In 1980, Rosine's Restaurant was opened by Jim and Rosine Culcasi and their children in Monterey. It was an instant success and the family shared in the work, from cooking and baking to serving and greeting. Rosine's quickly gained notoriety for their delicious homemade soups, hearty meals and sumptuous array of homemade, award-winning desserts. The third generation has now joined the family business.
