Yes, the service is hit-or-miss. I cant remember how many times that weve been, but Im thinking three times...maybe four. Only once was the service exemplary. One time (the first visit, shortly after they opened), it was a train wreck. But I suspect that it will improve with time. Our last visit was just fine. An expansive menu. Stuff that Ive not seen elsewhere. Stuff that Id probably never order, but Id try, if I was offered a taste. If you go with a combo plate, youll conclude that this place is mediocre pseudo-Mexican. Ive done that and that food is mediocre and typical. I mean, a ground beef burrito is either okay or it isnt...theres scant middle ground for complaints. Instead, try something different. The fish tacos are kick ass. The steak nachos are a hit. Whatever you do, dont leave without getting a side of charro beans. Good for your heart, from what Ive heard for 40+ years. Srsly, they are amazing. My lady offered me a taste from her (small side) bowl, and I damned near commandeered the remainder. Get some and try them. The margaritas are tasty. But, again, we have a binary path here. Dont expect unicorns to pop out of the walls and dance for you if you order one. Order a dozen, drink them, and maybe the time-space continuum will hack up something like that. A solid four stars, even with the imprecise and unpredictable quality of service. Oh, ask for some hot salsa...they dont automagically bring it out, but they have some that is pretty snappy. Go forth and nosh...

For one, the service is sooo slow and on top of that we were sat next to a live roach on its back moving. We told the Manager lady and she said it happens b/c its summer time. She LEFT it there!!!!!!! We should have known at that point to RUN! How can it get worse? Well i ate about 3/4 of my salad to then find what looked like a wing/body part of a roach with a leg attached. I told the server which told the manager and 5 minutes later comes the manager with a piece of onion that looked nothing like what i had showed her and told me it was raw onion. Needless to say... i will NOT be coming back nor will i allow any of my family/co-workers.

Stopped in because I previously went to pick up a gift certificate for a friend. Saw the margaritas and they were everything you wanted to see in a giant margarita. I had to go back and get one. I think they were on sale the night I went which was the Friday before V-day. I cant say how much they are regularly but even if they were twice the price I paid, it would have been worth it. I had some queso and of course the chips that just come with everything. It was great. The bartenders were great (sat at the bar). I am for sure going back for more than just margaritas next time.

I have a group of ladies we meet once a month for lunch and go to a different restaurant each month, I was very disappointed when I got my bill two very tiny bowls of cheese sauce 10.00 dollars I got fish tocos which were ok but she asked me if I wanted black beans and rice or re fried beans and rice making me believe that came with it but everything was al a carte, also charged me for the sour cream which was two spoonfuls there pricing is very unfair and we will not be going back there again, be fair and your customers will come back.

One star is too many. We went to Rojo at 3:30 Saturday afternoon.Were huge foodies and couldnt wait to try it. WAIT was the key word. There were 2 customers at the bar, and one table on the other side of the restaurant. We sat down and waited, and waited. The Bartender was waiting on the table. Nobody greeted us, ever. We waited 10 minutes and left. Wont return. If this is the way a new business treats its customers, remember tat there are hundreds of places to eat in the same area. No reason to eat at Rojo.

Our go to place for a quality Mexican dish in Roswell. No plates of rice, beans and unidentifiable lumps slathered with cheese here, the food is fresh, tasty and spliced just right. I would call this upscale Mexican food at a reasonable price. We have dined at Rojo several times in the last year, never a bad experience with staff or food. My favorite is the carnitas.

Great food and atmosphere! Had a great time until our server returned after dinner to (very arrogantly) ask if there was anything wrong with his service. He was adequate, and our tip matched. Our table was well over %15 - as a person who has been in the service industry, I would never have done what he did. Very disappointing and the reason we will not be returning.

We dined on a weekday night, and the service was terrible. We had to get up from the table several times and find the waiter just to get drinks, salsa, etc. Even when there were only a few people remaining in the restaurant, it still took half an hour to get our food. The food was pretty good at least, but we probably wont be returning due to poor service.

The food here is always delicious and they have great lunch & dinner specials. Im always showing friends this place and they thank me afterwards. My personal favorite is the burrito al carbon. They actually have incredibly good hot wings too. Cant say enough good things about this place and Leo & Maria are always great host. Will be back again soon!

This place is awesome! Went here for lunch last weekend, great service amazing burritos and the best margarita Ive had in a while. The staff was very attentive and friendly, would definitely come back with friends to watch more games and take advantage of their pitcher specials.

Very good food, amazing enviroment with lots of color, and fantastic service. Bathrooms could use some renovations though like new stalls and toilets and maybe they could clean it a bit better but overall amazing. Definently a great place to go and I will come back :)

Solid place to grab a bite. Fun, festive decorations. Service was attentive and cordial. Drink specials are fantastic ($3 margaritas on Tuesday). The food was perfectly cooked (we had the fajitas). Other than the hair we found in the queso, we loved it!

What sets them apart is the menu is not complicated unlike a lot of Mexican Restaurants where the menu is pages of the same thing drench in sauce. The service is consistent and youll see the manager around checking on the customers.
