Dining, Entertainment & Shopping

Creekside Grill at 1010 Stanley Dollar Drive is the place to go for a great meal in Rossmoor. This restaurant offers a cozy and warm atmosphere, with unbeatable views of the golf courses. The menu is full of healthy and delicious options inspired by modern American cuisine. You can enjoy a filet mignon, salmon, or a salad. They also have an open bar and a dining patio option.
Il Pavone at 2291 Olympic Blvd brings authentic Tuscan flavor to your table. This family-owned restaurant specializes in Haute Italian cuisine, so pizzas and pasta are a must if you eat here. Il Pavone is the closest thing to a piece of Italy in the Bahia area; its classic and sober atmosphere recalls the Sicilian restaurants of the '50s that have provided so many unforgettable evenings to seniors.
Rossmoor Diner is the go-to restaurant for a delicious meal without going far. The ambiance of this place is very reminiscent of vintage cafeterias where you can get a milkshake and burger; it is this vintage charm coupled with the great food that draws so many residents to this place.
