Katie's Notes:
I quite enjoyed the burger -- pretty straightforward portabello burger, but they did the classic well.  Also, it didn't fall apart like mushroom burgers so often do, a big plus!  The organic beer I had was inoffensive, but I wouldn't go back just for that beer.

Chris's Notes:
The food tasted like a TV dinner and our server seemed overwhelmed but friendly.  There was lots of waiting.

Jenny's Notes:
This was the least memorable meal of my [5 days in New York].

Katie's Notes:
The Red Rose had a nice Brooklyn Old School feel to it, complete with the sound of Italian in the air and a Dom DeLuise autographed photo in the window. While there weren't red checkered table clothes on the table, Bryan Adams was playing over head.

Chris's Notes:
Although my meal made me feel like I was about to have a heart attack, I'd go back to the restaurant just to feel connected to Brooklyn.

Windy's Notes:
Red Rose Restaurant had a nice family feel, just not good food. The wine was much better than deserved. "I Love the Nightlife" and "When You Love A Woman" playing over the speakers felt just right. Also, they have a bar...
