    two plates of food on a table
    Melody D.

    It is a different Mexican Restaurant now called El Meson. Great food! Loved the tortillas! Homemade for sure! Rams and rice are fantastic! Tostada was amazing! All I needed was a Margarita!

    12.50 quesadilla rellena
    VI P.

    I use to like this place but it has severely gone down hill. After a few months hiatus after the last debacle where our food was ice cold and they forced me to return there in the middle of an ice storm, I finally decided to return thinking that perhaps that was just an off night. I decided to order the quesadilla to go and let me tell you I'm not impressed. The size of the quesadilla for 12.50 is ridiculous. Additionally, they didn't include neither the sour cream, lettuce, tomato, nor the rice! I will not be returning to this establishment anymore.

    My mexican tastes have usually only gone as far as Taco Bell and my homemade tacos, so I was leery to try authentic.

    This neighborhood market, grocery store, resto and family owners have been around Defiance for a…read morelong time. My first encounter with this local gem was over twenty years ago on my first visit to this Ohio town, and it's still around with improvements, enhancements and is still great overall! A terrific family run business. From its jam-packed with a wide array of dry and can goods on grocery shelves, great meats, extensive local baked goods, and a much renovated and expanded restaurant and really nice Mexican-style bar! If you're in town and are in the mood for an ice-cold Dox Equis and/or Jalisco style Mexican cuisine, this the place for you! Their goodies run the gamut from an incredible Pozole to Grilled Chicken delights, to delectable Burritos to mouthwatering tacos, some terrific, refried beans and incredible chips and salsa! I think they are one of the top five Mexican food joints in the Defiance area. Oh, and do your groceries while you're at it. Buen provecho ya'll.

    Stopped in recently and honestly it was just okay. The food was pretty mediocre and the service was…read morereally slow, even though the place wasn't that busy. What really bothered me was the surprise 3.5% surcharge they add if you pay with a card. That includes debit cards too. I didn't see any signs about it and wasn't told until the check came. At that point, I didn't have cash, so I had no choice. For anyone wondering, surcharges on debit cards aren't allowed under Visa and Mastercard rules. I get that places are trying to cover costs, but it should be clear up front and within the rules. I wouldn't have stayed if I knew about the extra fee--or I would've stopped at my bank across the street to grab some cash. Just a heads-up for anyone thinking of stopping by: bring cash.

We started with margaritas of various flavors, and those came out super quickly, and everyone's drink was correct. The food also came out quickly.

Our server was very helpful. We saw a few people celebrating their birthdays, and the staff helped with the celebration. Seemed like a good place to have a birthday!

Corn chips and salsa were brought to us as soon as we were seated. The salsa was great! It had a little bite to it, not just the usual mild salsa. When you order, keep in mind the portions are large. I ordered the Chili Poblano's and two Tamales. The Poblano's came with rice and refried beans. The Poblano's also had seasoned ground beef on them. The flavors were great, probably now my favorite restaurant Poblano's . I had to bring the tamales home, they are huge! They tasted great the next day, they were covered, with chili beans, mole sauce and cheese. They tasted great! My wife had the Enchiladas Tapatias which she said was delicious! We will be going back to eat there again!

As per usual at most Mexican spots in the US, a dish of hot chips and fresh salsa arrived for us to much on. We also ordered one of our favorite go-to appetizers, a white cheese dip with jalapenos. It was exactly as we'd expected. For main dishes, my wife ordered the Seafood Mexicano Special served with fish and shrimp in a cheesy sauce along with Mexican rice. I ordered the Defiance Special consisting of a tamale, a couple of chicken flautas, chicken and ground beef nachos (topped with lettuce, tomatoes, guacamole, sour cream) along with sides of rice and beans. It was a lot of food and it came out hot, fresh and fast. We filled our bellies and were off on our way to West Lafayette, IN.
