   Mediocre Mexican food. Good service, however. Tableside guacamole and drinks are good. However the food is not very impressive particularly the fajitas. You can definitely get much better food for significantly less money and many other places. Not as posh as the one I’ve been to in Manhattan, but again same food

   Spicy sauce was requested to be on the side and came on food. Was not given beans and rice till almost done with tacos. Asked for water and that came after the bill.

   I didn’t appreciate the Host seating us at a table when I requested a booth. Then she lied and said she had many reservations of 4 people. There was so many tables of 4 open ALSO there was a couple (2ppl) sitting at a booth. Nonetheless, food was really good and my waiter had great customer service.

   Our family has been coming to this restaurant over the years to celebrate special occasions and this time our experience was so disappointing. The restaurant was clearly understaffed so the service slow. Our waiter was nice but was too busy to check on us. Having worked in the service industry I don’t fault the wait staff because they can only manage what they can and they work hard. It’s management’s responsibility to ensure there’s enough coverage to make sure their guests have a good experience. When the food finally arrived every meal was cold. At this point we just wanted to eat and leave. This unfortunately is our last time coming to this restaurant.

   Since it was Dia de los Muertos, I had high hopes for the menu, but I was let down. The options were the same as the regular diner menu, offering nothing special for this festive occasion. It felt like a false advertisement. The food quality was declining, even though we had to return the item we ordered. I suspect that the chefs aren’t tasting their dishes before serving them. They should also include more vegetarian options.

   “The experience at the restaurant was disappointing. The service was decent, but the food, despite being well presented, lacked essential elements. The place looked neglected, and even the burned lights bulbs hadn’t been replaced. Very weak atmosphere, and I don’t plan to return. I was surprised by the level of neglect, especially since I usually enjoy the branch in the city.”

    Last night’s experience at Rosa Mexicano was awesome. Hector is an outstanding server and a true shining star. Thank you Hector for making our dinner so memorable. The dinner was delicious. We ate guacamole and queso fundido for appetizers. Enchiladas and pork belly pibil tacos for our main course. So good. The manager Maryann was great too.
