Rosa Mexicana, New York

Entrance

On the 25th of December we did not really know what to do as many places and all shops in New York city are closed. We went to see a movie and looked for a Mexican restaurant which was open that day. We reserved a table and went to this restaurant.

A waiter came along and asked us how we would like our guacamole and made it in an instant. That was nice to watch.

They had a variety of Margaritas, so we had Margaritas of course.

They also gave us home made tortilla chips along with some salsa with the drinks.



As a main course we ordered different types of enchiladas. The portions were very generous. It was hard to finish one of them, especially with the sauce.

The enchiladas were delicious but way too much for us to eat. We saw that the neighboring table also did not manage to finish their enchiladas. The guacamole and the chips were enough for at least four people. After all that food, or even in between I decided to try some of their tequilas. I am not into tequila at all. You can order a selection of three tequilas which is what I did.

Selection of tequilas, silver something else and gold.

The tequilas were ok after all this as you need something to digest. They were definitely not worth the money though.

All in all, this was fun and something different. In our part of the world we rarely have authentic Mexican food. When you get the bill however, you are not that happy but I guess that we paid a lot for our drinks. If you want to try Mexican in New York, this is a good place to go too. I suggest that you go as a group of 4 at least.
