Of Mexican essence

Rosetta is located in Colonia Roma in what was formerly a mansion. The restaurant has a structure that recalls one of the most recognized eras of Mexico City architecture.

The place is a mixture of green and wood in a renovated house. Just sitting in the restaurant is an experience.

From corn to elote (street corn)

The elote (street corn) tamales have an elaborate process. They first have to be cleaned when they are tender. The leaves are then removed to be used later. Finally, the corn is threshed with a knife to remove the grains.

A gourmet experience

Haute cuisine

In addition to the traditional food in Rosetta you can sample the creations of chef Elena Reygada. Cabbage tacos, for example. The cabbage leaves are used as a tortilla, then pipián (seed salsa) is added with a green pistachio base and it is given a touch of the salicornia plant.
