    My husband and I have been here a handful of times and it has been consistently excellent - a real hidden gem! The food is amazing and the service is great. Highly recommend the margarita flight and queso fundido. So good!

    Tried this for the first time this week, and we were quite impressed. Fresh guacamole made at your table, blue corn tortilla chips, Oaxaca relleno and a burrito al carbon. Delicious! We will definitely come back over evening so we can try their margaritas.

    Honestly, I very rarely leave a review for a restaurant or make the effort to publicly warn people. We went to Rosa Mexican Kitchen today (10/18/2025) around 1:30-2pm and my family and I were extremely disappointed. The food had no seasoning, the sodas weren’t cold at all, we spent over $170 and left completely unsatisfied. We ordered two steak fajitas (mind you, it’s on the “house specialties” part of the menu), we paid $25 per fajita, ordered 3 beers and 2 sodas, one chips and salsa (because unlike most of traditional Mexican restaurants they do not provide chips and salsa once you actually sit down and order drinks), we also ordered some chips and guacamole and a kids burrito. The fajitas were untouched, no one of our family of 5 could eat them - how can they turn Mexican food bad ? That was a hard task… the service was also pretty bad, the server couldn’t quite understand us and always left the table before we were even finish ordering or speaking. It was odd, expensive and the worst part: we all left the restaurant HUNGRY! I guess you are all better of getting food at a good traditional food truck across the street, at least you know it will taste good and it won’t be a rip off
