Great food!! Everything was fresh and hot. Our server was super nice as well. Chicken fajitas and beef tacos hit the spot! Can’t wait to dine again.
I just had a Baja salad, and had to come and find Red Mesa's page just to let yall know that was the best salad of my life!
Great food and great smiling server even though they were short staffed and busy during the rain storm. Thank u Jackie and I hope the rest of your day goes well. 😁

Red Mesa Grill is a casual dining spot that offers authentic Mexican cuisine, attracting both locals and tourists. The restaurant features a pleasant outdoor patio, making it a great choice for those dining with pets, although wait times can be an issue for patio seating. The menu is extensive yet manageable, offering a variety of options without feeling overwhelming.
Highlights include the pork tacos with fresh pineapple salsa and the savory birria special, which comes with all the fixings. However, some dishes, like the Carne Asada Burrito, may not meet expectations, as they can be more wrap-like than traditional. The restaurant has a happy hour from 3 to 5 PM on weekdays, offering affordable drinks and appetizers, although there are no complimentary chips and salsa, which surprised some diners.
While many reviewers praised the friendly and attentive staff, some noted cleanliness issues, including food on walls and shakers. The decor is described as cute, featuring an indoor fireplace, although the temperature may feel cool due to the air conditioning. Overall, Red Mesa Grill is recommended for its generous portions and authentic flavors, making it a worthwhile stop for Mexican food enthusiasts.
