“ My friend and I came to La Roca to enjoy some Mexican cuisine. We sat at the bar, because that was the only seating available. Our waitress was FANSTASTIC. Very attentive, kind, smiley, etc. The food was phenomenal, and I can't wait chow down again here sometime! ”
“ Everything about my first experience here was outstanding. From the moment we walked through the door, we were warmly greeted by the friendliest lady. After being seated, we asked for recommendations as it was our first time there. The lady (I’m so sorry I did not get your name), was super helpful with helping us decide what to order and was very patient throughout. The male server who helped after this was also fantastic and recommended the chipotle chicken burrito bowl. I am pleased to say it was fantastic. Everything about it was delicious and you could tell it was fresh and made with care. We visited on a weekday night so it was not busy yet the ambience and vibe of the place was extremely chill and calm. Will definitely be back in the summer for the club nights!! Thanks La Roca staff!! :)) ”
“ The food was good, it was different then what we are used to but still very good. Service was good, and the atmosphere was nice, we did go on a Thursday night so it was less busy. ”
“ Excellent food and drinks! The staff here are incredibly friendly and helpful — they even went out of their way to prevent my vehicle from being towed, which would’ve been a disaster for my family since we’re from out of town. That level of care says a lot. If you're in Winnipeg and craving Mexican cuisine, this is the place to go. Highly recommended! ”
“ Delicious and authentic Mexican food! Tonight I tried the crispy shrimp tacos with Mexican rice and equites (Mexican street corn). Appetizer was the Chiccarones. Pork pieces cooked in tomato with spices and herbs. Served with Chipotle dipping sauce. Yum! ”
“ Greatly enjoyed our dining experience here! Food was delicious. Service was impeccable! Music was great. Perfect for a date night or gathering with family/friends! ”
“ Came here for a business dinner. Gotta say it was a good experience. We called last minute and they were able to get us in. The patio is a nice one but sat inside on this visit. Food was good, service was a bit slow but think they were getting slammed. They were however knowledgeable and friendly! ”
“ I tried the tomato soup and tacos. They tasted wonderfully. Oh, a thing to improve, tho: the churros are lacking something. Maybe some vanilla essence? Not sure what it was, but they felt a bit bland. Staff was friendly, and the place was clean and nicely decorated. Definitely coming back. ”
