My family has been eating lunch every Sunday at El Meson for the past 11 years. Maybe more. The food is absolutely fantastic and almost all Mexican friends of ours say it is very authentic and real Mexican food. The service is fantastic and we pretty much know everyone? 5 stars all around. YOU HAVE TO EAT HERE???

Our family loves it here!! Best salsa, best food, best service!! Be careful as not all locations serve the same things. We tried the location on county line by the mall and it was not good. We love the staff here, Daniela is so sweet and remembers my order every time we come! This location has the best salsa I have ever had in my life!!
