Just blocks away from Manhattan’s
lively Union Square, Rosa Mexicano's third
New York
City
location provides a warm and vibrant setting for our award-winning
authentic Mexican cuisine. Designed by David Rockwell, the restaurant
features architectural accents inspired by the late, famed Mexican
architect, Luis Barragan. The internally illuminated electric-blue tiled
water wall features cliff diver figurines and candles among the
cascading water to separate the bar from the main dining room. Warm
terracotta and yellow colors with hot pink accents are featured
throughout the restaurant as well as traditional, one-of-a-kind Mexican
crafts, fabrics and artwork. This combination creates the perfect
backdrop for the festive atmosphere and innovative Mexican cuisine of
Rosa Mexicano.
When the first Rosa Mexicano location opened in 1984, New York Magazine
applauded them for introducing New Yorkers to a “hitherto unfamiliar,
elevated version of Mexican cuisine.” Today, they continue to redefine
expectations nationwide with authentic Mexican cooking, stylish spaces
and festive atmosphere.
Guided by the vision of Corporate Chef Christian Plotczyk and Culinary
Director David Suarez, all of the award-winning Rosa Mexicano dishes
remain faithful to their traditional roots while incorporating regional
accents and inspired innovation. You’ll experience that first hand when
you try the Pomegranate Margaritas or Guacamole en Molcajete, made in a
traditional lava-rock mortar and prepared tableside.
