infused water! Overall, if you're an Italian food enthusiast on the North Shore, Rossetti's is worth exploring for its creative cocktails, exceptional arancini, and rich pasta dishes. Ratings: Food: 9/10, Ambiance: 8/10, Affordability: 6/10

I recently organized a corporate fundraiser to benefit childhood cancer research, and Rossetti made a very kind donation despite the fact I hadn't ever dined there. Wanting to give them my business for their generosity, I suggested to my parents that we give them a try for dinner this past Friday night prior to seeing a show at the Cabot. All I can say is wow -- everything here is truly superb! The ambience, decor, service, and food were all exceptional. We were particularly impressed by the way the entire crew seemed to operate like a well-oiled machine. Service by our waitress, Claudia, was wonderful and timely, and the everything going by from both the kitchen and the bar looked artfully crafted and delicious. We all thoroughly enjoyed our shared appetizer and individual meals. It was apparent that each dish had been made with very high quality ingredients -- simple enough that each one shined but still complex and wonderful in flavor. The manager, Toni, even came over to check on us and recognized me as the person she mailed their donation to when I introduced myself. I thought that was so nice. Thank you, Rossetti team, for your terrific hospitality and once again for your generosity. You have earned our repeat business for sure!

Price was sky high and not justified by the quality of the food. I have no idea how this place is still in business-- the food is good but at that price? Please. The gem of the menu is the ricotta gnocchi. It's a solid 8/10. Nothing else really compares. Ambience is good, ceilings are high, the crowd is overwhelmingly older. Do not trust them when asking for wine. We asked for a light crisp white, something affordable (two recent grads already spending a bit on dinner). We were recommended three bottles and asked for the cheapest. Found out it was a 60$ bottle of wine being sold for under $20 at total wine, and NOT the least expensive of what we were offered.

A perfect spot for a Sunday brunch! The space is beautiful and spacious. When seated we got lemon muffins on the house. For our meal we ordered truffled deviled eggs, brioche french toast and the brunch mac. I highly recommend it all and it was a great portion.

Thought the food was pretty solid and ambiance is nice. Additional charge added for the kitchen wasn't appreciated though. Would have assumed that would be baked into the price and never have had a sneaky addition like that on a bill before.

Ambiance, food, service all made for a wonderful meal. It was a bit loud which is why it loses a star and was hard to hear conversation at my table of 6. I got the prosciutto grilled pizza (without blue cheese) and it was very tasty and not too heavy. Good proportion of ingredients and flavor combo. I also tried the cod which came with lobster risotto also very nice. We were tired and unfortunately didn't stick around for dessert but will have to try it next time.

We've come here a few times before seeing a show at the North Shore Music Theatre and it's ALWAYS a hit. The pasta is always fresh and delicious and all entrees are worth trying. We love getting the antipasto plate - a small is perfect for four if you want to pick at something but also finish your meal. Love the cocktail list also. Awesome gluten free options and modifications (including fresh baked GF bread!). The last trip was so good we forgot to take pictures!

Can't think of a reason th go less than 5 stars. The food was outstanding. The gnocchi appetizer was great as well as the chicken dishes. Sauces, sides, and drinks were all excellent as well. Service was top notch. Will definitely be back when in the area.

I can't believe this amazing restaurant is in a small plaza just off 128. Incredibly friendly staff, excellent ambience, great drinks and wow the food! I cannot wait to go back. Absolute excellent find!

It didn't start well as we had a reservation for sister birthday and had it for over a month. We were seated 45 min after our reservation. The owner brought by a appetizer right away and apologized for our wait. We then ordered wine and three different appetizers. Two salads and they were so fresh and amazing!!! The eggplant was simply divine, best any of us ever had. All our meals were just amazing. They brought the birthday plate of cannoli. Would definitely go back if it wasn't a 7 hour plane trip.

We stopped here for brunch today. For starters, we chose the buttermilk biscuits with honey butter. They were insanely good! Our server was great, and my pancakes and my husband's eggs were cooked perfectly. If you like Gin drinks I highly recommend The Gallagher! The espresso martini was just as good. The restaurant's ambiance is cozy and relaxing. Needless to say, we will be back!

