Roses New York downtown

Great place, came here for a friends birthday party and it went very well. Food came quickly, and it tasted amazing, highly reccomend the tandoori chicken. Their cheesecake is to die for, consider having that if you go here. 10/10

The restaurant wasn’t busy on a Saturday morning and was able to get a seat pretty quick. There were only two other tables with us there. There was one lady who was at the host stand and also who served us throughout our stay. She was very attentive and welcoming. The banana pancakes were decent and served with real maple syrup. They had good banana slices and I liked the cinnamon. The mushroom omelette was really dry so the texture was tough. The potatoes and toast were also just okay.

Roses is fine. It was a close by pizza place that was open late at night so we gave it a try. The pizza itself was fine but it was extremely expensive and that doesn’t quite make sense to me. Two pizzas and the tip was like $55 CAD which seems a bit pricey to me. The pizzas were fine, but not worth the price. Had the price been more affordable I would give it a higher rating, but, I just struggle with recommending Roses considering the quality of pizza for the cost you have to pay.

This is my place to go every time I travel to Toronto. Excellent food, service and very relaxed atmosphere. So glad I came across this wonderful restaurant 2 years ago. I highly recommend it!

Roses New York is a chain restaurant and lounge located in the downtown Fort York area. They operate from Wednesdays to Sundays between 9 am and 3 pm for brunch. However, based on both first-hand experience and previous reviews, it appears that you should avoid coming here for the rude service and experience. During our visit, we had a group of six that decided to try Roses due to busy brunch places nearby around 1:15 pm. Unfortunately, the service proved to be highly unsatisfactory, and the food itself was lacklustre. We found ourselves subject to sluggish service from the kitchen and inattentive staff members who neglected to refill their water glasses or provide updates on the progress of their orders. To our dismay, midway through the wait, we were informed that groups of six or more are automatically charged an 18% gratuity but were not notified at the entrance. When we inquired about the status of their food, one staff member responded sarcastically, stating that "the food is cooking," failing to provide any genuine assistance nor offering to check up on the status. We had observed two other tables being served a total of five dishes after our order had been placed. The staff member attributed this discrepancy to one of the tables placing a to-go order but then deciding to dine in, claiming the customer was her boyfriend. Overall, we wait for over 30 minutes for our food, all while witnessing other tables receiving more attention. Roses offered an array of brunch options ranging from classic egg breakfasts to benedicts, omelettes, pancakes, french toast, and waffles. The orders included 2 Eggs with Potatoes, Sausage and Toast, Roses Egg Plate, BLT Sandwich with an additional cost to substitute fries for salad, and a Cheeseburger with fries. The breakfast sausage had an unusual taste that deviated from the typical pork variety which our group thinks it was turkey, yet the staff failed to disclose this information. The Roses Egg Plate was brought to the table with two servings of potatoes and fries but no eggs, bacon, or sausages, which we requested for the kitchen to look into. The only aspect of their meals that was commendable was the quality of the potatoes/fries. The coffee, as noted in previous reviews, was stated to be in limited supply and was not offered with bottomless refills. The lack of attention to detail and customer service courtesy by the staff further added to the disappointing experience. The interior of Roses New York accommodates approximately 40 to 50 seats, while the outside area can accommodate around 20 to 30 patrons. The ambiance and interior design were quite nice. It is worth mentioning that the restaurant tends to be quite busy during nighttime. However, based on the bad brunch experience described, it would be advisable to avoid visiting Roses for brunch altogether, as it was ruined by rude and inefficient service. The entire "brunch" ordeal lasted just under two hours, with the majority of the time spent waiting for food due to the slow kitchen and service. Regarding payment, Roses New York accepts credit cards. However, during this visit, the junior staff member requested assistance from the patrons in distributing the split receipts since she was unsure which bill corresponded to each individual. If they want to fix future experiences, first start with improving staff customer service skills and turnaround time in the kitchen. Overall, we would avoid coming back to this establishment as it left us with a very horrible experience.
