As soon as you walk in, you immediately get that high-class, well-taken-care-of feeling. The atmosphere is beautiful, but what really stood out to me was the level of attention and hospitality. From the beginning, we genuinely felt welcomed. I came here for a birthday dinner with a group, looking forward to some good food and drinks, and the experience honestly exceeded my expectations. It almost felt like the spotlight was on each individual person at our table. The staff made sure everyone felt taken care of without ever making it feel forced or overdone. And the cocktails? I kid you not, almost every drink came with its own special presentation, and they actually tasted just as good as they looked. The food portions were generous and great for sharing, the lighting gave the whole place a warm and intimate feel, and everything we ordered was juicy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly to our liking. I genuinely wish I had the stomach to try more entrées. One of the finishing touches for me was the host coming over to our table toward the end of the night just to make sure everyone was enjoying themselves and everything had gone well. It may seem like a small gesture, but it says a lot about how seriously they take the overall guest experience. Between the atmosphere, food, cocktails, presentation, and service, we had a great experience from beginning to end. I highly recommend giving this place a try, but don't just take my word for it..OBVIOUSLY. Pu read more

Perfect place for a GNO. My friends and I definitely enjoyed everything. Once we opened the door was enamored with the ambiance of the place just had great vibes and the song selections were amazing!

Took a while for us to get here, but we finally made it for an early Friday dinner. Mezcal is striking from the moment you enter. It's very dimly lit which adds to all the special effects provided during your meal. The bar has a lovely fire effect and is quite popular for "happy hour". Ambiance is NYC chic-it's a great vibe. Service was professional yet friendly with some good upselling if you are open to it.

I've been trying to come here forever. Always closed when I'm in the area. Finally snagged a reservation. We arrived for happy hour at the bar. If you want to drink come for happy hour. The jump in price from bar to table is astronomical. Our drinks were delicious in both areas. My meat was well cooked and flavorful. The fried ice cream was also delicious. The atmosphere here is cool and they have music playing. It was a great night out and I can't wait to return. read more

Finally took my wife on a date to Mezcal and it did not disappoint. Mezcal has been the talk of our town since it opened and I can definitely see why. The vibes and ambience take you right out of Old Bridge and throws you into a trendy NYC restaurant and bar. While Mezcal can be considered pricey, their flavors and offerings definitely lives up to the hype. We started with the beluga caviar tasting which was delicious and rich! Way better than the typical sturgeon caviar most restaurants serve. The oysters were also fresh and was served with delicious condiments. For our main entree we ordered the tomahawk for 2, with a side of corn and mashed potatoes. We loved that the steak was served with sea salt on the side that we can sprinkle on every bite. We finished our meal with flan and it was rich and decadent. It definitely put a dent in my wallet but we'll definitely be going back there soon to try their lobster risotto and other steak options! We're also excited to head back for their happy hour on Mondays! read more

Beautiful space, excellent Mexican food, and great service. My family brought me to Mezcal as a surprise, and we were all really impressed. From the moment you walk in, the restaurant makes a great first impression. The décor is beautiful and upscale, but still inviting and there are plenty of great spots for social media pictures. We started with a few lighter appetizers, but they ended up being more than enough. We shared three sets of tacos: the fish, pork, and short rib. Each order comes with two tacos, which makes them perfect for sharing and trying different flavors. The esquites were also really tasty and all paired very well. My daughter had a cheese quesadilla, which she absolutely loved. For drinks, I went with an Old Fashioned (my go to classic) while my wife ordered the "Clock It" mocktail. Both were solid choices. I also appreciated that they brought out boxed water for my daughter, which was a nice touch. What really stood out to me, though, was the service. Our waiter was attentive without being overbearing and made sure we were taken care of throughout the meal. There's also a fairly large bar right at the entrance, so you don't necessarily have to come here for a full meal. I could easily see Mezcal being a great date-night spot or a place to grab drinks and enjoy the atmosphere. There's also plenty of parking in the back, which is always a plus. Overall, I'd definitely come back. Next time, I want to try some of the main dishes. It's a higher-end restaurant, so expect the prices to reflect that, but between the food, atmosphere, service, and presentation, I thought it was well worth the experience. read more

Hands down, one of the best dining experiences I've had in New Jersey. From the moment you walk in, the ambiance is incredible, beautiful, energetic, and completely immersive. The entire staff was friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable, and the hospitality made the night even more memorable. The food was excellent from beginning to end, the cocktails were creative and beautifully presented, and every detail felt thoughtfully executed. Between the atmosphere, the food, the drinks, and the service, Mezcal delivered the complete experience. We had an incredible night and will definitely be back. Highly recommended. -- Jeffrey Umaña @jeffrey.umana read more

