Food Quality
Pros:
"The pizza is fantastic and the Roman style pizza is super crispy, light and delicious."
"The Roman style dough is very thin and light, making the pizza feel less filling and bloated."
"The absolute best calzone I've EVER had, crusty and crisp on the outside and meltingly gooey inside."
"Finally the real Italian pizza in Stoke Newington, tastes like heaven and highly digestible."
"The pizza is thin, and crispy unlike the also good but chewier classic Neapolitan pizza found everywhere in London."
Cons:
"Both pizzas turned up cold and unedible, with the 'dessert' pizza having hardly any base to it and burnt."
"The garlic bread was so thick and not cooked well, the pasta was disappointing and my friend wasn't happy about his pasta."
"The truffle pastas were disappointing, soggy noodles soaked in a watery sauce."
"I ordered a capricossa, and the mushrooms tasted and looked like they were tinned."
"Pizzas are very average, the base of the pizza is extremely thin."
Service Quality
Pros:
"The service is excellent as well, and the spot is lovely."
"Service professional and friendly, the staff were extremely attentive."
"Customer service is absolutely amazing."
"Service and atmosphere are fantastic with a lot of care and passion."
"Staff were really friendly, super thoughtful and just so much fun."
Cons:
"Service was poor, very slow, one of two starters forgotten, then mains forgotten and needed to be reordered."
"The waitress spent an exorbitant amount of time in the kitchen, ignoring my attempts to get her attention for condiments and the bill."
"Service was not attentive, staff occupied a table in the dining room, indulging in their own meals and engrossed in their phones."
"The staff was so lovely that I didn't want to complain in person. But the meal was very not good."
"Rider had to wait ages at restaurant and when the food arrived, the starter was missing, the pizzas were lukewarm."
Ambience and Location
Pros:
"Lovely place, amazing hospitality from the owners and great choice of thin dough pizza and fresh homemade pasta."
"The garden is cosy and nicely decorated, super friendly staff and dog friendly too."
"A warm, authentic Italian restaurant on Stoke Newington High Street."
"It's pretty new (opened in lockdown), so is an underrated gem in Stokey!"
"This charming, authentic, Italian family-owned restaurant is perfect for romantic dates, or family/friend get-togethers."
Cons:
"Ambience was poor, a lady kept wandering around taking photos of the place with her smartphone, made for an awkward experience."
"Sat next to the window which was our choice, however, there was a cold breeze coming through."
"The place was matching perfectly with the food, I really got a feeling that I was back in Italy because of all the old fashioned and simple luxury that La Rosetta had."
"The backyard is great and I'm sure non gluten free/vegan options must be great."
"It was a lovely place, I really enjoyed the moment with my fiancè, very romantic and cosy."
Value for Money
Pros:
"Very reasonably priced. Wine, beer and three pizzas was less than £49."
"The portions are very generous and the flavours are great."
"The price is great and above all the service is excellent!"
"Best pizzas in Stokey! The pizzas were amazing - light, Romana-style and huge. Very friendly service and lovely atmosphere."
"Everything was perfect from start to finish - even calling to book was a delight!"
Cons:
"The prices were a bit higher comparing with the pasta and the service that we had!"
"To pay £44 for a meal devoid of alcohol and only one main course in exchange for such disappointment is simply unacceptable."
"£6.50 for a starter of olives and £3.80 for a soft drink is taking the piss. They've got greedy and priced themselves too high for what they are."
"The staff were so lovely and welcoming. Food was fantastic and would definitely visit again! Thank you for the limoncello and the meloncello - they were delicious ☺️"
"It was a lovely place, I really enjoyed the moment with my fiancè, very romantic and cosy, the food was delicious, myself i hade Tortelloni with ricotta cheese and it was amazing, will surely go back:)"
