Our Reviews

The food, staff and camaraderie was phenomenal.

On Saturday, we hosted my daughter’s bridal shower at Rosebud Lemont, and I cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience.From the very beginning, Matt was absolutely incredible to work with. Over the course of several months of planning, he was responsive, accommodating, never once said no to any of my requests, and made time for every question I had. His professionalism, patience, and kindness made the entire planning process smooth and completely stress-free.On the day of the event, we were greeted by an extraordinary team who truly dedicated themselves to making this a perfect day for my daughter and our family. A special thank you to Matt, Stephanie, Julio, Devon, and Andre for going above and beyond in every way—making sure every detail was in place, setting up early with us, and consistently checking in to make sure the bride and I as the host were okay. The staff was incredibly attentive to every guest, always asking if they needed anything and making sure everyone felt comfortable and cared for. Everything came together flawlessly, the timing of the event was perfect, and the food was absolutely unbelievable—I received so many compliments from guests on both the impeccable service and the best Italian food they’ve ever had. A big thank you to the Chef and his team.It’s clear that ownership has cultivated something extraordinary here. Hiring a team that treats every guest with such warmth and dedication shows a commitment to creating experiences that are unforgettable.This will be a day I will never forget. They didn’t just host an event—they gave my daughter the shower of her dreams. Every moment was meaningful, beautiful, and filled with love. I am forever grateful to the entire team for making it so incredibly special.Without a doubt, this was the best experience I have ever had hosting an event, and I would recommend Rosebud Lemont wholeheartedly to anyone looking for something truly extraordinary.

Had a super great experience at this lovely little gem of a restaurant bar! The Maria was our stellar server. My Salmon dish and side Angel Hair w/ Meatball Vodka Sauce was delish! The live R&B Trio was a bonus! The owner/manager comped our desert out of sheer generosity. The local clientele were friendly and I danced my calories off. 👏🙌😍 I highly recommend.

Great food and even better service! 5 stars all around! I’d recommend it to anyone wanting to try!

We dined here last night, 2/28 and had a wonderful night. From the minute we walked in and greeted by the hostesses to the minute we left and the manager thanking us for coming in. The food was outstanding, probably the best of all the rosebuds Iv been to.

My wife and I had an unforgettable dining experience. From the moment we walked in, we felt genuinely welcomed by the Rosebud staff. The chef personally came out to greet us, which immediately set the tone for the evening, and made it feel special. Every dish was beautifully prepared and absolutely delicious, and the service was just as impressive - attentive, friendly, and perfectly paced. We never felt rushed. It’s rare to find a place that excels in food, service and hospitality all at once, but Rosebud truly does. We are looking forward to our next visit and highly recommend Rosebud Lemont .

Had our valentines dinner here, was our 5th time eating here, each time has been amazing!! The food, service, ambiance, and being greeted by the owner himself never disappoint. Highly recommend.

Rosebud Lemont is and always has been a favorite for me and my girlfriends. Service is always a 10, ambience is perfect just the right amount of lighting and tone, food is always delicious no matter what we choose. The owner is great, he makes sure to over see everything that is happening and always make our experience great! I can’t forget the amazing and friendly valet service they have as well. One night we were leaving the gentlemen ran to us to clean the cars off with his snow brush.100/10

I came in on Valentine’s Day and had the most amazing experience! It’s a busy holiday and they managed to get us in a few minutes before our reservation. Our server was excellent and did a great job of describing the specials. The food was phenomenal. This location is by far my favorite and overall my favorite restaurant.

I’ve been coming here the last couple months using the inKind app. 10/10 every single time. Food is fantastic. Bar service is great. My absolute favorite dishes are the stuffed mushrooms, baked ziti, 8oz filet (med rare CHARRED- this steak was life changing, I don’t know the last time I’ve felt this way about an entree), and wedge salad. My runner ups are sausage and polenta and the carbonara- my mom especially loves these dishes. I’ve never had a bad dish here honestly. The owner, Bobby, always makes the time to say hello and check in/table touch with me. The staff is so friendly; it’s so refreshing to dine at such a nice restaurant that makes you feel like family.

