Rosa Linda Mexican Cafe
Worst Service and Quality. Every time I'm there (and I don't know why I keep going back) I have bland food, poor service, and expensive tabs for very little to eat. I am finally putting my foot down and never going back. I just don't understand why it touts so many accolades on the front of their menu, then delivers so poorly. Am I missing something?…
WORST Mexican Food in Denver. We went to this highly acclaimed restaurant anticipating a great dining experience based on reviews. When we arrived there were not too many customers, yet they only had a few tables available because they couldn't be bothered to clean the dirty tables. Once seated, it took a long time to get our chips and salsa. We were disappointed that the chips were bland and the salsa was watery and without flavor. The pico de gallo had definitely been sitting out a long time, and tasted stale. This did not bode well for the rest of our meal. Our food arrived and was one of the worst meals I have ever had. Not sure I can even call it a meal since I only ate a few bites. I had the flautas, which were tough and flavorless, with watery green chile and what looked like Velveeta semi melted over the top. The rice was stale and I couldn't even bring myself to try the refried beans. My companion had the Best of Denver plate, and it was equally bad if not worse. Needless to say, we couldn't get out of there fast enough.…
Best in Denver!.
Moving from Phoenix I thought I would have trouble finding good Mexican food in Denver that could compare to the cuisine down there - No such problem! Rosa Linda's came highly reccomended from a
former resident of Denver and once I tried it I was hooked! The food is simply amazing! And the people are so friendly and personable. They remember their regulars and are so accomodating! I have shown up at 8:50 before (when they were to close at 9) and they told me to come on in! They still treated me with the same friendly service even as they were to be closing.
I could not be happier with this find. The food is fresh, authentic, and wonderful. The best "authentic" Mexican food I have tried since I moved here (and that has been a lot!) The menu is quite extensive with some very familiar items, to some specialties. The prices are also extremely reasonable. Finding Rosa Linda's has definitely satisfied my Mexican food cravings!…
poor service. just went in for lunch and as a repeat customer for this establishment, I was not impressed. Service was very poor and the food was not up to snuff. While normally a delicious eatery, they seem to struggle with consistency. They were out of several items and overall very disappointing trip to Rosa's. Not sure I will go back.…
Authentic Experience. My husband and I are from a border town in Arizona and travel to mexico frequently. Rosa Linda Mexican Cafe has the most authentic Mexican food we have eaten since moving to Denver three years ago. We were told about this gem by friends and have been back several times in the past few weeks. Each time we were greeted with a smile and served warm tortilla chips with a fresh, piquant salsa. We ordered the guacamole and were impressed with its homemade consistency and taste. We tried the queso fundido with chorizo (which is made in-house) accompanied by warm tortillas. Delicious! My husband has had the Best of Denver plate every time ...he can't get enough of the chile rellenos! I have sampled the cheese enchiladas, the shredded beef enchiladas and the tacos al carbon. I would recommend all three dishes...they were perfectly prepared. After drinking a couple of their excellent top shelf margaritas, we WERE in Mexico! Highly recommend this restaurant if you like genuine Mexican food in a great setting.…
