7/10 Absolutely loved the atmosphere, service was QUICK-- the music was great, and overall it had a really nice vibe. They have a great Taco Tuesday deal with $1 tacos, offering carnitas and chicken tacos as part of the special. The carnitas tacos were seasoned perfectly -- 8/10. The only thing that would elevate them even more would be adding pico. The chicken tacos were a 4/10 unfortunately. They lacked flavor and tasted like plain boiled chicken placed on a tortilla, which was disappointing. We also ordered the Tres Salsa and chips. Out of the three salsas, the green and red were the standouts and packed the most flavor. For drinks, we ordered margaritas on the rocks ($5, plus $2 additional for flavor). I tried mango and passion fruit -- the mango tasted more like orange juice, while the passion fruit maintained its flavor much better. If you're looking for a family-friendly indoor/outdoor spot, this is a great option. I noticed a good mix of couples and singles, which made for a nice atmosphere. Bar seating is limited at night, and outdoor seating closes around 7:00 PM. Overall, for Taco Tuesday, I'd give it a 7/10 -- great atmosphere and deals, but food consistency could use some work. read more

3 tacos per order. Kinda bar-ish vibes and loud Some of the tacos were too salty, while others lacked salt. I remember the mushroom taco being very mushy. The hot sauces carried the dishes Maybe it would be worth it during happy hour but I left disappointed with the food. read more

Went again and had a good time and good food! Love Tuesday for their deals! Worth it fr the happy hour price. It can get loud and note that the tacos are small. It can get busy and sometimes you could feel rushed. read more

This is a cozy restaurant that serves some delicious Mexican food! I've been here a couple of times and I usually get the Esquites, Nachos, and Churros for dessert. The food slaps every single time! I have also tried the Taco el Pastor and that was really good! The only issue this time was the churros- it was dry in the middle and the dulce de leche sauce was watery. This is my go to dessert here and both the chocolate and dulce de leche sauces are normally pretty thick and creamy. Besides that everything was amazing! For drinks we got the House Margarita and Virgin Mango Margarita. The service is always good here! read more

Rosy's Taco Bar has a great Taco Tuesday deal- $1.33/taco! I'd highly recommend combining the Taco Tuesday deal with their Happy Hour deals for a filling and relatively cheap meal! --- My party of 4 made a reservation for Rosy's Taco Bar and were seated ASAP at a table in the back. The service was fast to get us seated, take our order, and bring our food. The interior exudes taco bar vibes, decorated with Christmas lights, and is bigger than it appears from the outside. The metal chairs are a bit light, so just be careful getting up. It wasn't too loud considering the amount of people inside, and we even saw a good number of families. There is a hot sauce bar, which isn't really advertised, but you can take a bottle back to your table for seasoning. We ordered the (1) pollo (chicken) tinga, (2) carnitas, and (3) vegetarian (mushroom) tacos for the $1.33/taco Taco Tuesday deal (minimum of 3 tacos per type required). From the Happy Hour $5 menu, we ordered the (1) chorizo quesadilla, (2) classic house margaritas, and (3) churros. Overall: -The pollo tinga tacos were a bit dry, even though there was crema, and we felt there was more lettuce than other filling. When we added a hot sauce from the sauce bar to these, we enjoyed them more. Otherwise, we'd pass. -The carnitas tacos were delicious! Full of filling and juicy, we would reorder these for sure again. -The vegetarian mushroom tacos were good, juicy and flavorful. However, we preferred the carnitas tacos. Probably pass next time. -The chorizo quesadilla was awesome. Super flavorful, great cheese ratio, and not too greasy. It was more toasted instead of crispy, which I prefer. We'd definitely reorder these too. -The house margaritas come with either tajin, sugar, or salt on their rims. Great drink at a great price. -Lastly, the churros were pretty average, but really hit the spot! Rosy's Taco Bar promises cheap tacos and drinks for Taco Tuesday, and I'd say it certainly delivers. We had a great time, and I'd recommend anyone craving cheap tacos to stop by on Tuesday! read more

I've been loving this bar. The first time I came here was on a Cinco de Mayo and that my friend was a huge mistake. Even if I had had a reservation which we did not it was way too crowded and noisy. Circling back some months later I arrived again, no reservation required and was seated immediately to wait for my guest. The vibe is chill, definitely giving friendly neighborhood meet up spot and that's what I've been doing ever since. You can sit at one of two bars, perch at a tiny high top, lounge at a long communal table or hang outside. Rosy's has you covered. As for the food, great!!! You know I love a good Al Pastor Taco dammit. The Valentina Wings are also a favorite and love that they have a hot sauce bar. Margaritas are on point as well. Fun fact, Rosy wasn't a lady but former President Franklin Delano Roosevelt's older brother. read more

I heard lots of great things about this place but the food fell so short. They have a decent amount of vegetarian options. We got the nachos and I got the enchiladas with cheese. So bland. Everything was so bland. I even got the divorciado sauce, so bland. Nothing had any remote flavor to begin with. There's better options in the city. Maybe this place has better drinks or something because I do not get the hype. read more