My favorite restaurant in Lemont for special occasions. The portions are pretty big - most of them big enough to share. My husband loves the baked ziti, and I always get some seafood pasta and never get disappointed. Last time we went, for husband’s birthday, they brought him their delicious cannoli - the shell was crumbly and crunchy, and the interior, creamy and delicious! That was also their martini night (Tuesday), and we tried their classic and the Cosmopolitan - both VERY strong and great - which was a fun discovery after my first time here when the bartender called off, the manager stepped in to make drinks and they were awful - so much that our server laughed when we mentioned our drinks might be incorrect, explaining the manager ordeal and getting all drinks off our bill. Service is really top notch, and their patio is worth a summer dinner. Can’t recommend them enough!

Our server was professional but also very personable. As was the young man who assisted her. And the baked ziti was amazing!! Love this place!!

We hosted a baby shower at The Rosebud in Lemont in January and it was absolutely fantastic!! I cannot say enough about the food, atmosphere and, especially the staff. Our guests raved about the food which was delicious. A huge shoutout to Matt Costello for all of his help from the booking to the floor planning to the actual event. He was amazing to work with and was so helpful. We also requested our favorite server Stephanie who worked so hard to make it a perfect day. I would not hesitate to host another event at The Rosebud!

Server was amazing and returned to thanks us for our tip.

Always excellent.

Our family loves Rosebud, the food is always top notch! Although we have been dining here since they opened the Lemont location, I am motivated to write this review because of the outstanding service we experienced. On a VERY busy Saturday night after Christmas, the restaurant was PACKED! The kitchen maintained high standards and the support staff was hustling. Our server, Maria, was the picture of calm. Not only did she serve a large party, she executed our service flawlessly and could be seen assisting others non stop. Always impressed with Rosebud, but particularly impressed with our visit last night. Thank you Maria!

The food is amazing .. I've had the pleasure of dining there 3 times and it's just a mouth watering experience every time .. 10/10 highly recommend..

Fantastic dining experience!!

We had a party of 12 , the service was phenomenal the food was delicious, Veal , Chicken Parmesan , Steak, Lobster prepared perfect. There was a 3 piece band playing the classics. Great time.

Service was Excellent!! Food was good as well.

We have been wanting to try Rosebud for a while and I was looking forward to a date night. She made some reservations for Saturday night and we were all set. Pulled up and they have complementary valet parking. We walked in and it was exactly what I was hoping for, very classy and swanky. It felt like a great spot for a perfect date night. We got there early, which I suggest you do so you can go grab a drink at the huge bar and take it all in. Everyone was having a good time. Families, couples, singles, they were busy and everyone was enjoying themselves and talking with others. The staff is super friendly top to bottom, very welcoming. We ordered drinks and waited for our table. Bartenders are cranking out drinks and talking with patrons. We got our table and our waiter was busy but very attentive. We decided to split a salad and the Taylor Platter, oh the Taylor Platter! Waiter says it takes about a half hour and I hope you’re hungry. We aren’t big eaters but we wanted to have a taste of all the goodies. The platter shows up and it’s big enough for a family of 4-6. It was absolutely delicious!! We barely put a dent in it. She always likes a little dessert (which isn’t little here). Somehow we managed to get some spumoni down, it was so good! We felt special and the portions are huge and not too expensive. What a great night out. Definitely on our list of great dinner date spots. Thanks Rosebud for great experience!

11/10. Food and service excellent. Meatballs and sausages are on POINT. We tried 3 pastas and they were each outstanding. Water glass was always full. Friendly staff. And the pistachio ice cream was delicious.

Wow I can't begin to say how great our wait staff was. Tamara was there on a dime and so attentive. She had such great recommendations and made sure sure the things were avaible. They constantly kept the table clean. The food... what can I not say. It was beyond wonderful. The appetizer lamb chops phenomenal. The baked clams were the best I had, but could have and should been a dozen for just under $20. That was the only disappointed thing was the cost per quantity. The portions could feed 2 people per entree. The cake, 1 was enough for 4 people. Such flavor. Great restaurant. Phenomenal food. Fabulous staff. If I could give 10 stars If would. It was our first time here and thank you.

Consistently great!

Extremely large portions, plan on sharing. Everything tastes good, just not the best at keeping water in your glass.

