Rosa Mexicano Entrance

Located in the same spot that Manana's and Ristorante Meditorraneo used to occupy, the new Rosa Mexicano Restaurant has improved both the location, food and service. The new owners have stepped up the restaurant by adding many subtle, but impressive improvements.

Rosa Mexicano Overview

Looking back into the restaurant from the bar gives you an idea of the improvements. It offers a distinctive sophisticated feeling while still being in Mexico.

Rosa Mexicano Interior Dining

There are really two sections to the restaurant. As you enter the restaurant, there is a section with dining tables under a palapa, which would be an excellent choice if there were any chance of showers during your dining time.

Rosa Mexicano Kitchen and Oven

Adjacent to the palapa dining area is the kitchen complete with a brick oven for making Rosa's wonderful cuisine..

The Rosa Mexicano Bar

I particularly enjoy the bar at the Rosa Mexicano Restaurant. It enjoys a commanding view of the ocean, including the surf break right in front of the restaurant and is a great place for singles to dine without feeling awkward.

The View of the Main Break in El Anclote from Rosa Mexicano

The views of the surf spots in El Anclote are excellent from the restaurant and it is a great place to watch summer storms in the evening time too.

The owners of Rosa Mexicano are ex-Cafe des Artistes employees and the flavor, service and menu reflect that sort of quality. Authentic gourmet Mexican dishes are offered, as well as several seafood and steak entrees.

Tableside fresh guacamole

Once you have your beverage and have ordered your dinner, fresh guacamole is made to your taste right at your table. On all of the occasions that I have dined at Rosa's there was also a complimentary appetizer served that was absolutely delicious.

Rosa Mexicano Stuffed Shrimp

My favorite dish is the stuffed shrimp. It is simply to die for. It is large shrimp stuffed with a wonderful Mexican cheese and wrapped in bacon grilled to perfection. If you like shrimp, try this dish, as you will love it.
