First time at Rosati's, and we're already looking forward to going back! And, it's a BYOB! I ordered the Monday special: spaghetti & garlic bread, and Allan ordered his fav, Hawaiian pineapple, Canadian bacon on medium crust. He says it's THE BEST Hawaiian Pizza he's had in McKinney! Seriously, the cheese IS unbelievable! Options on the Monday special are Mostaccioli or Spaghetti. My spaghetti dish was enormous! I chose the meat sauce over the marinara and was told the meatsauce is sweeter than the marinara. Yes, it is sweeter than I prefer, but it is still delicious, and I will certainly order it again. I ate 1/4 of the massive serving and will be sharing it with Allan this evening for dinner. The garlic bread was seasoned and toasted perfectly. We ordered two Tirimisu desserts to go and enjoyed them at home. The Tirisimu was divine! This is no "Henry's" tirisimu. This was light, fluffy, not overly sweet, and absolutely delish! Allan is a connoisseur of Tirimisu (Orders it every at Italian establishment) and loved Rosati's! It's made in their Chicago kitchen and shipped directly to McKinney. Try it - you will love it! Allan loves Chicken Parmesan, so next Tuesday, we will be at Rosati's for their Tuesday special at $10.99. BTW: Check out the daily specials I've posted with the menu. We're coming back for the Wednesday lasagna at $10.99 and Thursday's Full Slab Ribs at $19.99 in the weeks to come. Rosati's is small, super clean, and provides friendly and excellent service. The booths are large with cushy seats. Very comfortable for Allan, who's at 6' 4" tall. And BYOB! The only thing missing was Italian music. We've dined at several Italian restaurants in McKinney, and Rosati's is literally a few minutes from home. Who knew this little gem would be our favorite McKinney Italian restaurant to date?

Wednesday Special is Lasagna, and it is FANTASTIC! We ordered Garlic Cheese Bread and they were garlicky & cheesy. We also enjoyed our own wine since Rosati's is BYOB. And once again, we ordered the fantastic cinnamon sticks. They have the best cinnamon sticks in town. No one even comes close!
☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
Margherita Pizza!! It was my first pizza here, and it was wonderful! 12 inch, olive oil, basil, mozzarella, and ricotta on a thin crust. Absolutely delicious. I brought 3/4 of it home b/c we started with mozzarella sticks and dipping marinara sauce. Seriously, their crispy, gooey, cheesy mozzarella sticks are soooo good! Allan ordered his usual: Canadian bacon, pineapple, extra cheese and said it was fantastic!
If you want THE BEST CINNAMON dessert EVER - Order the cinnamon sticks! They're fluffy on the inside with a slight crisp on the outside. They drizzle a cinnamon, vanilla butter base frosting all over them - NO ONE IN DFW has better Cinnamon Sticks! As always, customer service is outstanding. And of course, Allan enjoyed his Cabernet Sauvignon, and I paired a light bubbly with my pizza. BYOB! We enjoyed a fun evening after a fantastic day. Rosati's is a gem!

Lunch Special! We ordered Mostaccioli pasta w/ meat marinara 2 large meatballs 1 kids 7 inch cheese pizza Mozzarella sticks and for dessert: Cinnamon sticks
We started lunch with the hot, gooey, crispy mozzarella cheese sticks and marinara - excellent!
I love their spaghetti with meat sauce but decided to try the mostaccioli. BTW: We share, b/c the portions are rather large. Allan wanted more meat, so we ordered 2 meatballs.
We also wanted to order a cheese pizza for our bread. We decided on the kids' 7 inch pizza, double dough, with a special hand twist crust.
Everything was absolutely excellent! I truly believe Consistency is a key to an outstanding restaurant, and Rosatis is ALWAYS ON POINT!
As usual, we ordered the BEST Cinnamon sticks in DFW! A savory cinnamon, buttery, vanilla Crème sauce, drizzled generously all over the warm, crispy baked dough. No one comes close!
Thank you, Briana, for another wonderful dining experience...

Read moreI placed a to-go order on Sunday (6/14) around 12 – 12:30 or so, my family has a small business in Dallas although I live in Arkansas. So I was just passing thru on business and stopped by Rosati’s Pizza before I got back on the road. I ordered the Chicago deep dish, in fact I ordered 2. I heard the pizza was good and I have the best neighbors back home in Arkansas so I picked up one to take back to them as well. As I approached the counter to pick up my order I could hear a lady in the kitchen screaming and shouting at the waitress! We could all here the lady in the kitchen literally just outright degrading the young waitress for something she had done, or not done (the waitress looked very young with long black curly hair (she looked to be of Indian descent but I can’t be sure) but it was horrific and so unnecessary. I mean people make mistakes, and whatever the girl did surely did not warrant that kind of chewing out!. I was embarrassed for the young girl. I asked the guy who checked me out, does she know that we can hear her?? And he kinda just smiled. I’m not sure if she was the owner but Lord knows I hope not with that kinda behavior. And why didn’t anyone check her! Anyway, after the guy checked me out I asked if you all had a bag that I could put my pizzas in since I had a 5 hr drive bk home. He said no. I thought this was odd because I could clearly see a to-go order neatly packaged in a brown paper bag sitting on the counter right behind him. So I pointed at the bag and asked if I could get one like that. He said it wasn’t big enough for me to fit my two pizzas in. So I made a suggestion to let me try... and what-da-ya know.. IT FIT!! I am not sure why this young man did not want to give me a bag for my order. I pray that it did not have anything to do with my race, but I just thought it ‘odd’ because I was a paying customer. and to be honest I’m still not sure what to make of that. The pizza was good but its sad that my review had to be over shadowed with what clearly seems to be some internal issues going on.. and its true what they say.. you only get one chance to make a 1st...
