Rojo’s Side Room can be rented for parties and other special events too!
Vibrant gathering place serving Latin & American dishes in a quirky, brick-walled space.

Sorry I’m not tipping for your $17 mid street tacos, go 5 mins down the street they the tacos $3 a piece at the taco truck, and I don’t get scripted fast casual service.
Whole place feels like a cash grab. The food is spectacularly mid. The service workers all seem stressed and like they don’t want to be there.
Keep increasing your prices, bleed em dry!

I was in town for a family event and my son recommended this spot for brunch. The brunch is something they only offer on the weekends, from what I was told.
We had a party of ten and sat outside on the patio. This is not an upscale or classy location that you’d expect in the gorgeous Birmingham area it’s located in. But I really loved the vibe! I can imagine what a cool spot it must be at night time with the spirits flowing and the atmosphere.
The brunch menu didn’t offer an awful lot of options but we all got something we really enjoyed. I had the brunch sandwich, which my son recommended. It has jalapeño bacon and avocado. Need I say more?! It was so yummy!
What I was impressed with was how incredibly fast our food arrived! We had no sooner ordered our food, paid for it, grabbed our drinks and sat down on the patio before the food arrived! All the servers were hardworking and pleasant.
I hope to come back to this location and try some more of their dishes!

Great burgers, nachos, and everything else I’ve tried since living above them this last year. Their staff is always attentive, punctual, and polite. Three things I love to see in a server considering I was one for so long. Keep up the good work!

It was an alright restaurant. We got the nachos with chicken, the Fuego burger, and the mushroom Swiss burger. The chicken on the nachos was dry and the taste was ok. We also got the strawberry mango margarita. It was very sweet. I would potentially recommend it but I just feel the food wasn’t great but alright.

We had our wedding rehearsal dinner at Rojo, and everything was fantastic! The reservation process with Belinda was seamless- she made our planning so easy. Chelsea made sure our whole party was well taken care of the night of the event. The buffet set up with tacos, rice, salsa and chips was delicious. The private party room was perfect, with its own sound system, bathroom and entrance. Highly recommend Rojo, awesome experience from start to finish!!!

I love coming here! Katie is an awesome bartender. Very good Latin and American food. The queso and Chips appetizer was “ok”. But….The fried fish tacos are awesome! The tinga nachos were good too! They also have a strawberry bsalmic margarita that I had to have three of! Cool laid back vibes and good food. Nice date spot on a Friday night.
Update: we’re back! Katie is awesome!!!! We sat at the bar again. Same order added tater tot Cho’s appetizer (very very good).

I’ve always enjoyed stopping by Rojo on my trips to Birmingham. A true neighborhood restaurant/bar embeded in a neighborhood that woukd be illegal in many zoned cities of USA . The Chipotle pork and mushroom burrito is a real pleasure.

We routinely order out from here and every now and then go sit and eat at Rojo and we love it every time!! The patio area is wonderful and the food is always tasty. We love grabbing a bite and eating it in highland park! Our go-to tends to be the taco wings, the tat-chos, and every now and then we will get a burger. The most recent time we ordered out through doordash, they did little drawings on our to-go boxes!! It’s the little things that fuel my dopamine rushes ❤️ love you too Rojo!
