- My husband and I spent New Years Eve this year and
attended the party in the ballroom. IT WAS FANTASTIC!!!! The music was
wonderful and the food was great. We definitely intend to do this next
year. A Big Thank You from the Warners.
- I am emailing you to see if you still have pictures from last New
Year’s? I just realized that our picture is in there #18 and if you
still have it what can we do to get a copy? We are also coming again
this year and really looking forward to the evening, we enjoyed last
year so much. We do come to the lounge at least once a month and just
love it.
- Great pictures! It was a wonderful meal - very well done.
- Eddie Money concert. Thanks for a great time… Nice to talk with all of
you… Thanks

- Thank you very much for providing us with the wonderful meal and service
for the Mt. Gilead Reunion on Saturday, February 4, 2006. We received
many complements from the attendees which I hope you will pass along to
your staff. The chef is to be commended for his preparation of an
excellent menu and I thank you for assisting us with the selection.
- I went with my husband to your restaurant a couple of weeks ago and
tasted a delicious Osso Buco, but it was one of the specials that night,
not on the regular menu. Do you have certain nights that you serve this?
I would like to go again on a night I can eat this exquisite meal.
- We would like to know when you are going to have Sammy Kershaw back. We
have been married 25 years this year and thought for sure we would see
him there... We love your place and food we love seeing Sammy there. We
need Sammy.
- Hi, We enjoyed your Seafood and Prime Rib Buffet last evening. Each item
was very enjoyable. On the desert bar was a white cake with apricot
filling. We asked one of the waiters what kind of cake it was, as it was
positively wonderful. They replied it was a combination of angel food
and pound cake with apricot filling. Is it possible to get that recipe
from you? If so, I would appreciate having the recipe to see if I can
duplicate the light texture of this cake. We are looking forward to
returning and enjoying your buffet again.
- We had a great time. We will come back again. It was a fun evening.
Thanks.
- I have had some very nice visits to the Red Rose Inn and Suites. The
music, shows and dancing are wonderful.
- Hello: My party of four enjoyed a great evening at the Red Rose
Dining Room on March 25. Our birthday girl was much impressed! Between
Destiny, The Rat Pack Too, excellent service and a superb meal we were
more than satisfied.

service and for the wonderful music and food offered at your
establishment.........

valuable asset! Many Thanks! Have a GREAT day.

enjoyable.

- Dear Red Rose Inn,
We had the best time Saturday 5/17. We drove from Dunedin and I
have to say it was well worth it. The music, show, dinner and the
service were all excellent. Next time we plan to stay the weekend. If
you could please send me copies of pictures from that night it would be
greatly appreciated. We had the table to the right of the man that
handled the lighting. Bill & Elaine and Andy & Mindy. Thank you so-ooo
much and hope to see you soon.

Dining Room and enjoyed the very talented Rat Pak Too and Destiny and of
course the dancing. This was the 2nd time we had our anniversary dinner
at the Red Rose; I think we may be starting a tradition.
Thanks for the wonderful experience at your elegant and entertaining
establishment. I really love what Evelyn and her daughter Rosemary have
done with the Red Rose. They brought some elegant southern class to Plant
City.
Thanks to Dave too for taking a good picture. Sincerely, Janet & Bob

