"Possibly Michigan’s only Colombian restaurant, Rosita’s Treats in Shelby Township specializes in Colombian-style empanadas. The cornmeal hand pies are stuffed with both traditional and creative savory or sweet fillings like pulled pork, guava and cheese, chocolate and peanut butter, Korean beef barbecue, and even kimchi. For a more rounded out meal, try the oxtail cooked low and slow or the patacones con carne — plantains smashed flat and fried and topped with shredded beef and melted mozzarella." - Serena Maria Daniels

Tried Columbian food tonight for the first time, and it was really delicious. The owner, Patrick, was wonderful. Very friendly, knowledgeable, had great stories to tell, and made us feel like we were sitting down for dinner in his home. We are looking forward to our next visit and trying new things.

Great experience and food! I recently moved to Michigan from Houston, TX and thought I wouldn’t see another Colombian restaurant for a while. Excited to have found this restaurant. If you do come on the weekend with a party of 4 plus, I highly recommend making a reservation. We got lucky that a table had just became available and were seated very quickly. Great food and service! Thank you Rosita’s!

This place was absolutely amazing! We came across this place one day by accident and we gave them a shot! If you like Columbian food or ever wanted to try it I highly recommend it! We tried the Empanada sampler and one of the soups and it was fantastic! The owner is super nice, very attentive, and was easy to talk to. Make a visit here, you won’t be disappointed!

Came in randomly on a busy Sunday since we were in the area and decided to try it out mainly because my wife has to eat gluten free and this place was suggested for the area. Boy am I glad we visited! Everything on the menu is gluten free naturally and everything we tasted was fantastic. The place is small, and very cute - tucked away in a little plaza, almost like its a secret. We saw it was very busy but were able to sit along the window in a couple bar stools - all of the tables were taken by groups and family's this day. We were greeted fairly quickly despite how busy it was, and learned immediately that the owners were both working that day and they have a great sense of humor. We mentioned that they should expand and were met with a quick, "No, we like it this way", and I can't help but respect that. Most customers we could hear were speaking Spanish, so I knew the food was going to be good at the very least. My wife and I have worked in restaurants in the past, so we were very impressed in the good humor and smiles from staff while they tried and succeeded to keep everyone happy in a very busy room. When we were first approached, we were asked if it was our first visit (it was) and if we had questions. We said we thought we would get an empanada sampler to keep it simple since they were so busy, but were told that a large group ate up all but 2 types of empanada before we got there. He asked us a couple questions and then came up with a good variety for my wife and I to share. We had empanadas, fritters, fried plantains, and chorizo fried-rice, as well as fresh juice to drink. Everything was delicious, but the cilantro/onion salsa cup that came with the piping hot empanadas/fritters was so flavorful that I am still thinking about it a day later. The plantain was topped with shredded beef and cheese and I wanted to lick the plate when it was gone. We were a little constrained by time so we had to take the chorizo fried rice to-go, but it smelled so good that I had my wife shovel some in my mouth while I was driving. The chorizo, just like everything else, is made in house and is fantastic. Big slices of chorizo in the rice - chef's kisses all around. I wish we lived a bit closer, but we will 100% be making sure to stop by whenever we are in the area, and will definitely be heading back before long regardless if our travels take us nearby. Our special thanks to the the owners who were as cool as cucumbers and all smiles while helping to serve their guests. They are obviously pros and know how to do it right in my opinion. The attention they were able to give us while still handling the other guests was top-tier and very appreciated. We hope there was no offence to us having to leave and take the rice to go - know it didn't last long and we can't wait to come back and try more. So many dishes looked amazing and we will try it all eventually. Was it a little pricey? For the quality of food, I think not. You can tell when a place isn't cutting corners with sub-par ingredient's or pre-prepared components to save a few bucks. I doubt anything went from a freezer to a plate after just heating it up, and you could taste a little love in each bite. This is a new favorite for me and I only wish I discovered it sooner.

