Bad service, bad atmosphere, disappointing food.

I seriously don't know why this restaurant is considered to be one of the best Mexican places in New York. My first (and last) time to be there was extremely disappointing. My wife and I were seated by the bar where about 50 phony people were standing and drinking right above our table. So perhaps this was a one time bad experience, but the food was just an overpriced dish which should be simple but is made complicated. After visiting Rosa Mexicano, I've decided that there is no point to trying to put a fancy label on this type of cuisine. Mexican food should stay simple and down to earth, just as the place it came from.
