Rosetto in Eastbourne

Visited with Friends for dinner that's was very disappointing. Two of us ordered the prawn cocktail special for a starter one plate had 3 prawns and the other two prawns they sat on some salmon mousse with a few salad leafs the other two starters were ok. The mains where three was passable but nothing for what's being charged and one friend had the chicken escalope with pasta that was extremely disappointing, the escalope was dried out and tough that was awful. The response by member of staff was poor when I suggested they knock this off the bill that was refused. I will say that the complaint about the lack of Prawns and the dried out chicken was at the end of the meal were we should have said something during the meal. All in all for a £50.00 a head meal that included a bottle of house wine and an over charged bottle of prosecco it was very disappointing. Folks there are other Italian restaurants within 10 minutes walk that are better and cheaper.

Nice atmosphere, lovely staff, as a vegetarian we had amazing choices. My friends had a wonderful tagliatelle with crab followed by a traditional tiramisu. I had the most amazing crepe cannelloni florentina followed by a lemon cheesecake. The cocktails was so tasty and refreshing. The food was amazing. Will come back for sure!

Having been coming here for years and it is still the go to place for an evening meal out. Went on a packed Saturday night and everything was as faultless as always. Amazing food and attentive front staff. Will be visiting for many years to come!

What a fab little find, very busy with tables booked but the lovely lady found us a table downstairs. We had calamari for starters which was lovely, also mushroom bruschetta, one of the best I have had. Mains carbonara for me which I could have licked the plate clean, other half had calzone which portion size was massive. Very much enjoyed. I highly recommend a visit especially if you are planning to go to the theatre as it’s across the road. We will defo be back. Staff were the loveliest team and very friendly. Thanks

I had the lemon bass fillets off the specials menu. It was divine. Glad to see there were gluten free options too. Would deffo eat here again if we came back to the area. There were 3 of us dining. 2 drinks each. £90

Spag bol tasteless....in fact a dolmio sauce would probably taste better ...al forno better as well... Didn't hang about...

Good service. We got pizzas to take away. Not that great, quite flavourless.

Superb food and good service. We ate there on a Saturday night pre-theatre. You could choose from I'm a pre-theatre set menu or full a la carte. My wife had an excellent sea-bass and I had a delicious creamy mushroom and chicken risotto. Highly recommended.

Delightful place, fast service and good food. Open when other places weren't.

We were staying nearby for one night and hadn’t booked anywhere for dinner so took a stroll. This lovely restaurant was busy and so we chanced a table for two. I’m so glad we did! The all women team made us feel so welcome. The specials were varied and we both went for the prawn cocktail - it was the best I’ve ever had! Mains were absolutely delicious too and I wish we’d had room for desserts! I would return in a heartbeat the next time we are in Eastbourne - this restaurant was one of the highlights of our rare night away.

Myself and my wife visited Rosetto on a whim yesterday to celebrate her birthday and I have to say it was utterly fantastic. The atmosphere was good, the service superb and the food absolutely excellent. The cheeky snifter with coffee was a lovely touch. We loved it and will certainly be back. Thank you!

We popped in on a quiet Thursday evening. What a gem. The lovely waitress and food was exquisite. The best lasagne I've ever had. We will definitely return and highly recommend the restaurant. !!

An absolute gem. Waitress and food were superb. Best lasagne ever. Would highly recommend and will definitely be returning!!

The food was delicious and very tasty, they have a good service as well . Definitely I will come back

I last posted a review 2 years ago, scoring a 5. We have been back a number of times travelling from another county to eat here. However tonight's experience was at the other end of the ratings. Not sure what has happened but my fish was cold, it went back to the kitchen coming back not much warmer. My husband had nearly finished his meal which was meant to be a celebrity evening. We decided to call it a day and didnt stay for dessert. The staff were ok, but not massively engaging and we felt they were going through the motions with a disingenuous apology. Time to bring this chapter to a close, a once great restaurant but unfortunately no longer.

Absolutely wonderful meal! Beautiful fresh pizza with lots of fresh vegetables and creamy garlic and mushroom pasta with fresh garlic bread. Delightful 😍🇮🇹 Great service, nothing too much trouble for a vegan and vegetarian💚highly recommend you visit

This was my first visit. Though friends have been telling me to go for ages. First as you walked in the door there was a real buzz. Was full and the atmosphere was great. The food was excellent. A Prawn Cocktail. But not the old 70s one. Was superb. Followed by Tagliatelle and crab. Dressed in the shell with garlic. Quite delicious dessert well I’ll have to go back. I was to full from the first two courses. Even though this lovely restaurant was full the service was very good. I will return highly recommend.

