Rolbertos is good, quick food and its open anytime. Who does love a great burrito at 3am? The Adobada burrito tasted great and came out fast. Staff was friendly. read more

We were driving to Utah and needed some gas. Whole their getting gas, we thought we'd go ahead and have some breakfast. This place is located at a Sinclair gas station, so it's a convenient location. They have a pretty big menu. I opted for their steak breakfast burrito. I personally didn't like the burrito. The one thing that threw it off was their "Fries" in the breakfast burrito. It was like undercooked sliced potatoes. The fries didn't look fried at all. It kind of seemed boiled or baked. Since we were in a hurry, I didn't bother trying to get a refund or to get it remade. If looking for some Mexican food, I'd look somewhere else. read more

Stranded at Love's with car trouble and not wanting roller weenies, we ventured here. The young man behind the counter was helpful with the menu .... So many choices. We had the Carnitas Plate and the Quesabirrias. So delicious. Will definitely stop here again on our way thru Ely!! read more

My daughter and I stopped here on our way home and boy were we surprised. I got the carne asada burrito and it was great. The meat was tender, the burrito fresh, the salsa incredible, and it was a meal all by itself. If you ever come through here it is well worth your time. My daughter had lengua tacos and she said they were incredible. They were fresh, with incredible cilantro. Next time we come through here I want to stop by. This place is worth stopping by. The portions are great, and the food is amazing. read more

Rolberto's for me is a must stop when I do my annual fishing trip to Eastern Nevada. Well worth the 6 hour drive!! Can't miss on the Wet Chili Verde Special. I have my sights set on the #7 next time I stop in. Service was fast and courteous. Highly recommend Rolberto's, wish they had one closer to home. I think I'll give the Winnemucca location a try next time as well! Yes! It's that good!!!! read more

This is a feast for the taste buds after some time in the desert! The food is delicious and fresh with a salsa bar. We had the Tres Leches cake and WOW! Portions are generous and the salsas are varied and a wonderful compliment. read more

Rolberto's caldo siete mares. I've been ordering siete mares since they had started offering it in Ely location. I could say that it is one of the best seafood soups. Today, January 1, 2026, I was looking forward having siete mares for welcoming a great 2026 . Soup was watery. Not flavorful. No taste. Very bland. Disappointing!!! I did not touch it anymore. Since I didn't want to waste a $20 seafood soup, I asked for a container. I told the lady to just try it and she'd notice how watery the soup was. She came back and offered to refund it which I am thankful coz I don't know how I'd save the soup. Anyways, maybe today not a good start for their 2026. My hubby ordered carnitas tacos... it was good. My son ordered sausage burrito and it looks pretty good. read more

We stopped in while waiting for our EV to charge next door. We ordered a fish burrito and a vegetarian burrito. Everything was so fresh and delicious, and their self-serve salsa bar was great. We enjoyed it so much that my husband insisted we go back to pick up breakfast burritos the next morning on our way out of town. Everyone was kind and helpful, and the breakfast burritos did not disappoint. read more

. The people were nice, good salsa bar. I had a chile relleno burrito and added cilantro and onions. A big Burrito. The only thing that was off was the chile relleno itself. It was ok. read more

Stopped here on the way home from Vegas. It's actually better than expected and we didn't have to pull over for the rest of the journey to deal with "consequences" if you know what I mean. It will be a regular stop along this journey for the foreseeable future. Get the chicken or beef crispy tacos and use the green salsa. Skip the rolled tacos. read more

Rolberto's is a solid 3. Five of us went on a busy Saturday night for my friends birthday. I let waitress know it was his birthday and we would like to sing him happy birthday etc. and in the end she did not come through with anything you would aspect or actually anything at all. She was however on top of it with our drink and food orders. The atmosphere was very Hispanic and noisy. The food was solid Mexican with plenty of Hispanic patrons. That says a lot. I'll be back for another try. read more

Food was awesome, service friendly and not expensive. Some of the best machaca I have ever had.