If I could give this place 10 stars, I would. A couple of my friends, including one from Colombia, came here on a Saturday afternoon. Everything we ate was absolutely incredible. The staff was extremely helpful and nice. My Colombian friend said it was the best Colombian food she had ever had in Michigan!! Our other friend is gluten free, and the entire menu is gluten free! So this place is great for gluten free eaters! Food was incredible, and I would drive 40 min again!

Rositas food is AMAZING! Very reasonable prices, large portions, delicious food, amazing friendly staff. I couldn’t ask for better. Also! The menu is not only gluten free but completely celiac friendly, because of that my boyfriend was able to order whatever he wanted with no worries. 10/10 I would definitely recommend to anyone!! Sorry my pictures aren’t great we immediately starting eating lol!

We pretty much ordered everything on the speciality menu. They were all very good. Highly recommend the chicken and the octopus. We also got the empanada sampler and each one was absolutely delicious. You can’t go wrong here

Our first experience with Colombian food and it went better than expected. It's a marvelous tiny bistro in a Sterling Heights strip mall, but you'd swear you're in the man's home. His name is Patrick and he has some terrific stories. Sat down with us and answered questions, like a true host. Highly recommended for the gluten free crowd, they have some astounding vegan dishes on their menu. I swear by the Plato de pulpo a la brasa. It's an octopus platter served with small potatoes and veggies and it is the bomb! Great customer service, Wi-Fi and live music. Prices are reasonable but the experience memorable! 06/24 Serves vegan dishes · Has live music · Has

After having Mexican and Argentinian empanadas and Honduran Pastelitos, we were looking around for other kinds of stuffed meat pies to try and came across Rosita's Treats. We decided to go on a Saturday afternoon and arrived a bit past 1PM. This small restaurant, with only around 20 seats, was completely full at that point. Thankfully, one party was just finishing up as we arrived so there wasn't much of a wait for us. I guess the reviews saying to make reservations are right, especially if you want to visit during the lunch or dinner rush. Lunch Special ($10) - This comes with rice, pulled pork, red beans, and yellow plantains. The rice was cooked perfectly with a nice fluffiness. They add a bit of oil and salt to enhance the flavor, but it's not overly done. The pulled pork is dried out and mixed with peppers and herbs, with an overall texture almost like a Sonoran-style carne seca. It's well spiced with a fantastic flavor profile and the texture is on point. While the meat seems to be dried out, it's shredded finely and is actually quite moist in mouthfeel. It's not stringy at all and doesn't get caught in your teeth. The red beans are served in a nice thick, savory and slightly sweet soup flavored with onions and spices. The beans are cooked until tender and are delicious by themselves. Finally, the plantains here are cooked perfectly. They have a slight crisp on the exterior and the inside is toothsome, but perfectly tender with a a slight plantain sweetness. They aren't oily at all, nor are they soggy. (5/5) Empanada & Yucca Fritter Variety Pack ($25) - We started selecting empanada varieties before we were told that the variety pack was chef's choice! I'm not usually a gambling man, but I did want variety, so I went ahead with the order. The empanadas turned out to be 1x shredded beef, 1x ground beef, 1x pizza and 1x chicken and mushroom. Both carimañolas were ground beef. Starting with the empanadas - the exterior is a very nice fried yellow corn meal based dough. Perfectly fried with a fantastic exterior crisp. The shredded beef, as with the shredded pork in the lunch special, is very similar to a carne seca. Again, perfectly spiced and delicious, with diced bell peppers and potatoes (5/5). The ground beef has a nice herbal, bay-leaf quality to it and is mixed with potatoes, giving additional tenderness (5/5). The chicken and mushroom is moist, mixed with gooey cheese, with only a slight mushroom aroma. On visual inspection there were a lot of mushrooms added but the flavor is mild and not overpowering (5/5). The pizza is kind of generic tomato sauce, pepperoni, and cheese and reminded me of the taste of a Totino's pizza roll. The cheese is previously melted, but after cooling down before serving, it reforms so it's not stretchy or gooey (3/5). The carimañolas are pretty interesting. The exterior has a very thin layer of light crunch. The entire yucca layer is much thicker than the empanadas, so there's more yucca and less filling. The interior yucca is almost mushy and slimy, reminding me a bit of nagaimo or Chinese yam. There's a bit of a bitterness in the yucca and overall the fritter retains noticeably more oil than the empanadas. The filling is the same as the ground beef in the empanadas. Maybe if the yucca layer were thinner, I would like them more? It was still good to try. (3/5) The variety pack comes with aji and salsa rosada as condiments on the side. The aji tastes pretty fresh and herbal, isn't overly oily, and isn't spicy at all. It adds a great bright, vegetal note to the food. The salsa rosada has a mayo/ketchup base and packs a smoky and spicy punch from chili peppers blended in. It's pretty heavy and can easily overwhelm the flavors of the empanadas and carimañolas if applied too heavily. Bathrooms - One unisex room in the back. I would definitely return to try more of the food next time I'm in the area. During our meal, there were many take out orders, and the kitchen ran out of some empanada flavors. If you are particularly set on trying a certain filling, be sure to call to ask for the daily flavors and get there early!

