Rosario's Pizza - Edmonton

Food was absolutely disgusting, don't order the bruschetta it's nothing more than garlic cheese toast with a side of mild salsa. Service is very poor, server didn't check to see how food was or drink was, only talked to my friends at the table while mostly ignoring my wife and I. When we got our bill, we were overcharged for my wifes drinks when my wife ordered two singles and got charged for doubles. Ambiance was ok. Bunch of theives. Will not recommend and will not return

This place is now called Crackerjacks. So, went for a beer and food with my sis here. Beer specials are a little pricey. When we arrived, I almost turned around. Place looks like a dive; dark, still smells like cigarette smoke, dirty, only good thing is that they have pool tables. Server was a rattlesnake. Ordered a Keith's pint for about $1 more than the other nearest pub. Then we ordered the lunch special, fish chips for $14.99. One piece of fish and a few fries. Terrible price for what you get, very disappointing. Not worth it.

Rosario's is the best. Well, it's the best at being what it is, anyways. That's being the local watering hole and i say this with absolute admiration and respect dive bar. The place is huge, and the decor does not appear to have been updated in literally decades. Peep the Curtis Joseph Oilers poster by the dart boards. Not too say it's ugly or anything, just unpretentious. But that's not why you come to Rosario's. Not for the food either (though I wouldn't say it's bad for a dive bar). Pretty much standard, in that regard. You come to Rosario's for a number of reasons though... #1 is karaoke. Sing your lungs out to a receptive crowd with fellow singers of all abilities, Friday and Saturday every weekend. Break some balls on any one of the many pool tables. Generally you won't have to wait for too long for a table or beware of sharks. Or play some darts on the dart boards I mentioned. The staff is generally super sweet and helpful, too in my experience. Don't expect to get pints of fancy pants craft or local beer, or some high end cocktail but why not order some pitchers of domestic and have a blast with the diverse crowd and take in one of the best dive bars in the area?

So if you're looking for a bit of a dive bar, a sports bar, a pool hall or a karaoke bar, Rosario's might fit the bill. Every time I've been here, it has primarily been because of my desire to attend karaoke with friends, and this is where this place shines. Not only is there a good mix of songs, a good karaoke host (who makes sure you sound less bad than you could otherwise sound) but there's a good range of singers and some song books to pick songs out of along with plenty of papers to write your songs upon to hand to the host. The food and beverage is really inexpensive and not terribly outstanding but is on par for dive bar food so there's that. The bathrooms are useful and clean but nothing special. The interior is a bit dated too, but really you're most likely here to play pool or watch a game or spend time with friends or sing and none of those things prioritize particularly good food (and the drink specials can be pretty good if you're looking for that)! I also like the fact that the staff realize that copious amounts of water are also needed if you're going to be singing. The pizza isn't as bad as one might imagine as well I enjoyed it the times I've had it.

It was OK and did have a decent karaoke area. Only problem was there are no menus and no specials posted so I really had no idea how much anything is. My bill at the end of the night ended up being pricey. Probably wont come back because i just dont like a bar restaurant that has no menu nor prices posted.
