We were really looking forward to trying Rosso and saved it for a special occasion. Unfortunately, it did not meet our expectations.. The food was average. The quality of ingredients was good, i.e., the fresh bread and pasta. Personally, we found the chicken tasted hard, and the lamb cutlet was awful. It had no flavour and didn't taste nice. The steak was generally nice and cooked well, which accompanied the peppercorn sauce. I didn't feel like the price point reflected the taste of the food. The desserts, however, were great and were thoroughly enjoyed! The atmosphere was pleasant. Though it was quite cold inside, which was understandable due to the large venue. It was clean and pleasant. The service was definitely a letdown. Our server did not smile and was not pleasant. They didn't make any sort of conversation, even when asked about halal options, it was one word answers - like we were so inconvenient for asking them questions about the menu instead of just ordering. We haven't really had a lot of Italian food before, so a lot of the items were new to us, and we were offered no explanation or assistance. We thought maybe the server was tired and excused it, however, literally 15 minutes later another table was seated directly next to us and the server went above and beyond to talk to them about the menu options, good drink accompaniments and general chitchat. We felt a little upset as our initial experience had already dampened the evening on what was a special occasion for us. We are generally very friendly people and were in no way rude to the server that warranted that type of behaviour. Whenever our next item of food was brought, it was brought in silence, and not even a simple "enjoy your food" was said.

Full bellies and banging headaches! Food was absolutely divine as you'd expect for the price. The staff were all relatively helpful and attentive given how busy it was. The restaurant itself is beautiful, but please, someone sack the DJ! Given it's such a beautiful place for fine dining, why on Earth have you turned it into a nightclub?! We could barely hear ourselves talk and think, and it was not pleasant eating to such loud music. We won't be returning for this reason which is a shame as the food was wonderful.

Really great experience All the food was delicious and staff was always around ready to take drink and food orders even though the place was packed. Would definitely recommend to others however with great food and service comes a bill to match, but definitely worth it as a treat.

Xmas decor so dreamy. Nice staff even though the waiter said there was no candles available for my husbands cake that he brought out however 5 minutes later seen other waiters bring out candles with complimentary cakes for other guests. Apart from that nice food especially calamari & steak was cooked to perfection. decent ambiance
