“Mamma mia” is the word on the block. Last month, Forest Hills scored its newest addition to its diverse culinary scene with the opening of Rosalia’s Pizzeria at 103-15 Queens Boulevard in Forest Hills, replacing the longtime restaurant Al Dente. At 41 years old, a family man named Joseph Romano, who was born and raised in Bensonhurst and lives in Staten Island, opened Rosalia’s Pizzeria. “I began getting involved in the restaurant industry at age 17 by selling fruits and vegetables to restaurants, pizzerias, catering halls, and institutions, which I continue to service today,” he explained. “I love the restaurant industry very much, so I opened a sandwich shop in Bay Ridge 10 years ago, and after two years, I decided to sell it and open pizzerias in New York City.” After spotting a vacant storefront, he recognized the potential of transforming it into something unique.
