1. Direct + Detailed Food is hit and miss, service was a…read moreproblem I've been here 4 times in the past 7 days specifically for tripas, lengua, and cabeza. Not once were any available. At this point it feels like bait and switch -- why put it on the menu if you never have it? The low rating is mainly for the young lady at the register. She was rude, spent the whole time whispering to a guy who works there and laughing while looking at me. Felt disrespected as a customer. Found Beto's down the street instead. Decent food, decent prices, and they actually serve what's on their menu. Won't be back. 2. Short + Punchy No tripas, lengua, or cabeza. Ever. 4 visits in 7 days. Zero times did they have tripas, lengua, or cabeza. Starting to think the menu is false advertising. Register girl was rude too -- whispering + laughing at me with her coworker/BF the whole time. Beto's down the street has better food, better prices, and no attitude. Go there instead. 3. Balanced but Firm Frustrating experience Food here can be okay when they have it, but the inconsistency is a problem. I came 4 times in one week hoping for tripas, lengua, or cabeza and was told they were out every single time. If you don't carry menu items regularly, take them off the menu. Service also needs work. The teen at the register was whispering to another employee and laughing while taking my order. Made me uncomfortable. Beto's down the street doesn't have these issues -- they stock what they advertise and the service is solid.

I felt that burrito was not balanced- a bit dry.. although I know if has potatoes in that probably makes it drier. The next time, i wanted to give another chance with an asada super burrito. The size was decent. I could split it with two people. However, i still felt like something was missing and it was not a balanced burrito that I hope to get from a burrito place. The individual ingredients did not really stick out to me and it was an okay burrito.

It is located at the Northgate area in a shopping plaza so lots of parking spots. Very impressive interior decor! It is very welcoming and visually pleasing! From the ceiling plants and lighting to the wall murals, it feels comfortable and very tidy with lots of dining tables. I ordered for to-go so was actually tempted to stay and eat-in but had to get back to work. For the food, ordered the following: ***All Day Lunch Special $14.55 (credit card) 3 street tacos (2 steaks and 1 chicken) 5/5 With rice and beans includes a drink ***1 Street taco (chicken) $3.38 (credit card) 5/5 The meal was delicious! The street tacos were very tasty and flavorful!! The staff were very courteous, friendly and accommodating. Very good customer service! Will visit again. Highly recommend so check 'em out!

Plenty of free chips and unlimited dips. Hot sauces, salsa are all different flavors and hit the taste buds hard!! Everyone was checking on us every few mins! Felt like we were eating in their home. So loving. Food here always been top notch. We ordered many times (via DoorDash) but sitting there and eating the food was a different vibe. Ordered a few different tacos, tostada and super nachos (with chicken). Their meat was seasoned to perfection. Actual flavors and not just salt. A bit pricey for each taco but the portion of taco is huge and honestly two did the job for me. Give it a try

It is a traditional taco spot, with the meats being cooked in front of you, with a topping station off to the side. Some meats may not be available if you arrive early, so keep in mind what you'd like. They have a 2 for 1 special on tortas on Tuesdays. It comes with tomato, avocado, lettuce and a cheese shirt around the meat. My favorite is always the al pastor since it's on a traditional trompo. Parking is street parking, or in the lot nearby. You'll see others parking around as well, but keep in mind they dont have set seating so it'll probably be to go unless you chose to eat standing.

The tacos tasted great, but I left feeling confused about the pricing. The posted price for pastor…read moretacos was $3 each. I ordered 4 tacos and one large drink, paid with a $20 bill, and received only $1 back. No receipt was provided and no explanation of the charges was given. Good food is important, but so is trust. Customers should receive a clear total and a receipt when paying. Unfortunately, that was not my experience.

What an amazing experience! My wife and I stopped in for lunch, and everything exceeded our…read moreexpectations. I had the shredded chicken burrito, and it was absolutely delicious--fresh, flavorful, and one of the best I've had. My wife ordered the caldo de res and loved it. The salsa bar was fantastic with plenty of fresh, tasty options, and the homemade chips were warm, fresh, and addictive. The restaurant was spotless, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the service was incredibly fast. Everyone we encountered greeted us with a smile and made us feel genuinely welcome. Great food, great service, and a great atmosphere. We'll definitely be back and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for authentic Mexican food!

