The Scene – Tourists and locals of all ages chow down at lunch and dinner, but the scene becomes younger and hipper as day turns to night. The decor evokes a sense of playful fun, thanks to touches like a neon-accented bar, purple ceiling and wall covered in maracas. – – The Food – For a light starter, order the tangy and fresh-tasting seviche served with avocado and thick homemade tostadas. Leave plenty of time if you want to fully enjoy the enchiladas de mole--slow chewing will unleash the subtle hints of cinnamon, chocolate and other secret spices. You'll have a…

Great Roasted Salsa!

by Tejas

Have been to Rosarios several times and haven't been disappointed. If you haven't figured it out yet, I think they have about the best fire-roasted salsa in "Tex-Mex City, USA" (aka, San Antonio), which is quite an accomplishment. The other great thing about Rosarios is that you can eat, drink and dance without leaving the place - nice to be able to make a night of it in the same establishment. Highly recommended.

  • Pros: Good chips, good marg's, great fire-roasted salsa
  • Cons: Parking, but no complaints once inside!

Seriously, Don't Wait

by MXMI

First I called to ask if I needed reservations. Answer was an abrupt "NO" and then he hung up on me. So we show up and ask for a table, granted on First Friday. The hostess says thirty minute wait for a table for two. An hour and fifteen minutes later, we are lead to "The Cave." It's a basement with a few tables. It smells musty and quite disgusting. I ask the hostess if she's joking. She smirks and asks if we want to wait longer? Seriously who thought it was a good idea to have tables down in the basement. Voices echo, so dont try having a private conversation. The only good thing about being seated downstairs was the attentive waiter. I think he felt sorry for the unlucky bunch of us stashed down there like unwanted guests. To top it off, the food was not worth the wait.

  • Pros: Southtown Location is hip
  • Cons: So so food is not worth the wait.

Great Atmosphere and Food!

by BryRee

Rosario's is a great Mexican restaurant! The atmosphere is festive and colorful, and the food is always excellent. They have GREAT margaritas and I love the smoky flavor of their salsa. I would definitely recommend this place - a San Antonio classic!

  • Pros: Best Salsa in town!
