Is was delicious amazing services I recommended this place
BURRITO
I really enjoyed the chicken burrito I got at Taco Rosa because it was seasoned perfectly and the chicken was cooked well. I had it along with the salsa and that made the perfect combination. I will definitely come back with my friends in the future!

Stopped by for a late lunch Haven't been there in long time and I was really impressed by the service and good menu. I highly recommend this place . I Will be returning soon Enjoyed the Tacos de Chile Relleno!
BARBACOA EN GUAJILLO TACO
Right when you step foot in the door you are emerged into a authentic and fun mexican atmosphere! You can't help but study the other patrons plates as you walk to your table. I wish it was acceptable to eat every meal of the day here. My favorite is the Barbacoa or Al Pastor taco's. Friendly and knowledgeable wait staff as well! Can't go wrong!
BURRITO
Some of the prettiest, and best tasting mexican food you will ever have the opportunity to eat. Splurge a little and also get the Cadillac margarita. It is simply the best margarita on earth, I will fight any man who says differently.
DE POLLO EN MOLE ENCHILADAS
Have visited several times, food always good & fresh. Service is superb! Pleasant place!
LOBSTER ENCHILADAS
Lobster Enchiladas are my absolute favorite! Stuffed full of lobster and the sauce is so creamy!
ENCHILADAS MEXICO CITY
Great chicken enchilada on the regular menu the Best Mole sauce is here!
TACOS ASADA
These tacos top Puesto, Javier's and any other Irvine Mexican restaurant. They taste just like in DF. Hands down my go-to.
SHRIMP TAMPIQUEÑOS
This is the best. The shrimp are cooked perfect. The garlic butter and white rice mixed together is scrumptious.
BLACKENED TACOS
We love the blackened chicken! Burritos, tacos or salad...its all delicious!
CARNITAS
Perfect carnitas and the presentation is wonderful!
FLAN AL HORNO
Absolutely delicious! Some of the best flan I've ever had in my life. Creamy, smooth, sweet, and rich — this flan was everything! I would eat it every day! 110% recommend it!
BLACKENED TACOS
I've been going to Taco Mesa/Rosa for almost ten years. Since high school I've been going to either location and have ordered the same thing every single time. I always get (2) blackened chicken tacos, (1) blackened fish taco, a large Horchata, chips and guacamole. I'm a creature of habit, but more importantly the food has always remained consistent and fantastic. Taco Measa/Rosa has always been the perfect blend of tradition and culinary creativity. The items are always homemade with the best ingredients. I have and always will be an ardent advocate that Taco Mesa/Rosa are the best Mexican restaurants around. I've tried tons of other restaurants including: Javier's, Taco Bravo, mom and pop's, and even taco carts in Rosarita & Ensanada, but none of them compare. If I die tomorrow, I'll die knowing I've found the best Mexican restaurant in existence.
Hot Entrees
Food, was exceptional!!! Great quality, Great selection, and service was OUTSTANDING!!! First time dining, and will definitely be a regular customer from here on! Ruben the General manager was AMAZING. They couldn't have a better staff there! I would highly recommend this place to everyone. Thank you for being one of the few restaurants that still has impeccable service and food that is just as enjoyable.
Omelete & Carving Station
This is my favorite Sunday Brunch place in Orange County. They have a large selection of foods to try - my favorites are the Omelet Station (I usually get a build to order chorizo omelet.) and the Grill out on the patio that does fresh quesadillas and sopes. There selection of desserts is also really good with flans, churros, and a chocolate fountain. The waiters are always friendly and they have live music. The band will even take requests and play songs for people celebrating special events.
MEXICO CITY NACHOS
I grew up on Mexican food and love little carnicerias around OC and go out of my way find good Mexican. But, these are my favorite nachos of all time. I crave the first bite- we get them with chicken, but the steak is also excellent. I could also say that about the Mexico City Enchiladas, tacos de filete or our real favorite, the Burrito Arizona. Love the service, the food and the little pre-meal appetizer they bring you. So good!
CARNITAS PIBIL TACO
I ordered up an assortment of taco's on Taco Tuesday and to review Carnitas Pibil is like picking out your favorite child, yes, it's difficult but if you actually had to choose, come on, you know you could! Carnitas Pibil was my favorite of the favorites.
ENCHILADAS MEXICO CITY
I absolutely love ordering the Enchiladas Mexico City dish! It has the best enchilada sauce, the beans are full of flavor, and the rice is perfectly seasoned! Love it!
