Way over-priced, especially for the quality and location. Every other similar restaurant in town is much better quality and much better price. read more

Food was good but it was very commercialized and expensive. As soon as you cross the border, the locals all tell you to go to La Roca. I think they must give them all free margs or something. It was fine but I would not cross the border again just to eat there. read more

As a Soldier stationed at Fort Huachuca in 2008 I ventured down to Nogales and crossed the border in search of some delicious Sonoran cuisine. What I found was excellent service, fresh and authentic cuisine topped off with great ambience and service. Although there are some legitimate concerns for an American in Nogales, Mexico I would still recommend a visit as long as you travel in a group, let friends and family know of your travel plans and stay out of any area or situation that doesn't pass the smell test so to speak. Order the ceviche and wash it down with some 100% agave tequila and enjoy yourself! read more

Decent but a little pricy. Nice building and courtyard but in a not so nice area of nogales

We came here to celebrate my moms 60th birthday on a Saturday night. The restaurant was dead (which now I know why). They had an awesome Trio that played all night (the only positive from the night). First, we asked for a drink menu and the server was hesitant (? Not sure why). Then, the food and margaritas were mediocre--there's more authentic and CHEAPER options in town. Finally, I take full responsibility for not asking for separate checks at the very beginning but this doesn't give the servers a right to get pissy with me or give me attitude. I will never come back to this place! read more

unique/authentic interior, clean, safe, great food, good service, will definitely return!

Been awhile now since I was delighted by a truly fine restaurant like La Roca. Memories linger on, and I have to say this is one of my favorites. Go, eat, enjoy, and the prices are very good. The service is out of bounds good. The authentic Mexican food was carefully prepared and delicious. read more

My husband and I ventured onto Nogales and was told to visit this location. It was recommended by a local. And, if I've learned anything from traveling, go where the locals eat and suggest. With that said, it was probably one of the best tacos, food both my husband and I had. Margaritas were darn good too! Area was a bit sketchy but all was good. So, if in Nogales. GO HERE!!!! read more

A must for their Sunday Brunch and an incredible place to see it has the old Hacienda charm and the food it is one of the best places to eat in this whole area if you try it you will keep coming back and the staff is the best!! read more

This is my favorite restaurant in Nogales, I have been there to celebrate birthdays and also for business. Great atmosphere, excellent service, very good food and live music, this makes you enjoy your time there and want to be back again. I have one anecdote about the last time my husband and I went to celebrate our wedding anniversary, I asked to play a beautiful song "as the first day". It's a very old song so the musicians did not know it. However they went somewhere and get a singer who sing the song for us. I was delighted and moved. This was very especial gesture just for us. I "ll never forget it. Thank you. read more

Maybe my favorite place to eat in Mexico, and definitely my favorite in Sonora. After crossing the border and winding down a few small streets, all the while insisting you are not interested in a lap dance at one of the many strip clubs(or maybe you are), you'll climb a few sets of stairs and into the courtyard. Here, the fountain and big wooden doors will let you know you've found the right place. Amazing food, great traditional music played live, and fairly reasonable prices on Pacifico and Margaritas. The entire restaurant feels like a very-well decorated cave, with beautiful veranda windows opening up into the hills of Northern Mexico. If you're in Nogales, don't miss out on this gem. Then, if you've got some wind left in your sails, head on down to the Hotel Regis for cheap drinks and even cheaper drugs. read more

FABULOUS! The waiters are attentive; the food is an epicurean delight; the atmosphere is comforting. No one pushes you or hurries you. You can relax and enjoy your meal, conversation and atmosphere without being pressed for timel. Love the Sea Bass and the variety of tacos. The chips an pico de gallo are freshly made and the Guacamole and La Roca Cheese are a superb beginning. The breakfast buffet has a wide range of wonderful choices and very reasonable. Love to bring my guests here. read more

Mark the RVr here. Saw all of the good reviews and decided to try this restuarant for lunch. Linen table cloths. Wait staff dressed in white coats & bow ties. Good portion of pico de gallo without asking. There was a solo guitarist with a great melodic voice. As described they bring the menu on a large board rather than individual menus. (Much cleaner that way). I had the fish tacos that many had reccomended. They were good but not great as they had cooled somewhat before they were brought to me. The chili rellenos were very good according to my wife. About $35 USD for lunch with tip. (No drinks) but we did have bottled water. Would come again and try something different. read more

