Rosa’s Mexican Food
May 12, 2007 | By Kelley Koehler | Filed Under Restaurants
I love Mexican food. A lot.
Quite frankly, if you can’t put salsa on something, or otherwise make it spicy, it just isn’t worth eating.
One of my favorite spots in Tucson is Rosa’s Mexican Food, at 1750 E Ft. Lowell Road, on the Southwest corner of Ft. Lowell and Campbell.
Rosa’s is a corner unit of a strip mall, but don’t let the humble exterior fool you. Inside is a riot of color and taste and smell and, oh yeah, my favorite salsa in town. It’s a perfect spicy level – not too much, not too little – with an abundance of garlic.
The walls are adorned with art and artifacts from Mexico, along with photos of celebrities who have visited Rosa’s and a large handpainted mural. It’s casual, friendly, and crowded during peak times, but always worth a short wait.
This is my favorite, the #12. Three chicken tacos with rice and beans, mmmm….