Father's Day a day earlier and fortunate to have reservations at the trendy "New York vibe" Mezcal. Modern Mexican steakhouse with fish entrees. Lily T was our server and she was great especially as we had a 3 year old and she took pictures all evening. Appetizers were great and so were entrees (skirt steak could be seasoned a bit more) Entering was an experience and the décor inside was awesome. Appetizers hand cut fries, roasted carrots, guacamole. Main course Halibut which was amazing, salmon also very good. Jumbo crab cake great. Skirt steak only a bit off from my son in NY (this is a steakhouse) Drinks served really cool especially water for our grandson. Worth a return for certain read more

Great drinks, food, and fun! We had a reserved table for 6, and parking was easy across the street in a business lot after hours. Inside is gorgeous and feels like a club, with a nice lobby, beautiful interior, and a live DJ playing great music. The DJ was so good we actually asked if people dance, but our server said it wasn't really that kind of place. Honestly, it's rude for the music to be that good then. Service was excellent. Drinks and waters were refilled all night. My favorite cocktail was For The Gram. It was very balanced and came with a sage joint. Soon To Be Famous was good too but it was sweeter than I usually like. The Spanish Octopus starter was tender, perfectly cooked, and delicious. For my meal, I had the Mezcal Mixed Greens Salad with my choice of Salmon, and both were really tasty. Dessert was a tall Coconut cake and Fried Ice Cream with toasted coconut flakes. Both were good, but I wanted the coconut cake to taste more coconutty. NOTES/TIPS: **Limited parking, can park across the street after in the evening. **Wheelchair-accessible. Clean restrooms. read more

My husband and I love going to the sister restaurant 618 and finally were able to snag a reservation for Mezcal. The indoor decor is like a modern lounge and the bar is impressive with the wrap around fire. We were seated at a small table for 2 near the bar. I wish there was a bit more clearance area between the bar and our table. As when there is a large group standing around the bar and being rowdy, it almost feels like they are on top of you and bumping into your chair. We ordered the no bullshit drink which they light on fire and it was quite a show. It was the perfect balance of spicy and sweet. The appetizer we decided on was the seasonal ceviche and honestly we were very disappointed. Not only was the portion size small (done in 2 large bites), it was lacking flavor. I think it needed more salt as well as citrus tang. I think a big factor was that the mango inside the ceviche wasn't ripe. We decided to go all out on the entree and got the Tomahawk steak for 2 Oaxacan style. This dish also came out on fire, I feel like there's a theme here with fire, haha. Our favorite dipping sauce that accompanies the dish was the homemade chimichurri sauce. My husband was a huge fan on the street corn while I loved the creamy mashed potatoes. My only concern was that our steak had a lot of tendon in this particular cut. This meant about a 1/4 of the steak was inedible and chewy. I was a bit upset over this because based on the price you would assume you would receive the best cut of meat and be able to eat the whole thing. We were celebrating a birthday and the waiter brought out a ice-cream cupcake free of charge. My favorite part was that he didn't make the restaurant sing happy birthday. He just handed us the cupcake, said happy birthday, and went on his merry way. It seems this restaurant wants to put a wow factor on their dishes for social media and influencers. Many items come out on fire, are revealed from lanterns, have dry ice on them, just presentation decisions meant for taking pictures or videos and posting. As the service was amazing and on point we will return to try out happy hour. read more

Wow! What an amazing place. As soon as you walk in the doors, you are greeted by some very friendly hostesses . There is a fairly large sit down bar located to the left of the entrance with table's surrounding each side, which opens to a larger dining area. They really took their time to tastefully decorate this establishment ( beautiful). . We had the pleasure of having Lily as our waitress a lovely young lady, very attentive and made great suggestions with some of the menu items as well as cocktail choices we were looking at . We started off with two Pyro shots, Tequila D's Nuts and for The Gram ( delicious) they all came out with special effects which was a cool ! We decided to go with all appetizers to give several menu items a try . The caviar was superb and the Peruvian Sashimi is definitely a must try that cream sauce they pour onto it was absolutely delicious. Grilled octopus was good ( could have been charred a tad more ) but the sauces that accompanied it complimented it well . The beef tartar had great flavor and creaminess from the egg pulled it all together. The Short Rib tacos were good but missing something ( maybe a salsa verde ) the pickled onions gave it a boost . We also tried the Mexican salad which the dressing was good but it could have used that char to the lettuce. All in all our appetizers were exceptionally good ! Since it was my sister's bday we ended the night with the Churros which were tasty but would have preferred the ice cream on the side so we could enjoy the crispy churros! It was truly a great experience here and I would definitely come back ! Thank you all for an exceptional experience and to Lily for being such a great addition in serving us for our sister date ! read more

