If you care about breakfast burritos, you should read this review.I take my breakfast burritos seriously. Some often say too seriously. Ignore those people like I do. Cafe Rosalena has the best off-the-menu breakfast burritos for at LEAST 50 miles. Im talking perfectly rolled, delicious tortillad, fluffy egged, veggie-friendly masterpieces of breakfast cuisine.I have only had them twice out of a fear that if the first delicious wrapped burrito was a fluke, then I might never again taste the glory of my first bite. My fears were unfounded. The second burrito might have even been better.Their various colored sauces are excellent. Im partial to the creamy orange, but the salsa red is nothing to scoff at.Their staff know how to handle the traffic, their drinks are fresh and delish, and all in all I cant make up a way for the location or fare to improve, even if I tried.Do yourself a favor and get ten of these for all the people you love.
You could probably get a single breakfast burrito from here and eat it for two days- theyre massive! Mine never last that long though... So many options, and they apparently have other things on their menu that arent breakfast burritos? Staff is lovely and sweet. On our most recent visit, we got there right after they opened and they gave us a small piece of their chocolate chip bread as a little extra something and it was like half a loaf!
The veggie breakfast burrito was great! I also got the fresh squeezed orange juice to go with it. The OJ was so good I drank it way faster than I should have and needed to get up from my table outside to get a glass of water. I was hesitant to get up from the small table outside and leave my backpack and computer unattended, but before I could even stand up one of the workers inside dropped a glass of ice water in front of me and said, “Here ya go, to get you over the finish line!” And boy did I need it, that burrito was massive. Seriously, excellent food and amazing service! Thank you!!!
Excellent burritos, fast service. House made orange juice is amazing too
The employees here are super friendly and helpful. The food is absolutely, without a doubt delicious!You need to try their fresh squeezed orange juice and their homemade horchata.I am sitting here right now miserably full because the food tasted so good I didnt want to stop eating.Our group had four different breakfast burritos and all gave two thumbs up.The salsa isnt as spicy as I feared. If you like spice, request the hotter salsa. I loved the mild salsa myself.
Our family has enjoyed their breakfast burritos for years. They are delicious and filling. Recently, I tried their quiche and was very please! Best part, their employees are always kind.
Best Breakfast Burrito on the planet. But beware.. its also the largest. You will need to be hungry to finish it whole. Cool vibe to the place too. Fresh squeezed OJ was good as well
The location pretty convenient for me and I like the portions they serve.
Flew in from PDX and grabbed the rental, while we waited for others we came to Cafe Rosalena for some breakfast burritos and OJ. My goodness the staff is amazing and the veggie burrito was excellent! They even cooked me up some side bacon since my lady partner is the veggie lover ;)Must visit this place, they were busy but turning em out quick and delicious!
Definitely NOT the best breakfast burrito in town, the county or the country. But the OJ is why they get 2 stars. And customer service makes you think you about to get the best burrito but then $75 for 3 people later was the most expensivist.
Chorizo with the orange sauce is the move here. Excellent. The bacon one is good but not at the same level as the chorizo. Fresh squeezed OJ too. Sit outside and look at a palm tree lined street with mountains in the background.
Cute sandwich shop that is very good at what it does. Been here several times and the food has been fresh and tasty every time. Nice to meet up with some locals, have a quick bite, then walk down the way for a coffee.
The crab sandwich was good but I bit into splinter in the crab meat (see photo) and yes I removed the toothpick before taking a bite. I ordered a salad, sandwich, and Horchata. I picked up the bag from the counter but when I got home found the Horchata was missing and didnt want to drive back.Service was good and staffs are friendly.
I usually call 20 minutes ahead to make sure I don’t wait that long but lately they not only have gotten my order wrong but also never have my order ready and have made me wait an extra 20 minutes. Not great costumer service
Amazing huge and well prepared burrito! Got the food super fast and staff is very friendly.
Amazing little Cafe with a great selection of sandwiches, and breakfast burritos. The homemade salsas are amazing as well as the fresh squeezed orange juice.
