Super chill and relaxed restaurant that serves Mexican comfort food at a fair price and offers big portions. Their menu is huge and the food comes out pretty quickly. The shrimp burrito was great, very big and filling with lots of flavor. The staff are nice, and there is plenty of indoor seating.

It was a pleasure to stop at Rosarito for takeout and be greeted with a warm hello. The owner/manager explained the menu to me, including the red and green sauces that are made fresh every day. I decided on a chicken quesadilla with everything and a wet pork burrito with both red and green sauces. I was happy that chips were included in the order. Food was excellent; the burrito was huge and delicious. Definitely a great value.
Since that visit I have enjoyed the menudo, enchiladas, nachos, and all these dishes have one thing in common: great flavor and cooked to perfection.

I look forward to Christmastime, when they put out the banner indicating tamales are available! It gives me something to look for as I walk or drive by during the holiday season.

It is so nice to deal with a dining establishment that treats the customer so well both on the phone and in person.

Plenty of parking nearby in both the lot and on the street. Limited seating inside and out.

Let’s talk about Menudo. According to the dictionary, Menudo means a soup made from beef tripe and chilis. But when I went to the Mexican grocery store, they labeled Beef Honeycomb Tripe as Menudo De Panalito, as well as Beef Book Tripe as Menudo De Librillo. Then why doesn’t Menudo mean beef tripe? ChatGPT tells me it is because that is the tripe cut used for Menudo. Then it raises another issue: are there no other dishes made from beef tripe?

I first encountered Menudo in 2016 at a restaurant in Azusa, CA called Taco King on Gladstone St. This restaurant was permanently closed, but it still has other branches open in that area. The original one was the first place I ever had Menudo, and I never found any better, even at their other branches.

I don’t have Menudo frequently. Firstly, I am not Latino. Secondly, not many Mexican restaurants sell Menudo every day. I was jogging around that area and passed by this Rosarito. I walked in and ordered Menudo. I carried the takeaway plastic bag and ran back home, struggling with the heavy package swinging around. Before I walked out the door, the chef told me they serve Menudo every day, unlike others that only serve it on weekends.

The Menudo takeaway included the Menudo soup, several flour tortillas, and torillas chips. All traditional, classic, but not special. The Menudo was small-cut, moderately seasoned, cooked, stewed. Nothing special but nothing bad. It’s plain—not in a bad or flavorless way, just average and normal. You wouldn’t call it bad tasting, nor a pleasant surprise.

Anyway, the people there were kind, the food tasted good, but without highlights. You can’t call it a bad restaurant—it was clean and neat, not very authentic, but not bad either. This made me confused about how to judge a restaurant. I normally give a fine dining restaurant 4 stars if the food is acceptable, but I tend to raise the bar for small restaurants. They don’t have fancy renovations, usually don’t have good tableside service, so the only factor left is the food. Then the only judgment is the food itself, which feels somewhat unfair.

Finally, I gave it four stars. It was good Menudo, no shining points, but good.

The food was great, service was friendly and quick, and the seating area was clean, and I would classify it as family friendly (our young kids didn’t feel out of place).

We ordered the huevos rancheros and birria, al pastor, and carne asada tacos, and they were all good….if I had to make a recommendation, it would be the asada. Our kids loved the fries too!

Thankful gave the money back after the takeout food TOSTADA I looked at halfway home was all drenched and wet. Plus had to check price as was overcharged and told cashier. Also thankful got refunded too with that! The meat in burrito was so chewy & had to spit out here & there..like gum but harder..was it even meat??!

Thanks so much!

I go to a restaurant for the food first. Here I tried their chicharon taco. What if to was some stew meat (not even chicharon at all) in a weak birria style broth. Uninspired, weakly flavored, and not even the right item. I gave it two stars because it wasn’t actively awful, but nothing can be said positively otherwise.

The hard shell taco is not fried. It’s like taco bell or del taco. It was disappointing. The meat was good. I had shredded beef.

Fries were cheap and you got a whole basket.

Got 2 tacos, fries and a drink for $12.98. great price

I love Mexican food. I love a spicy, flavorful hot sauce! Unfortunately, I can’t say I liked the food or hot sauce much. It’s a busy place, so people must like it. As for me, I didn’t.

I think this is why there are so many different Mexican restaurants.

I was nearby at Lee’s Hoagie House and decided to stop here also to try a burrito. I ordered the Combo burrito with chicken. This is a pretty good burrito and big enough to fill me up. Service was quick and painless. Good red salsa too. I will be back.
