Introducing Bobby, the new Owner of Rosebud Lemont 🍝

If you’ve been around Rosebud long enough, chances are you already know Bobby—or at least recognize him as a familiar, welcoming face. Today, we’re proud to share that he is now the official owner of Rosebud Lemont.

His journey with Rosebud began in the early '80s, when Friday nights meant dinner at Taylor Street with a group of friends. What started as a tradition turned into a calling.

He met Mr. Dana when he was just 17 years old and began shadowing him daily, soaking up everything he could. “I would follow him without saying a word, just hoping to see what he sees—but you can’t, because he’s a restaurant savant,” Bobby says. “If I could be even a quarter of what he is, I knew I’d be great in this business.”

Over time, he naturally stepped into a leadership role—keeping an eye on the dining room, checking on quality at our locations, and always helping wherever needed. Bobby eventually bought his first restaurant, Nana’s, from Mr. Dana, but Rosebud has always felt like home.

To him, Rosebud isn’t just a restaurant—it’s a legacy. A place where friendships are forged, traditions are honored, and excellence is expected. He says, "to be part of this brand is like playing for the ’85 Bears."

Let's celebrate Bobby in the comments! 🥳
