What R V likes about Rosales Mexican Restaurant:
Stopped in and got a chicken burrito that was better then I expected, staff needs to learn about customer service and when it's ok to mess around with each other. I will stop in when I'm in the area again but not a place I would travel to. View all feedback. What Trey Steckline doesn't like about Rosales Mexican Restaurant:
Yea this is one of my favorite Mexican places in the world. The burritos are good as heck and taste like a cake. Family owned and I’ve never had a bad meal here in the 6 years I’ve lived in SB. Definitely eat here. View all feedback.

This Mexican restaurant located in SB is a favorite among locals, offering delicious burritos that are described as tasting like cake. With flavorful rice and refried beans, along with a good salsa quemada, diners can find a variety of tasty options on the menu. The chile tamale with very good masa, as well as the molcajete served on a lava stone bowl, are recommended choices. Additionally, the fast service and spicy salsas enhance the dining experience. While some may find the staff in need of better customer service skills, the overall cleanliness and friendliness of the place make it a great stop for lunch. Whether trying the shrimp, the taquitos, or the crunchy tacos, guests are sure to be pleased with the quality and variety of dishes available. Next time you're in the area, be sure to check out this gem for yourself.

Food taste good but portions are small especially with the high prices. I felt that the chicken fajita dish was lacking enough chicken.

One of the best unknown gems in Santa Barbara It's not as well known as los agaves down the street so you come in here and RARELY get a line.
