   Everyone in my party was delighted with their dinners. The tableside guacamole preparation was interesting and the guacamole was delicious. Everything loved their dinners and our server was super friendly.

   We went for lunch. Would have liked to have seen a breakfast burrito on the menu. We had ordered cocktails and when they were brought out we missed one. Had to wait for for than 5 minutes that get that one. The cocktails were good but the food was so-so. One soup was only luck warm and those who had ordered the deep fried rolled up tacos thought they were dry and not very good. Would go back for the cocktails but not the food.

   Appetizers were very good. Main plates were fair, and they were served barely warm which makes me believe that they were prepared, and sat for a while before the servers brought them to the table. We waited a very long time for the main plates to be served. We ordered dessert which was okay, but our table was never cleared, and dessert was served with all of the dirty dishes still on the table. This was the second time I tried this restaurant. I was underwhelmed the first time but decided to give it another try. I don't think that I would return.

   Food was okay; service wasn't. Enchiladas and queso were quite good. Entree was delivered while we were in the middle of eating our starter.We asked our server for salt. She simply disappeared. Server brought check without asking if we wanted dessert. We ordered the flan---a mistake--very burnt tasting, though when we told server, she took it off the bill. Restaurant was a mixed bag--would consider going back for the food, but service so erratic, that it's not really comfortable to think about going back.

    We had a great dinner. Waitress was very friendly and helpful. The service was quick. Our seat was spaced well from other diners. It’s very pretty in there. I would definitely go back. My pomegranate frozen margarita was so good. The complimentary chips and salsa were yummy. We shared an appetizer and it was good, I forget what it’s called. We both had tacos; I had shrimp and my friend had the beef. It was noisy which other reviews said. Not the biggest deal; we had an early meal.

    The food is generally pretty good—we got guacamole, shrimp tacos, and an enchilada. But the experience is not worth the cost. It was so loud in the back dining room that it was difficult to hold a conversation, and the quality of the food and drinks is not so high that it meets the price.

    I have been to other locations and the food was fantastic. The guac was good. The ceviche was not edible and covered in thick sauces unlike described on the menu. Lamb tacos were OK. Ordered the pomegranate iced tea and got black tea.

    Food was not appetizing and our server was not attentive. Also I spoke with the hostess before arriving to my table about sending over a birthday dessert for my friends. She said that the server would be informed about the dessert but the birthday dessert never happened.

    Guacamole was terrific along with the ceviche. The chopped salad was mediocre at best. Dessert was not a traditional tres leche cake. More like pound cake with strawberries. Margaritas were delicious.

    Wife and I went for our Anniversary on a slow Monday night. Started off with the waiter approaching our table and asking if we were ready to order. No drinks, no apps, nothing, just put your order in. We hadn’t even had time to look at the menu yet. We told his we were not ready to order food yet and my wife ordered a drink. He then left the table. Didn’t ask if I wanted a drink or an app. We had to call him back to the table to place my drink order and apps. Wife got the guacamole. HEAVY on cilantro and onion. I got the queso, which was a block of Velveeta topped with a small amount of another cheese to hide the velveeta. Wife had the chicken enchiladas. Again, HEAVY on the cilantro. Like they chopped the entire plant and placed it on top of the meal. She said they were “Ok”. I tried them and wasn’t impressed. Large bowl of Mexican rice on the side, topped with, you guessed it, copious amounts of cilantro. The taste of the rice was good after removing all of the excess cilantro. I had the New York strip. It came with one small cooked onion and some flour tortillas. The flavor was tasty, but the overwhelming majority was fat and gristle. Not a good piece of meat at all. It would have been nice with some rice or a veg. Overall I give a 3/10. Will not be back.

    We were tremendously disappointed in Rosa Mexicano. We had reservations and were seated within 10 minutes of our reservation time. Great start to our evening. It was all downhill from there. Our server was pleasant but remained completely elusive the entire evening. She neglected to bring our drinks for nearly 25 minutes. When we got them, my husband’s beer was almost warm and my frozen margarita was no longer frozen. Our guacamole was okay - under seasoned but fine. We asked for chips and water refills at least three times but never got them. When our food arrived it was barely warm. Awful, awful experience. The manager was kind and apologetic and acknowledged our concerns were valid. We won’t go back.

    Food was fine, but the service was very poor. It took a long time for the drink orders to come, several people were brought the wrong food items, the guac was made and served but we had to wait 5 minutes for the chips.

    Was so excited to try Rosa Mexicana .took my sons for a birthday dinner. What a disappointment! 30 minutes after ordering a pitcher of red Sangria we were told they didn’t have any! What? A Saturday night at 6pm and no sangria in a Mexican restaurant with a large bar??? Bartender doesn’t know how to mix one? Then ordered table side guacamole to be told they only have 1 person to make it so can they make ours in the kitchen! What are you thinking! Why not teach more than 1 person how to make guacamole?? Then after waiting 40 minutes for our entrees a new waitress came to tell us our waiter had an “emergency “ and had to leave! Then asked if we ordered yet! Needless to say, not a very enjoyable dinner. 😩

    INEPT is the only word to describe the “manager” after our server was nowhere to be found by any of the staff. Could’ve walked out without paying and probably should’ve had it not been for my conscience. Supporting local from now on for this cuisine on the Mainline

    We loved our server but he was overworked. My main complaint were the prices and the spice level. A double order of guacamole shouldn’t be $28. Our fault for not noticing that. We asked if the mole and Mexican rice were spicy and were told no but it was too spicy for us.
