Review Rosie's Red-hot Cantina & Taco Joint - Wellington

Funky little place with a cool vibe. Tacos had a nice kick and the sauce for the chicken was super tasty. The highlight was the slushy margaritas. I didn't have the monster nachos but that thing looked impressive and it seemed to be a favourite.

First time eating here this evening . It was a busy Monday night but we received very good service from all the staff, fast and friendly. We were greeted on arrival, taken to our table and then got our order, all of that happened in just less than 10 minutes. We loved all the food. The servings were huge, the Monster nachos could definitely be shared by 3-4 people. Nice ambience and vibe of the place. Will definitely be back again to try other foods from the menu.

First time here, birria was delicious , and monster nachos were value for money..we didn't realise just how monster they would be, ended up going home with so much leftovers. Could definitely feed a group of 4 at least.The pizza was not so good though, quite dry and not worth the price. The only other downfall is not enough lighting outside , was a struggle to see my food . Other than that, everything else was amazing.

I recently dining at Rosie's Red Hot Cantina, and overall, it was a delightful experience. The first thing that caught my attention was the great-priced menu offering a selection of delicious Mexican-styled food. From tacos to burgers, there was something for everyone. While the service was okay, it's important to note that the place was bustling on a Sunday night. The fact that it was so busy is undoubtedly a positive sign, indicating that Rosie's is a popular spot among locals and visitors alike. Despite the busyness, the staff managed to handle the crowd efficiently and were courteous throughout. One of the standout aspects of Rosie's Red Hot Cantina is the pricing. Compared to other restaurants in the area, Rosie's offers the best value for your money. It's refreshing to find a place that not only serves quality food but also keeps affordability in mind. The reasonable prices make Rosie's a great option for those on a budget or looking for a good deal. In terms of the food itself, I was thoroughly impressed. The Mexican-styled dishes were flavorful, well-prepared, and generously portioned. The menu catered to different tastes and dietary preferences, ensuring there was something to satisfy everyone's cravings. Whether you're a fan of spicy flavors or prefer milder options, Rosie's has got you covered. Based on my experience, I would wholeheartedly recommend Rosie's Red Hot Cantina to anyone in search of delicious Mexican cuisine at an affordable price. The combination of a great-priced menu, decent service, and a bustling atmosphere on a Sunday night makes it a standout option in the area. I left feeling satisfied, and I am already looking forward to my next visit to Rosie's.

Great food and friendly service! Lucky for me I popped in on Taco Tuesday, which meant $6 Taco's!! I got there before the lunchtime rush, or so it seemed sitting outside, and received my order faster than expected. I had the Cheeto Chicken Taco and still dream about the flavour and texture combinations! Wish there was one of these in Auckland!! So happy I ordered two!!

Absolute beautiful place Rosie’s is! The food was insanely good and a wonderful atmosphere. The only down fall is the music was a tad bit too loud (no I’m not old! 26 lol) so hearing others at the table was a bit difficult. But otherwise all workers were great and really helpful!

The tacos are amazing! Highly recommend! I demolish them far too quickly and they're very messy but oh so worth it.

The place is nice but it took us a while before we get our sit place our order, it might be still effect of understaff. The ambiance was nice and cool. Margarita was yum! Their signature chicken wings is a must and monster nachos was gigantic and yum!

Awesome place. The service was great, and it was exceptionally quick, considering there were a lot of people there. They have a lot of outdoor seating, which is great, so you can soak up the outdoor vibe of people. The food? Well we had rad that the monster nachos were pretty good so that's what we ordered, we were asked if there were 4 of us and we did say no only 2....when it arrived we then figured out why they asked that. They aren't kidding when they say they are HUGE!! . Now I'm not a big eater but my other half isn't shy and even he couldn't handle it. We asked for a doggie bag and that covered dinner and was still not finished. So if you love nachos and want a decent feed, order this, you won't be disappointed.

The first night I went here they were out of a lot of food because they had been busy so I came back the next day. The food was pretty good, though I definitely would suggest that you need at least 3 people to finish off the Monster Nachos. They are pretty massive (but good). Also had the Chicken Wings (really good and not too spicy at all) and a Taco (it was Tuesday after all). A good experience overall and some nice outdoor dining.