I had heard good things about Rosita's Treats and decided to stop and get carryout. And I wish I had gone before. It is always nice to find restaurants where I don't have to think about what is gluten free and what is not gluten free. The entire restaurant's menu is gluten free which means that I will have so many options to try. I asked for advice on what to get as a to go order and the empanadas were recommended. Per the person who helped me recommended the empanadas that are classic; aka ground beef, grilled chicken, shredded beef and pork.All of them were amazing and I could not pick one that I didn't love. The restaurant is located just south of 22 Mile on the left hand side if going south. The atmosphere of the restaurant is nice and inviting. It is not very big so if you come with a big group, you will take over the entire restaurant. There is an area set aside for music. I will definitely have to go back to try the empanadas again and maybe something else from off the menu. Everything was so nice and relaxing in the restaurant even with a large party there before I got there.

What a treat this restaurant is! We came here to celebrate friend's birthday and had an amazing time- from great quality Colombian food to music (& yes, dancing)! The owners are welcoming and attentive. We tried variety of different dishes and all of them were delicious. In house made empanadas were worth a drive and grilled octopus was worth waiting for to get prepared. Steak my friends ordered was also excellent! If you have space to have a dessert - I really enjoyed their cheese cake! The restaurant is pretty small so it's probably a good idea to call and make the reservations. Rosita's singing Latin songs made our night!

Came here because they advertised their fried chicken as being the best and they were offering a special to prove it. Oddly enough it's not listed on their menu but they knew when we mentioned we were there for the fried chicken special. So do I think it was the best fried chicken? It wasn't the best I've ever had but it was delicious. Juicy, large, fresh boneless chicken -breast and or thigh, it was hard to tell, but their accompany dipping sauce was addictively good. The plus is that it's gluten-free. We also ordered some of their empanadas which appear to be a main menu item as they had a large variety to choose from -ground beef and potato, kimchi, bulgogi, pizza, ham and cheese, and many more. I didn't care for the shell as I'm used to a flour based shell on empanadas, but the cilantro dipping oil served with the ground beef & potato empanada was fantastic. Rosita's is a small, quaint restaurant with a handful of two-seat tables, window stool seating, and friendly staff. Service was great but we were early and it was not busy. However once it got busy with patrons dining in and large carryout orders coming in, their operational challenges with getting food out and tending to customers were very apparent. It also could have just been an unusually busy night. We'll find out next time we come back.

We stopped again for dinner, and discovered that Wednesday is fried chicken night! $5 for all you can eat gluten free fried chicken thighs. They were tender and delicious! We also got some plantain tostadas, that are always scrumptious. Apparently Fridays are fried fish with the same batter, catfish or tilapia. We'll definitely give that a try.

