It's non stop action at Rosebud on Rush, which has become a staple of the Chicago restaurant scene. From the moment the doors open, this hot spot thrives. The high energy atmosphere fills two cozy dining rooms and spills onto a lovely outdoor patio. In warm weather months, guests who prefer to dine al fresco can enjoy fabulous views of Rush Street and fantastic people watching. Yet, the main event at Rosebud on Rush is the outstanding Italian cuisine. Heaping portions of homemade favorites such as chicken vesuvio, square noodles and sausage & peppers will make you savor every bite and leave…

When it's warm, this patio of this Italian mainstay is jam-packed with people watchers who hail from near and far. Inside the cozy-but-boisterous brownstone, several dining rooms adorned with drapes, mirrors and rich wood paneling waft with the scent of garlic. Plump mussels in white wine sauce and pan-fried calamari with zippy cherry peppers start things off with a bang. Minestrone soup warms from the inside out. Homemade pappardelle is christened with full-bodied tomato sauce, while Chicken Vesuvio, studded with peas, receives a bracing blast of lemon. – – –

Terrible service with less than average cuisine.

by ussfletcher at Citysearch

I saw how busy the restaurant was and read the reviews on here and decided to try this place. Sadly the food was sub par and we only saw our waiter (who's English was barely understandable) when ordering food and delivering the bill. It wasn't even that he was busy, it was that 6 or 7 waiters were standing right outside of the kitchen joking around. The veal we ordered was extremely tough, however that's possible.. The side pasta had the worst marinara sauce I had ever eaten. The bottom line is you would probably be better off with a can of Chef Boy R Dee.

  • Pros: Outdoor seating
  • Cons: Expensive, Below average food, Terrible service (and no refills on soft drinks either)

Cozy, bustling ambience; good food; great location; ok service

by taylorsl at Citysearch

Food good but not phenomenal and a little overpriced in my opinion. I had the pasta special that was very flavorful with shrimp, tomatoes, asparagus, mushrooms, garlic, and olive oil but it was $30 which the waiter never mentioned. The stuffed mushroom appetizer was excellent. The wine list was very extensive and had a nice selection of wines by the glass. The atmosphere is warm and cozy and it was very busy. Our server was not the most attentive, however, when he was around he was decent. The location is great--right on the corner of Rush & Superior, and it's got a cool outdoor area right on the street.

  • Pros: Location, atmosphere, food flavor & quality
  • Cons: Service, overpriced
