La Rosetta Restaurant — Restaurant in London

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 11/10 DINNER VIBES IN BRENTFORD 🇮🇹🔥

We’ve just had one of those nights — the kind that feels straight out of a feel-good film 🎬

The evening before our next Summer Summit, myself, Colin, F.I.R.T.H and 8MinuteAsh ventured out into the Brentford heatwave (and I mean heatwave — I had to de-layer just to survive the walk 😅) in search of food and fresh air

Colin found us a gem: La Rosetta, a family-run Italian tucked right in Brentford town centre

On arrival, the hostess greeted me by name — bit confusing (she thought we were someone else), but hey, VIP treatment from the start 😎

They joined two tables outside for us, and that’s when we met the legend that is Mimmo — waiter, comedian, drink-runner and table-cleaning machine all rolled into one

I ordered a meat pizza, but Mimmo — in his infinite wisdom — looked deep into my soul and said “no… you need the mixed grill” Naturally, it was the priciest thing on the menu… so I said yes

Drinks arrived, phones came out, 8MinuteAsh flexed his new Pixel camera, and we got into the usual debates — Houston in November? Ibiza instead? 🤔 (Spoiler: Ibiza’s winning 🇪🇸)

Food landed. I had the mighty mixed grill with a side of bolognese sauce (which baffled Mimmo completely) Colin & F.I.R.T.H both dove into the lasagna Ash — the minimalist — went for a plain plate of spaghetti 🍝 (still don’t understand that one 🤷‍♂️)

Halfway through the meal it was photo time 📸 We roped in the same lady who greeted us to take the snap Absolute gold — even got a bonus photobomb from the cheerful Swedish gent sat behind us 😂

We cleared every plate. Then the classic debate: “Desserts? Coffees? What’s next?” I stuck to tea (because let’s be honest, who actually likes coffee?) ☕

And we wrapped the night by plotting a Morrisons breakfast raid in the morning for the big Summer Summit meetup 🛒

All in all? La Rosetta — 10/10 Genuine staff, good laughs, killer food, and those perfect summer evening vibes

We recently dined at La Rosetta after booking a table a week in advance. While the restaurant managed to fit us in, it felt more like squeezing us in. The tables were packed very close together, which made the space feel cramped, and it was very loud.

The extensive wine list was impressive, and we enjoyed some complimentary olives while waiting for our food. The meal itself was lovely—traditional Italian fare, simple yet delicious. The tiramisu, in particular, was excellent and a highlight of the evening.

Our experience was somewhat marred by an awkward experience. Before our mains arrived, the waitress kindly moved us from our cramped table in the middle of the restaurant to a roomier one on the side. My 6ft 2 husband was clearly struggling with his chair and being in the way of passing plates and people. Unfortunately, this turned out to be a mistake on her part as the table was apparently reserved for an elderly couple who joined about 30 minutes later. The manager confronted the waitress straight away in a stern manner, and we felt very sorry for her. While the manager did explain the situation to us afterward, the ordeal left us feeling embarrassed and as though we had caused an inconvenience.

While the food was great and the staff otherwise attentive, the table debacle detracted from the overall experience, leaving us feeling rushed and a little uncomfortable. It is a real shame, as this could have been a truly wonderful evening with just a bit more attention to detail in handling...

Really great food and service and drinks ! Everything was served at the right temperature, fresh clean table linen which makes a welcome change ! Very comfortable and relaxed atmosphere. We hadn’t booked this time and every table was full or reserved but we were quickly offered a table right next to the open seated area in the square. All the staff were so accommodating . Whilst we were having our meal we noticed they really tried to meet everyone’s requests for a tables rather than turn people away . Saw quite a few tables and chairs being moved around outside whilst we were having our meal ! We loved our food - all freshly made and cooked to order! Loved the Zucchini Fritto ! My husband had the house special Fettuccine pasta which was delicious . As I have dietary issues, I asked if I could have Bufalo Mozzarella on my Pizza instead, as this was not an advertised option . Really enjoyed the house white wine. All was excellent value . A lovely friendly family run restaurant! ! This is a little jewel tucked away in Brentford. Would highly recommend! Best to book if you go on a Fri...
