Rosso Vino

So-so

Quite overprice for this

Soup

Not a good spinach and ricotta filling but a good one is hard to find. Pasta is alright, prawns were the crystal kind but still edible, and the cream sauce was decent even tho it's not particularly aromatic.

Overall it's not bad, but it's not the best version of this dish, not by far

Decent crab pasta, flavour was passable but the capellini was v soft, like Taiwanese vermicelli

The penne inside wasn't particularly good but it's quite a decent minestrone, the tomato taste was strong. But at almost 20 bucks you do expect it to be of a certain quality

A terrible mistake. The bread sucks, and there's not much garlic flavour either. Surprisingly there's smokiness from the grill

Dropped by Rosso Vino after hearing good reviews of this Italian restaurant 🇮🇹 along Robertson Quay.

Had high hopes on their Burrata Pizza ($32++) 🍕 but it fell short of expectations. While the pizza dough was chewy (I suppose they are handstretched), it was a little underbaked in my opinion 🫠. Definitely would have preferred more char 🔥 to render that exterior crisp. Burrata was milky & creamy 🤍 but this rendition seems a little too watery?
.
Their Calamari ($18++) was not bad 🦑, light batter coating springy squid rings.

𝗠𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗵 𝗶𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝗶𝗺𝗼. Love how the pasta is moist but not drenched in sweet, lobster bisque, without tasting too fishy as well. Angel hair was well done, it was al dente and the portion is hugeeee. Has bits of sweet crab meat. 

not a big fan of chocolate but this is quality. Slightly dry crust on the outside contrasting well with the moist interiors, and chocolate was rich and not too sweet. 𝗚𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝘀𝘂𝗽𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺. 𝟭𝟬/𝟭𝟬 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗼𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗮𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻

Cold, creamy burrata which was enjoyable but the prosciutto texture was a little too waxy for me.

For starters, we were thoroughly impressed with the Zuppa di Mare ($22), a mixed seafood soup that has prawns, calamari, clams, and mussels, and served with a toasted bread. The soup was appetizing and flavourful, perfect to whet your appetite for the mains. We didn’t waste a single drop of the soup and ordered more of the grilled bread with garlic butter to mop up all of it.

For the mains, we shared the Fettucine Bolognese ($25), a homemade pasta with slow-cooked minced beef sauce with Parmesan cheese and the Penne al Tartufo e Funghi Porcini ($28), a highly recommended pasta dish of penne cooked in a rich and aromatic truffle cream sauce with porcini mushrooms. If you are there for a date night or as a group gathering, it will be great to order a few pastas to share so that you can try most of the flavours. When you see a dish with the restaurant’s name on it, it is an indication that it is something that you should try, and that is exactly what we got with the Calzone Rosso Vino ($30), a folded pizza stuffed with tomato sauce, mozzarella, pork ham and mushrooms. This is not like your typical pizza but one with a doughy consistency that will fill you up quick.

For dessert, it has to be the Tiramisu ($17), a traditional Italian dessert made with ladyfingers’ biscuits, layered with mascarpone cheese, and soaked in espresso coffee. A decadent finish to the meal before washing it all down with the Spritz Cocktail ($16), concocted with Aperol, prosecco, soda water and finished with an orange wedge.

Loved this classic pasta, which held bright vegetal sweet savoury flavour from the rich bolognese ragu sauce.
.
The handmade fettucine pasta noodles are flat and wide, with a slight chew to texture, picking up the gravy so well. The bolognese ragu features fresh tomato and tender minced beef in generous portions, slow-cooked over hours till it's rich and thick. Yum.