Wow this place is great. No wonder it's so hard to get a reservation! They go all out on presentation...lots of wow factors. But that doesn't mean they skimped on the quality of the food. We all really enjoyed everything we had. I especially liked the Lobster paella risotto, the cauliflower tacos, and the guacamole. The lobster risotto was plentiful with 2 lobster tails. Cocktails are fantastic, lots of great options. I had the El Jefe and I have to say it's one of the best margaritas I've ever had. We really liked the clever Ferrero Rocher dessert martini which was served in a chocolate bunny....drink your martini then eat it! What a perfect dessert drink. Service here was phenomenal. We had a wonderful server who was very knowledgeable and helpful.

Mezcal is a vibe, as the kids would say. It's buzzing and bustling, and for a minute, I wasn't sure whether I was at Old Bridge, NJ, or a happening Midtown spot. We went in around 8 p.m. without reservations, and the earliest table was available at 9:30 p.m. The bar (it is huge) was full, but we snagged two seats within half an hour. They had Happy Hour on when we went (8-10 on Mondays), which explained the crowd, although it looked like this place was as always busy. We ordered some drinks and bites off the HH menu - the drinks we tried (Margarita and Pistachio Martini were good, albeit a tad too sweet). Their complimentary chips (fried in beef tallow) were a nice touch. The fish (halibut) tacos were great, and esquites were okay, a bit too much dressing for my liking. We only ordered the skirt steak and whipped potatoes for the main course - and this was what really disappointed. The steak (medium rare) was really chewy, and the two of us didn't finish it. I'm not sure we let it sit out too long, but a steak house not getting pricey steak right isn't a good look. We went way past closing time, and our bartender took forever to give us our check, and never came back for it. Another bartender took care of it much later, after many attempts of trying to flag someone down. I understand the long hours and the various tasks that need attending at closing time, but leaving customers unattended for this long felt very frustrating. Overall - amazing ambience, good drinks, promising food, and service that left us wanting - I might try Mezcal again to give them another shot, but this night failed to leave a mark on me. read more

If you want an incredible dining experience, come to Mezcal. From the moment we walked in, to the moment we walked out, everything was outstanding! We were individually greeted and each of our 4 party members had their hand shaken with sincere eye contact. Our server was incredibly knowledgeable of the menu, and gave awesome suggestions for food and drinks. She truly enhanced the experience. The food was amazing! The steaks were cooked perfectly and the sides were to die for. A special shout out to the street corn starter - this is a must. The interior was beautifully decorated and the music was at the perfect volume. You could have a conversation without shouting while still hearing the background music. The bar area with fire around the counter was super dope. You could spend a decent amount of money here, but it would be totally worth it. Make sure you get on over here and try it. 10/10 read more

The space is beautiful, a great spot for a date night. Our drinks came promptly, and with a little showmanship. Everything is fresh and well presented. A little bit over priced, but you're paying for the experience. What I really didn't like about the night was our service. Our server (I believe his name was Kevin?) was aloof and disinterested and frequently didnt come check in with us, especially with there being a long wait between our drinks and the food arriving. Ig didnt seem like he was that way with other patrons either. read more

Popped into Mezcal for surprise bday dinner and the staff were so accommodating to our shenanigans. They made this review a 4 stars. We went crazy and ordered family style. We ordered Queso Fundido, Braised Citrus Pork Tacos, Short Rib Tacos, Achiote Fish tacos, Filet Mignon, Halibut, and Lobster Paella Risotto!! Everything was pretty good. My favorites were definitely the queso fundido and the halibut. All the flavors on the halibut dish paired soooo well together. I didn't care for the Risotto or most of the tacos though. Most of the group thought the food wasn't that great for the price and flavors. It was a really expensive dinner but overall felt worth it for the occasion. The vibe inside was fun too. Thanks again to the wonderful staff! read more

Where do I start! We came here to celebrate a friend's birthday. There is parking available behind the restaurant. You walk into this beautiful hallway that leads to the bar. This place is beautiful the aesthetics is outstanding. We were a party of six and our server was amazing explained everything from the drinks to the food items. We started off with a cosmo each and ordered 2 appetizers the guac and the octopus, both were very good. For the main we got the porterhouse and the lobster paella risotto with 4 different sides to share. Had another round of drinks and some green tea shots. They brought a cake and sang happy birthday. Now time for the bill!!!! Granted I did know this place was more of an upscale place and we have done that before. When we opened the check and saw the bill it was over $800 WOW without the tip. All in all I might just come back for the food too expensive to drink here. Good couples spot not for larger groups. read more

