The service is great! The employees there don't entirely follow back up with you, but they are super kind and will help when they can. I've always gotten the same thing every time and it's become such a comfort food (I'm Vietnamese).

She was very nice and helpful. We shared a piña con coco cocktail, which I really enjoyed. It had a spicy rim and was sweet, but not too sweet. We ordered the guacamole, which was made tableside. I ordered the enchiladas al comal, which looked really good. Unfortunately, I didn't love the chipotle sauce on the enchiladas and wished I had ordered a more traditional red or green sauce. But it was still good, and I can see why it's popular. I did enjoy the steak and vegetables inside the enchiladas. I was leaning toward a 4-star rating since I didn't love my enchiladas and wouldn't order them again. But Isabella's service was so excellent that it alone pushed my review to a 5.

The maximum occupancy is 49 people, but it felt roomier inside than that. The decor is okay and the place seemed clean overall. Service - Service was pretty good. Our server was very friendly, and service wasn't bad. The only blemish was she did not check in on refills very frequently. I managed to get one, but my wife did not. By the time she asked again, we had finished our meal and were ready to go. A pretty small blemish, and not a dealbreaker for us. Food - The food was outstanding. My wife got the fajitas and they looked great! She loved them. I got the alambres and they were fantastic. Add in the homemade tortillas (both flour and corn) and it's an easy five stars! Their rice, beans, and salsa were all good too. No complaints at all with the food. Overall, I'd definitely come back again. The food was great, the people were super friendly and welcoming, and we were able to get a table right away. It's very close to the freeway, so when coming from out of town it's an easy on/off too. Great spot!

The restaurant is small and not in the greatest location, but the food was absolutely delicious and the service was excellent. I can't wait to go back! The tortilla chips are a mix of corn and flour, which was a nice surprise. Literally everything we ordered was so good! I went with the build-your-own combo plate and chose a cheese enchilada, beef taco, and beef flautas. My entire plate was delicious, including the rice and beans. The homemade tortillas were so fresh and tasty. Everyone in our party of four enjoyed their food. We split the three-piece quesabirria tacos, and they were excellent. I chose the gravy cheese enchilada for my combo plate, but I also tried my partner's green chili chicken enchilada--both were great. You can choose between red, green, or gravy sauce for the enchiladas, and I definitely want to try the red next time. Don't be turned off by the unassuming storefront and corner location. This place is serving up some seriously delicious food, and it's absolutely worth the visit!

Then she went back to the back to talk to cooks some more, finally began to take our order then said she needed to take a call from her boss because they were having issues with printer. Had us wait more time, she went to the back again came back to register played with device to try to reset it all to then tell us they couldn't serve us. Complete waste of our time. Every time we have been here there has been so sort of issue. As a side note they rip customers off too- I like to add my own salsa so I always ask for it on the side and I've been charged for it even though I don't want extra just would normally come with food but I have seen cashier give customers dining in more salsa at counter after getting their food without charging them. It's like they just add random charges and sneak extra money out of customers getting food to go without even letting one know of the extra charges. So please be aware if you choose to take your chances here.

The pineapple salsa gave a pop of sweetness that countered the spicy chipotle sauce. Delicious! The freshly fried tortilla chips were paired with a fresh pico de gallo, salsa verde, and a smoky medium spiced salsa. The only disappointment was the AC was down while the temperature outside was peaking at 100 degrees! They did have some fans spread out throughout the dining area to relieve the heat. Overall, I'd highly recommend this place!

La Mesa is the forgotten child. When going to MT and PT it feels upscale and an experience, with excellent food to boot! But La Mesa's ambiance, food and asmosphete is just not hitting the same. I bet with some aesthetic adjustments and a shift to more upscale dining like their sister restaurants this has a lot of potential. Did I hear someone say live music acoustic guitar or flamingo shows may help? Overall: - improve the quality of food and adjust the ambiance and this maybe another winner

Ordered supper burritos from door dash twice and it was soooooo good! It was fresh, hot and delicious. I ordered our two burritos and it was ready in less than 5 minutes. That was an instant red flag. Got home and it was dry and there was no grilled cheese on the tortillas. That was the best part from when it was ordered from door dash. So I was surprised why it wasn't like that when it was from the same store location. Super burrito is a 10/10 for me (when fresh, hot and with grilled cheese on tortilla) I will still support in the future for sure.
