Rosies Bistro in Gardiner

Price gouging tourist prices of course... the food was mediocre at best. For what we ordered I could make taste fantastic in my own kitchen. The ribs were like jerky and apparently they don’t know how to make good pasta primavera and the chicken Alfredo gross my daughter threw it away! $90! Seriously?! Never again.

Nice clean place, friendly and knowledgeable wait staff. Efficiency and really good burgers!

Very nice people serving us. Unfortunately, dinner was not very good. Pasta and chops were okay, salmon and ribs were bad.

Waiter seemed very new. He didn’t give us our menus right away and when he gave us our food all he said was “ya” in response to thank you. He didn’t ask if we need anything else or tell us to enjoy our meal. He also didn’t give us any napkins. The menu was very limited and nothing sounded good. Food was decent, fries were soggy though. I don’t recommend.

Way overpriced, messed up our order, small portions, and food was not made correctly. Would not recommend.

Food was good however portions are way to small. Ordered brisket tacos came out with 2 soft tacos and only one slice of brisket per taco. Tasted great just not an entrée

First I will say that due to current conditions with COVID, I can appreciate how hard it is to try and open if you don’t have a full staff. But if you don’t have enough servers for the tables, and cooks in the kitchen it is probably best to not open. It took 30 min to order. Luckily we were not in a huge rush. ( we saw 3 tables get seated and then leave because of lack of service.) we had to wait 10 min after ordering drinks to get more than water. Then my husband had to ask the busser for another beer— waited another 10 min. When our food came out both of my sons’ Spagetti dishes were ice cold and the meatballs were Luke warm. It took 10 min to hail the hostess to ask for new dishes asap!! My husband and I ate ours and we didn’t see the new dishes until we were done eating. By that time we were done waiting. All in all, I think the servers did what they could, and it was more bad management.

There was only one guy who was seating people, taking orders and running out food. He was running around like crazy trying to keep up. We waited awhile for our food. The grilled chicken sandwich was good, after I asked for a new bun that wasn't burnt and for more pesto (there was about 1/4 tsp on the sandwich...). My daughter waited about 30 min for her mac and cheese, which turned out to be Kraft mac and cheese from the box. We were also disappointed that the pizza side of the restaurant was closed. Expensive food for what it was.

We were convinced our waiter forgot about us on two separate occasions. The condiments on the table were all supposed to be refrigerated after opening. The food was worth about half what we paid for it in quality, flavor, and service time. The only bright point of our much regretted visit was that the sodas were refilled quickly by the auxiliary staff, although the water refills were room temperature and almost undrinkable. They also won't split a check, even to accept multiple payment methods such as half cash and the rest on a card. We will not return, ever.