Tried Columbian food tonight for the first time, and it was really delicious. The owner, Patrick, was wonderful. Very friendly, knowledgeable, had great stories to tell, and made us feel like we were sitting down for dinner in his home. We are looking forward to our next visit and trying new things.

All gluten free Colombian Restaurant (hubby is Gluten sensitive, I am not.) The owner greeted us and talked us through the menu, he was SO friendly. I had the chicken stew and the Aprepa Queso. Phenomenal. I WILL be back.

This was our first time having Colombian food and we really enjoyed it. I ordered the stewed chicken which had really great flavor. I was a little disappointed because there was only two small chicken chunks in the stewed chicken. It was also luke warm when we got it home and the rest of the food was hot, so I am not sure if that had been sitting for a bit. We also got a chicken and beef empanada and enjoyed them with the sauces. Husband also got a cheese arepa and beef carimanola he said they were both delicious. We both really enjoyed our meals and said we want to go back and try other menu items.

What a hidden gem of a spot. Literally couldn't find it. The imaps locates the business in the middle of the plaza when in fact it's on the exterior side of the plaza near a separate entrance. Once found, we were welcomed with live music, a lively and warm atmosphere. I felt like I was back home in FL in a room full of Latin people from different countries. Where everyone is friendly and cheerful. The restaurant is small but perfect for a late evening dinner. On Fridays they are open till 11pm. The food was DELICIOUS!!! I have a gluten allergy and was told every thing was gluten free. I didn't have any issues with any of the food. My top favorite was their cheese empanadas! Mmmm....I regret not ordering some to go. They were super super good! The arepas was also good, very very full of cheese. We also had the meat platter which was perfect for two people. The only thing that was missing was a bottle of wine and a little dimmer lights to complete the night. If you are looking for authentic Latin food, I highly recommend this spot!

Nicole L.

Yelp
Beyond impressed! We walked in 30 minutes to close tonight knowing we came a little late and figured we would have to get a carry out, the owner was so welcoming! He told us to sit down and enjoy. We ordered the fried snapper, which I would highly recommend! We also each got a juice and two empanadas. This place is amazing, my new favorite! Thank you!!

Such a small place! Other than seating against the windows, there are only two tables inside. Now I see why their website recommends reservations. Really nicely decorated. Made me wish I was wearing better clothes. The food was fantastic. And I would go back just to try the drinks. There was a tomate de arbol, which I've never tried before. And a lulo drink, which I've never heard of either. Truly excellent and my entire family enjoyed them. We got an empanada sampler, and appreciated every single one. I have to say the bulgogi was my favorite, bringing some real heat, even though it's a fusion item. But who needs authenticity when you have such an amazing taste combination! We also absolutely loved the fries, which came with a variety of meat and fresh toppings, The only complaint I could make is that the arepa seemed too salty. I will still try it again, though. Better safe than sorry.

I would recommend a reservation but the food was well worth the wait. Very welcoming vibe and a must visit. If you are Gluten Free everything is safe!!

Finally decided to try one of the only Colombian restaurants in Michigan. Wednesdays All you can eat gluten free and halal chicken was delicious without the guilt, portions are large. Lulu juice is a must and don't forget to try the empanadas. Service was great, Looking forward to coming here again soon.

I've been wanting to try the food for a while and finally decided to order an assortment of empanadas. I got shredded beef, bulgogi, pulled pork, and guava and cheese. I loved them all, but the guava and cheese was by far my favorite. I got carry out but hoping to dine in next time and get some recommendations from the wait staff!

