My boyfriend and I come here very often. The food is always on par with what we want. The portions are great and the staff is always very friendly, especially Miguel! Out of all the mexican restaurants here, El Meson is our favorite go to.

My dog loved the food here. He ate all of the churros (he’s a bit sicky in the belly now, but who doesn’t get a tummy ache every now and then? :P)
Maribel was wonderful. She gave me water. I had a good time today.
Mickey, signing off!