- Greetings!
Last Friday evening 10 of the Quinn family met for dinner at The Red
Rose Dining Room. Two came from Illinois; two from Philly; two from
Alabama; and four from Lakeland (formally from California and
Connecticut). Beside being a great get-together with family, the evening
was the most outstanding dining experience we have enjoyed. Some of us
have dined at places like Scandia's in Beverly Hills, as well as La
Scoffia at The Beverly Hills Hotel; Sorentino's in Burbank; and other
"big hitter's" around the country. This is not a boast for us, it is a
tribute to you.
It started with John, our server, who answered all of our questions as
if he prepared each meal himself. His service during the evening was
beyond excellent (only because "excellent" does not seem to be high
enough of a rating). Every meal I'm told (I only tried three) was
exquisite, both in taste and appearance, and again, John was there with
to-go containers. Should we talk about the entertainment? Wow! We have a
couple of "over the hill" entertainers in our group, and they were at a
loss for words to describe the amount of talent that came from the three
artists known as "Destiny." Bravo! and Brava!
Many thanks, and congratulations on your achievement of such a fine
dinning experience. The Rose is definitely a Class Act!
We plan to see you soon,
Dick & Diane Quinn
Lakeland, Florida
- Hello to the Beautiful Red Rose Inn !!
What a Wonderful Place, Inn, restaurant & food !!
My husband & I just recently came out to enjoy the outstanding buffet &
music !!
Needless to say, we enjoyed it Very much !!
Tracy Monteleone
- To Evelyn and Batista Madonia Sr.
I am sitting here at my computer in my office (and in awe) after
just returning
from one of the most fabulous “evenings-out” that my wife and I have
ever
experienced in our married life.
First, your staff … from the greeters/hostesses, to everyone who
had anything to
do with personally attending to our needs…was outstanding. As for
Lee-Lee, she
could not have been more professional, sweeter, personable or
accommodating.
From the many lunch-breaks I had there two years ago, I remember when
she
first came ‘on-board’. She certainly seems to have blossomed into a
confident and
competent young waitress. I’m sure the caliber of her performance is
both a direct
compliment to your internal training expectations, as well as to her
perseverance.
Our meals… were absolutely exquisite. But, then, after having been
there about a
dozen times in the past couple of years, we’ve come to expect nothing
less. Your chef
never fails to transform our bragging (to friends) into pure,
mouth-watering fact !
The entertainment…Dennis’ Destiny, of course, chose the perfect
dinner-time
selections. And even without the third Musketeer, Ralphie-Baby, the Rat
Pack
still manages to captivate (and involve) the audience with their
nostalgic songs and,
the always entertaining, humor, antics, impersonations and anecdotes.
For as long as successful reputations can be built and sustained by
‘word-of-mouth’,
rest assured I will gratefully continue to play my small role to that
endeavor. I am
sure you’ve heard it many times before, that a simple “Thanks” often
falls terribly
short of paralleling a particular gift, gesture, deed or favor. That
notwithstanding,
I hope you and your husband will accept our sincere and heartfelt “Thank
You” for
a wonderful time at the Red Rose, and allowing us to feel very, very
special.
Very truly yours,
Art and Sheryl Casey
- Last evening (9/2/06) we celebrated my father-in-laws 85th birthday
in the Rose Room. My husband Rocky, Dad John & I had an incredible meal,
as always. We also thoroughly enjoyed the Rat Pack 2. Unfortunately we
did not get any pictures taken of the 3 of us, however my husband
reminded me of a picture that was taken of us June 17th for our
anniversary.
Please email our photo - Rocky & Debbie Luger celebrating their 17th
anniversary.
Thank you very much,
Debbie
- I want to compliment you on such a great evening - the show was the
greatest I've seen at the Red Rose - hope you can get them back again -
and I also want to say what a great dinner we all had (we had 12 people)
everyone's dinner was excellent - I had the grouper special - it was the
best grouper I ever had - and the Filet's some of my people had (which I
tasted) was also the best - better then Bern's - better then Ruth Chris
- the best ever.
Thank you so much - and can't wait for our next trip to your Red Rose
Room.

- Happy Thanksgiving!!
My wife and I had Brunch at the Rose Room today and it was a pure

was Jason. Please thank him for us. We will be back!!

My wife and I attended
your New Years celebration and it was a wonderful evening. We were
seated in the Red Rose dining room and the service was outstanding. I
don't recall the names of our servers but they were excellent. We were
seated at a table on the second level to the right of the television
screen and bar.
Also, our congratulations to your chefs. The dinner was spectacular -
the crab bisque was the best we have ever tasted.
All in all a great evening. Your entire staff is to be commended.
Special thanks to Marc who was very helpful and accommodating.

