  Really great food, super impressive for a chain restaurant! I was not expecting everything to be so fresh, everything was amazing from the table side guacamole to the carne y pollo al carbon.
  
  From taste to presentation, overall a great experience

  The worst restaurant service I have ever experienced in my life. We made reservations and still ended up waiting but that was't the worst part. We waited over half an hour until someone came to our table to take our drinks. We ordered guacamole and the guy doing the guac did not even care to ask us about what ingredients we liked. However, the tables surrounding us all were asked beforehand. Needless to say everyone around me and my partner were white (sorry about bringing the racist card up but it has to be said). Everyone surrounding us was white and were catered to but because we're hispanic we get the short end of the stick.
  
  Our order was incomplete and we had a server come and try to bring us the elote after we ate (sorry but no).
  
  The general manager Aaron Barredo came to our table to ask us about how we'd enjoy our service for the night and I expressed to him that it was the worst service i've ever experienced. Just plain horrible. They decided to charge the drinks on the house and we paid for the elote we did not eat. Their salsa is the store brand "Tostito"... unoriginal and cheap.
  
  My advice: DO NOT come here. Their food quality is mediocre for the price and their service is exactly up to par with their food quality, mediocre over all.
  
  Racist and undeserving of your money.

  Recently I was in the mood for a cheap and predictable dinner. Naturally I asked a family member if they wanted to go out for Mexican Food.
  
  Now there are plenty of Mexican Restaurants in the area and you know what to expect: free chips and salsa, a selection of Mexican Beers, and lots of rice and beans on the side of the main dish, all at a reasonable price. Rosa Mexicano was suggested.
  
  Walking into the restaurant, I was taken aback by the fancy artwork, dim lights, and cool vibe. They even had water falls running down the walls. I'd never experienced atmosphere like this in a Mexican Restaurant; my jaw hit the floor.
  
  Opening up the menu and having a cursory look at the prices sent my jaw crashing through the floor and into the depths of the Riverside Square Mall. I figured if Rosa wants THIS much for Mexican Food, she'll make sure it's exquisite.
  
  Oh Rosa, why do you mock me with your flavorless salsa, overly salted enchiladas, burnt tasting churros, and one measly bowl of rice and beans to share between two people? At least the $16 table-side prepared guacamole was good.
  
  Look, if you're hankering to enjoy an overpriced burrito while surrounded by waterfalls, call Rosa. Otherwise, you're only one Yelp search away to discover more reasonable options.

  You can never go wrong with Rosa Mexicano. I've been to the other locations in the city and was never disappointed and this place was also very good.
  
  Came on a Sunday afternoon and this place was nearly empty which was perfect for us. We had the guacamole to start. One of the staff pushed over a cart with a stone pot and other items and made the guac right in front of us.  It was super fresh and delish.
  
  We had the Hongos which was portobello mushroom tacos. Portion was generous and it had lots of flavors. We also ordered the salmon and it was cooked to perfection, crispy on the outside and cooked tendered inside, served over sautéed kale and corn in this creamy sauce. Very tasty.
  
  I also had their red sangria which was enjoyable
  
  Service was also good. Prices were slightly steeper than other Mexican place but you also pay for the ambiance and quality
  
  Overall a great meal. Will return for sure.

  Rosa Mexicano is anything but rosy. Came here for a friends birthday and while we had a ton of fun and the wait staff was extremely friendly and fun, I was hugely disappointed with the beef brisket tacos I ordered. The meat was dry and the mix of vegetables beneath made absolutely no sense... lettuce with carrots..? And some raw stale onions on top. No not working. I tried to salvage them with some leftover salsa we had and my side of regrows beans, but this only made it edible. The side of corn was honestly better than the main dish.
  Margaritas were great and the atmosphere is energetic, but let's just say I'll only be going back to Rosa if another persons birthday literally obligates me to.