A very nice restaurant, good food but expensive for what it is. The most over priced drinks ever.

We have been here a couple of times before and there has always been consistency in the high standard of food and service. Prawn cocktail was like I had never had before with a delicious Salmon mousse to set off the prawns. Cannelloni with veal was delicious as was the steak. Whilst we were there the staff were making an anniversary couples evening extra special with confetti and decorations on their table. They go the extra mile. We have got to know Jess and she is always there with a smile and excellent suggestion's for food. Always a good evening. Thank you Rosetto!

Always beautiful, authentic Italian food served by the most lovely team.

My wife and i popped in for a meal and will be going back. Great service and lovely food. My wife loves italian food and she thought this was one of the best she had ever had. I'm a bit of an all round eater but loved the meal and the place. Thanks to everyone there.

We stumbled upon the restaurant whilst walking to our hotel. The staff were super friendly and really accommodating with dietary requirements from gluten free to vegan. All their food is made fresh in their kitchen and tasted amazing. The restaurant had a lovely atmosphere and would really recommend visiting

Have been here before whilst on our annual trip to Eastbourne for the pantomime . Always excellent service and fabulous food.

A cosy little restaurant with a lovely ambience, very good food and service. The blackboard starter of whitebait was quite large and a little too much battered but tasty. The smiling waitress suggested a small plate of spaghetti with clams to follow which was perfect and delicious.

Food excellent, all three courses. First time visit and will definitely return. Service friendly and prompt.

Arrived having made a booking but they couldn't find our reservation. Eventually gave us a table but was rushed due to other diners going to the theatre. Spoilt what should have been a nice evening

We had a fantastic meal at Rosetto before attending an event at a local hotel. The staff were extremely welcoming and friendly throughout our visit, and nothing was too much trouble for them. The food is all fresh and cooked to order, which is really evident in both the quality and presentation. This really is a hidden gem of a restaurant in Eastbourne, and we will certainly return now we have found it.

Excellent food! Nice tasty seabass and as a starter cozze al pomadore, nice lasagne all just perfect!! The Negroni had prosecco, which is also nice! A Negroni can have that…otherwise it is too ginny anyway

Nice place, great food. Highly recommended.

Nice local Italian big portions for the price , decent quality food for the area. Restaurant and facilities were clean.

Great tasting home cooked Italian food - the restaurant is really cosy and staff were really welcoming.

Really enjoyed the food here and staff went the extra mile to serve a vegan dessert.

Needed something to eat before rod Stewart tribute on Saturday.. they got us seated quickly in doors and food was brilliant friendly staff and quick service

This cozy Italian restaurant has left the best impressions! Hospitable hosts, delicious dishes, beautiful presentation…I recommend to everyone! Can’t wait to return and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone looking for somewhere to eat in.

Excellent food, reasonable price in a nice setting, always enjoy returning here. It is the best Italian in the street.

We went as a walk in. Staff were not the usual friendly kind ive come across in the numerous italians ive been to before. Starter was adequate. Mains passable considering we both ordered one of the more expensive offerings, don't order garlic bread if more than one person wants some as you get 2 slices. The desserts were extremely disappointing....The cream is squirty cream and you get the size of a 50p and the tiramasou was the worst I've ever had. We had a bottle of pinot which was cheap and disappointing. There are absolutely loads of Italian restaurants in Eastbourne so go elsewhere.

Delicious real Italian entrees. Good service as well.

The restaurant was able to accommodate us on late notice. Upon arrival at this establishment, waiters and waitresses were friendly apart from one, who seemed to take a disliking to us. Very unfriendly, and despite us ordering one of the starters as a main meal, they only gave us two small pieces of bread and subsequently charged us for more bread. The tagliatelle special was watery and had no flavour. Waiter put the plates down without asking which meal was whose. Despite being an authentic Italian restaurant, we were not offered parmesan with our pasta mains.

Thank you for the beautiful evening,Spiros,great hospitality from the Greek guy,and everyone else,tasty foods,great atmosphere. I will see you soon again.