Mezcal was such a fun experience from the moment we walked in. The entrance alone sets the tone- sexy, beautiful, warm, and inviting. Our waiter, Keelyn, knew the menu, he was upbeat, attentive, and added great energy to the night. The table for two was a little small, so ordering multiple dishes felt tight, but the food made up for it! My first time having caviar. It was excellent- I didn't have any comparison but now this set the bar. The drinks were amazing throughout the night and we also ordered the octopus which was perfectly grilled with great texture; a few pieces leaned salty, but overall deliciousss. We ordered the porterhouse medium. I stayed mostly with the pink center pieces since my husband prefers well done. One piece was a bit chewy for me but I grabbed from a few other places- all fantastic! My husband's cuts "melted in his mouth" and the filet side truly was buttery and tender. As I'm writing my salivary glands just activated lol: The potatoes were hot, crispy, rich, and decadent. I even made a nice potato, steak and eggs the next morning from the left-overs . But wait... can't drop this mic without talking about the flan... hands down the BEST flan I've ever had (and I have a Dominican aunt), so that says a lot. Here's really what I loved... We were celebrating our anniversary and received a beautifully handwritten scroll at the table, which was such a thoughtful touch. It's details like that that separate this group from many restaurants in the area. The hospitality feels elevated... very much new-age fine dining where the experience matters just as much as the food. To end the night, another waiter saw us struggling to take a photo and stepped in to help. Small gesture but it's things like this that make up the 5 star experience. Expect to spend some money too- overall just the two of us spent close to $500 including tip but we ate and drank well! We'll definitely be back :-) read more

AbsoFREAKIN-LUTELY worth the wait! Hubbae and I are always on the hunt for a new dining experience to commemorate our biweekly date nights, and Mezcal has been on our short list for months. Getting a reservation was no easy feat, but when a spot opened up on Halloween, we pounced. From the moment we stepped inside, the vibes were immaculate: sultry ambience, upscale-but-not-too-fussy décor, and a bar area featuring this wild contraption that runs along a track from end to end like a chain of vaporized flames. That was hands down my favorite decorative feature. Now, let's talk menus. There's the main menu, the prix fixe "Día de los Muertos" menu (available Oct 24-Nov 10), the specials, the drinks, and the dessert menu. Choices for days! I went classic and ordered from the standard menu: crab cakes to start and the lobster "paella" risotto as my main: both absolute winners. Drinks? Their tequila-based Old Fashioned is a must-try. Smooth, smoky, and dangerously sippable. Dessert? Don't even think twice; get the double churros topped with three scoops of gelato and a cloud of whipped cream. It's indulgent, shareable (if you must), and worth every last calorie. I could've easily taken that dessert down solo because, let's be honest, dessert always has a place in my tummy. Service was top-notch. Our server, Stephanie, was attentive, warm, and made sure our date night felt extra special. I'd happily tip her well over 20%. From start to finish, everything about the experience exceeded my expectations. Cheers to management for running a tight ship and to the Mezcal team for delivering an unforgettable evening. Next time, I'm aiming for Cinco de Mayo... if I can snag a reservation, that is. read more

I've watched this place go up from the ground up, and now that it's finally open (and all over my social media), I had to check it out! I snagged a Sunday reservation right at opening time and wow, wow, wow! The place is absolutely stunning. Every corner is so aesthetic and picture-perfect, and it filled up within minutes. Our waiter, Keilan, was phenomenal from start to finish. He made spot-on recommendations, and honestly, every single dish was incredible, each one somehow topping the last. My bestie and I started with the "No Bullshit" drink (made for two), which comes with a fun little show,and it was delicious! For appetizers, we had the grilled octopus, which was perfectly cooked and full of flavor. For my main, I ordered the skirt steak with mac and cheese and esquites on the side, everything was phenomenal. The steak was tender and juicy, and the sides were just chef's kiss. We couldn't resist a second drink, this time I had the "Soon to Be Famous" which had a fun cup and tasted amazing. My bestie got the soon to be famous which came with a fun presentation. To end on a sweet note, we shared the flan, and OMG, it was thick, rich, and absolutely divine. Overall, 100/10! I'm obsessed with this place and can't wait to come back with my husband, friends, and family. read more

After months of trying, I finally scored a reservation at Mezcal for date night, and it was absolutely worth the wait!

