About Us.

When Laura and Mike Hogan took over the ownership of Rosario’s Italian Restaurant, they brought something to it, authentic recipes and an unyielding commitment to excellence. Together Mike and Laura have made Rosario’s a place that’s more than just a cut above the rest. During the years the lived in the Bay Area, Mike worked in the high-tech industry and Laura was an RN, but dreamed of someday having their own restaurant. When they moved back to Medford in 2001 to be near their family, the opportunity to run Rosario’s seemed like the natural fulfillment of that dream. Laura is Italian and when she needs a new recipe she gets it from her family back in Italy. Hospitality is another Italian tradition embodied in Rosario’s, where anybody and everybody is welcome to stop by and try the deli sandwiches, pasta dishes, calzones and unbeatable wood-fired pizzas. Tiramisu and other unique Italian desserts top off the menu, and everything from the bread to the sauces is made fresh, from scratch. With an extensive wine list featuring some of Southern Oregon and Italy’s finest. Rosario’s was established in 1973 as a small deli and has grown into one Southern Oregon’s best restaurants.
