Rosepepper Cantina

"This eclectic Cantina puts a delicious spin on traditional Mexican. Three salsa varieties greet you at the table while thick, creamy queso blanco complete with house-made flour tortilla chips (super, duper thick yet light and crisp) tempt all to have way more than one. The margaritas are hard to beat anywhere in town and while pricier than your average glass or pitcher, they’re worth every penny. Rosepepper's food sits several notches above your average Mexican spot in quality, yet remains similar in price. And we’d sit on their covered patio all day if we could. Go do it and we’ll live vicariously through you." - Perky Bros

"The margaritas at this long-time East Nashville staple pack a punch. Since 2001, Rosepepper has a menu focused on Sonoran-style Mexican cuisine but has been a prime destination for those seeking boozy margaritas to wash down chips and some of the city’s favorite queso. Rosepepper has over 80 varieties of tequila, so the margarita options are seemingly endless (and available by the pitcher or by the glass)." - Bailee Mulder, Eater Staff

"Known for the cheeky slogans on its outdoor signage, Rosepepper Cantina is also popular for the punchy margarita pitchers and Sonoran-style Mexican cuisine it’s been serving up since 2001. At Ernie Chaires’s East Nashville restaurant with an outdoor patio, you can opt to have the tortillas for your taco grill-fried or soft and stuffed with carne asada, grilled chicken, shredded beef, or tempura-fried white fish." - Jackie Gutierrez-Jones, Eater Staff

"Enjoy icy margaritas on Eastland any time of year in Rosepepper Cantina’s enclosed patio thanks to multiple large gas-powered heaters. The colorful decor evoking a Sonoran cafe is made even brighter with string lights in the winter — the perfect ambient lighting for enjoying some of the cantina’s warm bowls of chile colorado and queso with chorizo." - Clara Wang, Jackie Gutierrez-Jones