Had some pretty killer menudo here after blowing a tire and getting stuck for a few days. Really lifted my mood.

This is Mexican fast food with a mini market. Lots of choices on the menu and daily specials. Great prices. We ordered the chicken tacos with beans and rice. Two loaded tacos, piping hot. All the required toppings. Served with delicious rice and beans. Also the large pork carnitas burrito with was the biggest burrito I've ever seen and it was not the largest on the menu. Came with a drink. There is a condiment stand with all the traditional Mexican toppings. Took half of the burrito and most of the beans and rice to go. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner. The food was piping hot, very flavorful and made to order. delicious! read more

Worth a visit if you're in Ely! Delicious and filling food, and salsa bar. Cozy booth seating. Clean restrooms. Ordered the mixed breakfast burrito and topped it with salsa verde and pico from the salsa bar. Staff were friendly! There's also a drive thru in case you're on the go. Photo of the steak ranchero, because in typical fashion, my tummy eats first. No photos of my food. read more

So it's not Margaritas (at Prospector hotel)... So they'll serve you. Food was good, restaurant was dirty. The amazing...carnitas taco The good... the horchata The mediocre ... shredded beef burrito The meh... Mexican rice and refried beans (from a can?) The eww... the tables The disappointing....sold out of flan and tres leches But at least I got service which was quick... food was hot. read more

Me and my dad are driving up to Boise from California. Long drive. About 9 hours in we wanted some lunch. We stoped in Ely since that really was the biggest town that we were going to pass through. Now at first you look at Roberto's and it looks a little sus and run down. We were a little nervous because its a small drive through building attached to a Sinclair gas. We walked in and NO ONE was in there. however the inside was quite nice. A very good salsa bar and nice booths to sit in. Also side note: it's about 90 degrees and it's was nice and cool in there. Very comfortable. we ordered: I got the chicken fajita veggies, and my dad got the chicken taco and cheese enchilada plate. Food came out pretty quick but a good wait time to know they made it then and there. we got our food and EVERYONE started to come in. Personally I can claim that was the BEST chicken and fajitas that I have ever consumed. The chicken was grilled to perfection. I did not ONCe get a bad, chewy or fatty piece of chicken. The veggies were also cooked to perfection. A perfect char to them. There were peppers, onions, and tomatoes that were just magnificent. With that, I decided to get all rice just because I really enjoy Mexican rice. However, I tried my father's beans and once again they were good. Nothing crazy but good- same with the rice. Now for the tortilla. It's probably not but it definitely tasted homemade. And it was HUGE. Overall I highly recommend going here. I even have leftovers because the portion is pretty big. read more

Good food and friendly service hit the spot after a long day of driving. It was a short walk from the hotel tucked inside a former Sinclair Gas convenience store (fuel is still available). Family ordered the super burrito which is essentially the veggie burrito with Carne, although you can specify the type of protein you want. I got the burrito bowl which came with rice beans guacamole pico de gallo lettuce sour cream and carne asada (grilled beef), which was essentially the same as the super burrito but without the tortilla and it came with a fountain drink. Prices were on par for most of the tacos shops we visit in both Washington and Arizona and all places in between. The fresh salsa bar is hidden under a lid and kept chilled. Had cucumbers and pickled carrots (zanahoria con chili) to add to our supper. Will definitely make this a regular stop on our way through Ely. read more

Don't do it! The only redeeming quality was portion size. Massive amount of food that was mostly wasted. My wife barely ate hers. Nachos were bland chips with some melted cheddar on top. Chicken burrito was too salty, all dark meat and some of the worst red sauce I have ever had. I did like the refried beans but rice was not tasty at all. Food came fast but that's about all I can say about the service. Totally dilapidated inside. Couldn't wait to get out. Not sure why the reviews were so good. Would have been better off going to McDonald's next door. read more

Yummy and fast lunch stop on our road trip. Adobado tacos were excellent. On the spicy side, so not for the faint of heart. Friendly staff.

