Inside Rosie Cannonball
Rosie Cannonball sits comfortably in Houston’s Montrose neighborhood, serving up a fresh take on Modern European and Italian dining with a clear emphasis on wood-fired pizzas and thoughtfully crafted dishes. The restaurant has an inviting, lively atmosphere that fits the eclectic spirit of the area without feeling overly formal or pretentious. It’s the kind of place where groups gather for casual dinners but where attention to detail remains evident — from the usage of local and quality ingredients to the carefully curated cocktail list.
The menu here is a playground of flavors, balancing shareable starters like the Blistered Green Bean Salad and Little Gem Lettuces with more substantial dishes such as the Steak Fiorentina and Blue Crab Carbonara. Pizza lovers find a distinct draw in options like the Cacio E Pepe Pizza, which cleverly interprets a classic pasta flavor into pizza form, and Rosie’s Supreme, a hearty combination of fennel sausage, mushrooms, peppers, and olives. The honey cake dessert, often mentioned by diners, offers a sweetness that closes the meal on a comforting and sophisticated note.
Locals especially appreciate Rosie Cannonball’s weekend vibe when wine deals pair seamlessly with the approachable menu, making it easy to share plates and enjoy a relaxed pace. The service leans toward attentive without being intrusive, with staff happy to guide guests through the menu and adapt orders when needed — a plus for those with dietary preferences or restrictions.
The design and setting support a social evening, with a mix of table sizes to accommodate both intimate dinners and larger gatherings. It's not a quiet, tucked-away spot, but rather a place where the buzz complements the food and drink experience. For visitors curious about Houston’s contemporary culinary scene or locals wanting a lively place to catch up over great food and cocktails, Rosie Cannonball hits a well-balanced note of quality and conviviality.