Our first time at this location but we have frequented the Chicago and Naperville locations. This place looks great from the outside and is even better on the inside. We arrived as they opened up on Sunday at 4:30 p.m. The hostesses were very welcoming and sat us immediately. We were brought water immediately and greeted by him and then our waitress. Everyone is so pleasant. The manager even stopped by to say hi. Our waitress kept checking on us and refilled our drinks as needed. Now on to the food. I am half Italian and grew up with a grandmother that was born near Bari, Italy. She made everything from scratch. We would pick tomatoes for the sauce. She would mix the flour and egg on the kitchen counter. She mixed the meat to make her meatballs and rolled her own braciole. She baked her own bread. Everytime I eat at Rosebuds it almost feels like grandma was cooking in the kitchen. My Lasagna was the very best. The Gnocchi were incredible and the meatballs were to die for! The bread was warm, crusty, and delicious just like grandma use to make. If you want a meal that is made fresh and tastes fresh and authentic then you must try Rosebud.

Always great service,food is always spot on with flavor and the atmosphere is charming and they dont try to shuffle you out. We are returning customers again and again

OMg we had friends from out of town meet us. The band last night 8/22/25 was awesome we danced and sang with them. We had a blast!!!!

Food was amazing. Service was good. I will for sure go back. Downside is it is very loud in there.

Got excellent carrots as always.

Wonderful dinning experienceStaff very attentive but not pushy

Excellent food and service

11 family members, food and appetizers all came out hot, and DELICIOUS! Servers were engaging and prompt. Probably my all time favorite place !

I was there on a Friday night and the band was there! My friends and I had a ball loved it

We had made a reservation the same day and we got a good table. We didn't even wait for 15 minutes and our food was ready. The food was bomb, the drinks were bomb, and the service was excellent! Though the whole night they would walk by and ask if we was ok or needed anything. We didn't have a candle in our table and brought it to us since most tables have one. It was my sister's birthday and they brought her a birthday cake and I believe it was the manager that sang to her. They have valet parking and lots of parking space. We will definitely come here again.

I haven't been to the rosebud 18 year! One thing haven't changed. The outside and warn service we got! This location is in, Lamont IL.The food portion are insane or I am just getting older 🤣🤣Huge food and desert portion two share!

Delicious!!!!!!!!!

The food is great and service exceptional. We love the seafood linguine. The polenta and meatballs are very good too.

My family and I have come here twice and everything was absolutely great. Special shout out to Matt, who is such a great server, and Alex, the bus boy, was so attentive. Oh and that banana cream pie……. O M G

waiter Dimitri was excellent, good fantastic had the veal , really really nice dinner

Great place. I never had pure Italian food, and I'm happy this was the first place I tried. The food is unbelievable. So savory. The servers are fantastic. Everything was great. 10 stars if I could.

5/5 stars. The food and atmosphere are amazing! It is an extremely friendly and welcoming staff and we will for sure return! We love to recommend this place to our friends and family! The manager Grey is phenomenal and always makes everything run so smoothly. Great place! We will be back soon.

I was alone this Christmas and went to Rosebud for a Christmas lunch. Bobby Hitz and entire staff made me feel very welcome and at ease. They couldn't have been nicer or more attentive. The food was absolutely delicious and it made for lovely Christmas Day. Thank you!

This place was first class. From the food, the service, atmosphere and just beautiful inside.Best spot in Lemont hands down and great apps and great desserts, Just a awesome experience. We will be back for sure and the owner treated is like royalty.. Two huge thumbs up for Rosebuds in Lemont

One of the best restaurants I have ever been to the food is wonderful and the service is outstanding.

All I can say is , if you want a great meal, hurry down to rosebud Lemont. The food , the drinks, the ambiance it's all top notch. I had the calabrese breaded pork chop! I will definitely be back very soon. 5 stars all the way .

The food is always good, the service wasvery good considering it was new years eve at 630 pm a d they had reservations for 500 that night so with that being said rock on rosebud

The manager of the Lemont location, Grey Ramirez, did a terrific job of coordinating our catering order for Christmas Day! He couldn’t have been more accommodating. The food was delicious, it was delivered on time & everything went as promised! I highly recommend using Rosebud Lemont for your next gathering!

Fabulous! The restaurant is warm and inviting! Staff...delightful! Food...abundant and delicious!

This is my first time in this place. Great experience, environment, and excellent service.

Very attentive, food was delicious

Such a great restaurant. Service, food, atmosphere. We go on Fridays and there is live music. It’s hard to find a place where everyone is so nice and the food is so good. The Caesar salad is amazing. Chicken parm is huge and delicious and I love the vodka pasta.

Super generous portions, quick service, and live music on the weekends. Super cozy place, but make sure to go really hungry

Great food and sic,
