San Jose: Want to be among the first to eat at Rollati Ristorante? Reservations are now being accepted

At long last, Rollati.

The highly anticipated restaurant anchor for downtown San Jose’s highest towers, Miro, will open for business Friday, 19 months after Vine Hospitality leased the 6,800-square-foot space from Bayview Development Group.

Reservations have filled up for the inaugural weekend, but are available via Open Table for the coming week and beyond. A limited number of walk-ins will be seated.

The restaurant at Fourth and Santa Clara streets — with tableside views of City Hall and its striking dome — is the first all-Italian concept from Vine, which owns and operates the Bay Area’s largest chain of French restaurants, Left Bank, as well as two LB Steak houses, Meso Mediterranean and Camper. The group was founded by noted chef Roland Passot and is led by CEO Obadiah Ostergard.

The inaugural menu emphasizes house-made pasta made in an exhibition kitchen, including Orecchiette di Salsiccia, Rigatoni alla Vodka and Spaghetti alla Limon (with crab and lobster tail options); the house specialties, among them Rabbit Agrodolce, Veal Milanese and Chicken Piccata; two steaks and a Double Cut Pork Chop from the grill menu; four pizzas; and an assortment of appetizers and salads.

Rollati is launching with dinner nightly; there are plans to add lunch, brunch and happy hours soon.

Details: Open from 5 to 9 p.m. Sunday-Thursday, 5 to 10 p.m. Friday-Saturday at 181 E. Santa Clara St., San Jose; www.rollatiristorante.com
