Taco Rosa

Irvine, CA

Mexican

$20 to $30

Our rating: 2 forks

Taco Rosa is the “fine dining” sibling to casual and innovative Taco Mesa restaurant. Go for lunch. The dinner crowd is noisy and the dishes blend together and less tasty then the lighter lunch menu. Do try the Mojita Margarita and the Platon De Botanos (steak nachos), carnitas, and any of the salads.

Taco Rosa

13792 Jamboree Road Irvine, CA 92602 Irvine Marketplace, just north of the 5 FWY 714-505-6080
