Rosy opened its doors in Hingetown (Ohio City) on Feb. 26, 2026 at 2912 Church Ave, listing limited reservations and walk‑in service on its website. (prnewswire.com) The restaurant is the new project from Cordelia partners Andrew Watts and chef Vinnie Cimino; Cimino is a multiple James Beard nominee and was named a Food & Wine Best New Chef in 2025. (prnewswire.com) Kitchen design centers on an open hearth with an intentionally pared‑down rig—Rosy operates without fryers or a conventional stovetop so most cooking happens over live fire. (msn.com) The menu is built as a hyper‑seasonal, ancestry‑forward program inspired by the Istrian peninsula and surrounding Central European coasts, typically presented as a roughly 12‑item, always‑changing shared‑plates run. (nrn.com) Ownership says the kitchen sources primarily from within a 200‑mile radius and local reporting notes roughly 80% regional ingredient use shaping the rotating menu. (prnewswire.com) Rosy occupies the space that formerly housed Alea and seats about 50 guests across communal tables, high tops and a bar designed to let diners feel the grill’s heat.
