I was on holiday from the UK and I asked if we could eat Mexican food one day while I was there. We visited Rosa Mexicano and I can honestly say it was the most wonderful experience. The service and quality of food was exemplary. It is a bit of a long way to come back, but I most definitely will, the next time I am visiting. I also adored the frozen margaritas. Thank you for such a memorable time.
Was a bit busy during lunch. Chips and salsa is complimentary. I had the chopped cheese alambre taco, tortilla soup and spicy chicken taco. Food was delicious. Had a pomegranite margarita which was tasty and did the job. Service was a bit slow even though we were at the bar. All in all a nice vibe.
I had planned to go somewhere but the website said opens at 2,they do not serve food until 4,very misleading Lillies.
I saw the sign for Rosa,decided to try it. Was in the mood for a hamburger the price was reasonable
WOW so happy I did. Greeted warmly,seated in a quiet spot. Terrific server,brought out sala,chips,immediately.
That hamburger I was in the mood for was delicious. Great dressing,just the right amount of heat. The Cucumber mint mocktail was very excellent. I will absolutely come back here.
Good food, fun atmosphere, friendly service. My friends and I came here to celebrate a birthday, and the host graciously let us move over to a booth once one opened up even after we were seated.
We ordered a pomegranate margarita, regular margarita, Italian Coke, and a sparkling water. Margaritas were strong and not too sweet, just the way I like it. We ordered the guacamole for an appetizer, which never disappoints. For food, we ordered the enchiladas, fish tacos, and -I know this is going to sound like sacrilege- the cheeseburger with fries. Everything was delicious.
This place has been one of our go-to restaurants for brunch, lunch and dinner for almost a decade. Even though it seems to have changed in quality and style under new management, we still enjoyed ourselves.
Pro-tip: the tacos do not come with a side, so I would recommend ordering either rice or some veggies to complement any taco dishes.
All in all, I recommend coming to this casual and fun Mexican restaurant for celebratory events or a casual meal with friends. Enjoy!
Great news is that they are open late and have very delicious food. The enchiladas and the nachos were both delicious and I recommend that you try both. Atmosphere is very good, comfortable booth with dim lighting. The waiter was very friendly and fast. We did get chips and salsa when we first sat down.
A suprisingly excellent restaurant! The tacos and guacamole were excellent! Service was friendly and responsive. Venue had good vibes and it was clean. Will definitely come back again and recommend this to friends
Rosa's used to be much better - and I mean years ago. We used to go to the one on Second Ave for special events. Alas, much has changed. It feels very "chain like" now rather than the authentic feel of before. Menu items are now main stream, and have retained only a bit of the prior authentic Mexican taste. This review is for the Union Square location. Service was excellent, although the bar orders took way way too long to arrive. It was not busy. Food was quick and the waiter solicitous. The table salsa was really good and so was the tableside guacamole with bacon. Safety tip, medium spicy at Rosa's is the hot from other places. I had the birria tacos. Very greasy. The corn tortilla was soaked with oil even without the sauce. Flavor was OK. I also had a michelada. It was just OK. Definitely have had better. Pomegranate margarita - once their signature - is still pretty good. The other item we had was the shrimp tempura tacos. They were good, not great. The presentation of everything was very nice. To be fair, I'll keep going back now and then, maybe out of nostaglia, but it is no longer the best Mexican food around.
Overall rating: 4.6
Listen, I can understand why this has a low rating. But I saw NPH here on Cinco De Mayo and obsessed.
I was surprised, but the chips were really good. I went here years and years ago and I’m okay to admit it, but they’ve gotten better! I had the birria tacos which were okay. Nothing to rave about. Is this authentic food? Probably not. Is it good food? Um depends who you ask..
But this is definitely an after-work hang with your coworkers, large birthday party with a lot of friends that aren’t really your friends, group party vibe.
Delicious brunch! Loved the atmosphere and being able to sit and chat with my friends for ages while we ate. Plus, there were so many vegetarian options; I loved the huevos rancheros.
It was a very nice place. I ordered blood orange margarita and beef brisket enchiladas with Mexican rice and I received a complimentary bowl of tortilla chips with salsa. Everything was great. I need to come again to try their special guacamole 🥑
Update: I tried their guacamole and I loved it. Really highly recommend!