We visit Eastbourne every year with our grandson and we just love eating here the food is brilliant and so are the staff

Spirits friendly and helpful food very good went back 3 night on the trot 👍👍

Had a really lovely meal here...our dishes were cooked perfect with so much flavour..especially my arriabita! Great atmosphere sitting outside and they made a fuss over my daughter who loved her carbonara and then her ice cream! Our lattes after our meal were perfect too! Thank you ! Will definitely come back!

Nice little Italian restaurant in Eastbourne food good reasonably priced

A really lovely little Italian restaurant with fantastic service! :)

Had dinner here this week. Excellent service, excellent food, decent wine and a great atmosphere - what more can you want! Thoroughly recommended

The young lady that servied us was not very good english wasnt very good

Nice local Italian restaurant, nice outside patio

I didn't enjoy the food. It is overpriced for the quality you get. I had seafood spaghetti. The mussels were dry. I came on a busy day (the airshow) and I was told that it was extremely busy so I shouldn't expect any better!

We came at a BUSY time for the Restaurant. The Eastbourne Airshow. We were sat outside because we were told that there were no tables inside. Only to watch the next group come in and be offered a table inside because someone had finished with the table inside (we know that they did not have a reservation) . We asked why we couldn't have the table inside instead and was met with confrontation from the staff. Then, after getting a table indoors after a LONG wait, we ordered our food and was disappointed. The margharita pizza we ordered came as a meat and olive pizza and when we asked we were responded with a question of 'so what, you don't want this one?' No we want what we ordered please. The mussels we ordered were dry and not cooked properly and in the end left uneaten. One prawn in the seafood only. The steak was JUST ok, but not worth the price they were asking, as well as the £2 surcharge for sauce. Overall, we would not come back, nor could we recommend this to dine in.

Had a lovely meal staff very friendly and helpful would recommend

Very rushed, standard food , didnt enjoy it, didnt appear homemade, and service awful, shame, wouldnt return

Fabulous place, meals & staff are exceptional

*ALLERGIES REVIEW* this place is fantastic for nut allergy service! Very knowledgeable, educated & extremely conscientious. Knew ingredients but also double checked & also showed us packaging for extra piece of mind. Going the extra mile which makes us allergy parents, very happy. Food is incredible, so much so that we went back again the night after. Thank you for being amazing, we wish more restaurants were like you.

Amazing service & very tasty, fresh food. Nothing seem’s too much for any of the staff. We have eaten here several time’s and are always very, very satisfied and full. Their profiteroles are to die for!! You won’t be disappointed dining in this family run restaurant.

Had two wonderful meals on 27/7/23 and 30/7/23 .The food and service is fantastic would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone else who is visiting Eastbourne.

Met friends here for dinner and a catch up, what can i say ? all of the good reviews are quite right. Great service lovely food , close to the theatre and a short walk to the seafront Will definately visit again.

My wife, myself and our best friend visited this restaurant last night for the first time and were beyond impressed with the food and the service. We all chose the three course pre theatre dinner offer. My wife is a Coeliac and they catered for her dietary requirements very well with GF pasta. Every course was absolutely delicious, beautiful flavours and well presented. Staff were friendly and attentive. This is a restaurant we have been meaning to try for some time and will definitely return in the not too distant future. Brilliant all round. We can’t praise the flavours of the food enough, thank you! Don’t visit this restaurant unless you LOVE amazing Italian food!!!

Good food at fair prices. Great service and pleasant atmosphere.

Had a fabulous dinner here, the staff were friendly, attentive and made sure everything was lovely. Food was delicious and service was spot on. Cosy atmosphere, lots of choice and looking forward to going back to try other things on the menu

We dinned twice at the restaurant last week, the staff were friendly, efficient and the food well worth paying for, the portions were large and as we were the last ones in, the staff shared there water melon with us! The whole place had a family feel to it with children occasionally appearing from down stairs.

Absolutely 💯 awesome. Food & choice 10/10 Service 10/10 Staff 20/10..... My favourite Eastbourne Restaurant ❤️

Love this place. Ideal venue for a pre-theatre meal. Food great at any time. Staff excellent. Prices good. Pasta and pizza good.

Fantastic restaurant, excellent food, friendly staff and owners

Good food in a family restaurant.

Brilliant food, service and excellent value for money. The waiters were friendly and everyone said how tasty their food was. Highly recommended.

Family run business to such a high standard, so an immediate choice for a birthday with friends. Friendly welcome as always, attentive polite service and well paced. Whitebait starter was perfection and the main Pollo Crema Funghi superb. Nice to see Malbec on the wine list and classic cocktails. A great evening, enjoyed by all. Highly recommend.

