Sergio Artiga’s love for food began in his mother’s kitchen in El Salvador. There he learned the simplicity of letting “food be food”. Freshness and proper preparation;
allowing the flavor of the simplest ingredients to be the star of each dish.
Because of his love for simple fresh ingredients, Chef Sergio considers Rosie’s combination fajitas one of his favorites. “Rosie’s fajitas are made from the finest ingredients, incredibly fresh,” Chef Sergio says. “We cut our own meats every
morning, produce arrives daily and our tortillas are handmade and prepared to order. The flavors are extraordinary!”
Never choosing to eat alone, Artiga enjoys dining with friends and family. “Meal time is the time for a cocktail, relaxing with great company and anticipating
wonderful food,” says Chef Sergio. “Buen provencho!”
Rosie’s Mexican Cantina serves honest handmade Tex Mex cuisine, prepared from scratch each day. Guests can experience traditional favorites such as Chile rellenos,
handmade tamales and Texas style enchiladas along with House Specialties unique to Rosie’s.
