The food here is delicious! This is the only place in Poteet that I will buy breakfast tacos from. Don Juan is closer to me but their service is slow and rude and their tacos are bad. La Mesa prepares orders quickly. Their tacos have an even distribution of ingredients, unlike Don Juan. If you want yummy breakfast tacos, this is the place to go!! read more

This place was... AWESOME! I absolutely loved loved loved the chips and salsa - I wish I was still there shoveling them into my face. I had the house burrito off the menu and it was delicious. Smothered in enchilada sauce - which I often don't care for - but this was delightful! I can't wait to get back to Poteet to eat here again. Great, friendly service as well. Bring your friends and give it a try - you won't be disappointed. read more

Went this weekend and decided on the drive thru. I was honestly disappointed. Not only was the wait very long but the drive thru window allowed us to see that they were preparing food without gloves or hairnets. I ordered 2 carne asada tacos and the meat wasn't flavored right. The meat was not asada meat but a substitute that was more like Philly cheesesteak meat with out the cheese, I also ordered a bean and cheese with bacon and the over use of cheese was too much. Needless to say I won't be coming back. I hope everyone has a better experience.$32 plus dollars for 4 tacos seems alittle overpriced?? read more

Great Breakfast Tacos and amazing hole in the wall location in South Texas. Indoor dining options are beautiful and staff was exceptionally kind. The painted terracotta look from the outside and the amazing drive through were only two highlights of the amazing journey through a restaurant, no, dare I say an experience. Everyone should visit! read more

La Mesa - Breakfast menu - Mexican Near Me - Poteet, Texas

See all

Let's just say the food is substandard and over priced. I would go with friends and was never impressed, but when the waitstaff and owners basically ignored me while I was sitting at the table with friends (people they knew) I was done. They never acknowledged me or even thanked me for coming to their business, I never went back. That time we all ordered the same thing and the owner's daughter surveyed the plates and gave me the worst looking one. No more business from me. I won't support a small business such as this. If I could have given zero stars, I would have. read more

Before COVID, this place had the best Tex-Mex style food for miles but it has changed. The prices were up, the food was awful and the service was awkward. read more

What a great place to eat. The staff is super friendly and the food is very good. It has more the feel of eating at their home than just a business. This is a must eat in Poteet!! read more

La Mesa - Family time! - Mexican Near Me - Poteet, Texas

We are regulars here and love the food. I usually order breakfast - bacon is crispy. The menudo is really good, the right kind of spicy, and the meat is cut in smaller pieces with lots of hominy. Staff is always great. read more

Stopped by this place the other day for lunch. The "MAGA" cards by the door were a bit of a turn off but you really have slim pickings in Poteet. The Mexican food was white washed and some of the other menu items like the chicken fried chicken sandwich lack flavor. It is also overpriced for what you get. read more

Second time this week to come here , locally owned and we are always treated like family I read a comment that she waited 10 mins for service , don't believe it person was probably in a hurry and two mins seemed like 10. Foods great as always, fresh and tasty. read more

My daughter ordered a taco yesterday morning. Tortilla was hard. I'm guessing they were old tortillas. They forgot to give her lemonade that she paid for. read more

The crispy tacos and chalupas are very good!! The shells are home made to order and are the perfect texture and crispness. Best crispy tacos I have had around this area!!! read more

Made a quick lunch stop while in Poteet. I ordered the small picadillo nachos and they were good and the perfect portion. The people at my table ordered the patty melt and enchiladas verde, and everyone talked about how their food had that homemade taste. The prices were reasonable, and they also offer daily specials. The food took a little bit of time to come out, but it was no major issue. The servers were friendly and helpful. If you're ever driving through Poteet, this is a good place to stop for food. read more

Great food and friendly staff. Daily specials are very good. Hope they stay in business for many more years to come.

Waited 10 minutes and nobody came to wait on us. When asked if anyone was going to wait on us they just looked at us. Got up and left, will not be returning. If I could I've give them zero stars. read more
