Spaghetti & Tagliatelle

Spaghetti is one of the most representative dishes of Italy and one of the most complete pasta dishes to enjoy during the day or night. The different varieties of spaghetti served at our Italian restaurant are made from unique pasta that not only enhances flavour but also contains vitamins and minerals beneficial for the body.

The varieties we serve are inspired by traditional Sicilian cuisine and its most popular combinations, such as alla carbonara, al aglio, frutti di mare, and alla bolognese. A highly appealing and complete main course to savour the best taste of Italian pasta.

Risotto

Italian risotto is a comforting and satisfying dish that originated in northern Italy. It is a creamy rice dish typically made with Arborio rice, slowly cooked with broth and other ingredients until it reaches a thick and luxurious texture.

At Rossini, you’ll find two versions of this classic Italian recipe: forest mushroom risotto and seafood risotto.

Calzone

The Italian calzone is a delicious folded pizza that originated in Naples, Italy. It is a baked pizza dough filled with cheese, tomato sauce, and other ingredients. What sets the calzone apart from a regular pizza is that it is folded in half, creating a pocket of delicious mixture inside the dough. The result is a crispy exterior with a soft and savoury interior. The Italian calzone is a tasty and satisfying way to enjoy pizza with a unique twist.
