Marieta's offers the best authentic Mexican food in La Mesa, with amazing Mole and Tamarindo Margaritas. The staff is friendly and creates a family-like atmosphere. While the portions are generous and prices reasonable, the dining experience can be affected by occasional understaffing. Parking may be a challenge, but the overall experience is worth a visit.
The restaurant has a nostalgic, old-school vibe with a large menu featuring typical Mexican and combination plate options. The food is excellent, including the starter chips and salsa. Margaritas are large, not exceptional but still enjoyable. The staff is very friendly and efficient, providing a nice family dining experience.
The restaurant's appearance may be a bit dated, but the food is great. The meat is juicy, the chips are crunchy, and the enchilada sauce is really good. The service can be hit or miss, with some waiters being more attentive than others. The bathrooms could use some improvement.
Vegetarian options are available, such as cheese-filled dishes and fajita-style vegetables. The restaurant is also wheelchair accessible, with a side door that can accommodate wheelchairs.
