Fat Rosie’s is a fun, hip & festive family-friendly Mexican Taqueria featuring a modern take on traditional Mexican cuisine and craft cocktails.
On a trip to Mexico after opening his first couple of restaurants, Chef/Proprietor, Scott Harris met a wonderful old Agave farmer with a dedicated pet donkey. This man’s steadfast donkey had worked alongside him in the Agave fields for over 20 years!
While most people would disregard their work animal, the old man farmer treated Fat Rosie as part of the family. They had a rare and inseparable bond that had formed through the many years of hard work, sweat, and tears. Scott admired the love and care that this old man had for his trusted donkey.
He admired it so much in fact, that one night after many shots of tequila he promised the old farmer he would one day open a tequila bar and name it after the beloved donkey, Fat Rosie.

Wow! Is all I have to say from the entrance to the exit!! Alfredo was our waiter and he was excellent!! Explaining my experience here would take forever so maybe my pictures will do justice 🍹🍽. The tortilla soup was phenomenal♡ "from the cook and waiter", me and my boyfriend got a free shot!!! The buss boys the bartender all the other waiters made sure everything was taken care of they had eyes on the restaurant entirely. I loved this place so much! They cleared the tables in a timely manner ♡ just everything! There is always a BUT in there right? Lol Since I thought so highly of this place and the service and atmosphere in general i had one thought to myself. They should take the plates with silverware sets from the table that dont accommodate the table for sanitary reasons. (Like they do at super high end restaurants ya know) we accidentally touched the plates that weren't being used.. andddd they have to move the plates anyways when cleaning the table from service ya know anything could be done to them in theory but we all hope for the best. Anyways enjoy the art around the restaurant its amazing! And Alfredo was very knowledgeable in everything I asked him from food preperation to restaurant history culture history!! Thanks !!
The absolute best way to celebrate a birthday! We are from San Diego and finding good Mexican food in the Midwest is hard! But Fat Rosie’s is the best even compared to SD. Rosa was amazing! Everything came out on time and was delicious. Cheers to Rosa! We will be returning.
This is a fun place for a meal. It may be a bit loud when crowded. The talking male mannequin in the woman’s restroom was not welcomed by my wife. Food is good and comes out fast. The menu is typical chain Mexican. Good not great. Service was very good. Attentive and helpful.
Maria was amazing!!! She was super attentive and informative about our with meal selections. The mole was amazing and if it wasn't for her we would not have gotten it! We love you Maria!
I can’t even count how many times we’ve come to this fat Rosie’s location. The food is always on point and service is ALWAYS out of this world! If you’re coming in for any occasion, ask for Maria! She made our night :)
