Rosa Mexicano at National Harbor offers a delightful Mexican dining experience with "fantastic service" and "delicious food," including standout guacamole and margaritas. While the atmosphere is generally pleasant, the restaurant has faced challenges with air conditioning and service speed, particularly on busy days. Overall, a satisfying spot with room for improvement.

A 4 top table with a chair on the end for a party of 5 was very uncomfortable and tight. Overall a bit overpriced.

This was our first time at Rosa Mexicano. The service was very good and friendly. Prices are high but so is all of National Harbor. MD. However, $35.00 for chicken fajitas is very high. $40.00 for steak and shrimp is very expensive. The steak was grisly. The chicken was overcooked. The table side made guacamole was very good. I used the rest room. There was no hand soap in either dispenser. Trash can was overflowing with used paper towels signaling that men’s room most likely was not cleaned all day.

Wonderful service! Melissa the manager was phenomenal and sat us right by the big windows to see the tree and wheel. The food was exceptional. Our server was so conscientious about my food allergy. He also was so friendly and happy even with being so busy!!

I haven’t been here in years. The restaurant is beautiful and has a great location. The staff was pleasant. The food however, was quite honestly not good. We ordered calamari and the shareable fajita dish that includes steak, chicken, and chorizo. Everything was bland. It was kind of shocking because the place smelled amazing but our food was not good. The mocktails were tasty. We did share our dissatisfaction with the waitress and she discounted our bill.

I came here for my birthday and our waiter was rude and we felt very rushed. He even gave us the bill before we could order dessert or before my daughter got the ice cream that came with her kids meal. After he placed the bill in front of me while we were in the middle of eating my fiancé and I were very confused as to why we were being rushed. I then had to ask for my daughter ice cream that came with her kids meal and we paid and left and had dessert someone else. Very very disappointed as someone who has been here several times. I Will not be returning.

The food was mediocre. The restaurant was extremely loud . The rice , appeared to be mixed with fresh and old rice . The birria consomé was a mixture of marinara and hot sauce . I was highly disappointed. I hadn’t been there in a while . I was truly hoping for a great dinner . Will most likely not be back .

Such a disappointment. We used to love coming here and saw that recent reviews had stated that it was trickling down hill, but we wanted to see for ourselves. I don’t know what happened, but the reviews don’t lie. We got Sangria and Queso Fundido. The Sangria tastes like some one mixed orange juice and wine and threw in some apples. Their Sangria used to be one of our favorites. The Queso Fundido was okay. Chips and salsa haven’t changed and are good. The service was meh. We kind of felt like we were bothering one of the bartenders. The hostess was very nice. It was such a let down after coming for so many years and it being such a fun and exciting place to eat to a place you were sort of anxious to get out of.
