Rosie's Tavola, Mount Joy - Bar # 115


"Education is important but Beer is importanter"

Today we returned to Mount Joy, PA where the Retired Guys found the one year old Rosie's Tavola, a business dedicated to an Italian Dining experience. Well, as anyone who follows this blog regularly knows the Retired Guys are dedicated to the Beer tasting experience.  We were not disappointed and in fact were thrilled to have found a new eatery to return to at some near future date.  (As an aside, I'm beginning to think that Mount Joy has more bars per person than most areas in Lancaster County!  Consider this borough for your next bar crawl.)

When we entered Rosie's we were greeted happily by Shay, our bartender for the afternoon.  I think that inside Shay was a little nervous as she explained today was her first time having responsibility for the bar.  On the outside she showed no signs of nerves getting the upper hand and was remarkable with her attention to us while she also dealt with some serving responsibilities on the restaurant side.  "So what ?" you might say "how hard can it be to serve beer?"  Agreed, but she also made a couple of cocktails for the first time that garnered compliments from her customers.....Way to go Shay!

As I said earlier, this is primarily a restaurant so it had a small selection of draft beer (4) but all were of the craft variety and a very nice mix to easily satisfy most people seeking a good brew.  We also tried an appetizer highly recommended by Shay.  The Charcuterie Plate was excellent in flavor and the quantity served was more than enough to feed both Retired Guys and in the process obviated the need for dinner later.  We were advised that most of the food served here is prepared on site and is both fresh and tasty.  Dinner reservations are highly recommended.  Next time I get the urge for Italian food, this will be my first selection.  I'll go for the food and get to enjoy the beer!
