Service was great with Brandee. Noise level was moderate. Wasn’t expecting a lot of heat from my enchilada dish but it was tasty and glad to have my beverage! We would return again.

This was our second time dining here. My husband ordered the steak tacos and beef empanadas which he enjoyed. I ordered birria tacos and a side of rice and beans. The rice and beans were good, but they brought it out 10 min BEFORE my meal. The birria tacos were OK, but much better the time before we dined. (Tacos were barely warm so that may be the reason they were just "ok". )Service was good. And so was the ambiance.

Really like going here! A bit too noisy and maybe a bit expensive, but overall great to have this restaurant in our area to enjoy!! Love the Mexican Street Corn!! Would like to see more seafood dishes and burritos offered.

Our recent dining experience at La Mesa was incredible. Our server Mike was very good, attentive, and knew the menu very well. I had the spicy cucumber margarita that was delicious and the chicken mole enchiladas which were also delicious. The mole was better than most places and tasted very authentic. I also love the music and vibes of this restaurant. Can’t wait to go back and also try their happy hour!

Still early, but it will be a success. Very fast service and large portions. Feels a little rushed.
