Fat Rosie‘s Taco & Tequila Bar, Mexican restaurant in Schaumburg, US
Fat Rosie's Taco & Tequila Bar is a Mexican restaurant in Schaumburg, Illinois, serving tacos, enchiladas, burritos, and other dishes from Mexican cooking. The food menu is paired with a long list of tequilas, available both in cocktails and as straight pours.
The restaurant was opened by a chef who traveled through Mexico and brought back a direct knowledge of regional cooking. Those travels shaped the dishes on the menu and the way tequila is chosen and served.
The name "Fat Rosie" sets the tone for the place: relaxed, generous, and a little playful. The tequila menu is treated as seriously as the food, with many varieties grouped by origin and style for guests to explore.
The restaurant is open daily for both lunch and dinner, so there are many windows to visit throughout the week. Groups or weekend visits may benefit from a reservation, as the place can fill up during busy hours.
The restaurant has its own margarita machine that prepares frozen margaritas in batches of roughly 1 gallon (about 4.5 liters) at a time. These large servings are meant for groups at the table and make for an unusual way to share cocktails.
