"I had a wonderful dining experience here! The price fixed menu offers great value. The portions are generous, and the quality of the food is excellent. Every dish was flavorful and well-prepared. The service was outstanding, attentive without being overbearing. What really made the experience special was the warmth and hospitality of the owners. They are incredibly kind and welcoming, and it’s clear they put a lot of heart into their restaurant. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a satisfying meal in a friendly, relaxed atmosphere. The trattoria also has a beautiful view of the Riviera."

"Excellent quick, cheap eats and Italian comfort food in the middle of the mountains away from the city. The tagliatelle pesto and the gnocchi with Raghu were very satisfying. The salad came in a plastic red basin which was a slight turn off. The waitress was super efficient and running the restaurant like a boss. 24 Euros for entire meal for two including a bottle of wine."

"As Trattoria Rosa is the only eatery in the small enclave of San Maurizio di Monti, I wasn't sure what to expect. After quick view into the kitchen, I was much more hopeful, and food surpassed my hopes. The food, the service, the atmosphere, and the setting conspire to conjure a very satisfying dining experience. Highly recommended."

"Can’t wait to come for longer the next year and come here more times. The food is delicious, the service is amazing. They are very quick. Mostly locals. If you are tourist and you are reading this comment, just step by! You will have a great experience. Let you refined from the waiter what is to eat. They have good options but don’t expect plants of options. Here you come to have good food and good service. Here you will have your wine from a normal water glass and in whole you will be very happy with your choice. Actually if you come with the car in the evening try to come earlier, so you will have the parking place."

"Do you ever have one of those accidents where are you set your GPS and don’t pay close attention to the route and find yourself going over a big mountain or through the woods somewhere? That’s exactly what happened here when we discovered trattoria Rosa. It was a very simple place with great food good prices and excellent service. Classic Italian from Liguria, you won’t be disappointed. We went there for lunch and had just simple things, everything was quite good. Just be ready beautiful views and simple things.."