Service and food excellent. The team are attentive and service is excellent. Ada the owner also a wonderful nurse at EGH has the highest standards.

Lovely friendly restaurant. Food really good. Paid extraordinary attention to our many allergies. Visited twice during our visit to Eastbourne.

Superb staff, delicious food and a great evening had by all. I had the chicken Milanese, succulent chicken and wonderful pasta, followed by panne cotta with mango and raspberry coulis, nice touch to have 2 fruity flavours that went well with the creamy desert. Staff...

Fabulous restaurant. Food is delicious. Staff are very welcoming warm and friendly. I have visited this restaurant several times with my husnand, Also with a larger group party and at all times service and food both excellent. Cant wait to go there again.

A lovely Italian restaurant, super friendly service, the pizza is so thin & crisp & authentic, everything on the menu is good. Great calamari also! 5 star.

What a lovely friendly Italian Restaurant. Very accommodating . All the staff were friendly and went above and beyond to make our special family meal fantastic. Would recommend this beautifully situated restaurant which is so close to the Eastbourne seafront and theatres . We will...

We were three individuals who visited Rosetto restaurant for a meal. The staff was friendly, and there was a pleasant ambiance in the establishment. We had the quattro stagioni pizza, pepperoni pizza, and lasagne. We were all extremely satisfied with the food and the service. I highly recommend Rosetto's!

booked a week before and they got our numbers wrong - only 1 out so no big shakes but they seemed quite accusatory. Seemed irritated that we didn't order food almost immediately Bruschetta with mozzarella came without mozzarella Didn't tell us about any specials that...

The food was adequate but the service proved to be surly and very disappointing.Given the choice of Italian restaurants in Eastbourne pass on this one!

This great restuarant takes me back to when you visted Italians and the staff treated you as their friends and the food was lovely and great value . Cant recommend highly enough.

We visited with a table of 5 for early dinner. Very busy restaurant but the service was still good. Staff are friendly helpful. We all had different dishes, 3 pasta and 1 chicken and grilled veg. All really tasty. Save room for the profiteroles they...

I visited this restaurant & was not happy with the way we were greeted. Made a telephone reservation two weeks ago & seemed no record in the book!! We had our drinks & main course which was nice. However we got left with our dirty...

My fav Italian restaurant when i m in town… love their special lamb and veal.. Def worth a visit…

The best pizza in Eastbourne! Suitable for vegans and intolerance. The place is beautiful and the waitress (Jessica) super nice! I will be back soon!

Avoid this place, got one Earl Grey tea which the waiter was confused about one Vodka and coke single and charged £13 what a joke

Delicious pasta, super friendly waiters

Nous avons attendus mon fils et moi 5 minutes, 10 minutes à l'entrée, sur la terrasse pour être placé. Les...

Probably the best food in town.

Only popped there for drinks but helpful service and supplied water for the dogs

Good hot ! food, quick service albeit a little too loud. Worth visiting though.

Food excellent, staff courteous and swift.

Very good restaurant for pre theatre menu, quick service, good choice on all menu's staff on the ball, we enjoy our visit.

Really magnificent lasagna. Think it was the best we'd ever had.

Excellent food and friendly service in this family run restaurant close to the seafront and the Towner Gallery.

Met friends here, only two other people in the restaurant. Staff though polite, rushed us through meal, brought the bill before we asked for it and stood with the door open before we had even paid the bill. Wont go back.

Excellent food. The decor has a lovely Italian vibe. It's a real gem, and I highly recommend you visit. Staff we're friendly, attentive, and quick. Ensure you have a bottle of chianti to keep the whole experience authentic.

The food and service were fantastic

We chose this restaurant as we'd had two bad experiences at another Italian restaurant in Eastbourne. We were not disappointed we really enjoyed the three visits we made for our evening meal. The staff were a joy, pleasant, helpful, welcoming and caring. The foo was...

Une excellent repas entouré d’un personnel attentionné ! Je recommande +++ … Nous reviendrons 😊👌 Merci

Fantastic food and service! Delicious mussels followed by seafood risotto and tirimisu. Can't fault it. Superb evening.

First time here and we throughly enjoyed it food was delicious would definitely go again.

Great dinning experience for a birthday meal. Fresh food, great menu and friendly staff. Highly recommended
