"We were excited to come back here after their initial opening, but we regret picking RS for our one year wedding anniversary. When we were seated we were told by our hostess that the table needed to be cleaned and it would be taken care of. Our waitress came and nobody had cleaned it yet so we asked if we could have it cleaned. She gave a very annoyed look and walked away without saying one word. We almost left at that point but had paid for parking which is the only reason we stayed. Our waitress returned a few minutes later and begrudgingly wiped our table down (is that an unreasonable ask..? I ordered a glass of wine and my husband ordered a grapefruit cocktail. It was 14 dollars for a shot of Tito’s with grapefruit juice. Extremely overpriced. We then put our orders in and were told we’d be getting bread very soon. 15 minutes later there was still nothing and I was wanting to order a second glass of wine. Finally the hostess returned with bread saying they had to get it from the freezer downstairs. I asked if I could please have a second glass of wine which did eventually come. Food came immediately after and while it was good/slightly above average, it was just very overpriced for the poor service. We never got bread again, or dessert suggestions. We would have loved a friendly waitress that would have asked if we were celebrating something special that evening since this was our first anniversary and we picked this place..would have been nice to have that appreciation. For 40 dollars more we could have gone to Giannis in Wayzata and actually have been treated warmly with great service. This experience and waitress ruined it for us. We will not be back."

Had a fantastic meal here in October, 2022. The pasta and the burger were excellent. Dessert was great too. Highly recommended!

The restaurant is very quaint and we enjoyed our table. The food was good but too much olive oil for the garlic sauce. The cost was very high for the quality of food.

My friend and I had brunch here this past weekend, and I can’t stop thinking about how they made their sausage patties! They were absolutely delicious. Everything we had was fantastic!

Had a fabulous dinner tonight here. Our waiter Patrick was amazing. He paid attention, was quick, and our food was also amazing. Highly recommend for a casual date night, or a fancy night out. You will not be disappointed. View menu

The bar has a lovely atmosphere and isn't overly crowded like some of the nearby places, although it did get busier before we left for dinner. The arancini was excellent, and there’s a great selection of beers. We also received good service during our visit.

Just had an exceptionallly good meal here. The Meatballs made a great starter, followed by a delicious salmon entree, and finished off with a super yummy pistachio cheesecake. The others in our party had shrimp linguine, parmesan chicken, and cioppino. All were very pleased with their choice. Service was excellent as well

This is our second visit, and the food and drinks continue to impress! Everything is incredibly delicious. However, I do think the prices don’t quite align with the casual atmosphere. For a more laid-back dining experience, the costs seem a bit steep. Our bill for two came to $100, and I didn’t feel the need to dress formally for the occasion. View menu

Service was great. Food not so much. Very disappointed. Appetizer white bean and sausage soup. Delicious flavor but light on bean and sausage. Mostly broth. Not a good value. Dinner also disappointing. Cavatappi was all pasta and very little peas, medium sausage they grind it so small, and very little sauce. Just a bowl of pasta. Underwhelming

My fiancé and I heard great things about RSR. We were even thinking about using the downstairs venue for our rehearsal dinner before our wedding. After tonight, we will not be coming back nor using this as a venue. The service was horrible, which ultimately overshadowed the food. There were 6 of us for dinner at 7pm. We sat down and ordered our first round of drinks right away, began chatting for a while and started wondering where the menus were? It had been 40 min and we hadn’t seen a menu. The server came back around wondering if we wanted another round of drinks, no sir, a menu please. The table was never cleared, our drinks were building up, the appetizer plates were never taken away. W...
