Rosita's Mexican Restaurant

*This review is for Rosita’s on Eckhert, yelp has the address wrong* The owner of this place, Enrique (Henry) Martinez, is easily one of the most rotten people I have ever met and in my opinion should not be running a customer based business. I have genuinely never been more astonished and shocked at a business owners behavior. He needs to become a better man for his business and families sake. This is going to be a bit of a LONG one, but it will help you understand who it is that you are truly supporting when and if you decide to spend your money here. My wife and I have recently found out about Rositas, & have been coming rather frequently over the last few weeks because we live close, & the food is good for the price. But every time we come, there seems to be confusion among staff about their chip policy ($5 for chips if not in accordance with your order) which is understandable because they are homemade & delicious. The problem with this chip policy, is that the rules change every visit (per waitress), & they are not clear & concise across the board. The menu states that chips come with plate (singular plate & does not designate bkfst or lunch) order, the stickers plastered all over the restaurant say that chips come with plate(s)(plural) orders after 11am, but also does not designate bkfst or lunch plates. On todays visit, our waitress decided to change the chip policy on us at least 2-3 times while we were dining in. At first, they came with the bkfst plate, then 5 minutes later, the person who orders the plate has to ask for the chips, then a few minutes later they did not come with the breakfast plate AT ALL, and THEN when we tried to get clarity, they tried to tell us that our order was put in at 10:59 which it was but c'mon man? Regardless of the ever changing policies we, we were going to be charged. I became slightly irritated as anyone would being told they were going to be charged after they said they were not. I then asked the waitress if they could remove the chips off of the bill due to the miscommunication, in which she replied I can ask the owner. For us, it isn't even about the $5, its about the concept and taking accountability for the fact that your policy is messy & all over the place. We sat there for the next 10 minutes, with nobody approaching us, no explanation, and no type of apology for the misunderstanding. We figured the only way to get anyone's attention was by going up to the register & paying, which we did. While paying, I asked if the chips were removed, they were. I thanked the gentleman that charged us, and expressed my discontent with him, to which he attempted to defend their loose policy by stating that the menu said plate(s) plural which as of today it does not. While signing the bill, the owner came to clean off the table, finally approaching the situation he had previously avoided. While he was cleaning off the table I glanced over, and he pointed at the chip policy sticker on the booth and said "its right there for you to read." in a very aggressive, standoffish, degrading tone to both of us as if we were illiterate. As a family man & protector of my wife, I was not going to let that kind of behavior toward us slide. I approached Mr. Martinez, and said "I need to speak to you sir." The first thing I asked him was, "do you not think that your actions toward my family were degrading or insulting?" to which he replied "no its on the sign, just read and pay for what you order" I then tried to explain to him, that the policy is not clear enough for the customer to understand, that's why we got to this point, but he was having none of it. Mr. Martinez then went on to further insult us by stating that "its people like you that want free stuff that make it hard to have a business." at this point I was furious, I just got generalized into a category and narrative that was completely false, as mentioned we had eaten here before never had issues paying for anything. All I was ho

Great food and service

Rosita’s Mexican restaurant has been open for eleven years. This family restaurant offers a pleasant home bright atmosphere. Its interior design is simple and enjoyable. A crew of friendly staff welcomes you right away.
The menu includes an extensive list of items and options to measure up your appetite for original Mexican food. Prices are accessible and they offer food by the pound to go. They are closed dinner.
Our meal was excellent. Custom prepared exactly. Flour tortillas are thin and we prefer those. Corn tortillas are hand made and these make bigger tacos.
We definitely recommend Rosita’s for your next Mexican food lunch or breakfast all day experience.

Yesterday was my first visit to Rosita's. I wasn't sure what to order, and the manager suggested Brisket and Eggs plate. I love brisket, and I'm sort of a brisket snob. Food was served quickly. The big slice of brisket looked juicy and had perfect bark. It was fork tender and had a great smoke flavor. It just melted in my mouth! I hadn't expected such delicious brisket at a Mexican food restaurant! The corn tortillas were homemade and delicious! The manager said that his father is the pitmaster. Check this place out! Very affordable pricing, and a super clean restaurant.

This restaurant is a family favorite! Not only is the food is amazing, but the service as well! My dad and I go every weekend and we are greeted with smiles. When family comes in to town and asks for good “breakfast tacos” we always say “Rosita’s!”
Great food and service every time. A good meal is guaranteed. Love this place!!!

Unappealing watered down menudo, served with dried out limes and no other accompanying condiments. When the complaint was made the owner came to our table and was immediately combative. She said we should have asked for a sample first and said 30 plates of this same menudo had been served that day without a single complaint. Another member of our party also complained about the greasiness of her tacos and the owners response was “that’s what napkins are for.” Overall not a good experience. Will not be returning and definitely not recommending this place to anyone.

I've only been coming here for a couple of months, but the food is great! They greet you when you enter the door and the service is fast. You will NOT find a better place to eat than Rosita's Mexican Restaurant! I highly recommend it to everyone.. you'll love the food!
P.S. I almost forgot, you gotta try the brisket tacos.. I think they're better than Bill Millers.

My daughter picked up tacos this morning
I requested carne guisada and cheese. All of my tacos were cold. When I called to let them know. The gentleman suggested that adding cheese would be one of the reasons due to cheese being cold. A good carne guisada fresh would do the opposite. Cheese would be melted not the other way. I’m very dissatisfied and as to him suggesting I bring it back to be remade. No thank you.

Visited based on recommendations to try the brisket, and it did not disappoint. We were greeted with friendly, welcoming service and informed about the specials. We ordered the brisket lunch special—chips and salsa came out first, and the salsa was amazing with bold flavor. The brisket plate was absolutely delicious, with smoked brisket, flavorful beans, and rice. Our server mentioned her father smokes the brisket, and you can tell it’s their specialty. My partner also loved the huevos divorciados. Overall, it was wonderful service, great prices, and delicious food. We’ll definitely be back!