I am actually sitting in the parking lot having just finished my meal and have to write this immediately!!! Obviously, as per the previous reviews, not enough good can be said about Rossetti's ...Food (Calamari, Ricotta Gnocchi, Zeppole) we're fantastic!!! Service (not only Justin, who was great) but every busier, runner, hostess, and Chris the owner) was above and beyond knowledgeable hospitality...clean, modern but cozy, great vibe Yes their prices are high, but their quality is higher...the definition of Value (which has less to do with the cost and more to do with the worth) Usually I'm irked but tonight I don't even mind the "Kitchen Fee" because they were working their buts off to make great food fast and efficient...

I have only been to the Rosetti's in Lynn but food and service were both excellent! I wish the Rosetti's in Beverly was open for lunch.

I called to order takeout. The hostess or whomever I spoke with said the food would be ready at 7, food was not ready until 715. My bill was $130 with tip for 4 pastas. 3/4 pasta were cold. They included 4 mini "slices of bread" and some mediocre pasta dishes with tiny portions. Will not be coming back

So this place was packed and has a good reputation. We had a half hour wait and so we decided to try it. the receptionists were fantastic, especially the tall blond with curly hair (sorry didn't ask name) and was super understanding when you asked to move since the indoor patio area was super hot and no fans were on (why not?) and May i add very loud. The restaurant is upscale and classy but for some reason very loud... Our waiter was great and helped us to pick the lemon piccata, Gnocchi and Caesar salad. The salad was very fresh, but the dressing could be a little bit more tangy. Also some fresh parm on top would Really be great. The gnocchi was perfect and the red sauce was incredible. The lemon piccata sauce was so perfect and you could taste the butter and lemon but not overpowering. The chicken was so tender and light. The food really was delicious. The inside was cool and a bit dark. All in all a very good experience and with some Minor fixes could be five stars!!!

This food was incredible! Our waitress was so good with dietary needs, and our food was incredible. Good vibe, good food, I'd be happy to come back.

A must go to!!! I took the 45 minute drive and would go it again!! We were a party of 4 with a 7:00 pm reservation. I had arrived early, so I sat at the bar where I was greeted by Alexa. She was extremely pleasant and very efficient. I chose the Jimador Harvest which is made with mezcal. Before I even could say no mezcal, she explained what it was and I thought that was very impressive, as a lot of people do not like mezcal. When our table was ready we were fortunate enough to be seated in a prime spot behind the bar, where I could see the tv!! Being a huge Bruins fan, i immediately went over to as Alexa if she could switch one tv to the Bruins. She was immediately on it. When we sat down we were greeted by our waitress, named Beverly, who was awesome and a hot ticket !! Loved her vibe!! Our meals were delicious. Chicken parm, tender, cooked perfect. The veal did not disappoint as well. Loved the way the eggplant parm was prepared. A bit of crispiness and a whole lot of taste. The meatball appetizer and eggplant app were both very tasty. The freshest bread was served with the olive oil. Yum Yum!! If you're in the area or not. Take the drive. Well worth it!!!

We stopped in with our reservations on a busy Saturday night . They were able to seat the 2 of us right away . Our server was very kind, knowledgeable, and was great at checking in with our being intrusive . We started with a Caesar salad and it came with The Best homemade dressing. I had the chicken picatta and he got the chicken Parmesan. Both were extremely tasty. I would definitively go again if I'm in the area.

The good here is excellent as is the ambiance. The service was really nice a well. Love that there are a lot of regulars that come here

This is our go to for a casual meal in Beverly. Nice cocktails, plenty on the menu and usually some lunch the next day too!

We just bought a house in Beverly and this restaurant was highly recommended to us by the local realtor.We were very impressed by the decor, the atmosphere and the food was fresh and delicious. We had the best waitress, Beverly. She was attentive, friendly and made us want to become regulars.