Best Mexican restaurant I've ever been to. The attention to detail is what sets them apart from the rest. Everything from the fine suits on the waiters, to the subtle spices in the guacamole. I hope to come back here again, truly excellent -- gracias La Roca! read more

Best restaurant in Nogales... amazing atmosphere... Actually love the place so much I had my wedding reception here. It is a very easy walk across the border and well worth it if you want some authentic Mexican food. All their steaks are excellent, so is the seafood (try the garlic shimp). For a appetizer I recommend the mochomos (fried beef). For a drink, get their tamarindo margarita. Sunday mornings they have brunch buffet and Sunday nights they have live dinner music read more

Garlic shrimp is yummy. Service was very good. Atmosphere was perfect. Margaritas strong. All in all a delightful lunch at La Roca once again. read more

If you want to pay high prices for lousy food go to LA Roca. We went there for dinner and drinks because I had a dental appointment in Nogales. We were seated promptly because the place was empty and a menu board was placed in front of our table. The waiter told us to order quickly because the kitchen was closing in 30 minutes, it was only 4:30. I ordered a margarita and it came in a small glass full of ice and was bitter, lousy, and lacked tequila. It cost $ 5.50 They figure you're going to drink several to feel good so they screw you. My $ 21.00 shrimp dish consisted of 6 tasteless butterfly shrimp, a serving of rice and a few pieces of squash. They seen me coming , and yes I did from across the border. My dining partner had a piece of seabass and the same rice and squash. It was lousy too. Was it really seabass? We also had chips and salsa and shrimp appetizer along with 2 beers. When I received the bill I noticed that every menu item we ordered was 3 to 4 dollars more then listed on the menu, I got some bullshit story that the increase in prices were taxes per item. That totaled another 15 bucks. The town of Nogales use to be full of American tourist but is now void and the town is dead. It's not the economy but the Americans are tired of getting screwed by all merchants and LA Roca falls in the same category. If you want good Mexican food and pay a reasonable price and not get ripped off wait until you cross the border back in the USA. read more

Good place for tourists and a good restaurant to boot. Prices are reasonable and the best part is the beautiful decor. It is built into the rocky hillside where the 19th century jail used to be and after which it was part of a hotel. Great appetizers, great service, great steak. This is THE place to entertain a large group. The only minus is the live music - way too, too loud. They should save the additional cost of the band, as I've never known anyone to come here for the music, the volume of which makes it too loud to enjoy conversation. read more

Excellent ambiance. Super romantic, or if you just want to get away from everything in the shopping district, it's like being transported into a completely different world. The quality of the food is really, really good, and reasonably priced. read more

This is a great hidden gem. I'm American staying on the US side and crossed just to try this joint out and I was extremely impressed. The staff made me feel like I was part of their family. 4 adults entrees, 2 appetizers, 8 cokes bill was $140. Not bad. read more

very nice and unique place recomendable if you are looking for a nice mexican food or have a drink when visiting nogales Mexico

I think I have La Roca figured out. Go at off peak hours and get a much better experience. Two weeks ago we went at 2pm on a Saturday. The gringo lunch crowd had died down. Service was good and food was carefully prepared and excellent. Went today on a Friday at lunch peak. Service was poor - wait staff zipping around, grabbing plates and bottles, no attempt to be helpful. We ordered a guacamole app and food arrived first. When we asked about app, server removed plates and brought guacamole. Realizing we'd be served the same plates later we asked for them back. Glad we did as we needed the guacamole to provide flavor to the burrito del carne and burrito del frijiol (not pollo we ordered). It was clear they prepare dishes like this in advance to handle rush periods and keep under warmers as both were dry as Sonoran dust and flavorless. The saving grace is the charm of the venue and the roaming guitarists/vocalists are excellent. We returned to Tucson still craving Mexican and had two great asada burritos from Paco's for $10. La Roca got a 2 today, but extra star was for previous experience. read more
