I was taken here by my partner for my birthday dinner. We've actually been meaning to go for a couple of years but only now have got round to it. The wait was worth it. It was a Thursday evening and relatively quiet, but a nice atmosphere - the dining room is nicely decorated, catering for groups of different sizes, nicely lit and with period posters of Sicily around the walls. The eponymous chef says she wants to bring the food of Sicily to her restaurant and was inspired by the meals her grandmother cooked. As such the menu is not innovative or adventurous, but brings an authentic taste of Sicilian dishes. My partner started with calamari, which was nicely fried and flavoursome; I had fried haloumi, also very pleasant. We both had beef ragu to follow, which was tasty, well cooked and very filling! The big question was, did it taste like something our Italian mother or grandmother (if we had one) would serve up at home - well, yes, it did, so Rosanna is meeting her goal! A nice surprise was that, as it was by birthday, I was offered tiramisu on the house - and lovely it was too, delicate and very light. The wine list was the length one might expect at a small restaurant but was good quality, which is far more important than quantity. The waiter (Ayann?) was friendly, attentive and efficient. My only (very slight) suggestion for an improvement would be linen, rather than paper, napkins. My partner and I have enjoyed two lovely holidays in Sicily in recent years, and this was a very pleasant way to remind ourselves of this wonderful island. We will definitely not be waiting two years to go back to Rosanna's!

We visited Berkhamsted to take a look around the Home & Colonial antique and interiors store. A store over 5 levels with "Black Goo" located on the very top floor. It is a great cafe / coffee house with superb decor and ambiance. We just had afternoon coffee (lattes) and cake, but the afternoon teas looked amazing!! Our coffee's were great and the White Chocolate Biscotti blondie that I had was very good. My latte was £3 and the cake was £3.50 Service was friendly and efficient and it all made for a very enjoyable experience. Would love to visit again one day.

A nicely decorated and chilled place. The lady on the till was very friendly. Definitely somewhere to go for drink in between shopping.

I was very underwhelmed. The veggie breakfast had a quorn sausage that seemed to have been microwaved, the tomatoes had be whispered to by a grill and the hashbrowns were burnt on the outside and greasy and cold in the middle. We waited 50 minutes for our food and it all came out at different times. Three of ordered the same dish but they all came out differently. Honestly, it really really wasn't worth the money. I genuinely hate leaving bad reviews, but I wouldn't recommend this overpriced place to anyone. There's much better places in Berko.

Love this cafe. It’s very convenient for me to visit after school drop offs. Very helpful friendly staff. Sometimes they have special offers for scones so I get coffee and scone for £4 which is great. If there is no special offer then I just get a coffee. Good selection of pastries but not a good selection of cakes. The hot food is all prepacked so I would never try it as it can never be good. I like going to cafes that prepare fresh food (affordable) and nice breakfast which you can’t really find in this Waitrose cafe unfortunately. But I love this cafe for my coffee stops.

Bought a Sourdough farmhouse - or at least that is what I asked for and payed for! £3.95. IF it is Sourdough it is rubbish! But I think I was charged Sourdough price for normal farmhouse. We buy Sourdough all the time wherever we go - so we know it when we see and taste it Genuine mistake or just careless or.......? Just make sure you get what you have paid for......... Left a nasty taste in our mouth - see what I did there!
