I’m up front, working with customers and staff. I really do a little bit of everything and work wherever I am needed,” she says. Rosalie Cervini says she loves getting to know customers as many locals and tourists come to the restaurant. Something that matters to her is her customer’s experience, and she says what is most important is that everyone is comfortable and feels at home. “Some of the best memories for me and so many others growing up are from around the kitchen table. That is what we want for our customers: good memories and good food,” she says. The Cervinis are certainly not afraid of hard work, sometimes having two jobs, working through the summer months, and still balancing family life. The family’s hard work at the restaurant, Rosalie Cervini, and what it brings to them makes it more than a job, but rather something they love.
And, she says even though the restaurant is something that holds her heart, she still loves her career as a teacher as well. “I have been in the classroom for twenty years, and I am grateful to still be there,” she says. An English as a second language teacher for elementary school students, Rosalie Cervini says it’s nice to switch gears at the end of the day and take on a different role. “I love teaching children during the day, and I love to serve quality food when I’m not teaching,” she says. And, what does Trattoria mean? Defined as an Italian restaurant serving simple food, Rosalie Cervini adds to that. She says it is an Italian restaurant that is made up of family, friends, and great food. “It’s the people that make the place,” she says. “We want our customers to feel like family, and we want them to feel at home – more than just good food in the belly.”W
