    Alambre poblano taco, fried avocado taco, rice & beans
    TP W.

    Delicious delicious delicious! After a full day of hiking this was AH-MAZING!! The special order chips and salsa came to the table before we even finished placing our order. We got to take a table in the back out of the way and loved being semi-to ourselves. Our tacos were some of the best we've ever had. (We both ordered the same thing.) Our server was extremely polite, welcoming and helpful with our orders. Awesome place! I would give it more stars if possible.

    Corn on the cob pieces, delish.

    Lyons, CO. I still come here often when I'm in town. The food is delicious and the portions are ample. This year one of their offerings is corn on the cob pieces that are roasted and rolled in cheese and spiced, loved this. I still have a problem with the tortillas. They fall apart after one bite, if you even get that far. Then the meal becomes fork driven. I like to actually pick up my tacos to eat them. With such a talented chef, can't this problem be solved? These tortillas are pretty much useless as they are.

    Roasted corn and avocado salad, with a delicious Paloma and margarita!

    If you're in the mood for some great Mexican food, this is the place!! Their food was delicious, the drinks were amazing, and the staff were terrific! (And they are dog-friendly!!! )

    My wife and I were staying just outside of Lyons while on vacation and stopped in here for a nice date night. The waitress, hostess, and everyone we interacted with were incredible and the food was phenomenal! The Mojo cocktails were a perfect compliment to the meal. Would highly recommend stopping by if you're visiting Estes or Rocky Mountain national park!

    3 Tacos with Rice and Beans. Short Ribs, Baja Fish and Gobernador Shrimp.

When the food arrived we were missing the consome for our birria tacos. we called the Restruant and tried contacting the driver, the Restruant was basically like oops you can come get it if you want. Since we didn't hear back from driver my husband went to pick it up which is about a 20 minute drive. He gets there and they hand him a tiny ass little plastic cup of the sauce and that's it. Honestly in this situation the least they could do is offer us a credit or something complimentary or something, not to mention make the drive worth it, the size of the consomé was not worth it, which we didn't know before deciding to pick it up, but seriously, it's called birria y consomé, the meal really loses something without it. Honestly for the price, portions and lack of customer service I would not waste my time or money here ever again. Really disappointed.

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 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.

Ours was about 45 minutes. They ended up seating us at a shared high-top table with another couple, which honestly wasn't a big deal. For appetizers, I ordered the shishito peppers with this orange marmalade-style dipping sauce, and WOW -- those were phenomenal. The peppers were fried perfectly with just the right crispiness and a little salt, and that sweet orange sauce paired with them so well. Definitely one of the best things we ordered. My friends also got queso, salsa, and ceviche. The ceviche was fresh and delicious, but the salsa was way too hot for me personally. I took one bite and couldn't handle another. For my entrée, I ordered the carne asada, and unfortunately it just was not what I expected. Instead of the thinner, flavorful steak I'm used to, it was a thick chunk of meat that was really chewy, fatty, and honestly lacked flavor. It just didn't work for me at all. The rice and beans were decent though, so no complaints there. The service was okay, but our server definitely seemed overwhelmed or maybe just uninterested. We often didn't see her for long stretches of time, so when she did come by, we had multiple things to ask for. It kind of felt like we were a burden anytime we needed something, which put a little damper on the experience. Overall, I'd probably give this place a 6/10. There were definitely some highlights, especially the appetizers and the atmosphere, and I'd still be willing to go back and try something different because I don't want one disappointing entrée to completely ruin the place for me.
