Regardless of origin, I liked the Rosalie list because it had a lot to offer at a medium price range [$55]. I agree with the post below re: "concept" - it's the restaurant's choice and hopefully has been thought through along side the menu. If you want to experiment, go the byob route....? Having said that :-) I am always interested in regional offerings; wines, iced ciders, liqueurs. etc. A few bars make a point of highlighting these, not sure about restaurants.

Ate at Rosalie last Saturday night; our party [of three] walked away fully satisfied with the food - a nice touch was that the vegetables [for all plats principal] were not overlooked - a rare treat; they had just the right bite, interesting and flavourful. Menu overall was intriguing. A request for something vegetarian was accomodated no problem [risotto]. The service was shaky - somewhat typical at this kind of place: good-looking boys and girls who are friendly, but not very knowledgeable or even confident about what they are serving or what can be offered, floor manager was insanely present, hostesses slightly confused. This is especially awkward if the restaurant is noisy [as it is] and busy...creates a chaotic rather than energetic vibe. Liked the layout - bar is nice and separated from the dining, lighting and music were good Interesting-flower/plant arrangements.