NOIR FRIDA CADILLAC
Absolutely the best Cadillac Margarita on earth. Believe me when I say this. I'm 70 years old. I have been drinking margaritas for almost 50 years
FAJITAS
Taco Rosa is one of our go-to restaurants. With 2 daughters, one vegan & one with food allergies, it's not always easy to agree on a place to eat. Taco Rosa is one of our favorites! They're always so friendly & accommodating. And the food & margaritas are always delicious! If you haven't tried them, put them on your short list!
TACOS DE FILETE
Delicious tacos! Loved the black beans with entree and the added complimentary dish before entree was a nice added touch! Chips and salsa tastey! Victor was such a great server! Very attentive and fun! He was the best and because of him and great food we shall be back! Thanks! Linda (USC fan)

10/4/20 - NATIONAL TACO DAY!
What a wonderful discovery when I was looking for a quick lunch last Saturday and came upon Taco Rosa. Was not a quick lunch but a culinary delight! Looking forward to my next visit with my family.
Omelete & Carving Station
The omelettes are always delicious and made to order! The chorizo is spicy and the options for the omelette are all fresh. Whether you opt to go for a build your own omelette or some huevos rancheros, taco rosa is the place to satisfy your craving. With a welcoming staff and a large variety of stations from omelette, carving station, seafood, salad, soup, tacos, enchiladas, sopes, salmon, and a dessert bar just to name a few. Bottomless champagne and a roaming mariachi! Best way to start a Sunday! Love this place!!
FLAN AL HORNO
This is the BEST FLAN IN THE WORLD! It is absolutely my favorite dessert. The food and service at Taco Rosa is top drawer.
BLACKENED TACOS
Every taco that I have tried is delicious . Excellent tortillas and a big portion of meat and fillings in each taco . Being my favorites the blackened chicken taco and wild shrimp .
CHILAQUILES
Excellent eating experience , from walking in the door and being greeted by employee ! Best place to celebrate my birthday
PORTOBELLO & SHITAKE MUSHROOMS
I am vegan, so the mushroom, refried rice and beans was the excellent choice! Taco Rosa is authentic and so delicious! Finally I've found a really good Mexican restaurant in the area! Great customer service to! I highly recommend this restaurant!
Menu Items
First time at Taco Rosa and it was absolutely amazing ! I am from Northern California and there's nothing like this over there. They have a variety of food to choose from whether you want some warm flavory menudo for the hangover or fresh seafood choices or tasty chilaquiles like they came straight from grandma's kitchen or a stuffed omelet with pancakes, this is the place to be for Sunday's brunch! With their all you can eat, you'll definitely won't be leaving with an empty stomach ! And to makes this even better they have mariachi going around playing for every table. It doesn't get any better than that ! Definitely will be making for trips too come here more often !
CARNITAS
Carnitas have been one of my favorite fishes for the past 6 years here. They are cooked just right avoiding a mouthful of salt. Huge win in my books. Cooked just right not drying out .
Street Tacos, Quesadillas, Salsas
It was delicious! Everyone there is so nice and so helpful! Definitely recommend this place!!
Street Tacos, Quesadillas, Salsas
The food was delicious and freshly made. The mariachi is very lively as well. We always come back for the Sunday brunch.
ROSA COMBO
The very BEST margaritas, service & food all in this cute outdoor patio location!
WILD SHRIMP ENCHILADAS
As a Yelp Elite member I came here with Friends for a Networking Lunch during the Week. We decided to eat outside on the patio since it was a beautiful day. The Server was very warm and friendly and he took our order promptly. I ordered the Wild Shrimp Enchiladas since I wanted to try something different. The food was seasoned nicely and I really enjoyed the Shrimp inside along with the sauce and cheese. The plate also came with rice and beans and a sweet Corn Tamalito which were also amazing! I Work nearby in Tustin so I will definitely be coming back time and time again. Looking forward to coming during Happy Hour so I can try some of their Margaritas!
SHRIMP TAMPIQUEÑOS
I've been coming to Taco Rosa for the past 4 years and tried several of dishes including their mole, taquitos dorados, Pa ella but I must admit my all time favorite is the Camarones Tampiquenos. The sauce is so tasty and satisfying. It has the right spice that gives the best taste to the shrimp. I've come to Taco Rosa for my past two anniversaries with my husband and we love the food, waiters and environment. I'm excited and looking forward to come this year and enjoy there delicious CAMARONES TAMPIQUENOS!!! Thank you Taco Rosa for providing excellent service.
