Santa Rosa has quickly become one of my favorite local Mexican restaurants…read more The food is always good. The service is also exceptional. Even on a busy day like Cinco de Mayo, the staff really held their own and remained friendly and attentive. The overall vibe is usually a bit more chill but on holidays it does get lively. In fact, Cinco de Mayo was one of the busiest and most lively I've seen the restaurant. Even with all the extra foot traffic, quality service was still upheld. I finally ventured out and tried their hard shell tacos (with beef). They were a little on the plain side but for $9.00, 3 hard shell beef tacos did what they needed to do. With some cilantro, queso and salsa, the tacos were brought to life. As always, the margaritas were great! I usually only need one - so that's always a good sign. Price points are incredible. I really cannot rave more about how affordable this local spot is. I'll continue to visit and try more of their menu. They got a long term fan out of me!

The only thing is the lunch menu isn't flexible with side, I don't eat beans and couldn't switch it out but overall it was great and I will be back to try more things!

We were greeted right upon entry and there was plenty of seating around. They have a diverse menu with plenty of options for people who both enjoy spicy food and non-spicy food. They also have a full bar if you would like a drink. The overall ambience is very cantina like. They have wooden chairs wooden tables and a bar at the center. They do have some very colorful decor around as well. Staff was friendly throughout. I opted for the burrito and it was ginormous and I definitely couldn't finish all of it. Definitely well worth the price point for the amount of food that you're given. Everybody was very happy with their meals and drinks and I'll definitely be returning to this location. Overall: A+ Easy to see why this is a local favorite. Definitely will be back for more off of the menu!

It is always busy after work because the place is that good. On our recent visit we ordered a beef dip to have with the chips and salsa. They also have a tasty guacamole on the menu. For drinks we've gotten the pitcher of margaritas our last two visits and it really is the perfect amount for 2 or 3 people. Each person gets at least 2 glasses full which is a great value for the price. Things we like: Pastor Tacos, Nortenos Tacos, Tacos Gringos, queso dip, and the rice and beans with the main dish. Service is always wonderful, the staff is attentive and helpful if you want recommendations. If the dining room looks full, try sitting at the bar and you'll be right at home.

I've already visited Las Carretas about 3 times now, including 1 visit with my in laws. It is a…read moregreat restaurant to visit if you are looking for that fun Mexican restaurant atmosphere. They have a HUGE menu with many classic dishes and also offer table side guacamole. Their alcoholic beverage options are plentiful, but my recommendation is the Pima colada served in a pineapple, which comes either blended or on the rocks. I also enjoy that they offer a freshly made salsa bar as well as chips and salsa for the table. My only caution is that since this location is relatively close to UCG, it can get very crowded on the weekends, especially holiday weekends.

The good: Drinks, my husband's mole chicken, ambiance…read more The bad: The Taco Soya - vegetarians beware! This place is huge on the inside. It's fun and comfortable. Service was great - food was fast! My husband and I each got specialty margaritas - we ordered "small" and were glad! They were pretty big. The mediums must be huge. Drinks were delicious and had a ton of fruit inside. My husband loved the mole chicken and the bean dip that comes with the chips was yummy. I, however, should have stuck with the beans. As a vegetarian, I decided to give some love to the soy taco option. It had some good reviews from 4-5 years back and I try to support creative veggie food when I can. I make tacos with a soy food product and they're delicious, so I was hopeful. I should have refrained. First of all, they looked pretty gross. Little pink lumps, not at all what I was expecting. I added cheese and ordered them in soft corn tortillas (they come in lettuce). It was so bland and had an unpleasant texture. But it also had this fake smell to it. I added salsa, thinking it would help. It did not. The pinto beans that came with it were also pretty bland. I barely ate one of the tacos. It's been a long time since I couldn't eat the food I ordered. They should stick to beans and rice. I also got a cheese enchilada from the à la carte menu. That was good! All in all, I might go back if I wanted a fruit salad in my margarita, but I will absolutely not order the soy tacos again!

The second thing I need to talk about is the QUESO. I ordered the Queso Crunch Tacos with steak, and they were so delicious! That queso really made it fantastic. The hot sauce wall was so fun to look at! They had some sweet sauces also so it wasn't necessarily just straight up HOT sauces. I also loved the decor and playlist they had going on here!!

Chips were great, cooked perfectly. I had the enchiladas, which I order at every Mexican restaurant I go to. There do only offer 2 sauce options the mole and a jalapeño cream. So they don't really have a spicy one, as I love a nice green chili sauce! I felt these were a bit dry and lacking enough sauce on top. The rice was clumped as well. Overall though, I did still enjoy it just not necessarily my favorite. I asked for the sour cream to come with but the server did not bring it out until basically after I was done eating and she still charged me :( I would still be down to come back and try it again! If you are in the area this makes for a good lunch stop as well.

We were craving Mexican food and decided to try this independent local place. The servers were…read morefriendly and helpful. The complimentary chips and salsa were fresh and tasty. The house margaritas were too sweet for my taste. I was excited for the birria tacos after the rave reviews but the beef was dry. Same with the chicken in our other dishes. And everything seemed a bit bland. Weirdly, the next days leftovers tasted better. I want to give this restaurant one more shot. I'll ask for my margarita to be less sweet, and I'll go later in the evening to see if the meats are fresher cooked and more juicy and tender.

I'll start by saying that ... in reading some of the "negative" reviews on here ... people really…read morewill find anything to complain about. I love Mexican food. This place is a hidden gem!! If you're driving too fast on the 436, you will easily pass it. It's tucked back off the road, look for their blue sign or the inflatable tube man (that is usually waving its arms in the wind). Service is excellent, super friendly and welcoming. The spot is always very clean and inviting. Traditional Mexican music videos playing on a few tv screens, nothing too distracting...adds to the ambiance. We've tried quite a few dishes here and have never been disappointed: chicken enchiladas with house "special sauce", shrimp and mushroom enchiladas, the chicken tortilla soup is really flavorful and LARGE, grande burrito, chimichanga, and we always order guacamole. They never have a lot of customers (I would assume because of the set back location), I hate sharing one of my local favs but, I definitely want them to stay in business!

My only complaints would be that the music is a little loud, and with the restaurant being packed, there doesn't seem to be much acoustical treatment to help with the noise, so it can get a bit overwhelming. Our server also could've been a little more attentive throughout the evening. Other than that, we had a good experience and enjoyed our dinner!

This place is definitely made for people who eat with their eyes first. The hanging flowers, greenery, moody lighting and gorgeous decor will have you taking tons of photos before you even look at the menu. We started with drinks. I got the Amor y Vida and it was as pretty as it was delicious. The tajin rim gave a nice kick to this sweet drink. I need to come back and try more of their uniquely presented drinks. For food we started with chips and salsa. Give me chips in a flowerpot and suddenly I am fancy. Then we ordered the Tostones and Plantain Roll with Salmon. Just a heads up, do not order any additional meat or seafood with the Tostones. This dish is fabulous on it's own. The Plantain Roll was an unexpected combination that my tastebuds thoroughly enjoyed. It was definitely not your typical sushi roll. We sat at the bar and our bartender took great care of us. Between the environment, creative menu and friendly service, this was definitely a fun experience. I would suggest you come hungry, but make sure your phone is charged because at this spot, the camera most certainly eats first.

Shoutout to La Patrona Tacos & Birria House in Rosemont, Orlando!…read more What an amazing find! We brought our family friends here for a Taco Tuesday-style dinner, and La Patrona absolutely delivered. Being the closest spot to where they were staying made it convenient, but the food made it unforgettable.
