The service was great, from the girl at entrance to the waitress and bus boys! The food is always delicious!! The environment is great but it's too loud and we had to yell all of the time or just keep it quiet. I love Mesita abut I'm disappointed to the high noise this time.
I've dined here several times and the food is always delicious. Last night I ordered the Lobster Enchiladas which were on another level! They were filled with lots of lobster as well as spinach and a lobster sauce. I honestly want to go back this week and get it again!
Our first visit and first impression was very good. Very lively and nice looking restaurant. Our server came right over to introdunce himself and take our drink order. We enjoyed our meals except for one glitch. They brought our entres out while we were still having our appetizers and the runner just stood there like, were we supposed to hold the plates in our hands? Sent them back until we were ready. Nice to see the kitchen is quick but poor coordination. Overall very good but also a bit pricey but then, what isn't these days.
This was my first time at Mesita, I was impressed with my waiter Juan, he was friendly, attentive and personable. The manager came over and greeted us, he was very nice. The food was flavorful and the guacamole and salsa were excellent. The drinks were delicious. I am definitely returning to this location.
Ambiance was nice and esthetically pleasing. The menu had different options that you don't find in your typical Mexican restaurant which was refreshing. The only caveat was that the waitress never came by to see if we needed another drink and at one point we had to ask someone where she went.
The wings were nasty we had to send them back , our server Jennifer had no spunk she appeared tired and our bus boy Jeffery was amazing very nice guy!! Maybe it was a bad night or just bad timing I'll come back just once more to see if anything is different
Food was mediocre. It came out about 5min after we ordered on plates that were so hot they needed to be delivered by a man using a vice to hold them, which tells me the food was either microwaved or just prepared well in advance and sitting under some warming lights. The rice tasted stale and like it had been cooked in dishwater. The $18 margaritas were gross. The frozen tasted like it was full of sugar and clearly made from a mix. The spicy one tasted more like cinnamon than jalapeño because they think they're clever and light it on fire and sprinkle cinnamon for sparks. It was terrible. Overall, a disappointing meal.
Was not happy with the original seating? And they switched us with no problem. Food was delicious Service was perfect.
This place was really nice. The food was really good as well. That guacamole was so fresh! I'll def be back
We were greeted with a smile, the staff was friendly. We never needed to look for our waitress, she was always asking us if we needed anything. The watermelon margaritas were yummy, the food was delicious. Mesita is the perfect place to meet up with friends sit back relax, enjoy good food and drinks. 😊
