Quite a good Italian restaurant with a deli shop at the front. The pasta I had was good but slightly on the salty side. The tiramisu was great though, with a very strong and 'bitter' coffee taste, in a good way.

Lovely place atmosphere is good nice vibes good music good staff nothing wrong with the food no faults. Just not blown away by the food was all a bit standard price could not really complain about it for the times we are living in not much on the menu option wise I would go back with kids for a pizza or something but date night was a bit flat if you fancy something special then I would go somewhere else more of a family lunch place then date night once again nothing wrong with the food and the staff was lovely

Good honest classics, but excellently cooked with fresh ingredients. Always a "buzzy" atmosphere from the down to earth clientele. Occasionally a victim of their own success in that when really busy service can slip a little. If you want fancy dishes with odd ingredients and tiny portions to prod while you pose, go elsewhere !

I have been fan of Rossella since the restaurant first arrived in Gospel Oak and what keeps me coming back is the quality of the food, the warm atmosphere, and friendly service. I am always made to feel welcome, which is why I bring my friends from time to time and, in more recent times, my wife. The pizzas are fantastic and there are also supreme versions of typical Italian dishes. You can sometimes think you ‘know’ pasta and risotto dishes from years of exposure - I recommend visiting Rossella to test that notion. There are, of course, other Italian dishes too, which you may not have tried before. The menu contains new items that delight and is periodically updated. The drinks also provide a perfect complement to your meal. I favour a red wine but there are options to suit all palettes, including soft drinks. Another fine feature is its well-appointed deli counter and range of Italian products, many of which are homemade. We will often take something home with us. My wife recently celebrated her birthday at Rossella and was serenaded by the staff as her dessert was delivered to the table. It was a very nice and warmly received gesture. My wife and I cannot wait for our next visit. https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/ShowUserReviews-g186338-d3172658-r936595038-Rossella-London_England.html#

Rosella is a lovely neighbourhood restaurant. The food is delicious, and the 'family wine' is a great accompaniment. Worth noting that the acoustics are great, despite a semi-open kitchen. The front of house team are welcoming and helpful, and the restaurant is always full of locals. It's also perfectly located for a quick bowl of pasta before a gig at the Forum.

Loved this restaurant. Went to celebrate my graduation and it was the perfect place. All of the food and drinks were incredible and there was something for everyone (including the vegetarian in the family). Each course was delicious and well presented. The restaurant itself had a lovely feel and the staff were so nice and helpful. When we arrived, we were asked of the special occasion and at the end of the meal, they delivered a complimentary gelato with a congratulations message which was a lovely personal touch that made my day. I will definitely return in the future as the staff and the food made it the perfect evening.

Having travelled around the world to many destinations, and having eaten one of my favourite pasta dishes, spaghetti alla vongole everywhere I go. I was very surprised that the best I've ever eaten was here. Rossella! Who knew it was only down the road from me. I loved the chilled out atmosphere you'll find on a weekday, especially having booked for 8pm on a weekday. The service was 10/10. The staff are very attentive, and even while they are working in their own stations, they are very quick to notice when you might need something, and assist you quite quickly. The lighting is cosy, allowing the time you spend with a loved one to be intimate. Thank you Rossella for your great service! We shall be returning again.

We had a delightful time on my birthday at the restaurant. The atmosphere was lively on a busy Saturday night, and we enjoyed the delicious food. Although we had to wait a bit for our reserved table, it was understandable given the crowd. However, the service was a bit chaotic with four waiters assisting us. Drinks arrived after the starters, and my brother had to request sparkling water three times. Unfortunately, the promised free limoncelo from the Open Table reservation was not offered. Despite these hiccups, we still relished our experience and would consider dining there again, hoping for improved service coordination.

Rossella is one of those establishments you can take anyone to, your partner, parents, friend or kids. It’s so welcoming and all encompassing, offering up traditional Italian food to a high standard which doesn’t break the bank. We’d highly recommend the Bruschetta, Aubergine Parmigiana, Carbonara and Tiramisu for a guaranteed good time at Rossella, but you can’t go wrong with the rest of their menu! Pictured is their Burrata with Parma Ham, Bruschetta, Aubergine Parmigiana, Spaghetti Carbonara, and Scoglio, Tiramisu and Canoli.

Sadly this beautiful restaurant has lost its magic in my opinion. We have enjoyed so many wonderful evenings here over the years with our friends & family so wanted a special Xmas reunion so booked a table for 7. The food is still tasty & the menu almost unchanged but the service was functional & cold. No warmth nor interest from most of the staff who frequently removed a plate or glass before we had finished. No Christmas cheer nor the shot of Limoncella offered as in times gone by.