Amazing breakfast burrito with orange souse!We stopped by here with my husband and even one shared burrito was enough to get full both of us)
Huge chorizo and potatoes burrito for $13. Decent burrito. Took a few minutes. Orange sauce is good.
I got the ham breakfast burrito with the orange sauce and I swear this is the best burrito of my life. The freshly squeezed orange juice was an added bonus and I loved it with the hour burrito!
The breakfast burritos are amazing and their signature Cesar salad is perfect for those who want a bunched up grilled chicken salad!
Delicious and nice space outdoors!Breakfast burrito was massive and tasted great. The chicken Philly was also really good.
Best breakfast burrito in town, the orange sauce continues to be excellent.
Just had their Breakfast Burrito and I give a 5 star rating 😋 😎
Great place for breakfast and lunch. Fabulous staff and food thank you Rosalena
Still the best breakfast burrito around! Treat yourself and get the fresh squeezed orange juice.
Go here for the breakfast burritos which are killer. I cant ever finish one. My next visit i will order a salad or sandwich. Employees are very friendly. This is a popular place as customers are constantly coming in for food.
Hadnt been here in years...why!?! Delicious food (and bevvys) and the service is so good. A personal feel you dont find often. Will be back.
The best!! So delicious, one of my favorite places to eat breakfast burritos
Great food, huge portions, not bad prices
I really loved the foods of this restaurant and its services offered. It also has a refreshing view that you can feel relax. Their services were all worth it! Thank you so much!
The owner is super sweet, hospitable, and kid friendly! The Brandon salad is the best! And their fresh squeezed OJ! YUM! Cant wait for their alcohol license to kick in to enjoy a fresh squeezed mimosa with brunch!
Big scrumptious breakfast burritos, call ahead of time
Best Breakfast Burritos and Great Coffee
Wonderful burritos especially the veggie one. So filling!!!
The sandwiches here are incredible and the house iced tea had a floral quality that was delicious.
I stayed in San Jose for two nights and I went to Cafe Rosalena the morning I left, and the food and coffee were superb! I got the turkey sandwich and white chocolate mocha. They also make amazing fresh squeezed orange juice.
Love this place, great burritos.
Food was okay. But good customer service
The food is super good and fresh. BIG DELICIOUS SALADS!!! The best salads around, friendly people, and the price is good as well.Thank you Cafe Rosalena.
Great breakfast burritos, quick service and friendly staff! Support this small business!
Amazing taste with their salsa included as well as fresh squeezed orange juice to clear the palette!!! Wow!!!!
Just visited Rosalitas for the first time today. Had a wonderful crab sandwich and my buddy had a the grilled chicken. High quality and we will be back again. Staff was also super nice!
Delicious breakfast burritos.
Literally one of the best breakfast burritos around. The chorizo and egg burrito is made with great chorizo (not gristley at all), and the sausage and bacon burritos are stuffed full of scrambled eggs, meat and cheese -- and they dont skimp on the avocado. Their orange sauce famous for a reason, as is the outdoor summer vibe!
The sauce is the reason to go in the first place. We got the green and orange sauce. It was so good we saved it for dinner later. We got breakfast burritos and they were so big and delicious. Really my only complaint is that I didnt get more sauce when I went.
Their breakfast burritos are very good and huge. The green salsa is my favorite and orange sauce is good. This spot is definitely the number one spot for burritos.
Friendly staff. 3 lb. Breakfast burrito to fuel the day.
Breakfast burrito was excellent! Place had a lot to live up to with signs saying worlds best breakfast burritos! I ordered a combo one w/ sausage & bacon. What I regret is not ordering the fresh squeezed OJ they make on site every morning. Was a little meh about paying $5 for it and then not liking it. The owner later on came around passing out free samples and for good reason bc when Im back in the area Ill be getting one next time hahah. Smart move!
