Rosario's Trattoria — Restaurant in City of Schenectady

Walk, run, crawl, to Rosario's! The Best casual Italian you can get in this area! Delicious AND affordable!

My order: Slice of Sausage Sicilian pizza- 5/5 (best I've had in the last 20 years.) Loaf of Semolina Italian bread- 5/5 (great fresh, crusty, with amazing flavor) -Fresh Panzerotti- 5/5 (first time ever having it, now a new favorite, doughie, crisp on the outside, filled with ricotta, prosciutto, and deliciousness) -Chicken Parmigiana- 5/5- (would've been better if I could have eaten it fresh, still excellent) -Garlic knots X2- 5/5- THEY COME WITH EVERY DINNER!! Best I've had in a long time!) -Cheese Danish 5/5 ( a danish the size of a salad plate? Yes please!)

There is heavy construction on the road in front of the building. Between rush hour and construction, parking is a nightmare right now. I parked 3 blocks away and walked to the shop. That said, I would walk from MILES AWAY to go there again.

We haven't had a steak sandwich that good since Cazolas in south Florida. We highly recommend it. Food here is definitely cooked with some of the best ingredients and care. We are so happy to be eating Italian again, because it was not...
