If I had to choose one word to describe my experience at Rosa Blanca.... WOW! When I walked it I felt like I was sitting in a nice bar or restaurant in Miami. You feel the energy and vibe of the place as soon as you walk in. I got a mojito and my wife got a Pina color on the rocks and both drinks were very good. We started with the empanadas, 1 chicken, 1 beef both were crispy, tender and packed with flavor. For my entree I got the Cubano, absolutely fantastic sandwich, crispy buttery toasted bread,packed with meat, slight acidity from the pickles all solidified with melty cheese, I would drive an hour for this ! For sides we got the Rosa chips, the maduros and croquettes. All good but the standout was the croquettes they rival Amada in old city Philly. Lastly for dessert we for the cafe con leche flan and guava tres leches cake both phenomenal. Don't walk. RUN. Once the word gets out about this place getting a seat is going to be hard.

This place was fire loved the service and the food great! I’ll be back for sure. Food was very tasty we loved everything we ordered. A few things I would correct the water needed ice it was served warm it was hot that day, the music outside could have been just a little louder and the food was a little cold when it came I want my food hot. Other than that it was great and we will be back very soon!!

My husband and I ate here for the first time and really enjoyed it. I ordered the Rosa Bowl he ordered the Paisa Pork. Lots of flavor! The drinks were very interesting and amazing. The espresso martini with the cream was unbelievable. Our server, Yaya, was excellent as well. Very friendly and knowledgeable. We’ll definitely be back.

Great service from everyone, the food was great and the drinks were exceptional especially the jungle bird and the archer. I loved everything about this place. It's about time the valley is bringing places like these in our area.

Food was amazing, service was undeniably great. Thank you Alex for your help and hospitality. Thank you Rosa Blanca restaurant for everything. This is a great Cuban spot. I’ve had Cuban food in Miami and this beat it. The chicken milanesa and yucca fries are TOP TIER ! Chefs kiss
