  2. Not what it looks like
    Service is poor, food is average but with too much trans fat everywhere, best part was the music but the dance floor is tiny and the bouncers don't do a good job making sure there's a balance of males/females..oh and did I mention that food and drinks are overpriced??

  3. Avoid, Terrible Service
    Had b-day party and spent well over $1000 on friday night, made reservations 3 weeks in advance and had bottle service at table. The owner Mina Shamsaei son showed up and tried to take over area and had his friends disrupt our party. This was very unprofessional and tacky. He commented on, he wanted to make money that night and have his friends enjoy drinks on the house. If this is the way Mina h...

  5. Phony
    Just another fake bar trying to fit into a high class area. Neither the drinks or the girls are worth it.

  6. Good job Rosie 5 star all food, drink, and service
    We went there after a long day @ work (November 5th 8pm). We enjoyed the pub ambiance, friendly bartenders, & great food. I had mouth watering filet, my friends ordered burger, and fish & chips. our server told us all the meats are Organic. My friends loved their beer selection as well. This was my 4th visit. Never bad experience. Now that Obama is our new president for change, and economy ...

  7. Good drinks
    We went to Rosie McCann's after going out for dinner. Rosie's has good drinks and the prices are reasonable. We liked that it was located downtown, not too far from our hotel (but far enough to maybe walk off a bit of the alcohol). Very relaxed and inviting environment.

  8. Great Spot on a Thursday!
    WOW does this place get crowded though...Good music with a great mix of people. Drinks are a little pricey and small, but great place to walk around before and after with Santana Row right there.

  9. A bit pricey but decent food
    I personally loved my bangers and mash (although they were $15!!) but my friends' food was a boring chicken pesto sandwich for $13. This place is a little odd, a nice looking dining room, with a crazy bar area right next to it. They do have a nice selection or beers from Ireland and the UK but if you are looking for a more authentic Irish pub don't go here.

  10. Avoid, terrible place!
    I went there several times, I even stopped by on 21st birthday. Yet when my friends came over to visit, I was not allowed because when I showed the bouncer my ID he told me it was fake. I told him that it is a real ID and it was issued by the DMV and he can call the cops since if it is fake then I'm breaking the laws. The bouncer was extremely rude and told me to find cops so they could check my ...

  11. Great food - fun san jose place
    I was down in San Jose for work and went to Rosie's with some colleagues after our conference... I live in San Francisco so I'm used to great restaurants and great food and I must admit I was not expecting much from an Irish pub ~ but the food was AMAZING. The bacon wrapped stuffed prawns and the Irish nachos were delicious. I got the Kobe Beef burger and ceasar, which were great too. We end...

  12. This Restaurateur Should Be Ashamed
    I am an extreme business traveler that eats daily at restaurants throughout the United States and the World. When I get a rare chance to eat in my home city of San Jose I expect that I deserve a great dining experience for such a great city. But, my dinner with my wife at Rosie McCann?s was absolutely abysmal. I have never met a more unprofessional and robot-like wait staff. At least they should ...

  14. Fun dancing - not so great staff
    This is a great place to dance when they clear the tables out after 9 to 9:30. The crowd is younger than most of Santana Row but there is a good mix of different ages. You will see some of the same crowd from Straights here. The service does tend to be lame. If you are looking for a meal there are a lot of better options on Santana Row - or if you are looking for Irish food try the Irish bar in ...

  15. Very rude and unprofessional management --- please read! Do not support this restaurant!
    My friend and I planned on dining here and the manager who was seating us was sooooo rude and mean!! We were sooo shocked that such a manager can be so cruel and mean to customers. We didn't do anything wrong but just requested a table inside. Instead she said she doesn't have to serve us and she won't -- and kicked us out. Total discrimination!!!!! Please don't support this restaurant. I ...

  16. San Jose Restaurant Review - Bad Management outweighs o.k. food
    Two words: Bad Management. A very unhospitable management that is unwilling to make things right. We had a group of five people dining and received very poor service from a waitress who was inexperienced and often times rude. We also were told that we would have to leave before our dinner was over to make way for the dance floor. To top it off we received the bill with the gratuity added on....

  17. Best Margaritas
    This place has the best margaritas ever. Even, the virgin options are too cool.. I think it has been consitently rated as the best margaritas in the bay area time after time. Get a seat at the bar and have fun

  18. Worst Dining Experience EVER
    I don't know where to begin, as this was such a terrible experience. We went with a group of five people. When the waitress arrived to take our drink order she rattled off all the beers they didn't have. One person ordered beer and the rest were to share a bottle of wine. The beer arrived in about 5 minutes. The wine (once we finally chose one they had) came about 20 minutes later. When the chec...

  19. My favorite place in Santana Row
    I go to rosie's all the time. I love their fish and chips, calamari, and especially bread pudding dessert. Also try the cocktails, I love the pomegranate mojito. Weekends are great, I go with friends and stay for dancing. Great place for casual yet fun dining.

  20. great food, fun for dinner
    I went with a group for dinner and the food was really good - definitely not traditional pub food. We stayed for drinks and there was a great DJ and dancing. Fun crowd, great music. There was also a large outside patio that was nice.

  21. Rosie McCann's gives the Irish a bad name
    Rosie McCanns Irish Pub and Restaurant is the most inhospitable pub, I have ever experienced. The staff was rude, obnoxious and unreasonable. Simply, Rosie McCanns is badly managed. I personally think the place gives the Irish a bad name and I will never suggest the pub to anyone. Most of all, it destroys Santana Row's reputation for sophisticated drinking and dining. In response to this comp...

  22. bangers and mash
    I've been here a couple of times and each experience was great. I've tried Bangers and Mash; Corned Beef and Cabbage; and Fish and Chips. All the dishes are delicious, but Bangers and Mash is my favorite. The servers are extremely helpful and friendly. I would like to visit the Santa Cruz location.
