Service was friendly and very helpful. 3 of the party ordered fish pie. 1 was cold and not cooked. They very quickly removed all the fish pies. All new ones returned and full refund. Very apologetic. Apart from that small problem all other meals yummy.

One of the best Italian restaurant. From menu to preparation to service and above all kid friendly.

It was an amazing experience. A super limited menu, which shows everything is made fresh and knowing everything is produced, forged or locally sourced. The service was very fun and looked after, without being over bearing. The food was generous and so delicious! A must visit and I'm looking forward to returning!

I have been to Harley’s lounge twice and I must say it is the best restaurant in Hertford. The menu has so much choice to suit all different types of people and the food is delicious. I would highly recommend

Everything was superb, but the only concern was that there was no written menu, so you could see what you were eating. Of course, the charming and considerate staff told us about each course, but unfortunately, their accents obscured some of the ingredient names. Not a big problem, as we loved every dish, but it would have been more interesting if we could have heard all the special and intriguing ingredients that went into each surprising dish!

Lovely front of house people and simply sensational food. Wouldn’t be surprised to see this place get a star next year. Outstanding. Only bit of feedback would be to get an automatic closer on the door. We were sat by the door and so many people left and didn’t close it so I was up and down all night shutting the door, But food and service couldn’t be faulted

    Lovely evening with my son. We live locally but have another family ‘Italian’ favourite so hadn’t eaten at Rosella yet. The service was 100% perfect. All waiting staff were all super friendly and polite with it. The place was packed being Friday night but wasn’t overly loud. Both our dishes were very satisfying. Hence we will be back. WellDone Rosella for filling what I thought was always a problem site with quick turnaround restaurants that were difficult to fill. I hope they make it work and Rosella will be become a local institution.
