About the restaurant

If we were to take out a personal ad, we would describe ourselves as fun, outgoing, energetic and good looking. The good looking part might be a stretch, but the other words fit us perfectly.

If you've ever been to a Señor Frog's, anywhere around the world, you already know that we're a place where people of all backgrounds hang together, dance, sing and basically act the way they want - without worrying about silly rules and regulations.

Our Philosophy is simple: have fun, let yourself go.

Throw caution to the wind and do something daring. Forget all of your responsibilities and vacation like no other crazy tourist has ever had, have a great time loosing up and leaving your tensions behind. Hanging out with your family or having a couple tequilas with your best buds, just have fun, let yourself go.

When you're at Señor Frog's, you're gonna smile -even if we have to hold you down and tickle you (which we´ve been know to do).

Rosa Negra in Cancun is a vibrant culinary gem that perfectly blends contemporary chic with traditional Latin flair, creating a lively yet sophisticated atmosphere ideal for any occasion. The menu offers a delightful fusion of Latin American flavors, featuring standout dishes like fresh ceviche, tender beef tenderloin with chimichurri, and innovative shrimp aguachile. Their impressive cocktail selection, including a perfectly balanced signature margarita, complements the exceptional and friendly service provided by the attentive staff. Enhanced by live music, Rosa Negra delivers an unforgettable dining experience that, while on the higher end price-wise, is well worth it for the quality, ambiance, and overall excellence. After 9 PM, the restaurant transforms into a big party, adding an extra layer of excitement for both locals and tourists seeking a top-tier meal and vibrant nightlife in Cancun. Highly recommended!