The interior decor is stunning, and the atmosphere hits that perfect balance of upscale and comfortable. The staff was attentive and friendly from start to finish. The menu was just right!!!! Not too long, not too short, but with plenty of tempting options. I ordered the cornflake-crusted halibut served over jasmine rice with corn and a side of asparagus. It was sooo freakin' delicious! We also tried both of their Old Fashioned, one bourbon, one tequila and both were perfectly crafted. For dessert, we shared the churros with vanilla gelato, cinnamon, and chocolate. It was even better than expected! By the time we finished, I was so full they could've rolled me out. Mezcal absolutely did not disappoint, and I'll definitely be back. Highly recommend! read more

We recently had our wedding anniversary at Mezcal. The service, atmosphere and overall friendliness of the staff was top notch. The food at the price left a little bit to be desired. However thanks to our gracious and thoughtful server Sam, it was still a memorable experience and we will be back someday. The maitre'd offered so we had a quick tour of the restaurant before sitting down. A very cancun-y resort feeling came over us but in a good way. Mezcal is upscale and it reminded me of the nice scenes we've seen in Mexico. It definitely wasn't a cheap tex mex type of place... though we like those too. The first thing we got was tortilla chips. Our waitress Sam told us they were made with beef tallow to make it a little healthier. I chowed down but the chips were a little stale. Not fresh made and still piping hot like at our favorite Mexican restaurants. The next was the fuego sol mocktail. Very sour yet tasty. It was a winner. We shared it. They were thoughtful enough to give 2 straws. Next, skirt steak tacos. They were pretty good. Accompanied with red onions and avocado and tasty steak. Whether it was worth the $25 price tag for 2 tacos is up to the diner. I didn't think so. We then had the octopus appetizer. Also not great. The tentacle was slightly small and a little bit burned. The accompanying potatos were excellent however. Not worth $33. Next was our main, the porterhouse for 2. We ordered it medium rare but it unfortunately came out medium to medium well. It was good quality meat though. It was unfortunate that most of the filet mignon was well done. We ordered the steak with the delicious chimmichurri sauce and a side of butter whipped potatoes. That potato side was my favorite part of the meal. The portion was big and it was delicious. It was a good value at 13 bucks. The dessert was a ginormous dish of gelato stuffed churros for 2. It was really good. The churros were warm and delicious and the yummy ice cream on top made for a delicious a la mode treat. As mentioned, Sam was a perfect server. She checked on us, was friendly and upbeat, and was informative and patient when we placed orders. read more

We had a phenomenal night at Mezcal. The decor set the tone right away, and we kicked things off with two cocktails that were both delicious and beautifully presented. For appetizers, we went all in with the lobster bao buns, oysters, and short rib arepas, and every single one was a hit. The short rib arepas were packed with flavor, the oysters were fresh and magnificent, and the lobster bao buns were just as good. Honestly, the appetizers alone could've made the meal. For entrees, we ordered the lobster risotto and the spinalis steak, and both were excellent. The steak came with a cowboy butter that took it to another level, and we ended up with so many leftovers that we had a great lunch the next day. We didn't think we had room for dessert, but we split the espresso martinis with cold foam and an order of churros for two anyway, and they didn't disappoint. Everything about this meal was great from start to finish, and I'd recommend Mezcal to anyone looking for a fun night out with food that actually delivers. read more

Food was a little pricey but really good, drinks hit the spot, and the bar setup overall was just solid.

An upscale dining experience. A large venue with its own parking lot. From the exterior to the bathrooms, every thing about this place has a modern trendy vibe with a Mexican theme. Definitely would be out of place dressed down here. Staff were extremely friendly and fun, very charismatic. The food was amazing. It's a pricey place, but you absolutely pay for what you get. This place is all about the experience. There was a DJ who played a great mix of music & the volume was not loud at all. A good volume, but we could still have a normal casual conversation. Food wise we had For The Gram, ¡No Manches!, Papas A La Mezcal, Esquites, Roasted Heirloom Carrots, & 10oz Skirt Steak. The stand outs were 'For The Gram' & '¡No Manches!' which are both specialty drinks from their drink menu, the Esquites which is a spin on Elote off of the cob, & the absolute winner was the Papas A La Mezcal. If all I had gotten was that I would have been completely satisfied. The flavor blend and texture blend was perfection. The skirt steak, to which I added 'Cowboy Butter,' perfect!! Overall this place is worth a visit for a nice Date night or Anniversary.
