Rosa Mexicano

From the "terrific" tableside guacamole to the "habit-forming" pomegranate margaritas, the fare's "reliably delicious" at this "always enjoyable" Mexican trio; while tabs can be on the "pricey" side, "attentive" service and "lively", colorful settings make dining here "feel like a party."

Rosa Mexicano Restaurant Review

The West Side location of this upscale Mexican restaurant was designed by David Rockwell and features a 40-foot water wall as well as a floating staircase. Chunky guacamole is made tableside in lava rock bowls and you can wash it down with a potent classic margarita or the signature pomegranate margarita. For appetizers, start with the queso fundido, melted Chihuahua cheese with crumbled...

The Scene
It's hard to miss the dramatic aquatic centerpiece in the David Rockwell-designed interior. A huge water wall, pieced together with thousands of azure blue tiles dotted with...

Best place for frozen margaritas! They are super strong and delicious. Try their signature pomegranate margarita, literally amazing. It is not too sweet, and just the right amount of tart. Love their famous guacamole which comes in a stone pot and fajitas. We sat by the bar so we could people watch and the bar was packed! The only concern was that the bathroom had a very strong odor, which the...

I love the food from here, but this is the first time we ordered for delivery instead of eating at the restaurant... The food is really good and the delivery service was somewhat within range. But what's really odd is how few tortillas they give us. Like 3 tortillas for 2 grown ups... And I don't see the option for "extra tortillas" either. Being from Mexico, I know that there's no real mexican...

It's been ages since I've wanted to go to Rosa Mexicano at several of my friends' recommendation, but this is the first time I've managed to squeeze a quick dinner here into my busy New York schedule.

Don't order from them if you're hungry -- yesterday's order took 1 hour and 40 minutes to show up -- lukewarm.

Absolutely the worst "mexican" food I've ever had the displeasure of eating. The guacamole has too many fillers and isn't mashed enough. The tacos are just awful. The carnitas pork is just chunks of fat, not pulled and shredded like it should be. Plus the salsas are inedible and taste stale. I really wanted to like this place because I live around the corner but it's like a low rent version of...
