    The environment, staff and food were all excellent at Rosa Cantina. I went during lunch on a…read moreMonday. If I had someone to be my designated driver I would have had the 2 for 1 margaritas which is a Monday special. The restaurant interior was bright and funky! There are tables and booths available. The bar area has an extensive selection of tequila. I've seen bottles that I've never seen before. Our server was so friendly and extremely attentive. Both our drinks and food were served in a timely manner. I ordered the Horchata and it was delicious! I ordered the chicken fajitas for lunch and the portion was huge! I was definitely able to take some home. The food tasted so fresh. In addition to the 2 for margaritas on Monday, I am so impressed by the number of daily specials this restaurant has. Other specials include $3 taco Tuesdays, 2 for 1 Mezcalitos on Wednesdays and 2 for 1 cocktails on Thursdays for the ladies. There is also a Happy Hour which includes discount margaritas and $3 tacos. There is plenty of free parking.

    I drive by this restaurant quite often and I noticed it is usually busy so I made a mental note to…read moregive it a try someday. I was in Longmont for the home and garden show and I was hungry so this was my opportunity to give Rosa's Cantina a try. They were very busy but I was greeted and seated promptly. The place is nice and they have a lot of seating and a patio but too cold that day for outdoor dining. I ordered the Burrito Tijuana which looked to be a good choice based on the menu description. The burrito was very good with a generous portion of steak. The chili smothering the buritto was flavorful but not very spicy. I wish they provided a little more pico salsa on the side, there was probably a teaspoon of pico. I enjoyed the buritto, it was sizeable, flavorful but not spicy enough for my taste buds. The server was good, she was attentive and pleasant. The place was clean, prices were reasonable, service was good as well as the food. Would I go back ? I might go back if the planets align but I wouldn't make a special trip. My only real letdowns were the shortage of pico and they don't offer free chips and salsa. I've come to expect and appreciate Mexican restaurants who still offer free chips and salsa.

    This was actually our favorite meal in Grand Lake!…read more The portions are HUGE and the flavors are so fresh. My husband and I shared a burrito along with a chicken quesadilla. Both were big and extremely filling. We took home leftovers. Get a side of chipotle ranch! I loved dipping the quesadilla in that. Our friend ordered the Not Cho nachos and said they set the standard for nachos moving forward. He absolutely loved them. I enjoyed the outdoor dining space a lot. The margaritas were fairly priced and looked delicious. I can't drink right now so it was a bummer I had to skip those. The food options in Grand Lake are pretty mid but this is a solid choice.

    Very bad experience. We were a group of 10+ people returning from the mountains--some of us weren't…read morefeeling well due to the altitude and were waiting in the car while we placed a food order for everyone. We forgot to ask for an ETA at the time of ordering, so we went back in to check. Out of nowhere, the server started yelling: "You just ordered food 5 seconds ago and now you need an ETA?" The entire restaurant went silent--everyone was stunned by the outburst. All we did was ask a basic question so we could plan accordingly and avoid waiting out in the heat (especially with some members not feeling well). They don't have any shaded seating outside either to wait there. We reported the behavior to the manager, who spoke with the staff member. But unbelievably, the same cook/server had another loud outburst right after--and that was the final straw. Everyone in restaurant left right after and we ended up going to another restaurant. No idea how this place is being run, but the service was aggressive and totally unacceptable. Ton of great restaurants around, so save yourself time and peace of mind.

    The only bad thing I can say about Mi Casa is that since we were staying in the same building, we…read morewere hit by a wall of incredible taco smells every time we walked outside. It makes you instantly hungry and has a way of making you forget about skiing or any other plans. I went with the two street tacos for $20. I chose the Elk and the Steak, opting for double black beans instead of rice to keep the diet right. Both were fantastic; the succulent steak provided a perfect balance to the leaner elk. I always judge a Mexican restaurant by its chips and salsa, and Mi Casa delivered a great trio: a fresh pico, a solid medium verde, and a "light you up" option for those who want the heat. The bar serves a solid Ranch Water with true Topo Chico instead of club soda from the gun, and my son gave the kids' quesadilla a strong report. The interior is well-executed--it transports you without feeling kitschy. The staff was attentive and friendly throughout. Overall, a reality-based "win" for a post-mountain meal.

    Disappointing customer service…read more I stopped by for lunch with my medically trained service dog. I was told dogs were not allowed. I clarified that my dog was a service dog and that I would sit outside. After I said that, I was met with what felt like a cold response and was simply told, "ok." After I sat outside, the same server approached and said, "We don't allow dogs on the patio either." For a second time, I explained that my dog was not a pet but a service dog. The server then responded with something along the lines of, "If it really is, that's ok." At that point, I decided not to eat at the restaurant. I mentioned that refusing service to someone because of a service dog is illegal. The server responded that he did not hear me say my dog was a service dog earlier, which was confusing because we had already gone back and forth about it. A man claiming to be the owner then came out and did not seem concerned about the situation or interested in addressing the issue, only concerned about the dog. He repeated that the server didn't hear me which I find extremely hard to believe due to the back-and-forth exchange and cold response initially when mentioning the dog is a service dog.

    This is a great find! The servings are huge and the service is top of the line. Plus the burrito…read morewas fantastic. We chose to share one(me and the better half), but it still filled me up. I also ordered the horchata which was one of the best I've had! Again, super big and shareable. Throw in some queso dip with the complimentary nachos and you will be set! Or just order the choices you prefer and I'm sure it will be good. The place had a calm and peaceful ambiance. Nothing too loud and we enjoyed good conversation over a meal.