Terrible customer service, this was my first time here and I have no idea why this eatery is rated highly. The food is mediocre, long wait, and woman at the counter has an awful attitude right off the bat. I watched her be the same way with numerous customers, unprovoked.I ordered the quiche which was pulled out of the cooler and then microwaved for far too long after they forgot about my order. It had a rubber texture and tasted like grease, worst quiche Ive ever put in my mouth. I instead shared a friends meal. Their burrito was at least made in the spot but was poorly compiled. The wrapping paper was carelessly wrapped up into the middle of the burrito.Astonishingly undeserving of your money.
Amazing breakfast burritos. Go there for their rich, filling burritos. They fit nicely in a backpack.In fact, I havent tried any of their other food.Though they have good cookies and fresh-sgueezed orange juice, too.
I enjoyed my Fiesta Salad today. However, it was missing the black beans and the cilantro. They did make it right. Great customer service and we will continue to recommend this place, of course those breakfast burritos are soooo good!!
Pretty good breakfast burritos
Best breakfast burritos in town. Use the app and skip the line. You can split one burrito with two people. If you finish one yourself youll be food comad to 2 pm.
Ham breakfast burrito and chocolate chip bread are amazing (AND HUGE). All of the sauces are great. Owner is super nice and welcoming.
Thai chicken salad 🥗 was delicious but not worth $17. Somehow I cant get to the reply from the owner. Yes. It is originally 14.95. you add avocado and its $17 they turn the little register around and ask for a 15% tip then it becomes $18.10.. still not what I would like to pay for a salad.. its... A SALAD.. Changing to 3 stars
Order over the phone prior to getting there and park in the back.
Good vegetarian sandwich, great service, friendly staff. Am definitely returning for more. Thanks a lot, Cafe Rosalena Team!
Best breakfast burrito in California!
Friendly staff.great breakfast burritos.order ahead of time.had to wait a little longer then usual they had a constant pick up orders that probably didnt help.they threw in a piece of there chocolate chip bread,presumably cause of wait.but it was all well worth it
Best breakfast burritos in san jose. Always get chorizo burrito with extra cheese and the orange sauce
Friendly people, bomb breakfast burritos
Love the breakfast burritos, they always fill me up and taste amazing.
Worst experience ever. First they gave my husband a hard time when picking up my order because I was not there with him (Im pregnant and didnt want to get out of the car). 2nd, they charged him an extra $1.50 to slice a burrito in half. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?!?! 3rd, he sat patiently waiting and as they let 2-3 other people who showed up after him cut to order and yet still gave him a hard tome. I will not be coming back and i will ensure that no one is recommended to this cafe. You left a terrible taste in my mouth, my mind, and my heart. Terrible customer service 😡
Was not as good as I thought it would be. Gave me bad gas and heart burn. The blond lady working didnt have a mask on and her daughter was running around the restaurant with no mask on aswell. Her husband seemed like a you know what. Idk if they are the owners or what. But if not. The owner needs to put her in her place. Advice the blond employee of her husband giving customers dirty looks.
Their breakfast burritos are amazing. You get a huge burrito for a very fair price.
Amazing breakfast burritos, orange sauce and more!
Best breakfast burritos

Outstanding OJ !! The staff is very friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend this must try breakfast place.
We loved there burritos until we ordered one and it had hair in it.
Their breakfast burritos are so good! Hefty portions!
Best breakfast burritos in San Jose
Went there for the first time and I think I like it much better than crema, which I usually go go to. The decor was much nicer, the outdoor seating a lot more comfy and I had an awesome quiche.
Excellent food and service. Lexi was courteous, professional and expressed the menu to me in such a way that I came in for lunch. Ive had the breakfast burrito and the BLTTA and Im coming back for more. Thank you for the quality you put into the meals.
Love the burritos & orange juice & the salsas
Their breakfast burritos are amazing - Ive had many breakfast burritos throughout California and these are the best Ive had. Its all about the potatoes - they are very fresh. Ive also had their chicken alameda which is great as well. Prices are great, $8 - $10 for most items. Staff is friendly and its a nice cafe! Definitely recommended.
I have only been there one time, but the workers all seemed to have a positive attitude and are extremely helpful when you order
