Best of Italian Steakhouse Fine Dining
For nearly half a century, Rosebud Restaurants has defined Chicago’s Italian-American culinary culture, earning a devoted following amongst locals, celebrities and even members of the Rat Pack. Now, with its new outpost in Boca Raton, Mia Rosebud brings that legacy of heritage-driven cuisine and heartfelt hospitality to South Florida. “At Mia Rosebud, guests are treated like family,” says Marco Micheli, Rosebud Restaurants’ director of operations. “For us, it’s more than serving great food. It’s about creating moments that feel warm and welcoming, like sitting at Nonna’s table.”
That sense of care and comfort permeates the restaurant, from its alluring supper club vibe and rich wood finishes to the cozy leather banquettes perfect for people-watching and viewing black-and-white photos of owner Alex Dana with famous friends like Frank Sinatra and Tony Bennett. The inviting ambiance sets the stage for a design-forward evening of gastronomy—whether it’s an after-work unwind with sliders and a beer pairing, girls’ night with cocktails and upbeat melodies, a romantic dinner over in-house-crafted pasta and wine, a multigenerational meal centered around saucy classics, or a celebration marked with fresh seafood and prime-aged steaks flown in daily from Chicago.
“Mia Rosebud is built on centuries-old family recipes and a deep respect for tradition,” Micheli explains. “Our standards never change, but we’re always evolving with the times. That passion flows from the kitchen to the front of house and shines in every touchpoint of the experience. The key is listening closely and delivering what brings people happiness.”