All day lunch special is my regular order. 3 street tacos rice and beans for $14. Cannot beat that. I love a salsa bar and this spot has a good one. 5 different salsa options from mild to paint thinner, endless chips, pickled carrots and fresh crema and limes. It's literally every Mexican food junkies dream.

I have thouroughly enjoyed the variety of fresh ingredients and range of syles of food here. The cocktails are a little above a dive bar. Good, but not incredible. I was slightly disappointed by the pastor taco. The meat had been sitting out for awhile and had dried out in the warmer. There are some other interesting options now, like butter chicken. It is not a traditional mexican place, but a bit of fusion here and there. The service was very attentive and the bartender was quite friendly.

You're greeted with a fun atmosphere, friendly staff, and an energy that makes you excited to be there. Since the restaurant was especially busy, we chose to sit at the bar. There was no wait, and the high-top seating was surprisingly comfortable. Our server was welcoming and attentive, and the service was fast from start to finish. Between the great music and lively atmosphere, you can't help but want to dance while you eat! I ordered one of my favorites--the chicken sope. It was perfectly crispy on the outside while still soft and fluffy on the inside. The chicken was packed with flavor, and the rice and beans were just as delicious. The salsa that came with it was the perfect finishing touch, adding just the right amount of spice and an extra kick of flavor. My hubby ordered one of the carne asada dishes (so sorry, I forgot the name!). He said it was one of the best cuts of meat he's had at a Mexican restaurant in a long time--super tender, juicy, and full of flavor. We had such a fun night! I definitely recommend Rosa Madera--10/10 for a date night, girls' night, or any excuse to enjoy great food and an even better atmosphere.

I found Rosa Madera when searching for "queso" in Yelp...(I really was wanting some queso)…read more Anyways, funnily enough, I read through the menu when I got here and ended up getting nachos in place of the queso...that's fine though, it gave me an excuse to come back another day. It's a nice looking place inside, especially considering its general location. They were busy even at an off hour mid-week, but I can see why because the food is great and so is the atmosphere. My first visit, I tried the following: Enchilada Verde (Lunch Menu), Mini Birria Tacos (Lunch Menu), and Nachos de la Casa (with asada). They also brought out complimentary chicharrones de harina, which was especially nice because I was super hungry! My second visit I had the following: Queso Con Rajás Dip, Los Favoritos, and the Burrito de Carnitas (Lunch Menu). I ended up liking the nachos way more than the queso. I wasn't expecting the queso to just be the consistency of slightly melted cheese. I also wish they were a bit more generous with the chips since I ran out of chips way sooner than the dips. No complaints on my main dish portions though! Really loved most things I've tried. The presentation of my dishes I've ordered here, the Enchilada Verde and the Burrito de Carnitas, was great too. The chicken was just slightly too dry for the Enchilada, but the flavor made up for it. Only complaint is while the service was nice, it was SO slow both times I've been here. It took forever to get the check and when they did bring out the card reader you can't see the receipt, only a total. Then their lowest automatic tipping button is set at over 22% (with two higher percent options), which is honestly crazy to me since most places start at around 18%. I way overtipped on accident the first time I came. I think it's highly likely they get overtipped for this reason, which is nice for them but kind of not fair to the customer. I'll continue to return!

The shrimp burrito was recommended by a friend but it lacked flavor. The mild green salsa that accompanied it was good, but still didn't elevate it. The shrimp itself were plump and tender, but I've definitely had a better burrito. My husband got the asada burrito and he didn't say it was good or bad, which means it wasn't anything special, just edible. Also tried the al pastor street tacos and the carnitas street tacos. The carnitas were dry. Al pastor was fatty. Maybe I just came at the wrong time since the reviews are pretty good, plus it was recommended by a fellow foodie....who knows. Maybe if I'm back in the area, I can order something else and give them another try. Maybe.
