  • replying to u/starsamaria: Years ago I had enchiladas from Rosa Mexicano that I don't even understand how they were so bland. Also had the steak and eggs brunch at St. Anselm: they cooked the steak wrong and the portions were pitifully small, I was still hungry.

    Omg the fish tacos I ordered at Rosa Mexicano would have been disappointing at an Applebees. Fried hockey puck fish sticks on a dry bed of cabbage wrapped in a flavorless tortilla.

    Still scarred from my meal at Rosa Mexicana a couple months ago. I knew it wasn't going to be great but we had a large party last minute so it worked out. The waiter wanted us to order before even half the group looked at the menu and everything was rushed yet the entrees were still so cold.

    Everything is bland and tastes exactly the same. There are no different flavor profiles among the dishes!

  • replying to u/snark-as-a-service: I had probably one of the most godawful shrimp tacos for way too much money at Rosa Mexicano last month. I should’ve taken a picture of it it was so pathetic. Rubbery tortillas, sad flavorless shrimp, and probably three shreds of cabbage.

    the service but it was also most mind bogglingly bad/confused I’ve ever had

    Rosa Mexicano: where the mild, medium, and hot guacamole all taste exactly the same.

  • Rosa Mexicano is fine, good drinks and meh food, but pretty decent chips and guacamole.