Rosy's Taco Bar - chicken tinga and carnitas - Tacos Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

As someone who just moved up from Florida (and originally from Texas), I'll admit I'm a bit spoiled when it comes to Mexican food -- so Rosy's isn't exactly authentic, but it has its own charm. It's a trendy taco spot with a full bar, plenty of menu options, and a great location right in Rittenhouse. I ordered the bistec tacos -- the meat was tender and cooked well, but lacked the seasoning I'm used to. Definitely felt more "white-washed" than traditional. My partner got the shrimp enchiladas, and they were also missing the bold flavors and spice you'd normally expect. Nothing was bad, just a little watered down across the board. We also got the chips with salsa and guac for $15 -- steep compared to what you'd get for free back home, but to their credit, the guac was super fresh and they gave us a generous portion. The salsa was clearly homemade and fresh too, just milder and thinner than I prefer. Service was great -- our server was attentive, kept the water refilled, and the food came out fast. There's indoor and outdoor seating; inside is lively and festive, while outside is a bit quieter (but still by the road). They even pump music outside, which helps with the vibe. Overall, it's not authentic Mexican, but it's still a nice spot with fresh ingredients, good energy, and solid service. read more

My friend threw a private party here - a galentines party and we had a blast! We had our own private area which was nice but there wasn't any table seating so you had to use the ledge to put your plate down and had to stand to eat. The food portions were great and everything was self serve. We were able to get 2 drinks - wine, margarita, seltzer, etc. read more

I got home from running errands around 11 o'clock at night and I hadn't eaten anything. Five minutes of wondering what to eat and I remembered Rosy's Taco Bar nearby on Walnut. I jumped onto Yelp and placed an order, then took a short walk there from my house in the Rittenhouse area. I was greeted by very pleasant people, my wait was short, and my burrito was absolutely delicious! Great late-night go-to! read more

I'm going to be a dissenter here -- the place is 99% vibes, which are great. But the food itself is just okay. Not even good okay, just okay okay. So if you're looking for a place that's fun to dine in, I'd recommend it. But if you're just looking for great food (for instance, for takeout), I'd look somewhere else. read more

Fast service, great atmosphere, delicious food. Ordered the korean tacos without the sauce and they were PERFECT. The kimchi added an extra zest to the taco. I'd definitely recommend! read more

Brought a friend visiting Philly here for lunch and she's already planning her next visit to come back because of this place! We shared the esquites which were phenomenal! The two of us often order that when its on the menu, and Rosy's is the best by far. She ordered tacos and I got the queso enchiladas, we CLEANED our plates! Our sever was super friendly, the vibes were relaxed and welcoming. It's a bit pricy for what most Mexican food goes for in the city, but in my opinion it is well worth it. They even have a hot sauce bar where you can try out a dozen or so hot sauces with your meal! read more

I had walked past Rosy's dozens of times, but never had stopped in, until last night. We ordered 3 taco dishes - shrimp, chicken and steak. Let's start with the steak tacos. The steak was so well done, we chewed, and chewed, and chewed. I really can't remember having to chew meat for that long. Suffice to say, I didn't finish the taco, neither did my friend. Next, the shrimp tacos. They were fine - little marinated, grilled shrimps with an avocado salsa. I would have preferred larger shrimps, but for the price, (they probably were frozen) the tacos were good. Last, but definitely not least, the chicken tacos were actually very good; with shaved radish, and a delicious crema, the pulled chicken was flavorful and tender. Will I be returning to Rosy's? I don't think so. read more

Happy hour and taco Tuesday specials! Who could ask for more! I enjoyed my time at Rosy's Taco Bar! 2 mango margaritas (10/10), chicken tinga tacos (9/10), carnita tacos ( 8/10), wings ( 8/10), and nachos (8/10). The environment is laid back with music playing ( not too loud). I will visit again with friends. read more

Came here for late dinner (930) because it is one of the only restaurants open til 12- we were starving and thirsty- we were seated at the bar as the dining section was closed- the bartender was friendly at first and we got water right away- but it took forever to get refills and to take our order (they were cleaning other tables and the bar and the dishes before getting to us) - the table was wobbly and this is no one's fault - but on a high top- is not very secure when you have drinks sloshing about. I would have been chill about the server keeping us waiting if we were not starving!! Anyway - got guac and chips for app which I thought was a nice size and good solid chunks - I thought was good but others thought it was bland - I got fish tacos which were delicious- the Al pastor tacos had no flavor and the carnitas was also a little under seasoned but had a nice char flavor- the torta was good but not great and the meat was cut small and was falling out of the bread- so it made for a less than great eating experience. The food was satisfying but did not blow me away and same with ambiance and service- read more

Love coming here with friends! The ambiance carries the experience here. The food and drinks are great as well. If you're coming for dinner and want something filling, the tacos are very light and you might want to order something else along with them. Great place for a girl's night. read more

