Testa Rossa captures the spirited essence of its namesake, “Redhead,” with an inviting and lively atmosphere. This dynamic Italian American restaurant radiates fun through its eclectic décor and thoughtfully crafted menu, which showcases a family-friendly vibe infused with contemporary interpretations of beloved classic Italian dishes.
The restaurant has a mid-century Italian maximalist vibe with bold patterns, vibrant geometric prints, and striking Ferrari red accents. The bar showcases a stunning pink marble horseshoe-shaped countertop with green leather stools featuring black-and-white patterned backs. Cozy U-shaped booths dressed in blue flame-stitch fabric are illuminated by whimsical silver pinecone lamps and separated by playful red-and-white dividers. The space is enhanced by custom-upholstered banquettes and uniquely designed tabletops in lively shades of orange, emerald, canary yellow, black, and white. Intimacy is fostered by solid wood and wallpaper valances framing pill-shaped windows. Terrazzo tiles in bold stripes lead to a charming outdoor patio adorned with scalloped lemon-colored umbrellas and rattan banquettes, offering a delightful al fresco dining experience.
The menu is a mashup of Italian and American cuisine, romantically embracing Italian culinary technique while unapologetically breaking all the “rules” featuring classics, elevated riffs of staples, and new dishes that fall somewhere between.
