Well, Italian Restaurants competition is getting tougher and tougher... I remember some years ago when the only decent Italian restaurant in Jakarta was Toscana in Kemang. Now you have a lot more Italian restaurants in Jakarta, you also have Pizza chains like Pizza Express or PEPeNERO and now you also have genuine family italian restaurant, with the Mamma (the mother) and the father working along with the next generation.
In my opinion, Mamma Rosy has 2 main particularities that other Italian restaurants don't have. First it is located in a huge house converted in restaurant. That means you can go in different rooms of the house and you can even rent a private room. There is also a patio which is absolutely gorgeous with a nice decoration. The second thing is that it is a family-owned business. You actually see the whole family working together and serving your dishes.
Unfortunately, the only problem with this restaurant is the food ! Honestly I did not like Mamma Rosy when I went there. I went there with 8 other friends, we had a big table and the service was very poor. The food arrived at different times, that means that some people just started eating when other had already finished. The waiters were not very comprehensive and not really friendly. I tried the pizza and the dough was not salted ! A beginner Pizzaiolo would make this mistake, not a 1948-established restaurant... The food is also pricey since most of the pizzas are above 100K !
