Reviews Summary
Rosita's Mexican Restaurant is celebrated for its high-quality, fresh ingredients and well-prepared Mexican cuisine, with many patrons highlighting dishes like pork tamales and chicken enchiladas. While the friendly service and generous portions are frequently praised, some diners note that prices have increased and occasionally find the food to be average or a bit pricey for the quality.
"I was in the area for Spider Mountain and hit this place because in the middle of the week the places very close to spider mountain are closed.
Absolutely some of the best Mexican food! I was really super impressed (and kind of felt like I was taking a chance since I'd had Mexican in Burnet down the road the night before that was really rather mediocre). The salsa here is great! Everything tasted so good!!!
I will definitely be back for future spider mountain /Reville Peak Ranch mountain bike trips. I had two margaritas with dinner and really felt like it was very moderately priced, especially for how wonderful the food was!"

"Food was acceptable but not great. Service was good. Prices a bit high.
Disappointed however; we had a little one with us that kept asking for chips, it was late and he was hungry and tired, but because he would have choked on them, we requested a flour tortilla for him to munch on til the rest of the food was delivered.
When we got the bill, we realized that we had been charged for the tortilla. I realize that you don’t get something for nothing, but for 4 adults and a toddler the bill was $100; no booze, no extras. A free tortilla would not have broken their bank."

"The price of the food has gone up. I looked online at the old menu. Yalls items went to 4 to 6 dollars, from what I use to pay. Ecen the drinks has gone up. Yall have lost our business."
