★★★★★ 5.0 Megan Forbes · Jan 2026

Rosa has a 100% dedicated gluten free kitchen, making it completely celiac safe!!! The food and service is so amazing here that we’ve been twice in the past month, including tonight for our anniversary. Some of the things we’ve tried include the queso, frozen margs, asada fries, enmoladas, asada and quesabirria tacos, and the tres leches cake! Everything has been incredible, especially the enmoladas. I’d never tried mole before Rosa’s, it’s delicious!! We truly can’t overstate the quality of the food and overall experience here. 100% recommend to anyone

Great food. Entirely gluten-free menu made finding stuff to eat easy and they were able to easily make some of the items with dairy modified to be dairy free alongside some already dairy free options. Food had a lot of flavor and the ceviche guajillo sauce was so good they should start bottling and selling it. One of few Mexican places in the area that actually has included chips and salsa. Idk what they do to make the shrimp so good but both the fajitas shrimp and fried shrimp on the tacos were some of the best I've had. Will definitely go back and the staff was very nice as well. Everything was very well put together and so many homemade items on the menu made the flavors come together very well.

★★★★★ 5.0 Joybeth Sullivan · Jan 2026

Food was really good! As someone who’s gluten free, I love that they changed the menu to be entirely gluten free. I got the chicken fajitas and they were great. We also got the dip trio. My only note is there was no music playing in the restaurant which made the chatter super loud.

I did not like this place at all when it first opened. The positive transformation is amazing. They now have creative, high quality food. I enjoyed the watermelon carpaccio. The fish tacos feature grouper either breaded and fried or grilled. For dessert we had the chocolate tres leches with ice cream. The portion is huge — perfect for splitting between two (or three) people. The kitchen is gluten free which was a pleasant surprise. The only thing missing is gluten free beer. There are many excellent low gluten beers they could serve. Not sure why they would offer gluten free food without a gluten free beer. I suggest Estrella Daura. Even having Corona Light would be nice since it has a very low gluten content. We went back and enjoyed the waffle fries topped with beef, guac, pico, and

★★★★☆ 4.0 Dillon Kelly · Jan 2026

We’ve been a few times, but this was our first return trip since the menu update and the experience was mostly positive with a few spots for improvement. Pros: They made the whole kitchen dedicated Gluten Free which is amazing! Their house salsa is some of the best in ATL. The waffle fries with hanger steak is amazing and we’d go back just for that. Margs and quesadilla were good too (a treat for my celiac wife that usually can’t have big quesadillas). Cons: Acoustic struggles indoors. It’s super loud and the waiter couldn’t hear us trying to order, you have to raise your voice to hear one another, and you can’t understand the music. Acoustic advice: they need about 3x as many acoustic panels (rockwool or owens corning 703) on the ceiling and walls to actually make a difference. Maybe att
