The Texas Bucket List - Rosa’s Cantina

The Burger of the Week goes to an El Paso eatery made famous by Marty Robbin's song "El Paso."

[@bobgil3464]

I haven't been to Rosa's since 1989. Now living in Florida will be heading that way soon worth the drive!

I am writing this from a hotel in El Paso away for work. Visited Rosas cantina. Got tacos and a burrito. Cool little joint. Love from Pittsburgh

I knew the name of this place was so familiar, God, Marty Robbins is a legend.

[@fasteddie9055]

ROSA S CANTINA was a country crossover hit . It crossedover into pop high on the popularity listings!!!!! 1960

[@ratrodramblin]

First thing I thought of was Marty Robbin

[@harrisonthecarguy3734]

[@judygilleland9384]

[@mkcarrillo9]

My mom was the cook for 20+ Years with the original Owners Beto and Anita, never in the world a burger came a cross al Mexican food

HI LOVE YOUR SHOW BUCKET LIST....I LOOK FORWARD TO WATCHING ON YOU TUBE...HV A PLACE FOR YOU TO TRY....ANDREAS TACO SHOP IN BRENHAM TEXAS....MY FAMILY AND I VISITED TWICE THIS YEAR, SO DELICIOUS!! JUST FOUND THEM THIS SUMMER!!

[@mikecosta7591]

The burger now is around 10$ with fries but its pretty delicious

[@wilburmcbeezy6299]

Rosa’s is a favorite. Ive been going for as long as I can remember. Not going to knock the burger, but who in the hell goes to Rosa’s for a burger!?!?? Their food is decent but probably not even top 30 in El Paso. Cold Beer and a fun atmosphere with live music and great staff is what this place is all about. Ironically my go-to burger place in town is only about 2 miles down the road at Doniphan and Sunland Park - Toro Burger.

[@bobgil3464]

I went to Rosas about 25 years ago. I ate Mexican food not a burger. Will return.

"The queso and the cheese"❤

[@joeyclemenza7339]

in texas, "queso" and chile con queso are interchangeable.

[@rexoates4484]

If I wasn’t 700 miles away I’d try it.

[@alicia1396]

That burger I would not order. Just give me a cold one.🍺

[@radforduniversity6424]

3:58 - "The queso and cheese" haha, so the cheese and the cheese

[@elbob248]

Learn the difference before you comment.

[@radforduniversity6424]

Robert Palmer queso is Spanish for cheese, man.

[@elbob248]

Yeah. I live about 15 minutes from Mexico, so I clearly know that. Queso is also a side dish or appetizer that consists of melted cheese and green chili, which is clearly what he is putting on that burger.

[@radforduniversity6424]

Robert Palmer Oh, you mean Chili con Queso, yes. Literal translation, chiles with cheese haha. You live so close to the border, go over the border and ask for queso, and they will hand you a block of cheese, sir.

[@elbob248]

I have done that many times. In fact, just last Sunday. And you could not be more incorrect. Thanks for chiming in though.

[@12121149]

Song was before the bar Fact.

[@harrisonthecarguy3734]

yes very much my good sir

[@carloshasette7233]

Show me the Sunday Max’s

[@sg1770]

Grateful Dead did a great version.

[@summertea545]

LOL.....should drop the burgers and stick to other Mexican dishes.

[@jlerma5677]

Bum was burnt !! Burger look wack !!

[@jimmysapien9961]

J Lerma I like my BUNS TOASTED - both sides !!!👍🏻

[@smokefire_southern_eats]

Looks like a frozen hamburger patty. Seriously?!!!!

[@johnthompson5319]

Flat grill fake cheese not impressed, might as well have gone to McDonalds.

[@alrome67]

No es comida Mexicana. Ven al centro de Mexico a conocer la mejor comida de mexico. La comida de la frontera es muy NorteAmericana. No existe esa comida de esa manera en Mexico. NO ES MEXICANA

[@LosianOne]

Si pero ellos no son mexicanos

[@gesucastello1986]

Who the fuck ask you?.

[@mikecosta7591]

Quien dijo que la comida era mexicana?

[@mikecosta7591]

Y las hamburgers no llevan winnie , bologna y quien sabe que mas chingados le ponen🤣

[@wavylee4209]

Frozen patties and burned bread 🤷‍♂️

[@johnthompson5319]

American cheese, so mundane, not impressed!

[@joeyclemenza7339]

it's not a place you really go to eat.... it's a bar. it's also a lot of fun to take out of towners, seeing that it's the actual bar marty robbins is referring too (i don't care what that old man said, it is).

[@johngarza8291]

The patty looks like it's a frozen type

[@bagnome]

I bet you're a lot of fun at parties.
