I would like to personally thank Mesquite Pit for taking me on an emotional journey I did NOT sign up for. Picture this: I'm craving prime rib like it's my last meal on earth. I do the responsible thing and CALL AHEAD like a civilized human being. "Do y'all have prime rib?" I ask. "Yes," they say--with confidence. With conviction. With what I can only assume was zero verification. So I drive my hungry, hopeful self all the way there, already tasting that juicy, perfect bite in my mind... only to be told: "Oops, no they told you wrong, we dont have prime rib " Oops? That's not a minor inconvenience. That's betrayal. That's psychological damage. That's me sitting there questioning my life choices while staring at a menu I no longer trust. No apology worth mentioning, no effort to make it right--just vibes and disappointment. If you're going to crush someone's dinner dreams, at least have the decency to do it over the phone so I can cry in my car at home instead of your parking lot. 10/10 for building anticipation. 0/10 for delivering anything resembling prime rib. Would I come back? Only if I'm emotionally stronger. read more

If you don't want to go to a high end steakhouse but still want a good steak. The Mesquite Pit is a perfect spot to try. Had the 3/4 inch ribeye and the burger. The steak is seasoned and cooked to perfection. The burger was a decent burger. Ended the meal with the bread pudding. I will say I'm generally not impressed with bread puddings because it everywhere. This is a good one. read more

We have loved this place for years. It is a far distance for us to drive, but we try and get there when we can. The food has always been good and consistent. The service is always great. It doesn't matter where you sit, and the place is big. It's an old country place. Lots of wood. Nothing fancy, but it's a great place to have some pretty good food. read more

The chicken fried bacon is super good. I wasn't expecting the fireplace to be on.... I loved it. The service was great as well.

The food was very fresh and authentic. The location was great and the ambiance was very comfortable. The service was spot on. read more

Stopped here while checking out weatherford. The staff here are very friendly and the food was plentiful. I wasn't a fan of a few things. 1 being the "food tax" at @$5.00. Not sure if that's a Texas thing or? 2. A credit card fee. %3. But still, kinda annoying. And 3 was just the bbq sauce but the food was still very good. We were shocked by the serving size of the 3 meat platter. The prices are great and. Overall We loved stopping in. Thank you to McKayla for the wonderful service . read more

The service was good but the food was horrible. We were served raw onion rings, gravy with plastic pieces in it and all of the meats served to my party were completely dry. When bringing it to the servers attention they said "its just how its made". The tables are cramped as well. Atleast the drinks were good. read more

Good service, nice place to just get a steak no frills. Cute decor feel. Ordered the 1 lb medium rare, good char, but came out rare so was a bit chewy. Banana pudding decent, I would've liked more flavor from the bananas. Was visiting out of state so this is a 1 time visit review. I would say it's great place for a steak without breaking the bank. But i probably would go other places just to compare. Pay at the cashiers at the front and there's a tip jar for them? Interesting. read more

a little slow getting service. Hard for every business to find good help these days. But the food is always really good

The baked potato under cooked and still hard. The grilled shrimp was good. The grilled chicken was pretty good. Their reward program looks like a scam. I was sent a $10 reward certificate, but when I tried to use it, the host said it had already been used. And the manager was useless and wouldn't even come up to the front to check on it. Why would I still have the certificate if I had used it. So...The food is OK but there is better for the price and stay away from the rewards app. read more

The OG Mesquite Pit is the only one I consider upper echelon. I've been going there for over 40 years and they've been able to maintain high quality ingredients & meals almost perfectly. In my 40yrs I sent back one steak, its replacement to this day was the best steak I've ever had there --- seriously. Everything has a few ups and downs but this location stays on top of their game almost endlessly !!!!! read more

If you're looking for that country cooking that makes you are sitting around your grandmothers kitchen table, this is it. The building itself could use some updating but the service and food make up for it. Our lunch was a large party and they easily accommodated us and were stellar at keeping up with all our wants and needs. The food was hot and tasty. We ordered for the table chicharrones and salsa and I loved it. Great switch from the usual tortilla chips. I ordered the chicken fried chicken. Perfectly cooked and crispy. Will definitely return the next time I'm in Weatherford. read more

great service, great meals, steaks are perfectly done to your needs, the environment is quiet for the number of guests always present, and the wait staff is very pleasant, even when they're obviously quite busy. Give 'em five stars all day long! read more

Solidly good food, generous portions and very good service. Great bar selections-I recommend the Margaritas.

