   Food was ok. The chimichanga was not has crispy and lacked flavor. Same with the shrimp fajita. Service was great and the place is very well designed and nice.

   Food was great as always. We were seated next to a large group, which made it more difficult to converse throughout our meal. We had to ask our server for the margaritas we ordered, since they still hadn’t arrived by the time we got our food (which was very quick!). She returned to tell us that our drinks had been made and sent to another table, so I’m not sure what would have happened if I hadn’t asked about them. She didn’t check in on us at all throughout the meal, and I had to flag her down to ask for water refills while we waited for our drinks. To compensate us for the delay, she brought out a complimentary fried ice cream dessert for us to share, which we appreciated. Once we finished with our meal, we waited for about 30 minutes for our checks, with our server saying “I suppose you two want your checks, huh?” We paid promptly but realized that our cards had been swapped. Luckily our totals were within a dollar of each other, so we didn’t need to have it corrected. As we were leaving at 8:30, we discovered the restaurant closed at 8:00. Our server was just not in any rush and was inattentive to us. I’m not sure if she was just having a bad night, or was very new to the job, but if I had to base my experience just on this one visit, I wouldn’t be back. However, Rojo is one of my favorite restaurants, and will give this experience a pass.

   Tasty food, great service. The chips and salsa were so good. The chips were warm. Food portions were just right.

   The service at this location compared to West End is wildly better. The chips were also nicely hot and salted, though the colas did taste pretty bad. It was nice to have good service at a Rojo, as the ten times at west end have all been mediocre at best and we are super easy patrons and turn tables fast as we know what were there to order.

   My wife and I tried Rojo the first time as a date night. Online menu looked amazing, and I was so excited to try so much. However, service was terrible. We waited over 10 minutes to be greeted by our server, drinks took forever, then ordering, then our check. Avocado egg rolls were good, but the sauce was awesome. The chicken tacos were underwhelming, just ordinary. My wife shared similar thoughts on her fish tacos. We were both bewildered by the purée of refried beans, and thought we should’ve been given soup spoons instead of forks. We both left, under the impression, that that will be our only visit.

   This is the only mexican restaurant that I have found that tastes like the Tex Mex back home in Texas. Delicious food.

   The food, in general, was fine. The chips and salsa were all kinds of deliciousness. The refried beans (while too smooth for my liking) were delicious. The rice was way too sweet for me. VERY limited menu options, but not all that authentic, compared to other Mexican restaurants in the area. It would be nice if they offered "combo" entrees. Not a lot of food for the money.
