Review #1 for Rosa's Plane Food
Yeah the food is good but the waitresses leave a lot to be desired. They fight in front of the clients for who ordered the food first also Rosa only treats the male customers fine the women she could care less about eventhough our money she takes just fine.

Recommends: carne asada plate

Ask for the special!
The food at Rosa's has gotten a little expensive, but if she she's you there a little more often, she cuts you a break on the price sometimes. A secret that not everyone knows about is her daily specials. She doesn't post them anywhere so if you don't ask, you'll never know. Carnitas is the most common special she has. In fact, she has it so often, it should just be a regular menu item. She also will have Chile Rellenos, Bistek Ranchero, albondigas, caldo de res, and other soups.

Recommends: Ask for the specials.

Great food...service sucks!
The food at Rosa's is great...but it is a bit pricey. If the place was cleaner with some fresh paint on the walls and decent waitresses (dress code & attitude) I wouldn't mind the price. I guess they know the service sucks so they add the tip to the price. One thing that might help is for the to serve the food all at once in a timely manner instead of bringing each person's plate every 15 minutes. By the time the last person gets their food the first person had been done for 10 minutes. If you plan to eat there make sure you have at least 1 1/2 hours to enjoy your food. And don't complain until after you get your food...you never know what the secret ingredient might be.

Recommends: Enchilada plate, ceviche de camaron, pollo asado plate.

I love it,...
I only go once in a blue moon, but there is no better carne asada plate in Calexico, I guarantee. The Steak that Rosa brought out eclipsed my plate, the beans and rice were great, the tortillas freshly made. Now at 14 bucks a plate, I am not complaining. I had to take food home, that never happens. Great chips and salsa, ice ice cold beer from the buckets. Nope, can't complain about the music sometimes being a little loud, there should be no rush when you go to eat there. It's not fast food, its good food.

Recommends: Carne Asada plate, flour tortillas, chips and beer.

Food is good but service is THE WORST!! and you would think they have time to clean up the place I mean its allways empty and its allways dirty. I would call sanitation department but I dont know their number.

Review #7 for Rosa's Plane Food
Great tacos and cold beer!
I was first introduced to Rosa's while working at the Vons down the hill a few years ago. Yes, the service isn't the best, but when you're coming off night crew what else are you going to wait for? Now I go on Saturday's and plan on spending some time there. Rosa has always been there and has always come over with hugs and kisses and has made small talk with us. The food there is great and even out beats La Fonda and El Zarape, which held up high on my list. Not much for atomsphere, but I'm there for the food!

Recommends: Taco plate, carne asada, steak quesedillas, oh! her homemade chips with limon sprinkled on top!!!

Review #8 for Rosa's Plane Food
NOT GOOD!
SERVICE IS AWFUL! THE FOOD IS DECENT AND, OH YES!, TOO EXPENSIVE. ONLY BEEN THERE ONCE AND WILL NEVER BE THERE AGAIN. THE ONE TIME I GAVE IT A TRY THE PLACE WAS PRETTY MUCH EMPTY AND THE WHOLE PLACE WAS A MESS (I.E. TALBES ALL DIRTY, PAPERS ALL OVER TABLES, CHAIRS OUT OF PLACE). MUSIC WAY TOO LOUD AND THE LIGHTS DID NOT WORK PORPERLY. I THOUGHT IT REALLY LOOKED LIKE A "CONGAL".

Recommends: I DO NOT KNOW.

Review #10 for Rosa's Plane Food
Food is second to none; service leaves much to be desired
The simple fact is you don't go to Rosa's for attentive or fast service. The long wait aside, it's worth the money and stands up to all the hype. As a lover of shrimp and seafood, I've sampled nearly every Mexican seafood joint in the Valley and find Rosa's to rule the roost. The ceviche is by far the best item on the menu and is unmatchable, only beaten by Laguna Azul in Mexicali.

The second best item is the filet, or cabreria. It's the most tender cut and most perfectly cooked piece of beef I've had in the Valley yet. It's a filet mignon cut lengthwise rather than the standard medallion. Not only do you get more than you would at places like Chinala Palace Steakhouse or the Town Pump, something price is significantly less for that dish.

Hell, even the Rosa's burger is better than anything on the Burgers and Beer menu.

Rosa's is not overrated. And yes, it can be a little pricey, but for a great meal once a week, it works just fine.

Recommends: Shrimp ceviche, cabreria (filet mignon), Rosa's burger, quesadilla con carne asada

Review #11 for Rosa's Plane Food
Completely Overpriced, Completely Overrated
The food here is decent but not worth the price.

It is a little inconvenient because you have to drive all the way to airport to get there, and the place doesn't seem very big either.

I've eaten here twice, and both times wanted my money back.

If they cut the prices in half, then it'd be worth it.

Recommends: Carne Asada
