- KKathleenDenver / Colorado •3 reviews5.0Dined 5 days ago We gathered for an early birthday party for my 46 year-old son who is soon to be 47! His brother and sister-in-law and 10 year-old Mia listened and asked questions from our waitress. I forgot her name, but she was extremely kind and knowledgeable about the menu. Our waitress made this experience for my family, warm and enjoyable and exciting. Blessings to our waitress and to the Rosa for their hospitality.