Not what you'd expect from a restaurant in a strip mall, that's for sure. The space is beautiful with a vaulted ceilings, a fireplace, and a large modern Italian bar. And, most importantly, the food backs it up. The bone in pork w/ vinegar peppers was a fantastic upscale take on a classic; there was great zing from the acid, as they thankfully weren't shy with it. My wife and I ordered a couple of apps, and they automatically split the dishes up for us, which I thought was a wicked class move. The meatballs were quite tasty, to boot.

Stopped in and sat at a slow bar at 8:56p. I know--close to the deadline when food is still being allowed to be ordered. Asked to order some food--whatever is easy. The Bartender said that they are probably not serving food anymore but she would check. She came back and said "I can't find the manager and the cooking staff is in the back so we can't do food." I didn't make a big deal of it-I have worked in the restaurant business for 18 of my 40 working years and when someone comes in up to a few minutes before the kitchen is scheduled to close you still find a way to accommodate them. In fact, when I worked at the Chart House in Boston the company policy was to serve the full menu ordered up to 15 minutes after the scheduled kitchen closing. Not here!

Two of my girlfriends and I made a reservation a couple weeks in advance for a Friday night at 7 PM. I arrived about 15 minutes early and was told that they were clearing our table. Unfortunately, the table wasn't ready until 9 minutes after our reservation time, so that was a bummer, but it was all gravy from there. Once we were seated, we asked the waitress for some drink recommendations and she gave some helpful descriptions of the cocktails. I wanted a Vesper, which wasn't on-menu, but they were able to make it for me. It was mixed perfectly! My friends both got the pear cocktail and loved it. I tried it and it was pear-licious without being too sweet. We were given some bread and olive oil with spices and parmesan in it (I think), and it was delicious. It took everything I had not to stuff my face with more bread. We were asked if we wanted more, but declined for the sake of our entrees. I ordered the bolognese which was a nice, hearty portion of fresh pasta and robust meat sauce (veal, pork, beef). I was only able to eat about half, so it made a fantastic breakfast the next day - ha. One of my friends comes here often and she always gets the 1/2 veal, 1/2 eggplant parm. My other friend got the chicken margherita dish (not pizza). We were all totally into our large plates of food! For drink round 2, I got a boulevardier (again - not on menu) which tasted great! They obviously take a lot of care with their drink program and have lovely garnishes, gorgeous glassware - the whole nine yards. I wouldn't have expected such a high level cocktail program out in Beverly, but I got some of the best cocktails I've had in a while. For dessert, I ordered the espresso martini (heehee) and my friend maaaade us all share the ice cream sundae. The staff was super accommodating and they were able to put the dessert into separate bowls for us instead of 3 of us digging out of the same ice cream bowl. That was definitely above and beyond and appreciated - especially in these covid times. Even though Rossetti is out of the way for me, I would 100% come back here to try different entrees and more of those yummy cocktails!

The hostesses were lovely, the decor modern and very attractive and the restaurant was spotless. There was a bottle of wine on the list for exactly $2,306. Yes, this is not a misprint. The average beer was $9 and wine hovered around $16 a glass. Although I wasn't thrilled by the prices I would have been okay if my pasta bolognese had been edible. It looked unappealing and tasted even worse. Sadly it was so loud I couldn't even enjoy my dinner companions. Save your money.

Food was just alright and the restaurant is loud. Not enjoyable. Love the Winthrop location.

The octopus appetizer is delish. Also, the service & cocktails are second to none. Favorite dish is the Salmon... so far... but working our way through the menu still.

Five stars on all the above, food = 5, service = 5, and atmosphere = 5 Looking forward to my next meal here! Thank you all

Been coming here a long time. Last night was a disappointment, but hoping it will improve and will try one more time. Gnocchi's were very good. Octopus and meatballs were good, Gluten Free accommodations great. Chicken parms - came out cold and over-. Service: Hostess: Excellent. Primary Waitress: Efficient but somewhat unfriendly. Others: helpful. Business Decisions: Despite NEVER being a no-show, if you make a reservation and don't cancel it greater than 24 hours in advance, you will be charged. I had no intention of canceling, but someone should be able to call at noon to cancel a 7pm reservation without being charged. Respectful repeat customers should be treated with respect, and I am confident Open Table can accommodate that logic. Kitchen Fee - not a big deal (at all) , but just add it to the bill and pay the employees. I own a business, and I don't charge my customers by department as a way to make my prices look artificially lower. Just my opinion, but if the food and service are great, you can charge for that value and keep demand high as an organic way of conducting respectful business with your customers.

