Hidden in the south west corner of Ft. Lowell and Campbell is a bustling and bright restaurant called Rosa's Mexican Food. As I entered the restaurant for the first time I was a little overwhelmed with all the people chatting, Spanish music playing in the background, waiters running around with food on carts and every wall covered in brightly covered paintings. There was so much going on that I wasn't quite sure what to do with myself. No one was there to greet me as I walked in. I was left to figure out that I had fight the line of people outside the door to sign the waiting list and write my name down in order to get a seat in this packed room that holds only about 120 people.

To my surprise we were seated rather quickly and I began eating some of the best salsa that I have ever had at any Mexican restaurant I have been to in the past. I was pleasantly surprised. Our order was taken quickly and served in a timely manner. I recommend this place to everybody. I had chicken flautas with rice and beans, my brother had red chile con carne enchilada and his girlfriend had a shredded beef enchilada. By the time we were done nothing was left on our plates. Literally. The quality and quantity of the food was great and it is reasonably priced. If you are looking for a lively atmosphere and amazing authentic Mexican food; Rosa's is where you need to go.