Great food and service, husband ordered catfish and fries cowboy beans, I ordered catfish onion rings and cowboy beans

great good, servers are amazing and atmosphere is aesthetic is fun! love this place! will be a repeat customer for sure!

I enjoyed the rustic vibe and great service at Mesquite Pit, but the steak itself didn't match the hype. The salsa (house made, I think?) and chips were an excellent start. I went with the 3/4 ribeye and the portion was Texas sized, of course. More than enough for me after a very long day. I ordered it medium rare and it came probably a little closer to rare than that, but I'll take under instead of over any time. It was a good steak, but not a great one. Maybe my expectations were too high or I was just a little unlucky, but to me it seemed very lean for a ribeye. If I were back in the area, I would give them a second chance. read more

We went on Saturday and waited a reasonable 20 minutes or so to be seated. While waiting we saw the special or a ribeye plus shrimp for 31.99 plus two sides. We thought well that sounds good. We were sat and waited for a bit for someone to take our drink order, then waited for the drink order to arrive. I asked what the soup of the day was and was told it was beef with veggies and beans. I asked of it was like taco soup. I was told no. The soup was terrible. It came with chips sticking out and had zero flavor. We did split the special. We asked for the steak to be cooked medium and it came out medium-rare. The grilled shrimp were pretty small and just not that great. The sides of okra and grilled vegetables missed the mark as well. Just no flavor or seasoning. I dont think we will visit again with other options that are better in town. The salad was the best thing we ate but was extra and not included with the special. I dont feel the $50 we paid for this meal was reasonable given the quality. read more

This is my second review. We decided to give this place a second try because of the four stars, and we thought maybe the first time we went. It was just a bad night... We went with barbecue, because this place is supposed to be famous for the barbecue, and it was probably the worst barbecue we've ever eaten. And my husband has eaten barbecue all over the country. He had ribs and ham that were visibly dry, so dry..... and they forgot the corn on the cob. I had a $35 steak that was cooked good however not worth the $35 and not flavorful. We won't be back- 2 tries - done. Really not sure what the hype is. read more

Looking for a steak in town .. we found this location. Yay! Parking lot is big but so is the restaurant. We had a 30 minute wait at 7.30pm and her estimate was perfect. Be prepped as there is not a lot of space to sit and wait. We ended up outside, and there is no intercom. She walked around looking for the next party. They were just straight up friendly here from the minute you walk in. The waitresses were hustling. The food took a little longer than expected. The queso had a good flavor though a little thin. My son loved his new york strip. The asparagus was a little overcooked. I went for the grilled chicken salad .. it was more than I could eat. They made their own dressing!!! One of us also had the chopped plate and said it was very smokey and the bbq sauce was good and tangy. Over all it was a really good experience. read more

Good quality and atmosphere without having to travel too far. Service is always friendly and prompt. Serving was plentiful. The only major downside this visit was the onion rings weren't piping hot and the rolls were not as hot as usual. Otherwise solid dining experience. read more

We have been going to Mesquite Pit for more than two years. The filet cuts are very good about 70% of the time, depending on when you order it. Grilled chicken salads are very good with large portions. Fried pickles and fried okra are very good. Turtle cheese cake and Chocolate French Silk pie is very good ( but proportions are inconsistent). Onion rings are very good. If you order take out be sure to check your order before leaving, especially if Autumn is working. Even after having to make another trip to get the brown rice that I ordered, she still gave us white rice. I have to subtract a star for incomplete takeout orders. read more

The Mesquite Pit is a nice place to go for some Texas Food! The menu is pretty standard and to be expected for your typical Texas BBQ joint...meat, meat, and more meat. The servers are always friendly. The atmosphere is great for families. There is always a wait...which is a good thing! They smoke so many of their meats right there...it's so fun to see the smoke billowing out of the smoker nearly every day! read more

All I can say is go here and get the Texas Akaushi Ribeye. It seriously might be the best steak I've ever had. I got it medium rare, seasoning was perfect, and the meat had a buttery feel to it without the butter finish like other steak places. Overall, I highly recommend. read more