We went here with 6 friends. The service and atmosphere was great. We sat behind the fire but could understand it could get crowded and loud in the front area. The food was good according to all 8 of us. No one felt it was amazing but just good. Be aware that they charge a kitchen fee. Its like a tip for the back of the house. Its not much but its more the point of it. We all agreed that for the prices they charge, just pay your staff better.

Food was okay price was outrageous. Not my kind of place. Dark atmosphere like a upscale bar room.

We came here once to celebrate my husband birthday. The Ambiance was classy, the waitress was pleasant and superb service over all. The food was delicious, every meal they brought was finished by my family. The tab was a little more than I would spend for a good meal but over all, we had a good time! COME and DINE and see for yourself!...

One of my favorite go to places, the food and service is the highest quality! The Lynn location is amazing as well! Can't say enough good things about either one. Chris Rossetti is very gracious and will most likely come to your table to make sure you are completely happy with everything. I highly recommend both locations....

If you go for spacious , open ambiance and good wine , it's a nice spot . However , for the price , the food is sub par. The veal parm was not only very, very salty but seemed to be made elsewhere and dressed in Beverly. The broccoli raab was dry and crusty with no real flavor . Maybe , I was spoiled with terrific Italian food growing up and I'm biased. I won't waste my money there again. 80$ for a mediocre veal , broccoli raab and a glass of Pinot noir is a bit much. Service was terrific btw.

Food was perfect. They make a pear martini that tastes like a perfect fresh pear! Our server was funny, informative and attentive. The ambiance was quiet and lended itself to conversation without being overwhelmed by other diners. Both lunch and dinner was a pleasure, but lunch had been sadly suspended. Hopefully it will be back!

We had a fantastic meal and service. The reason I'm rating it a 3 is that after an almost perfect evening, I ordered a bourbon with dessert and it was most definitely watered down. This was extremely disappointing and turned a 5 star experience into a 3 star one.

Rossetti's was absolutely delicious!! We loved the atmosphere and had a table next to the gas fireplace. The service was great, highly recommend this place!

Veal and eggplant was very good. Service was good but slow. We had what they called an outside table but the room is all enclosed so don't hesitate if they tell you all they have is outside seating because the seating is very comfortable

We were happy to see a local favorite come to this convenient Whole Foods plaza. Love the interior design - a beautiful environment and unique patio area option. Food offerings were limited and we expected a higher quality taste for the price of this standard Italian fare.

Love this place! Great for date night or catching up with a group. The scampi pizza especially is different and so tasty with a perfect crispy crust. Ambiance is lovely and service is great as well.

Honestly..after a couple drinks this food sounds amazing and is quality Italian but when I say you could order the same amount of fucking pristine Italian food from the NORTH FUCKING END for half of the god damn price. I walked in and saw that my 3 entrees and two side orders were $121..I was livid because to me that is ridiculous!!!! I got asparagus for $13 and got 5 pieces of asparagus. I could go to stop and shop and get 12 pieces of asparagus for that are just as good for 7 dollars IF THAT. It just makes me so upset to be spending money for subpar food and when I could be going to Boston for the realistic Italian experience for not even that much at all. And even if it was that much it'd be better quality and bigger amounts in dishes. Just fuckin ridiculously in my opinion. Wanted to let everyone know.

Fabulous food and service. 5 Stars. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. I recommend dining there

Incredible! I can't say enough good things about this place. The Fried Eggplant and Antipasti are both outstanding. The half serving on the antipasti is perfect for 2. The calamari was the only thing that wasn't a slam dunk and that only because I felt it was breaded a little too heavily but it was still delicious and we devoured all of it. For pasta, I've been here twice and by far the best thing is the tagliatelle with wild mushrooms. I dream about it ... it's that good. Last time I ended up getting an order of it to go because I knew I would regret it if I didn't get to eat it in the morning. I've also had the linguini with crab. I'm thoroughly impressed by how much crab they include and how fresh it tasted. My friend has the chicken braciolettini and was blown away by the taste. She said it was well flavored and cooked perfectly. The wine offering is perfect and the overall atmosphere is beautiful. I usually aim for the outdoor seating as I think it's a little quieter and I like that they have heating lamps. All in all one of the best restaurants on the North Shore.