Passing through this town I found this little gem. Their tacos are HUMONGOUS!!!! I ordered 15 for our group staying at a nearby hotel. We ate by the pool. I also ordered chicken taquitos, churros, chips and salsa, burritos...and boy I had enough to feed an army for a fraction of the cost... all the items were fresh and delicious. We had so many leftovers...we ate more on our drive to the Great Basin Nat'l Park for stargazing.... If you are in town, you must fill out your tummies here!!! Especially with kids! There is a large grocery store next door that was nice to drop by and pick up ice and any snacks for the drive..... read more

The taco salad we tried at Rolbertos was excellent. The chicken was delicious and came in large sized pieces. The dressing and beans were both very tasty. It came in a tortilla shell that was hard to stop eating. Yes, that good. Service was great. The dining room was a bit crowded as there is a small store inside. Definitely will be back when we are passing through. read more

I ordered takeout through the drive through and I don't know maybe it is because I have lived in San Diego and Phoenix, but I did not find the food all that great. For one thing, the quesadilla I ordered was sloppily put in the container so it was a huge mess. I just have had way better and I maybe chalk up the high reviews to there being no better option for Mexican in Ely. I will give them credit for large portion sizes but I would take better quality over size. It is kind of a hole in the wall and if you use the drive through expect huge pot holes to avoid unless they finally fix those. read more

Stopped by here for lunch while driving through Nevada. This place was worth the trip! We had carne asada and chicken burritos and my husband says it was the best burrito of all time. Giant portions and super flavorful and loaded. Great salsa bar as well. You won't be disappointed. read more

On our way to Idaho for a hunt and starving...until we found Rolberto's!!! This place is exactly what hunters need prior to starving for 10-15 days! We are never going to pass this place for anything. Nicest people inside and great customer service. Got the Fajita Mix Platter and it was outstanding read more

Food was amazing! Got burritos to go but would definitely eat there next time. Don't be scared of the outside or inside appearance.

Stop it. Stop your car, stop your truck, stop your yammering and put this food in your mouth. Our sunset dinner, in our car (after cruising through their drive through), was incredible. My husband said, "I think this one of the best burritos I have ever had." My 5-year old told me that she wanted to create a holiday called National Rolberto's Day- in which you would celebrate by eating food from this place for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. FYI: Apparently it is supposed to be celebrated on Leap Day?!? (I cry foul.) A massive amount of piping hot food was handed to us by a kind masked lady who offered to add 4 different varieties of salsa to our bag. We opened up the bag to discover the most delicious crusted bits of juicy carnitas (we got a side order for the kids), side orders of delish rice & beans, a HUGE smothered shredded beef burrito, and the machaca burrito mentioned above by my hubby. Once the food was put into everyone's hands the car went absolutely silent ....for a moment...then it was "yuuuuuuuuuum", "so goooood", "oh my gosh"...bite, swallow, rave, bite- over and over again. We finished it off with some churros that were filled with delicious strawberry yumminess. Don't tempt us, Ely. We just may move from Seattle for Rolberto's. Now excuse me while I unbutton my pants. read more

I was in a pinch, trying to advance my trip out of Ely and having built, oh, 15 minutes total to kill to get dinner before going to a motel with no food around. So I needed something fast and didn't want a chain. Thanks, Roberto! I unfortunately missed the specials on the wall; it's a standard fast food place except it's all Mexican dishes, so it's very order for yourself and not a customized waitstaff experience. But the #20 I got to go was good, had a nice chile pepper inside and a boatload of adobo chicken. I forgot to grab a fork and/or they forgot to insert utensils, but they gave me wrapped shells (I asked for corn but these were flour....... main reason for the minus star) and those were helpful in picking up most of the food. Mini soft-shell tacos! By accident! The flan was interesting - a slice of a large one instead of a round small one. Not the absolute best flan I've had but since that was the dessert they had on hand, that's what I got. (I'm not a flan person in general, so that's on me.) Overall opinion: if you need food on the fly, or if you're following Highway 6 and not going through downtown Ely on 50-93, this is where you'll want to stop. read more
