Good food and margarita 👍🏽
The food is consistently great! Love the manager Paul and all the servers! Great service!
For the price you pay, you would think you would be getting a good portion. Not much mexicano quality food, moreso americanized. The service and staff are amazing especially the presentation and setting. If you go there, go for the drinks and environment, not so much the food.
The food, all of it, was great and our waiter was terrific. She was very accommodating and patient.
We went and were able to dine outside for our wedding anniversary, it was lovely and Rosa is our favorite
Terrific meal after a covid year anniversary of limited dining. We ate outside, and while it was a little chilly, amazingly delicious snide the restaurant looked entirely full! We asked the server about this because we thought NJ had a 50% occupancy rule. We were told the restaurant WAS at 50%- the back was empty and the front was full! Seems to us that they’re kind of missing the point here!
It again, it was wonderful to eat there- terrific pomegranate margaritas, delicious carne as ada and awesome guac. No complaints about the food- just get your act together on COVID- it’s not over yet!
Never disappointed when I visit this establishment
Professional staff, great food, and safe environment!
The food is amazing drinks are amazing and staff are so friendly
Happy Birthday Cloey!
It was really good. I loved the place, staff and food!
It was good the margaritas are a little sour and they don’t have burritos! Overall good experience and nice staff!
Solid experience and consistent food quality.
We were late and they held our reservation - much appreciated! Servers was very nice. Although we were going to order dessert they dropped check without even asking.
Solid place all around. It is perfect for a date or just a regular night out. Food is fresh, and you'll find plenty of selections on the menu - something for everyone.
Food was amazing, I had such a great experience. We did not wait long before we can actually order.
We enjoyed the entire experience very much! Excellent food and services👍
Food is amazing and drinks are even better. A must go to!
Excelente servicio y la comida increĂble
Enchiladas suizas are my fav there
Food is always good. We’ve been coming here for years.
Good ambiance, food was good, excellent service.
Love Rosa, best Mexican food around
The food was delicious. Waitress was extremely polite and professional but I ordered food to go and specifically requested no mayonnaise on my tacos due to an allergy. And 2 out of three tacos had mayo. Didn’t have the time to drive back so that’s why then overall experience wasn’t perfect.
Graduation. Our server was excellent! Food was amazing.
Another great experience at Rosa Mexicano Riverside Square! Took my wife for a pre-New Year's Eve dinner, just the two of us, and Rosa Mexicano did not disappoint. The restaurant was extremely clean, and practiced social distancing and all measures to prevent the spread of COVID19. Our meal and service were absolutely superb. Our guacamole appetizer was fresh, tasty, and elegantly displayed. My chamorro pork shank was the most beautiful piece of art I have ever seen. Again, elegantly displayed, fresh, and oh so tasty. My wife adored her enchiladas suizas. The rice, beans, and plantains were amazing! Did I mention how good the frozen margaritas were??? AMAZING!! A must for détente or to take the family!!! Paul the manager does an amazing job, his staff is wonderful!!
Love this place for quick reconnecting time, great drinks and guac made fresh upon ordering. Margs are great but $17 each is a little rough
Though the service was great as usual, the food was not good at all. I have been here over the years and I was not impressed with the food this time around.
Seating was well spaced so never a Covid concern. Service great and all the food excellent. Menu full of interesting options. Will return and definitely recommend
Needed night out with the family. Felt very safe and everyone was conscious to keep their distance. Well done.
Guacamole, plantains & churros are a must.
We had 2 types of street tacos (steak & fried zucchini), flautas, 2 Bowls of guacamole, plantains, and churros. Everything was delicious!!! We love going because we know we are going to have a great meal!!! The carnitas are also amazing
Just want to say how nice everyone was from our hostess who greeted us to our server. During this odd time with the pandemic, we just wanted to say an extra thank you.
Rosa Mex totally redeemed themselves from a previously poor experience we had. We decided to give things one more shot and our meal was amazing. Rosa Mex is back to being our #1!! Did a great job with social distancing as well.
I go here for the amazing frozen margaritas. The food being great is a plus.
Amazing food and service. We will be back.
The Guacamole was not very tasty tonight we order med and seemed very mild was very disappointing
Always an awesome experience eating at Rosas
Great food and drinks!!! Awesome guacamole and churros
Great food, service and staff!! Love it and will definitely be back!
Very nice restaurant to go with family. We had a really nice time. Our waitress was very friendly and professional.
Not very good quality or flavor, despite long wait (ordered pork shank understanding it takes longer to make). Totopos were fresh, refrescos were nice but a little too sweet. Shrimp tacos and chicken quesadilla were flavorless. Tres leches had coconut flakes and berries - definitely not authentic. Service was average. Had high hopes but would not return at lunchtime, if ever.
