    Needed a meet-up spot for a dinner and we all wanted Mexican. Picked this spot due to convenience and reviews. The good: easy access spot that's not too far from 400, great margaritas, decent atmosphere inside The bad: no outdoor seating and slow service with our drink order I did the tacos gringos with chicken, and they were wonderful! Big, tasty and enough for one person. Loved the poblano coleslaw as well! The house margarita pitcher was an exceptional. It packed a punch and the mix was perfect! Overall, great spot for drinks and Mexican! Hopefully faster service on pitcher next time (bumped a star down bc the table behind us got their pitcher 10 minutes before us and we had ordered the pitcher before they even came in the door). Staff was not pushy when we were still there close to closing time, though!

    Avocado Rolls

    Outside of Fresco Cantina is super cute. I enjoyed the avocado rolls. Ambience was nice, service was quick.

    We had dinner here last week, and we absolutely loved it. The nicest staff and very delicious food. Casual atmosphere, wonderful chips + salsa. We had the fajita bowl and the carnitas fajitas - so fresh and so good!

    Vallarta bowl with chicken, no cheese
    Kristy B.

    I remember having gone to Fresco Cantina Grille some time ago before I moved to the area but that first impression was not a good one because I had not wanted to revisit after moving, though I could not recall exactly why. After living in the area for several months now, I happened to be nearby last night and was looking to grab a quick bite with hubby after an eye doctor appointment. We saw Fresco Cantina Grille and decided to give it another go. Upon reviewing the menu once inside, I remembered what had turned me off so much during that first visit. It was their avocado rolls. I remember being happily surprised to see avocado rolls on the menu and ordering them without reading the description because I just assumed they were normal avocado rolls and then being highly disappointed when we received them and realized that they had added shrimp. I had never heard of shrimp or any kind of seafood in avocado rolls and since neither of us like seafood, that turned my happy surprise into a not-so-happy one. But now armed with this memory, I knew better than to order the avocado rolls again and to check the menu descriptions carefully. This time, we ordered the appetizer trio, which included guacamole, cheese dip (we opted for with jalapeno), and pico de gallo. This dish looks very pretty and the cheese dip was delicious, which even my cheese-hating husband agreed with, but I probably wouldn't order it again because the cheese was the only good thing there. Next time, I will get the cheese dip on its own. The pico de gallo and guacamole were okay but more bland than anything else. The guacamole was too smooth for our liking and tasted almost exactly like the store-bought Holy Mole Guacamole brand, which doesn't taste bad but I would have much preferred that it tasted homemade instead and preferably with more chunks. For my main, I ordered two tacos, which come with two sides. I ordered the buffalo chicken taco and the gringo ground beef taco on flour tortillas with a side of jalapeno mac and a side of fries. The buffalo chicken taco was spicy and delicious. I really liked it and regretted not having gotten two of the same. I did not like the other taco primarily because I did not like the flavor of the ground beef. Whatever seasoning they used on it, I was not a fan at all and would not get anything with their ground beef in it again. My jalapeno mac was made with the same spicy cheese as in the dip, which was very tasty, and the fries were crinkly and decent enough. Hubby ordered the Vallarta bowl with chicken but no cheese because he is a weirdo. It came in a big tortilla bowl, which he was not a fan of because he said he had to be careful not to break it and did not want to eat it. He did seem to enjoy the contents of the bowl, though, especially since he asked for black beans, which are his favorite. Service was pretty good so no complaints on that end. Overall, there were some things I liked and would go back for like the cheese dip, the jalapeno mac, and the buffalo chicken taco. I don't think it competes well enough with my favorite Mexican go-to in the area (Rojos), but it is enough of a contender to repeat once in a while when I need a break from Rojos but am still craving Mexican.

    Seafood Enchiladas with Grilled Veggies
    Bradley S.

    Met my wife for dinner here after I ran an errand with our daughter. The seafood enchiladas had good flavor and tasted fresh along with the grilled vegetables. It definitely hit the spot of what I was craving at the time. I really appreciated our waiter being attentive to my pregnant wife as she ate while waiting for me to arrive. Would definitely go back.

    This is one of the harder reviews I have had to write because it seems to be a good place with good and fresh food. I however just did not love it. I have to say first of all, I did not like that they did not offer a lunch menu. I am not sure I know of another Mexican restaurant that does not offer lunch specials. So for no real main dish on the menu at less than $10, it's going to be more expensive that what most people think. I got a bowl which was served in a taco shell bowl which was nice. There were two things I did not like about it. One was the texture. Everything in there was very fine diced including the chicken. So it was a very smooth bowl of food without much texture at all. Even the guacamole was completely smooth with no chunks of avocado. Also there was a slight flavor to the chicken that was not what I had expected. It was slightly bitter and acidic. I am not sure what that was and whether they might marinate the chicken in something, but it was not cohesive to the rest of the bowl. The ingredients seemed to be good quality so maybe perhaps it was just this one dish. Also, a little odd but I never saw the same server twice. Five different people came by my table and one of them was part of the kitchen staff because they had on an apron and gloves. It was not bad service by any means, it was just odd. Overall, I don't have really any bad things to say about this place. It was just that several small or odd things added up to me not enjoying it as much.

    House margarita!  For the win

From the moment we walked in, the experience was incredible. The atmosphere and décor immediately stand out the entire place is filled with guitars and music memorabilia that reflect the owner's personal love for music. It gives the restaurant a really unique and authentic vibe that you don't see everywhere. What made it even more special was hearing the story behind the location. We had the pleasure of meeting April, who shared the history of Rock N Taco with us. She explained how the owner used to bike through that part of town as a kid, and when the space later became available, he chose it for the second location. Knowing that story makes the place feel even more meaningful you can tell it was built with heart and passion. The service was exceptional. Our server, Savanna, was wonderful friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. In fact, every staff member we encountered made us feel invited and appreciated the moment we stepped inside. The food absolutely delivered as well. I ordered the taco salad and my husband ordered tacos, and we both loved our meals. Everything was fresh, full of flavor, and perfectly prepared. What stood out most, though, was how kind and accommodating the staff were to our family. We were traveling with both an infant and a toddler, and they made sure we were comfortable and taken care of the entire time. They even surprised us with a special treat on the house before we left, which was such a thoughtful touch. It's easy to see that while the food is fantastic, Rock N Taco understands that people go out for the full experience atmosphere, hospitality, and feeling welcomed and they absolutely nailed it. If you're in Roswell, do not skip Rock N Taco. It's not just a late-night spot; it's also the perfect place to stop during the day for a great meal or while passing through on a road trip. We'll definitely be stopping again the next time we're in town. Thank you - Tom, Alysia and family.
