Rosa's home made bread is delicious. You can purchase extra loafs with butter. I love the special rib roast with mash potatoes, green beans. The meat is so tender as it melts into your mouth. I do not recommend the dinner salads. The clam chowder is amazing and a must if you are a clam chowder lover.