My friend and I went here for lunch and we absolutely loved everything here! Starting with the Waitress (Becca), who was the perfect mix of profession and making you feel like you are best friends. She took my friends allergy very seriously without making us feel uncomfortable, but definitely safe and heard. Cocktails were very aesthetically pleasing, food was amazing, and dessert was so cute and yummy! Bathrooms are also note worthy, there are a bunch of individual bathrooms, which adds to the comfort factor. We will definitely be back here!!! Thank you for making our first experience here delightful Becca!!

This was the best food out we have had since Covid. We had a reservation and waited less then 2 minutes to be seated. Service was great! The bread was warm and fresh. I ordered the espresso martini, which was delicious, my husband ordered the house old fashioned which he also thought was tasty. For meals, we ordered the cod and the steak. The cod was in the top 5 I've ever had, but mostly because the Maryland crab risotto it rested on was fantastic! The steak was perfectly prepared, it seemed to be missing a jus or something on the side, it was also played separately from the potatoes and vegetables. Overall, it was on the expensive side, but with inflation and actual fantastic service it was worth it!

I have been a few times, hoping it would get better. It just isn't great, barely average food. The execution on dishes is not good. The apps were much better than the main dishes. Better upscale Italian options in the area.

OKAY. Unpopular review here. Before anyone kills me I'm giving 3 out of 5 stars for an A-OK. The four of us dined last weekend and were expecting to be absolutely blown away seeing all the great reviews. However, our experience fell a little short. Working in the industry the space is absolutely beautiful and the staff is AWESOME. Great service and atmosphere, the space is truly beautiful. Everyone was so attentive and friendly. The reason why I've knocked a few stars is the food just didn't blow us away. We also felt EXTREMELY rushed. Im talking about within maybe 8-10 minutes of getting our drinks we got our meals. Two chicken parm, a gnocchi, and a burrata salad. All of us agreed it was just A-OK. The food tasted somewhat bland and that it was prepared to go on the fly. Again, totally understandable seeing as we are in the middle of a pandemic and things are a little different right now. We weren't even seated for a half an hour and had our drinks and food. Blah. For the price we felt a little let down. Seemed as though they were trying to turn the table quick even though we were seated at 730ish and had everything by 8. Boo. Again, seemed a little chaotic and they are on the new side adjusting to the "new norm". I will ALWAYS support local and you should too! Maybe they were just having an off night but we left asking each-other if we would come back, we all kinda shrugged. Eager to give the original location a try!

Attended a dinner with a group from work on a weekday evening. The restaurant wasn't crowded and we were seated promptly. Unfortunately, the wait for the food was exceptionally long. Even though the the portions were generous, the overall flavors were just so so, not special at all. My chicken piccata and side pasta was very watery with way too much garlic. Maybe it was an off night, but this was my first visit and I was very underwhelmed.

Chicken parm in a friolater? I've been here several times and have been impressed with the food and ambiance. My experience tonight was disappointing. Dreadful music played way too loud. My server was kind and we laughed together about how bad the music was. Come on Eileen?! Yikes. I've made fun of friends for ordering chicken parm in a nice restaurant but I was feeling it and figured it would be perfect at this high-end Italian establishment. The cutlet was dropped in the friolater and tasted like a chicken puck from a school cafeteria. I ate some and pushed it away. The gentleman server inquired if all was good and I let him know it was a disaster. The awful loud music and my chicken puck made for an unpleasant dinner. He was gracious. The floor manager came over and was short with me and rude. She spoke over me. She offered a free dessert which I passed on. The check came and the server noted a discount. I expected the parm to be removed. Nope. $6 employee discount. I've visited at least 6 times in the last 8 weeks. I won't be back.

Excellent Italian restaurant in the heart of downtown Lynn. Beautiful and delicious food!