Well what can I say? I
am so excited to be a part of the Red Rose family. It has been nine
months since I began coming to the beautiful Red Rose Inn and Suites in
Plant City. I have met such wonderful beautiful people and have made so
many great friends. And, wow, do I have so much fun with all the folk's
out on the dance floor. I dance tell I drop. The food is so good and the
entertainment is top's. You don't know what your missing. I look forward
to seeing all my friend's at the Polo Club Lounge and my friends in the
Red Rose Dining Room. Sharon and John and my newest dancing friend's and
Evelyn is at the top of the list. I truly have grown to love all of you.
I wait till Sharon gets out on the dance floor because she's my partner
in crime. Your friend, Margie

I want to THANK YOU
for always treating us like KINGS when we come to perform at your great
place. The service to all our fans is the best ever. It is
nice to recommend a place likes yours. I am not embarrassed after
the show because of the food or the way they are treated. Once
again. my THANKS and praise to you for your professional hard work and
to all the sound, lights and tech's that make everything just right.
You should be proud of all your bartenders, waiters and waitresses,
Maitre' D and Mark. You put a great core of people together.
Let's not forget the great CHEFS who cook to perfection. Thanks
again. Hope to see you soon.
TOMMY MARA
P. S. Thank you for KEEPING THE SOUND ALIVE in our Music
-
On behalf of George
Galfo's Mystics and myself, I want to express our sincere Thanks to
Evelyn & Batista, Sr., for their support for the Doo-wop Music. You are
the backbone of helping groups like us and other entertainers by
enabling us to Keep This Music Alive by having events like the Doo Wop
Weekend not to mention having National acts thru-out the year grace the
Red Rose stage.
We always feel at home when invited back to perform for your guest who
have become our dear friends and we are happy to be embraced by all.
The staff at the Red Rose Inn and Suites are professional and work
extremely hard to make sure all your guests are happy. Your Chef's,
Riccardo and Matteo have always extended themselves to make sure
everything is just right and the food is more than words can describe. I
do not know what I would do without Mark as he is always there for me.
David also has become a dear friend as he makes sure everything is just
right for us. You have a Fantastic staff (bartenders, managers,
waitresses, waiters and the list goes on and on!!) I can't forget our
dear friend Dennis who makes sure the sound is to perfection as does
Darryl.
You have a lot to be Extremely Proud of when it comes to the Red Rose Inn and Suites! It is a Class Act all the Way!!!!

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!WHAT A
BEAUTIFUL DINING ROOM. DENNY
-
The Red Rose Dining
Room is the favorite place for my girlfriend, Aileen, and me to spend a
fabulous night out. We met in this very same room back in 1994.
The Madonias have done a marvelous job of remodeling the supper club and
providing fine dining and top-notch live entertainment.
Having been a disc jockey and an entertainment reporter, it's especially
pleasurable to see national recording stars, including nostalgic Doo Wop
groups, perform in such an elegant atmosphere! Dan Hogan - Lakeland, FL

Thank you...how
delightful...and what a wonderful evening...the food was delicious,
probably the best I have experienced in a very long time.....Music was
professionally presented....and so much fun. the owners came over to our
table and made us feel so very welcome....I certainly will refer my
friends and hope to dine again soon...Barbara Sweeney

Last night, June 22,
2007, we had another great experience at the Red Rose Dining Room. From
the moment we walked up to the Dining Room, until we left after the show
ended, we were impressed. The service and food were incredible. Of
course, the Legends of Doo Wop, completed our memorable evening. We are
so happy to see Tommy back "in his groove". Once again, it was well
worth the long trip from Clearwater Beach to fulfill our DOO WOP thirst.
Hopefully, the Legends will be scheduled again at your place so we can
make another trip. Incidentally, the large crowd seemed to be enjoying
the evening as much as we did.
Congratulations, Bob and Carol Kanjian - Clearwater

Wanted to write and
let the staff and owners of the Red Rose Inn how much we have enjoyed
every event and stay at the Red Rose! From the New Years Eve Event to
Santa's Brunch to an intimate dinner for 2 for our
anniversary....everything has always been perfect! Plant City is very
blessed to have such a wonderful event place. The staff is very
attentive to every detail and the owners, Batista and Evelyn are such
wonderful hosts! I have been to many business and personal events from
Chicago to Germany and the Red Rose is at the top of my list and close
to home too!
Blessings to everyone!...Rick, Susan Lynn, Sarah, Jonathan and Joshua
Lewis

Dear Red Rose,
I must say, My date and I had a wonderful time last night. Your staff is
kind, attentive, warm and friendly, the food is to die for and of course
The Drifters were the icing on the cake and one of my all time favorite
groups. As an entertainer myself, needless to say, I was very impressed
and would not hesitate to come back again and recommend your fine
establishment to my friends.. I want to thank you for our most enjoyable
and memorable evening.
Thank you so much,
Gene Santa Maria
