“Good food and a good atmosphere. They have outside seating which is nice if the weather agrees. The combo plate is the way to go since you get to try a little bit of everything.”
“Lugar muy recomendado, la comida está muy deliciosa y el servicio es excelente. Aparte el lugar está muy bonito. 😊”
“Highly recommend this place! Reminds me of Texas! True TexMex!”
“Arturo was absolutely kind and helped me choose a simple mango margarita, if I had more time I would have done the upgraded margarita. But genuinely a kind and chill place for dinner, a calm drink, the mood and ambiance is so nice. Staff is attentive and I see them constantly cleaning. Abel helped me place my food order to go but I cannot put into words how much I appreciate him letting do a food order after the kitchen closed. He got my shrimp burrito dinners out swiftly and he was very nice! On my way out, I got to meet Maria, the owner of the store and such a welcoming and kind soul. Feliz navidad Maria, your staff is as kind and friendly as my family from Peru 🥰🥰 have a great holiday, you will see me around again!”
“Super nette Bedienung. Dazu super tolles Essen und tolle Atmosphäre. Eines der Besten Restaurants in Rosement, wenn nicht sogar das Beste. Kommen nächstes Jahr gerne wieder, wenn wir in der Gegend sind.”
“I was on the hunt for authentic Mexican food and this was not it. The bean soup was unseasoned and didn't have anything besides beans onions and cheese. The guacamole, salsa Verde and ceviche were fresh and and delicious! My husband salad was drenched in dressing which made it unpalatable.”
“This is not Mexican food. I do not know what cuisine this is. • The chips and red sauce are terrible. • The red sauce tastes exactly like pizza marinara, not salsa. • Steak tastes off and gamey. • Chicken is dark meat, shredded, and not disclosed on the menu. • Tacos are buried in cheese and lettuce. You cannot even see the meat. • Tortillas are clearly house made but badly undercooked. • Tacos fall apart from excess toppings. • $5 extra for green sauce and limes is ridiculous. Overall, poor quality and bad execution. I would not return.”
“We love eating here at Maria’s😍 Just don’t go during rush hours if you don’t wanna wait too long for your order. Otherwise we recommend it.”
“Friendly staff and great food and ice cold cervezas.. easy parking.”