P sure they're only running because of the hip decor and location. Otherwise? The food is super lackluster - their nachos were DOUSED in sourcream so you couldn't even taste the little flavor the chicken had. Did appreciate the cheese pull towards the beginning though. The esquites were p alright (but those shouldn't be hard to eff up) but the tacos left me wanting more (flavor wise... i was okay with only having those 3 rosy's tacos for the rest of my life) read more

So we ordered food on Uber eats and it was very fast being prepared and delivered! It was pretty tasty but nothing that really stood out to me. The tacos came with a yummy sauce to go on top and plenty of mushrooms. I also enjoyed the fresh avocado on top. There were many vegetarian options so that was a huge bonus for anyone who is vegetarian. I definitely got my money's worth from all the food. The Spanish rice and beans were good but nothing that really blew my mind. I'd eat here again for a quick meal, I might try something new next time! read more

Insanely amazing food. Always hot and fresh and really good prices, including a happy hour.

Came here with a friend for lunch. We ordered guacamole and chips to start. The tacos came out less than 5 minutes after we started our appetizer. My friend got the mushroom tacos. I tried one and really liked it. I ordered the chicken tacos and thought they were okay. The chicken lacked flavor. They were playing EDM dance music in the background and they turned it up not long after we sat down. I thought the music selection was weird for a Monday lunch. I felt like I was in a club. The restaurant was clean and I like the decor. I would definitely consider coming back, but would suggest they play different music based on their customer audience. You're getting people on their lunch break on a Monday, so just make it more appropriate. Also, improve on the flavoring of your chicken. It was bland. I also thought the employee benefit fee on the receipt was weird. I hope that means you're paying your waitresses/waiters fairly and not just giving them $2.15 an hour. read more

This place is amazing. They are open late and even have a spot if you just want to pick up tacos after a long day of whatever! The service was quick even though we went really late at night. The Al pastor was to die for. I really liked how it was marinaded and tasted very juicy. The tacos had a kick to it. I wasn't expecting how the quesadillas just looked like a big burrito. I am unsure if this is the traditional way of making quesadillas but I wasn't that impressed by them. read more

Loved Rosy's Taco Bar for my first visit! I've been recommended this bar before and I always hear the name and I was glad to finally try it and experience it for myself! To start, the ambiance overall is one to appreciate. I got to experience dining inside at the bar to start, the music/playlist was great, beautiful decor and a truly engaging and knowledgeable bartender! I had to take a meeting call outside and felt as though the patio was even remarkable! There are these wooden private seating areas that I believe are fitting to dine solo or with a group. The tacos (pictured) and the Smoke House Margarita (pictured) I chose were great! Really juicy tacos and an even better drink to top it off! My visit was early afternoon and it let into Happy Hour which wasn't bad! I recommend giving Rosy's a shot! Enjoy! Cheers! read more

This place is a must for happy hour. Their pollo tinga tacos are so good and the price of 3 tacos for $5 is unheard of nowadays. However, the happy hour margarita was kinda gross and this is coming from a person who loves margs. It was pure margarita mix and barely any alcohol. If they just took the time to make their margs instead of using premade mix this place would be a 5/5. I feel like a 3/5 is harsh but how can u not have a good marg at a taco bar!! I'll be coming back for those tacos for sure though. Some of the best i've had! read more

The food was meh. I've never eaten with a group where we didn't finish a serving of guacamole or, for that matter, the tortilla chips! Both needed seasoning. Ditto with the burrito bowl--the zestiest part was the hot sauce provided on the side (which did have a good amount of heat). Not a good sign when Chipotle is mentioned as a favorable comparison. That said, service was terrific and we appreciated being able to eat outside on a warm spring day. read more

Rosy's makes a good spicy margarita and really good shrimp tacos. The guac is inconsistent. The outside seating is a vibe! Very cute - aim to get a covered table if you can.

Cute little spot tucked into the neighborhood we're staying in. About a 10-15 minute walk from Rittenhouse Square. They've got a really cool vibe inside and our personal favorite was the hot sauce wall for you to choose from. Prices are reasonable and food was great. We got the guacamole and Valentina wings to start. We're picky about wings coming from Buffalo - these appeared to be baked not fried (no satisfying crunch) but being Valentina sauce, best for those who appreciate vinegar. Tacos were good to - husband got carnitas, I got pollo. They're street taco tortillas - which held up really nicely! But the meat could have used a little more seasoning for my preference. Over all a good time! read more

Stopped in on a rainy day for a quick bite and drink. The place had plenty of open seating and a large bar area. Good vibes from what I could see in the brief hour I was in. Service was good and food came quickly. I got tacos and an appetizer but the star of the show was the chips and guacamole!!!! They were delicious!! Chips are so obviously made in house and the guac was a heaping portion!!! Bathroom is in need of a revamp though... it doesn't fit the ambiance of the restaurant.