So happy to find a delicious, authentic Latin American restaurant in Macomb county. This area is such a wasteland of national chains that it's great to have a little something different. Stopped in for lunch on a Saturday. Finding Rositas is a bit of a challenge as it's tucked in the back side of a strip mall on van dyke and 22 mile. The fact that the owner...Rick I think?...came around to check on all his guests was a nice touch. Makes me want to continue to support a business like this. The food hit the spot. We ordered a variety of empanadas, a salchipapas and arepas. The star of the show was the bulgogi empanada and the arroz de coco...both were fantastic. We also got the peanut butter and chocolate empanada and a pulled pork empanada to go. Can't wait to try them.

I was very excited to try this place and their empanadas. Not all empanadas were available so I ordered the ground beef and potato and the chorizo. Hubby got the chicken platter. No mention of any lunch specials. Walk in came after us as well as another eat-in group of 3. My empanadas came out, a little different then what I was hoping for but they were hot. I cracked them open waiting for my hubby's order. They asked how I like them and I said I was waiting. They said that chicken takes longer. Not sure why they didn't time the empanadas with the chicken then, it was my mega not an appetizer. Finally I could wait no longer and I broke into mine. I was confused about the inside of one of them and they said it was chicken . I told them I ordered chorizo and he went back to the kitchen. He came back out and said there was a mix up but that the chicken are good too and walked away. Ummm I didn't order chicken, at least offer to get me the correct one. Hubby's chicken platter comes out with everyone else's order that came after us. He asked for a box because by then we've been there for an hour and it was hot. We got home and I cut it up to put in a tortilla and some of the chicken wasn't cooked all the way. The rice was tasty. The empanadas were just ok, they were very greasy like the oil wasn't hot enough. Also the chicken empanadas were very wet inside so the breading of the empanada was mushy on the inside. I hate to give this review but it's honest. I doubt we will be back unfortunately.

As someone who has Celiac disease, it is so tricky going out to out. Sure, lots of places have "gluten-friendly" options, or some will even be bold enough to say "gluten-free" options, but they'll look you in the eyes and say there are shared surfaces and fryers for GF and gluten-containing items. I have had so many issues lately with careless cross-contamination, and it is exhausting. I kept seeing rave reviews for this restaurant on local gluten-free Facebook groups and on the Find Me Gluten Free app for the past couple of years, but I was hesitant to try it just because I had never tried Columbian food before. However, curiosity finally got the best of me, so my boyfriend and I headed out to give Rosita's Treats a shot just before the new year. I was impressed immediately and wanted to return ASAP! So far, we've shared the fish and chips during both visits (a dish that is to die for), a variety of empanadas each time (also shockingly good and just the right amount of crisp), and their fresh blackberry juice. The fact that we have already returned to Rosita's Treats within just two weeks speaks volumes about the quality and taste of their food. We rarely dine out this frequently, but this place has won us over. With each visit, we eagerly look forward to trying new dishes, and I already have my eyes set on their fried chicken for our next visit. Rosita's Treats, your dedication to providing delicious gluten-free options while maintaining a safe and clean environment is truly commendable. The positive experiences I've had here have made me confident in recommending this restaurant to anyone seeking a gluten-free haven. P.S. With the growing popularity and undeniable success, it seems like expanding your reach will be inevitable. We can't wait to see what the future holds for Rosita's Treats!

I went to Rositas Treats for lunch today. I had the most amazing server as well as a meal that was one of the best meals I have ever had. The food was authentic, flavorful, well seasoned, and high quality. I will be back as they had many items I wanted to try. You will not be disappointed!

We got the Ajiaco, an Arepa con queso and six empanadas. The soup was amazing. Everything was great, but the soup was another level amazing. We will definitely be coming back. There are a few things on the menu we want to try.

Loved the empanadas! The owner was friendly, informative and fun. The place was cozy and cute. I will be back soon for some more empanadas.

Service is so welcoming and warm. They took the time to explain the offerings down to the drinks to us newcomers to Colombian food. The entire menu is gluten free including fried foods like the fish and chips, and everything is plentiful and delicious. Extremely flavorful and a great variety of offerings. It's a smaller place and on the more casual side but don't let that deter you, it's one of the best meals I've had in a very long time. The food is easily worth triple the price, you get an insane value. It's been a long time since I've had such excellent hospitality in Michigan.

