Rosa's Café & Tortilla Factory — Restaurant in Frisco

Thought I would try this before my movie at Flix Brewhouse because I didn't necessarily want to try movie theater food for dinner. It's brand new...it's very clean... but I was expecting restaurant quality and it's more fast food. I ordered a fajita plate beef. You don't receive tortilla chips like a real rrstaurant. My meat was raw... very very bloody red... my meat was swimming in the beans so I had to scrape icky refried beans off of it. When I attempted to scoop up sour cream, cheese and guacamole I found what looked to be a generous scoop of each was really it was really just sitting on top of a bed of iceberg lettuce...which I don't eat... so I had to sit and pick out all the iceberg lettuce so that I could use it. For a family this might be a good thing... you don't have to pay a tip... you can cut down on the cost when feeding more people but it is not anything more than a glorified Taco Bueno. So big step down from a traditional Tex-Mex such as Angelina's in the colony and maybe a step up from Taco Bueno. But I want cooked meat when I order dinner. I thought maybe it was just the Liquid Smoke they use that gave it the red appearance but when I made my first fajita and bit into it it was raw. The fresh cooked tortillas were really good though.

Edit... I was seen by employees typing on my phone and taking pictures and the manager herself came up and asked me if everything was okay with my dinner and normally I will not talk with employees or management about bad service because I just don't want the drama of it but she mentioned that it was their opening weekend and could she give me a gift card to come back and try them again. For me it's not a money issue I can afford to eat wherever and whenever I want so the idea of free food if I didn't enjoy something is not very enticing... But if this is truly opening weekend they maybe have some Kinks they need to work out and some retraining of the cooks and maybe they can pull it together so I accepted the gift card and I will make it a point this week to come back and give it a second try. If it is better I will edit and change my star rating...if it's not I will leave it the way it was. And I also forgot to mention that the chocolate cake that I had was phenomenal it was halfway between a cake and a brownie and gooey fudge frosting poured over the top and it was so wonderful. So I will give them another try this week and edit...

If Speedy Gonzolez started a fast casual Mexican tortilla factory it would be called Rosas Cafe.

It seems like whenever I come here the food is fresh and consistent. I find myself always coming back because Chick-fil-A takes longer.The home made tortillas hit the spot and what can I say...? It’s fast really really fast. By keeping the menu simple and not having anything offerings that take time too cook the assembly process is something Henry Ford would be proud of if he saw it today. Come here for takeout though... tables are spaced close together without much separation.

Bring some tortilla dough. The saying goes ‘Time is money’ you should expect to Be ready to fork over some serious cash for lunch, I got the fajita plate and a drink and it was almost $20 with about 4-6oz of their marinated steak.

My Beef: Rosas cafe is not cheap but makes up for it in consistency and overall quality. My time is valuable to me and so Is quality so I begrudgingly pay the premium.

Improvements: I wish, however, that there were self cleaning table stations like you would find in a normal fast food joint vs the fast casual concept. I find that the staff doesn’t get out to bus tables that often and when they do they have to sometimes make several trips. They can dish it out faster than they can take it away.

To Management: In the 100 times I’ve been to Rosas I’ve never had a manager ask me how everything is or if they could get me anything. I’ve never been invited back.

More complements: Another plus is that Rosas has clean bathrooms. If you follow my reviews you would know how important bathrooms are to me. This establishment is great for parties particularly if you want to be in and out. I would like it if they had a Bar or Margaritas.

Raise the Bar: This place would be amazing for happy hours. I like the Rosas Cafe concept. Is it perfect? No. I hate the price, love the food and speed. It could be better but that’s why this is an opinion.

I will come back and hopefully you read this, give it a like, and tell...
