Rosa Mexicano - DC

Great nachos and guacamole!

A little pricey, but so worth it!!!! Excellent experience!

Great food and excellent service in a really nice but casual place. Steps from gallery place metro.

Best table side Guacamole anywhere!

We always love dining at Rosa when we get to visit D.C.!

Out with family. Good experience food was good also

Service was spotty and inconsistent and it was not a busy night.

👍🏾 it was a great time for my wife and I

We had a great meal on appetizers. Perfect on a perfect-weather Sunday.

Didn’t get seated until 25 min after our reservation

Excellent guacamole! Great margaritas and flautas.
Will be back!

Great food recommendations and excellent service

Drinks and guacamole are both great. The food was not hot, disappointing.

They didn’t have the churro French toast - which was why my 9 year old picked the restaurant

Menu is varied and interesting but the carnitas were...bland.

Great service, food, location! I like valet parking also1

Delicious Mexican food and an upscale operation. Loved the chicken enchiladas with the mole poblano sauce. Can’t find those at most Mexican restaurants. I’ll be back for more soon.

We did make our reservation. We called and told them on a recorded message we were running late.

They sat us right away which we appreciated because the restaurant was very busy because it was right before a Capitals game.

Thank you for still accompanying us!!

Food was excellent!

Will was an amazing big server, the managerial team was top notch, and our food was tasty. The minor issue we experienced was eclipsed by the staff’s professionalism. I’ll definitely go back.

Authentic Mexican food upscaled with regional varieties.

The food was good and the chef did a nice job of accomodating my wife's dietary needs. Our guests were very pleased, as were we.

Excelente food

Rosa Mexicano DC always delivers. It was super busy but our waiter Javier did a great job taking care of our table!

Food and service were top notch. We will be back often.

We waited a bit longer than I think we should have had to wait for our reservation however it was very very busy. Once we were seated the service was excellent.

Waaaaaay too loud, could not hear table partners talk. Too few wait staff for busy time before Caps game. Lost order delayed our meal service and did not have time to finish our meal in time to make the game (arrived at 5:15 to make a 7:00 game); but at least the manager made it right by reducing our bill, which was appreciated.

We were disappointed that our drinks arrived after our entrees

Delicious. Love your place!! I always enjoy eating in your restaurant and bringing new friends to sample your fare!

The service was just ok and the crab enchilada had a very fishy taste. I also was able to try my friend's steak quesadilla and the small sample I had contained a lot of fat.

The place was a mad house in the lobby. Even with a reservation we waited 30 minutes to get seated. The lobby was so crowded it was impossible to walk around. Once seated the service was very slow and when the food was served it was warm to almost cold.

I’ve eaten here many times and this was the very first time I have seen the place in such out of control. Very disappointed in the experience.

We had reservation for 7:00 pm and arrived at 6:50 pm. When we checked in the host said it would take 15 minutes to get us a table. The 15 minutes went by and we still did not have a table. I asked the host and he said the table was being cleaned. In the meantime he kept giving tables to other dining guest. My wife asked him why it was taking so long to clean the table and he said he could not kick out the people at the table, so we had to wait. She pointed out that he was seating other dining guest as they came in and we had a reservation for 7:00 pm and it was 7:30 and we did not have a table. He said we made the reservation online, so if we wanted a table we had to wait. With that we left the restaurant. At 7:49 I received a text that out table was ready, 49 minutes after the reservation time. I did not know there was a difference if you made the reservation online vice calling the restaurant. If that is the case then why bother with OpenTable?

I made a reservation back in January for my wife and myself. Got there at 6:25 my reservation was at 6:30. We saw how people that came after us was given a table then came a woman saying to the manager I called from the metro for a reservation , you asked me to be here at 6:45 , table for 4. To our surprise she and her party were seated a few minutes later. What a disappointment , now we know not to go to Rosa Mexicano .

Overall a nice experience. The usual, over price food.

Our waiter, Javier, was fabulous. He was attentive, knowledgeable, polite and did not rush us.

Food was good as well as ambiance.

We love coming here when in DC but the noise level is too loud to have a conversation.

Everything was delicious & the service was wonderful.

I love the food here. We went in before a Capitals’s game and it was packed - no surprise. I did have a reservation so we got seated promptly but it took awhile for our server to get to our main course order. When our meals did come they were lukewarm. They evidently had been sitting. Since we were in a time crunch I dint send it back. The food was still good. The guacamole and drinks were great. I’ll be back and chalk this up to how but they were.

The Tablones I received was a very small portion (especially for $34). There was meat on approx 1/4 of the bone. And of the “meat” about 1/3 was just fat.
I can understand fat on a spare rib, but for such a small portion and a $34 price tag, it was too much. Perhaps if the whole rib had meat and quarter was fat, that would have certainly been more acceptable.

Surprisingly we went during a busy time-Caps game and the staff was very accommodating. Fast but great service. Will definitely go again.

Great restaurant to go to before an event at the Capital One Center. Food excellent - the pomegranate margaritas are exceptional. Table-side guacamole delicious.