Carol C.

The service was great, the food was delicious, very authentic and very generous. The server gave us awesome suggestions. My only negative was it was very small and not very private or cozy.

This place does not leave you unsatisfied. Great food. The owner of the place makes sure you are treated well. The place feels like you are in a sweet cozy spot. Make sure to check it out on Saturday, love music but best to get a reservation.

Amazing night out, new favorite hidden gem! The food is so delicious! We had a variety of empanadas, all sooo good, chicken, arepas, and much more! It's very cozy and the karaoke after 9pm was so much fun!!! We will definitely be back and inviting our friends!

I have been waiting many years for a Colombian restaurant in metro Detroit area, & here it is! I had Arepa con Queso(delicious) and the empanada filled with crab(delicious). The location is hidden from the road, the inside is very clean and colorful. I feel like this is going to be a cute cafe to take a girlfriend/boyfriend to for breakfast lunch and dinner. The staff was very helpful in helping me pick out food. And it seems like they have live music entertainment on select days. I plan to return and try more of the food. If you never tried Colombian food, I highly recommend the Arepa con Queso.

They are always intermittently closed. I traveled from Detroit today to come eat over an hour away for them to be closed, again during posted open hours. As a Colombian, I will not travel from Detroit again to try to eat here. They closed in August for vacation and also in July after July 4th. AND TODAY,CLOSED FOR MECHANICAÑ REASONS. But it's not updated on Google. So for the 3rd time, they're closed outside of posted normal hours. I'll go back to Colombia to eat instead, at least the food there is better priced and always available

I liked the food and ambiance . The restaurant is staffed by the owners and so they take pride on their food... service. The location is accesible and has good parking.. I hope they get to expand soon because at rush time it can get cramped.

Wow, we had the most delicious dinner tonight at Rosita's! A hidden culinary Gem in the Utica/Shelby area. Tried the oxtail soup to start, fresh, great flavors! Also tried a sampling of the empanadas, made to order, hot, tasty and fresh. Try this place and spread the word!!

We decided to ride our bikes to find a lunch spot. We were excited to find a place that sells empanadas. It is an adorable little place with some indoor and outdoor seating. The prices we reasonable and the food was great! I especially enjoyed the beef and potato empanada with the cilantro salsa. The plantain chips were a great surprise. We tried one of the Columbian sodas. It had an interesting taste that was good. Definitely a great place to stop!

Everything was delicious!! We tried six different empanadas there is many more to try . Friendly stuff clean environment .

Food was pretty good but I thought a little bit expensive for what you got. Looks like they are working on the Decour for atmosphere, which is good because it is sorely needed

We ordered takeout after a long day at work and the owner brought the food out to our car with a smile on his face. Super friendly and as soon as he handed us the food we could smell the flavor. Food was delicious! Can't wait to come back and dine in, we loved everything!

Delicious- so far I only tried the empanadas and they are delicious! My favorite are with meat, potatoes & cheese.

I usually don't review but I will because it's small, hidden and needs to be known so the place stays alive. Probably some of these best empanadas I have had. It had the right amount of crisp but delicate crunch. It didn't feel oily or greasy at all. The small amount on there gave the empanadas that buttery and umaminess that you love with fried foods. Don't miss out on this place.

Francesca O.

Yelp
Excellent! Colombian food at its finest and all authentic. We had empanadas, soup and red snapper. So tasty, so good. The owners are very helpful and friendly. Tastiest food with big selection of empanadas. There's entertainment on some evenings and carry out.

Super friendly Colombian food restaurant. Went for the first time a week ago with my wife and daughter and loved it.

This was the best food ever! Great people, service and food was amazing! You have to try the empanadas. I will be back for sure.
