My first time visiting this place, as I am from out of town and it was recommended on Find Me Gluten Free as basically “if Chipotle wasn’t owned by private equity”.

This description was spot on, and if you like Chipotle, you will like Mesa Grande.

What stood out to me though, was the order printed strangely on the ticket/receipt, and even I thought it had missed some extras I had paid for on some tacos when I glanced at it. When I opened the bag, the employees had missed them too, but when I pointed it out to them, they immediately re-made the tacos entirely, loaded them down with said extras, and gave me a free flan for my trouble. I would have been perfectly happy with a container of extras I could have applied to my own tacos, but this was a surprise.

Food is good, atmosphere is good, but service is excellent.

Food was extremely underwhelming. Basically a knock off chipotle with far less seasoning. Save your money go elsewhere.

The food was ok. The service was good. But please display your prices somewhere, anywhere. Knowing what's available does not help me at all unless I know how much I would pay for each item. I had to ask the staff and they had to pull up the information on the register. The only reason I didn't walk out was because I had a gift card to spend.

EDIT: there was a screen above the register (on the opposite side of where the ordering starts) that rotates through prices, but every time I looked at it, it was showing prices for desserts, drinks, or other items that were not the main entrees. Not helping.

The barbacoa and queso are always so good! And the flan! The crunchwrap blew my mind 😋. Great portion sizes for the prices, in my opinion.
The chicken could use a little more flavor and be a little less wet and the pinto beans are strange otherwise I'd give 5 stars 🌟.

Food was pretty decent, not 5 star worthy but not bad, it seems to lack flavor imo.

I dined here during the lunch hour which was busy. The staff was able to dispatch the lunch crowd in a fast and efficient manner. The food was fresh and delicious and the customer service was excellent.

Service was excellent. We had a large group and they got us through so efficiently. We had a few local regulars show up after and told us it was worth the wait to eat there. Always a plus to hear.
